Little Wonder (song)
"Little Wonder" is a song and single by David Bowie, from the 1997 album ''Earthling''. It was the album's biggest hit, reaching number 14 in UK. At the 1998 Brit Awards the song was nominated for Best British Video.
==Background==
Bowie uses the names of all seven dwarfs in the lyrics. The sampled spoken line "If it's good to ya, it's gotta be good for ya" during the instrumental break, comes from the spoken intro of a live Steely Dan song called "Bodhisattva" from the ''Citizen Steely Dan'' box. Two main interpretations to the lyrics are given by James E. Perone, who writes that the song may simply represent some characteristics of Bowie's own personality or, in another case, an alien observing aspects of the life on Earth.〔James E. Perone, ''The Words and Music of David Bowie'', Greenwood Publishing Group, 30 June 2007, p.119.〕 The drum break is sampled from The Winston's instrumental, "Amen, Brother," a popular drum solo and sample commonly referred to as the "Amen Break."
