Use for this purpose stated does not compete with the purposes of the original recording, namely the artist's providing a musical performance or recording services to audio or music production concerns and in turn marketing music or audio recordings to the public.To illustrate the song's Krautrock influence that was a stark contrast to Pop's prior work with the proto-punk band the Stooges. The music was mostly composed by Pop's friend, English musician David Bowie, who also produced The Idiot. The music on the song and album has been compared to Bowie's Berlin Trilogy, notably Bowie's 1977 album Low. Pop wrote the lyrics to the tracks, mostly in response to what Bowie was composing. In "Nightclubbing", Pop displays a vocal performance similar to Jim Morrison of the Doors, while the lyrics deal with hanging out in clubs with Bowie at night, further showcasing Bowie's influence on the album..
