Anyone heard the new BOWIE album?

[hiphopnation]

Long devoted fan here. I listened to it in the store the other day. It's very good. He continues to impress.




and the album cover...

I guess I'm the only one here who cares about you, David. I'm sorry. You rock anyway. Love, Luke.

3. Nope

Sorry hiphop, I just felt bad that you were here all alone. I do find Bowie fascinating, though.

[hiphopnation]

4. HAHA!!

Nah. I'm suprised there's not more fans here, though. Thanks for the sympathy. haha.

5. I'm a huge fan!

Just bought the new CD... haven't listened to it yet.

6. It's great.

You're going to love it. The recording itself sounds very similar to the last two albums. Good songs though. Thoughtful and deep. He's so amazing.

I think Tony Visconti produced this record. Enjoy!

8. If Visconti is invovled I am so there...

Tony Visconti is the king of all producers...

Thanks for the heads up

[Dookus]

17. that's good news, cuz I loved his last two...

And Visconti? Really? Cool.

7. I've got it practically memorized

He was great on Carson Daly. Of course I would never watch that show unless somebody great is on.

9. I Love His Eyes... If you've never noticed before... it's really odd

Look Closely... What Do You See?

10. Don't get me started...

Do you know what's up with them??

He got in a fight as a youth and it paralyzed his pupil so it doesn't close with more light. Crazy, huh??

BTW, any hardcore Bowie fans who HAVEN'T visited www.teenagewildlife.com simply must. Everything you need to know about the man, his music, and his life.

16. TW is a great site!

TW is one of the original and still best DB websites on the net. It has a great guestbook and message boards and endless archives of material. The TW webmaster is a good friend of mine! Met him through the Bowie fanworld, and ended up going out for a while a few years ago.

Other good sites are BowieWonderworld (http://www.bowiewonderworld.com/) run by my buddy Paul Kinder (aka Rednik), and the Ziggy Stardust Companion (http://www.5years.com/). And for some amusing pictures of me and some other BowieNetters, you can even visit my own humble Bowie cobweb at http://ramsey.dca.net/bnbdb.htm

11. Hears a cut last nite on the radio

Something about water? I thought, Mmm, cool song, wonder who it is? Patted self on back that I was opening myself up to a new band-- then they said it was Bowie.

12. I haven't heard the album yet...

... but I'll try to pick it up soon. Bowie is fantastic. My only problem with him is that he's got such an incredible presence as an actor, but he doesn't spend enough time doing it. I'd love to see him on the screen more. Not to mention his amazing speaking voice.

I thought Heathen was a really cool album. There are lots, though, in his catalog that I've never heard.

I think The Cygnet Committee off his first album is my personal favorite song, though I don't think anyone else has even heard it!

13. I'm scared of David Bowies penis.

It probably, hopefully, has something to do with watching that muppet movie as a child.

[hiphopnation]

14. Dr. That is indeed, extremely weird. n/t

15. I heard it live!!

I've been a BowieNet member forever, and Bowie has a couple of "members-only" concerts a year. They had an album debut concert at The Chance, a small club in Poughkeepsie, on August 19. Bowie played much of the new album with his current band. Great show! I was in about the 3rd row in this very tiny club, what a blast! BowieNetters have been able to download the tracks for several weeks.

The album surpasses his last few efforts IMO, it's rockier for one thing!
