Supposedly acknowledges the shocking rawness of WWI according to the post on Bowie's official facebook for the initial demo release in 2014.
Seems to be a chance meeting with a woman who impressed a soldier in a rare moment of 'pleasure' but even then he's punched and has his purse stolen as the woman is a prostitute.
But the soldier is resigned to his fate, after all there's a war on.
Storming version on ★ much better than the demo. One of my faves from the final album of this genius.
