When I hear the studio version of this I hear echos of Bowie, when Pitchfork listens, they hear Motown.
I can’t say that I’m with them on that.

6/8, horns… I can sort of hear it, especially if you’re sn indie-rock reviewer who doesn’t actually listen to a lot of Motown. Guy definitely trying to sing like Bowie.
