    Lyrics:
    Let's say goodbye till tomorrow
    With a word sincere
    How do you make it through the night?
    I hope to God you're still here, I pray Olé
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    I pray Olé
    It's a God eat God world, it's a dog's tomorrow
    And the song and the wind
    Brings nothing but sorrow
    I pray Olé, I pray Olé, I pray Olé
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make, can you make it through?
    Can you make it?

    A Bowie song I haven't heard yet from one of my favorite albums. I will cherish these next few minutes.

      @@Soslanman1for me it’s not best, but it’s absolutely on the same level as Low and Heroes.. Growing up in the aughts, discovering Bowie as a teen, critics seemed to think it was a very spotty album compared to Low/Heroes. I always liked it when I was younger, but it took me years to fully appreciate it, and I now love it as a masterpiece..
      While I can still understand where those criticisms come from (it’s more eclectic, less cohesive, feels like a collection of songs/not an album, etc), I don’t think the actual quality of the music is in any way inferior, and I don’t think eclectic necessarily means no cohesion. It just has a very different flow from the other two.

      Sorry. This was not recorded during the Eno sessions. Late 80’s , early 90’s to improve rykodisc sales of box sets.

      @@dhowellbassist Well, that's only half the story. The initial vestiges of it started in the Lodger sessions, but it remained a demo until being fleshed out in the late '80s for inclusion on the Rykodisc reissues, as was the case with most of the other bonus tracks included on their CDs (when they weren't simply using preexisting rarities like non-album singles); the only wholly new bonus track was a 1988 re-recording of "Look Back in Anger" made as an experiment in moving Bowie out of the pop rock sound he had leaned into.
      It wasn't really made for "box sets" either; it was for a series of reissues of individual albums, done after Bowie regained the rights to his 1969-1980 albums in 1988. Bowie was openly dissatisfied with the variable quality of RCA Records' earlier CD releases, which were done without his approval (and by at least one engineer's admission were rushed jobs), and saw Rykodisc as a way to mitigate that (ironically, the best-quality RCA CDs are nowadays considered better than Ryko's remasters, but that's besides the point).
      The one box set that did come out from the Rykodisc campaign was Sound + Vision in 1989 as an inaugural release; while it also had its share of previously unreleased tracks, they were different from the bonus tracks included on individual albums. Ryko did release a Sound + Vision-themed storage box for collectors to house the full series of album reissues, but they didn't put out any actual box sets after that first 1989 release.

    Meh. Pales in comparison to the rest of the albums. Lodger was a unique gem in Bowie's catalog. Every song had its own planet. This doesn't even sound as if it came from the same sessions or same frame of mind Bowie was in at the time. Like its some random song they had laying around and decided to throw it on the reissue as an unreleased track.

      This was recorded in the late 80s or early 90’s with Reeves Gabriel’s. It was a marketing stunt by ryko-disc. Nothing about this fits the Lodger soundscape.

      My Mother bought this album. I don't remember her playing more than once. Ziggy Stardust era stomps all over this. Consider how much Ska stuff was coming out at this time as well like really pukka stuff and New Romantics was just around the U bend.

      @@TheFusedplugthis was not on Lodger originally, nor even from the same recording sessions, or finished in the same decade.. I don’t think people commenting that this isn’t good is equivalent to saying the rest of Lodger is no good, though your comment seems to imply that.
      Just saying, this is crap compared to the rest of Lodger, which you don’t have to like, but it’s just like, your opinion, dude. A lot of Bowie fans prefer this period to the Ziggy period, but THIS song is not remotely representative of his music in the late 70s/early 80s.. ✌️
