Composition

"Dollar Days" was done without having a demo created for it prior.[1] According to Donny McCaslin, who provided saxophone parts for Blackstar, "One day, David just picked up a guitar ... he had this little idea, and we just learned it right there in the studio."[2]

Critical reception

"Dollar Days" received positive reception from critics. Mike Powell of Pitchfork separately reviewed the song and labeled it their "Best New Track", comparing it to Bowie's older hits "Five Years" and "Ashes to Ashes".[3] Jody Rosen of Billboard labeled the song as "lovely" with a lyrical combination of "delicacy and clatter".[4]
