so were to begin..i've reading up alot of interesting atricles saying that the man who sold the world has occult references..i mean mostly in the lyrics..i know that the width of a circle..has some crowley references..does not anyone know the others?..i love album..becuases its somewhat surreal/borderline schizo/and well its rocks....wow i'm pretty dizzy.

did we ever finish the Survivor for this?

Bowie is an occultist, most of his work has some occult significance.

I think the song is about a character from a book though

I think we kicked about 5 songs from TMWSTW. Anything else after that up to Let's Dance deserves to stay, so I'd say we're finished!

I still wanna go through his 70's albums. Maybe I'll start a Hunky Dory thread.
