New Bowie Song
New Bowie Song
Anyone else heard the new Bowie song "(She Can) Do That"? If not, don't panic, as it sounds a bit like Never Let Me Down gone techno. After the disappointing Reality, I'm starting to think the Thin White Duke should retire for a while.

I didn't like Reality either (two good songs not counting the covers, as I recall) but Outside, Heathen and esp. Earthling were all better than anything since Scary Monsters at least, so I wouldn't count him out quite yet. But I'm sure he can afford to wait until he's written ten great songs.

Yep. I saw him a few years ago at Queens College - tiny little theater - more of a lecture hall really - when he did that New York City Marathon mini-tour (concerts all five New York boroughs in a single week). Totally magnetic peformer and a great band to boot - Earl Slick, Gail Ann Dorsey, etc. My only previous Bowie concert had been the disastrous "Glass Spider" tour at Anaheim Stadium years ago.BlueChair wrote:And he still puts on an incredible live show

Reality wasn't as fabulous as Heathen, but it was still very good. Nice to hear something of him. He's been very quiet since the lollipop-->eye-->shoulder-->heart thing of a year ago. I was meant to go see him in Dublin at the open air Oxygen festival but he had to pull out. Shame. Was fabulous at Wembley Nov 03. Hope to see him again before too long.

I like Reality just one tiny hair less than Heathen, which I adore. I like Hours mostly, though parts are dull. Haven't heard the new track, but unless he's gone completely Chad & Jeremy, I'll probably dig it a lot.
