David Bowie - Watch That Man download song

Everybody tried a lot of something nice.... No one took their eyes off Lorraine! God bless, the bass guitar just smokes on this song too. Great stuff. Hope you are all enjoying it as much as meeeeee.........:)

What an impossibly meteoric human being

I've always thought Mick Ronson truly deserved far, far more credit to the success and the legacy of what was created , than it got. While Bowie had the vision and creativity, Ronno's glue, made for me, at least some of the most memorable music Iv'e ever heard, especially this one. R.I.P. Trailblazers.

Such a great kickoff to this album

Shakey threw a party that lasted all night Everybody drank a lot of something nice There was an old fashioned band of married men Looking up to me for encouragement - it was so-so The ladies looked bad but the music was sad No one took their eyes off Lorraine She shimmered and she strolled like a Chicago moll Her feathers looked better and better - it was so-so Yea! it was time to unfreeze When the Reverend Alabaster danced on his knees Slam! so it wasn't a game Cracking all the mirrors in shame [CHORUS] Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon Watch that man! Oh honey, watch that man He walks like a jerk But he's only taking care of the room Must be in tune A Benny Goodman fan painted holes in his hands So Shakey hung him up to dry The pundits were joking the manholes were smoking And every bottle battled with the reason why The girl on the phone wouldn't leave me alone A throw back from someone's LP A lemon in a bag played the Tiger Rag And the bodies on the screen stopped bleeding Yeah! I was shaking like a leaf For I couldn't understand the conversation Yeah! I ran to the street, looking for information [CHORUS] Watch that man [repeat ad inf.]

This guy called Bowie had it all and then more I shed a tear when the news came out and said that he had died ,there is not to many greats left but Bowie was up there ,Sad .

This album will always be special to me as it was my first album experience. Nothing quite like reliving the moment this song burst through my headphones a few years ago and the rest of the album followed of course. There will never be another like him

one of bowies best in my opinion

As I listen to "Watch That Man", I keep expecting to hear; "....As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent....".Cracked Actor gives me similar flashbacks to Diamond Dogs tunes, which was my first, and still favorite Bowie album I ever discovered as a kid.

Does any song exude more coolness and swagger? Anyone would seem cool walking down the street to this song.

greatest solo artist ever.RIP David,you've gone to the seat with the clearest view.

The Spiders could play.

You need to remember the time period when this was recorded and mixed. It was a "coke" session. Up is louder. Worked on many of them. Some mixers actually had the good manners to return the next day and listen again-sober. And the re-mixing begins....

Bowie was one of the only musicians who could make a song with utter nonsense lyrics sound freakin' amazing. RIP, David. You are dearly missed.

Bowie and Ronson were amazing. I was only 1 when this was released so didn't get the chance to boogie with Lorraine who looked like a Chicago moll. I love that whole Bowie/Warhol/Edie Segwick decadence of the time....amazing

Brilliant album and a great artiste who will be greatly missed.
