Electronica/techno artist Moby would later say the only reason he got his first job as a golf caddy was so that he could afford to buy "Lodger", which had just come out at the time. American indie rock band Built to Spill referenced the album in their song "Distopian Dream Girl" taken from their 1994 album "There's Nothing Wrong with Love". A few of "Lodger"s songs influenced two English Britpop bands in the 1990s. Blur used the same chord sequence as "Fantastic Voyage" and "Boys Keep Swinging" in their 1997 single "M.O.R.". The song's chorus also borrows the melody and call-and-response vocals from "Boys Keep Swinging"; Bowie and Eno both received credit for "M.O.R." after legal intervention. The lead singer Damon Albarn has cited Bowie as an influence. Oasis named their 1996 single "Don't Look Back in Anger", written by Noel Gallagher, after "Look Back in Anger". American indie rock band Shearwater covered the album in its entirety at live shows and on "The A.V. Club" following Bowie's death in early 2016.
