Best song on "Let's Dance"?

I used to think was Modern Love but honestly it's "Ricochet"

What you think?

And yes, not his best album but that's beside the point

David on Dave Cavett,1974

Bowie entering his Young Americans era but good he could briefly discuss Diamond Dogs 💎 It is sad that he’s coked out of his mind and he’s all jittery(plus rubs his cane) which cracked actor just dives more into this but this is a sneak peek per say :(

I was just thinking that an Adrian Belew & David Bowie album would be awesome and i just learned...

That it really exists! I loved Lodger before, now i like it even more. I always felt like Sleepless from King Crimson could be a song from Low or something, so that's nice.

1. Outside | After getting "Excerpts from Outside" at RSD this year and liking it so much, I needed to find a copy of the full version. Excerpts now donated to my daughter.

I've now heard both Tin Machine albums and here's my review

Holy Holy these albums are so underrated they were awesome I actually would've rather had a third Tin Machine album over BTWN Tin Machine II was a downgrade from the debut but still great the first album actually ranks number two on my ranking of his discography the second album ranks lower in my list though my favorite Bowie song is Heaven's in here as well my favorite song on the second album is sorry Tin Machine is an underrated part of his discography that deserves more respect it's not a mix life crisis project the project alto me solved the actual mid life crisis album Never Let Me Down

What Bowie Bit Has Been Stuck In Your Head All Week?

For me it's the vocal melody in the chorus of Oh! You Pretty Things. Also the sax part in Lazarus. This guys discography continues to astound me.

In 1983, David Bowie Called Out MTV’s Racism On Their Own Air. This is what an anti- racist ally looks and sounds like

Favourite song of his?

Personally, my favourite song is Velvet goldmine! I LOVE IT SO SO SO MUCH OMGG!! I love all his songs but velvet goldmine and space oddity just hit different!

Also, this is ignoring all of his Labyrinth songs!! (Me personally because I would NOT be able to choose!!)

I think I may like 1. Outside…

Jokes aside this might be my favorite Bowie album, finally got to pick up the excerpts version, which while not telling the story as well I feel flows much better as an album.

Also since I own all theese versions I think a ranking is in order, so here it is from best to least best: 2026 Half-Speed Mastered, 1995 EU CD, 2022 2xLP, 1995 PL Cassette

Though I’d say they all sound great beside the Cassette

I have some questions...

Hey there, i'm gonna tell you a couple of things. Yeah, i'm taking some time to do the reviews from Scary Monsters and so on, but i'm re listening to everything so I have all fresh and I can talk with real fundament. So, yeah, I do it mostly because I want to re listen to The Berlin Trilogy and some albums that I think I don't remember too well.

Besides that, I'm still going forward with the journey. And I want to ask you, why the most of you don't like Tonight or The Soundtrack of Labyrinth? Now i'm listening to Never Let Me Down and I like most of the songs so far. It's because is too commercial? I could understand it from that view, but I mean, the songs are good, I like them. I'll read your comments, appreciate you all!

BOWIE - 1971 & 1973

Not really great at this so I wasn't able to locate or add either to my Discogs Collection despite actually owning the record.

I want to believe I will indeed figure it out eventually. lol

Anyways, for the sake of sharing here..

"You're Not Alone" @ Lightroom

I visited on Wednesday because the opening coincided with my UK trip. FWIW I feel that it was worth the £25.

It's an hour long movie and there are some similarities to "Moonage Daydream". But it is bigger and most importantly **immersive** somewhat like the Van Gogh and Monet immersive experience but far more interesting than either of those.

My favorite part was concert footage... the film was edited to include MULTIPLE performances (sometimes separated by as much as 20 years) of the same song.

I Need a 31st Album

I was bored at work today so I'm already looking ahead to December when I get to do my annual tradition of listening to Bowie's entire discography in chronological order. I'd really like to start on Dec 1st with the 1967 self-titled album and wrap on Dec 31st with Blackstar, but it'll take a little finessing to get the calendar to line up. Just the studio albums brought me up to 26, so I'm including Tin Machine, the Labyrinth Soundtrack, Toy, and Prokofiev's Peter & the Wolf (narrated by Bowie). Which means I need just one more to fill out every day in December. What should I do?

I was thinking maybe Bertold Brecht's Baal, but that's only 11 minutes according to Spotify so it's not a great choice for an "album". Is there maybe a single, definitive live album that would complete the set?

What Order Should I Listen to Bowie’s Albums?

I’ve been listening to Bowie for about 8 months now, and so far I’ve been going through his work in the order it was released. I’ve also been sitting with each album, relistening to all of the songs for about a month before going to the next album. The next album I’d listen to is Young Americans, but I was wondering if this was a good strategy for listening to his work or if I should instead try something else to enjoy it more? I also haven’t listened to his first album by the way.
