"Quicksand" is one of my favorite Bowie songs, a highlight from 1971's "Hunky Dory," an album full of highlights. Read about it here. And while the album version is lush and gorgeous, this simple, stripped-down demo version is pretty damn cool as well.
Such a great song. Like a Tootsie pop - took quite a few licks to get to the center, but once you get there it sticks to your teeth. Wait, that metaphor kinda went nuts... hopefully you get the idea.
