Fred McGriff Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 this album is really good. i remember when it first came out i didnt like it because i thought it sounded gay. i bought this again about a month ago after not hearing it for probably about 10 years. now, it sounds kinda gay but i like it. it's just the right amount of gay. i dont know why but everytime a track off this album comes up on my shuffle i seem to go ape shit over it. "we prick you" plays in my car all the time now. i dont know if it's nostalgia or what. probably is. thos were some formative years and any musical artifact unearthed from those times is gonna be good i reckon. good album though.

David bowie is not as interesting as brian eno? really? :omg: for me yes. bowie is always pop music. its what hes going for. eno is much or than that. maybe bowie is just too popular. sometimes that makes me think less of an artist (makes no sense i know). same with john lennon.

J3FF3R00 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Bowie and Eno are both interesting in different ways. They are even more interesting together. Coincidentally, I am listening to David Bowie's Deram Anthology at the moment. People always gloss over this stuff, but it is fucking incredible! I saw Bowie on the Outside tour (with NIN and Prick... remember those guys?!?!). He was sick and only played 3 or 4 songs before walking off stage. Bonerkill. Oh yeah, Earthling is Bowie's DnB album. It's also one of few I don't have. I remember when it came out I had a mixed reaction because it was at the height of my obsession with both David Bowie and Jungle. For some reason, however, I was frightened to approach it. I'll have to pick it up next time I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 ah. i like some of the older ones and then i got into one of his more recent albums 'hours'. so not heard outside. does phil collins play drums on any of it? does he? eh? unlikely!

eh Speedy Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Bowie pretty much always sounds kinda gay. his shining music moments are mostly the ones where he's not singing much. that whole B side of Low is stellar. the only way i can get excited about Bowie is when he's acting. that's what the guy should be, an actor. loving him there (no homo).

J3FF3R00 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Rykodisc re-issued all of Bowie's LPs around 1990. Almost all of them include bonus tracks. The All Saints stuff is included in those releases. The best ones are Young Americans, Low, Heroes, Ziggy Stardust and Scary Monsters. If you can track them down, they are a fabulous listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest feargus Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 i like the lou reeds album that bowie produced. its banging Bowie is an artist ull keep going back to, most of us discover him between 15 to 17 move on for a few years to what's new at the time, rediscover him in our 20s, forget about him and then go back again. This guy stands the test of time and is still releasing great music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J3FF3R00 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 i like the lou reeds album that bowie produced. its banging Tansformer. That was possibly the first "cool" album I owned. I was 10. I still love the shit out of that one. It is a perfect album. Highlight: Bowie's backup vocals at the end of Satellite of Love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David bowie is not as interesting as brian eno? really? Because eno by himself is great, but Eno+Bowie is massive win, you never heard the berlin trilogy? GTFO u dumbass There's no such thing as "gay" with Bowie. Like Morrissey, these type of musicians allow the rigid heteros to ease up a bit without fear that it's gonna stick that way or someone is gonna call them out on it. A crowd of 100 burly London iron workers hugging Morrissey's neck one after the other in a line on stage can't be wrong. <3 Moz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
