One of my favourites from the legend that was Bowie.
And for something more recognisable this one’s always worth a closer listen. The lyrics are quite something. Bowies cocaine period.
BTW I reckon David Sanborn’s sax work on this is as iconic as the line on Gerry Rafferty’s Baker St -

Had to post this now. When it comes to classic one hit wonders this takes the cake
Back the late 80s I saw a band in a West London pub by chance that happened to be Raphael Ravenscroft. The blower of the classic sax line.
I can’t accept that as a one hit wonder when he sung “ Stuck in the Middle with you” ( admittedly with different band members )

@MN5 as you say. Different band. But I guess you have a point.
We started a thread for one hit wonders but fuck it I’ll chuck this here.
Same era and WAY more of a OHW than the above

We've had this discussion before. "Right Down the Line" is also a popular GR song on the same album as "Baker Street".

Baker Street never made no.1, while this song was no.1 in one of the Billboard charts.

I had to look that up. The “Adult Contemporary “ chart.
That’s weak. -

Upgraded the music system with a new streamer - huge difference. This came up. Awesome production.

@MN5 Leaving aside the fact that they had a gazillion hits in the Netherlands and elsewhere you are ignoring
which was actually there biggest hit reaching the Billboard Top 10 in the early 80's
I was living in southern NL at the time. It was incessant.

I stand corrected…….sort of…….
Google confirms these guys have been prolific but ask your average person on the street to name a second song of theirs and they’ll very likely stare blankly.

Really ? It’s a song that everyone knows I would have thought even if they don’t know the name of the band.
