I am a massive Bowie fan, but it doesn't really do it for me. I think his vocals aren't what they used to be and with the stripped back nature of this track that is only amplified. The song is also a little bland IMO!
That said I will still be wanting to hear the album. He really was one of rock's game changers in the 70s and early 80s.

I am a big Bowie fan too
sound like a lament -- but quite like it
for me the Young American album is by far his best -- Young Americans one of my all time favorite tracks (with the young Luther Vandross on backing vocals)

Great to hear that voice again.
I've been a Bowie fan since early days before Ziggy.
Agree with Hodgy it does sound like a lament, very sad sound.

Ziggy is the best album ever made and Hunky Dory, Diamond Dogs and Aladdin Sane are all classics too. Bascially the bloke is a legend and even if I am not partial to this new track I wish him all the best with anything he does.

but fits Bowie perfectly imo -- not a fan of all his stuff (although have every album) but you have to hand it to the man
so musically talented
saw him live on the "Stage" and "Lets Dance" tours (and the only other band I have seen live is the Jam)

He was one of the first to really create an on stage persona and add a drama perspective to rock music and he also changed his muscial style many times over reinventing himself each time. A lot of the acts of today owe him a great deal.
