The title song of David Bowie's 'Young Americans' is one of his handful of classics, a bizarre mixture of social comment, run-on lyric style, English pop and American soul.

Sly Stone doesn't make good albums: only good records. His style is so infinite and revolves around so many crucial aspects that it has only come together perfectly on a handful of his singles.

Bowie is probably my favorite all-around songwriter and performer and personality. His ability to change over the years is such an inspiration. I love 'Young Americans' and 'Fame.'

The press will naturally come and go as it has done with all artists, from David Bowie to Neil Young to U2.

They are young, they are affluent, and they want American products.

1920 was an auspicious year for a young person to enter the world as an American citizen.
