any version of this song that doesn’t feature Bowie/Jagger visuals shot in a single take at 3:00am is the inferior version, in my opinion.

semi-random: it feels like it would be hard to do a down-tempo version of "Dancing in the Street". Can't really sound sad while singing about people dancing in the streets
