      @@ilikejelloyay208 If you've ever done any DJ'ing, multitrack mixing, etc, it's intimidating how much skill it takes to make mashups that sound good. People have had whole DJ careers doing a worse (and less creative) job than Mr. McClintock... and I agree, he is only improving.

      When I laughed before it was because of awkwardness and the clash of the songs, but nowadays I laugh in disbelief. Long live Bill and his amazing ears.

    I hated it when Trent Reznor left the Ohio Players - rumours has it, he and Bowie didn't get along too well with each other. Two strong characters in one band I guess. But dang, listen to that, together they sounded so fine!

      I read in the National Inquirer, the breakup was due to a clash of the outfits…Reznor refused to wear the flashy outfits any longer and wanted more of the blackest of black…so he left Ohio Players bc they were to colorful and he refused to wear sequins! You know the National Inquirer doesn’t lie! Beautifully done Master of Mash-ups! 🥰⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

      Nope, Carlos Alomar came up with the riff, which was intended to be used on a different song (a cover that Bowie was doing). John Lennon was hanging out with Bowie and was sing “aim” over the riff, which Bowie thought was “fame”. Bowie and Lennon went on to write the rest of the song.
