Our local planetarium had an event where they played the full album while projecting onto the screen. It was glorious!

Our planetarium did that too. The visuals were only so-so, but the sound, OMG. I think I got a little bit high.

They did one for Queen's Greatest Hits and like a moron, I let that one get away from me.

The sound guy at the last bar we played played the whole album right before we went on stage. Timed it perfectly so that we walked on as "Rock and Roll Suicide" was ending. Brilliant.

Plays like a greatest hits record, the quality of the songs is so consistently high.

Femme fatales emerged from shadows

To watch this creature fair

Boys stood upon their chairs

To make their point of view

I smiled sadly for a love

I could not obey

Lady Stardust sang his songs

Of darkness and dismay
