pop songs. Biographers have singled out the final track on "Heroes", "The Secret Life of Arabia", in particular, as a precursor to what Bowie would explore on Lodger, both musically and thematically. After the ominousness of Low and "Heroes", biographers have described the opening track, "Fantastic Voyage", as "surprisingly delicate" and "serene"; a thought author Peter Doggett believes implies a "less intense" record. The song shares the same chord sequence as "Boys Keep Swinging" and features three different players playing mandolin parts; each part was triple-tracked to create a total of nine parts. Bowie composed "Move On" after accidentally playing his earlier composition "All the Young Dudes" backwards, then having Alomar write out the reversed chord sequence. "Yassassin" combines funk and reggae, using a violin played by Simon House to create a sound reminiscent of a Middle Eastern folk song and Turkish music. In part, the music of German band Neu! inspired "Red Sails", sharing their distinctive "motorik" drum beat; Pegg describes it as "an upbeat slab of new wave pop". The track has also been compared with Harmonia's 1975 track "Monza (Rauf und Runter)". Regarding "D.J.", Bowie explained, "This is somewhat cynical but it's my natural response to disco." Bowie mimics David Byrne of Talking Heads in his vocal performance. Wawzenek highlighted "D.J." as a "danceable gem". Doggett describes "Look Back in Anger" as "propulsive and impatient", while Ned Raggett of AllMusic called it a "sharp-edged, thrillingly modern rock song". O'Leary particularly highlights Davis' drumming as the standout, while Alomar's guitar solo was influenced by John Lennon's rhythm guitar work in the Beatles. The Quietus found "Boys Keep Swinging" to contain elements of glam rock and garage rock. For the recording, which has the same chord sequence as "Fantastic Voyage", Bowie instructed the band to swap instruments. "Repetition" features a bass guitar riff that is described by Buckley as "insistent and very odd". Doggett highlights its sound as similar to funk music. "Red Money" is built around the backing track of "Sister Midnight", an Iggy Pop song he recorded with Bowie for The Idiot. New guitar parts were added, along with electronic effects, backwards guitar and vocal harmonies. Lyrics and themes Though missing the song/instrumental split that characterised Low and "Heroes", Lodger has been interpreted as covering two major themes— travel and critiques of Western civilisation on sides one and two, respectively. In early 1977, Bowie said, "I don't
