wow.  lots of negative comments.  I have always loved this song. There is just something about it .... sha la la la la
This song deserves 1 with no doubts.
Two heroes of mine making awful music. I know it was the 80's but......Not a bad movie if I remember rightly. Yes, Sucko-barfo.

Metheney (and Mays?) are wasted on this. Sucko-barfo.
  yup, sucko-barfo.

Haven't heard this in ages - very haunting.
Great song! Great artist!

I'm in the opposing camp.
I detect a tad bit of lyric-o-phobia.. my how thin your skin... wonder how you process
T. Nuggent talkin about rounding up anyone he dislikes politically and putting an arrow through them ?
Goes both ways. . .. . Teddy has the Kool-aide running from his ears.
A far better movie than title track song.
rarely do I find such disgust at music... but I have NEVER liked this song.. its a light pop-ish sickningly sweet sounding filth that I'd not line a puppy's cage with as its not even good enough for puppy sh*t.. and not the firm stuff either... its not even good enough for that icky brown gelatinous gook puppies put out their first few times.. never never never wanna hear this ever again!!
These guys would work again together, fine fine piece of work. Good flick to.
No, this is a fine song. Poignant lyrics and arrangement in this title track to a worthy film. Bowie lends the right timbre here. It isn\'t Diamond Dogs, Ziggy, or even Heathen, but it fits nicely into his career without being a blemish.
