Release and Aftermath
"Fashion" was the second single from Scary Monsters and the first issued after the album's September 1980 release. The edited 7" cut reached #5 in the UK, and by hitting #70 in America gave Bowie his first chart single there for four years. The UK sleeve design was adapted for the cover art on the 1980 compilation Best of Bowie. The song has since been performed on several tours. It was featured in the movie Clueless.

Famous quotes containing the words release and, release and/or aftermath:
“We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.”
—Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
“If I were to be taken hostage, I would not plead for release nor would I want my government to be blackmailed. I think certain government officials, industrialists and celebrated persons should make it clear they are prepared to be sacrificed if taken hostage. If that were done, what gain would there be for terrorists in taking hostages?”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
“The aftermath of joy is not usually more joy.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
