It's ok but it's no I Wanna Be Adored, poor in comparison.
Yeah. I don't skip it, but it's middle of the pack on that album.

Hopefully this will all lead to insults and people storming off in a huff!

The Stone Roses song is brilliant. One of the best riffs of its era.
Waterfall is an absolute classic.
Just because Bowie did the other song (far from classic Bowie) doesn’t automatically make it better. How many voters haven’t heard the Roses track?

TBH I thought you meant that Oasis song Wonderwall or whatever so I decided I needed to educate myself.

This one is awful too but in a different way.

Well I love both, MD is one of my favourite Bowie songs. I get that Waterfall mightn't be everyone's cup of tea but no way is it awful.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I still maintain Outside Tokyo is one fine song, if you haven't heard it listen to it.

The only reason to dislike Waterfall is that without Waterfall there would be no Wonderwall!

It's not bad but a bit dull. Brown bopping like he's shat himself.

I don't find it dull, I love the hypnotic groove and the melody/harmony.

Bear in mind what the band and audience were on 😉

Throw Rag has a song called "The Beast in Me'
We reach the parts other combos cannot reach
We beach the beachheads other armies cannot beach
We speak the tongues other mouths cannot speak
