Unfortunately, the shallowness lurking behind "Golden Years" and "Stay" finally catches up with Bowie on the last cut, "Wild As The Wind," which has to be one of the most vacuous numbers he has ever penned. Even Bowie's new idol, Frank Sinatra, might think twice before crooning, "For we're creatures of the wind/Wild as the wind? I hear the sound of mandolins..." Let's pray it doesn't become his swan song...
...pacifist, but in context is saying simply that mob warfare is a poor atmosphere in which to conduct the business of gambing and numbers-running. Upon his release from prison, "He tried to find a way back in/To the life he'd left behind," but this is not Frank Sinatra coming back to Brooklyn after the service, looking for his finance and his old crowd: Joey, Joey, what made them want to come and blow you away?" moan Dylan and Emmylou Harris in the chorus.

One of the most innovative designers is Paula Johnson, who has turned one customer's fingernails into a handful of cards (a full house). Manicurist Dyan Hill, who had five years of art school, recently deployed a Chinese dragon in turquoise, gold, orange, lime green and fuchsia...
...school she felt trapped. "My whole body felt like it was on fire, like every pore was open and there was glass tubing in it." She listened to Coltrane and Sinatra, and invented daydreams about Arthur Rimbaud, the French mystical poet, whose portrait reminded her of Dylan. For several years she was a Jehovah's Witness; later she dipped into Oriental religions. As a teenager, she drew furiously, then turned to calligraphy and finally to poetry.
