David Bowie's first track in 10 years
 

What do you think?

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.

Like the song, like the video.

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)

Ziggy days were best for me, this track does nothing for me.

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.

His vocals aren't what they were, but then he is 66 (today in fact!). Personally I like it, but less so than his classic tracks.

Love it, unique, unusual Bowie.

I've liked him since this..

legend is an over used word

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)

MY god its slow.. delete!

Yes I have seen him a few times myself, but sadly I was only 7 when he toured Ziggy which is the tour I would have loved to have seen.

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.

Yeah well I doubt you even know who he is :lol1:

I thought it was a weird video....

It is too slow, but I think it probably grow on me in time.

As much as I like Bowie that dosen't do much for me.

Classic Bowie :cool: :cool: :cool:

Awesome and spellbinding in equal measure, second favourite Bowie song

Here's another from my YouTube playlist, Another great live performance.

Great to see him back , looking forward to the album

Would be great if he toured again , heres hoping !

Some good song choices there guys but I would also add

Life on mars
The man who sold the world
Time
Quicksand
Queen Bitch
Wild is the Wind
Sorrow
and pretty much the whole Low album :thumb: :D

Yeah but not compared to the first time i saw Scary Monsters with the clown on the beach! :eek:

The stuff of nightmares!

IMO Bowie's effort is more convincing and refreshing than Macca's; for their advanced years in life. Good on Bowie. :thumb:
