Reply #7: OK... [View All]

[Dookus]

just listened....

His voice was fine. He was mic'ed bad, I agree.

The song itself sounded like it could've come off either of his last two albums, which is a mixed thing to me. I liked his last two, but nothing on them REALLY struck me, except possibly his cover of the Pixie's song (I forget the name) and Seven.

His hair (blond, hanging over the sides of his face) is a throwback to the late 70's, early 80's.

As for the song not making sense... if you mean lyrically - I'd say that the vast majority of his songs don't make sense in a literal way. I can point to a hundred songs of his that seem nonsensical. He used to take a Dada-ist approach to his lyrics, in which he'd pull random phrases/words out of a hat and use them as lyrics. He's always been inclined that way.

I'm buying the album tomorrow. No musical artist has ever been able to move me like Bowie... except maybe Beethoven.
