abstract	%22Oh! You Pretty Things%22 is a song written by David Bowie in 1971 for the album Hunky Dory. It opens with only piano and Bowie's vocal, before entering the catchy refrain. The simple piano style is often compared to The Beatles' %22Martha My Dear%22. Thematically, the song has been seen as reflecting the influence of occultist Aleister Crowley and philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, and heralding %22the impending obsolescence of the human race in favour of an alliance between arriving aliens and the youth of the present society%22.The song was first released by Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits, in a single on which Bowie played piano. It became a #12 hit in mid-1971. Noone replaced Bowie's line %22The Earth is a bitch%22 with %22The Earth is a beast%22, in a performance that NME editors Roy Carr and Charles Shaar Murray opined to be %22one of rock and roll's most outstanding examples of a singer failing to achieve any degree of empathy whatsoever with the mood and content of a lyric%22.
