"Scream Like a Baby" is a song written by David Bowie that appears on the 1980 album ''Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)''. ==Music and lyrics== The song focusses on a protagonist called Sam who is evidently being held, along with the track's narrator, in a political prison. Though set in the future, the story is related in the past tense, in a fashion Bowie has described as "future nostalgia... A past look at something that hasn't happened yet".〔Nicholas Pegg (2000). ''The Complete David Bowie'': p.181〕 Musically the song is noted for its "ultra-modern new wave guitar/synth sound",〔 as well as for Bowie's use of varispeed vocals to illustrate Sam's downward spiral in the prison hospital – according to ''NME'' critics Roy Carr and Charles Shaar Murray, the effect is "as if the narrator of 'All the Madmen' inhabited the world of '1984'".〔Roy Carr & Charles Shaar Murray (1981). ''Bowie: An Illustrated Record'': p.113〕 "Scream Like a Baby" was one of a number of tracks on ''Scary Monsters'' that evolved from pieces Bowie had written years before. It was originally composed in 1973, with different lyrics, as "I Am a Laser" for The Astronettes (Ava Cherry, Geoffrey MacCormack and Jason Guess).〔David Buckley (1999). ''Strange Fascination - David Bowie: The Definitive Story'': p.207〕 Bowie worked on an album for the group but it was eventually dropped, finally surfacing in 1995 as the Ava Cherry album ''People from Bad Homes''; "I Am a Laser" was one of the tracks.
