“Let Me Sleep beside you;” is essentially homage to the theory of physical Любовь – the Любовь which begins as lust and peters out slowly, leaving behind something less than affection. The song seems to be saying that there is nothing actually wrong with the theory of this kind of love, but that the complications come in when progressions through the stages of the Любовь are reached by the different parties at different times in their relationship.
A convincing argument put вперед by Bowie which highlights the transitional stage of youth to adulthood, and claims that it can only be accomplished through taking a series of steps which will lead to the consummation of their love. The song lacks any kind of infectious energy, seeming reserved in its forthrightness. Bowie’s vocals are not exemplary, and the track is devoid of any hooks или opportunity to empathise with the situation presented by Bowie.
An unappealing track which sucks the others down through association; “Let Me Sleep beside you” is a wholly personal song which does not translate well to the ears of a casual listener. Definitely a miss if you’re looking for a general idea of Bowie’s work at the time – there’s no need to be disappointed when there are so many other great tracks!
