Add Your New Review About The Song The Reviews about Candidate (page 1/1) ------ performed by David Bowie Candidate,diamond dogs, david bowie | Reviewer: RiRI | 2/6/2006 i believe diamond dogs is one of the best bowie albums ever made, and candidate is one of the best songs on it. the subjectmatter is that of the rise of the "candidate" through unsound methods,(eg masks) for an unsuitable person. this fits into the albums "story" that of the rise and existance of "the party" from george orwell's brilliant book, 1984(read this or drill your fingers off). the music itsself is very good, with the millitaristic drumming adding to the theme, and the low, dark guitar doing the same. 85/100 Is this review helpful to you?     Yes      No Add Your New Review About The Song
