It was recorded shortly after the completion of The Man Who Sold the World , in the perceived absence of a clear single from that album. Like Bowie s two previous singles, it sold poorly and failed to chart. At the time Marc Bolan s T.Rex band Tyrannosaurus Rex was a significant source of inspiration for Bowie. On this track, according to NME editors Roy Carr and Charles Shaar Murray , Bolan s influence is so much in the ascendant that it virtually amounts to a case of demonic possession . ref name Bowie An Illustrated Record Roy Carr & Charles Shaar Murray 1981 .
