Had to get that off my chest.

I remember thinking that years ago and your post reminded me of that site.

Yeah, why the hell didn't they use Velvet Goldmine or Sweet Head instead? It Ain't Easy is annoying. I'd rather go from Starman to Lady Stardust without having to subject myself to that song in between.

Velvet Goldmine is one of his best songs from that period.  I never understood why it was relegated to just a b-side.

Why not burn a cd without it or alter the playlist to exclude it then?  I do the same with Fitter, Happier on Ok Computer as I can't stand that track.

That's what I do, but I still feel compelled to complain about it.
