BOWIE

Post by Shiney on Tue Dec 29, 2009 2:07 pm



Sweet Jeebus!! How the hell can we not have a BOWIE thread! One of the greatest chameleonic entertainers of the last 40 years!!!!




Stylistically unparallelled and truly an originator. While COOPER and other dragged the glam movement screaming and bleeding through the graveyard and slaughterhouse....Bowie was the Spaceman and Harlequin....






He sang with Bing Crosby...He acts ("The fantastic Man Who Fell To Earth")...and he continues to put out fresh albums...Not mining the same vein like most of his contemporaries have done **cough Aerosmith** His newer works are just a awe inspiring.

Fuck you...Bowie is awesome.

I mean, he is obviously no 311...but he still brings it.

Oh my gosh, I didn't see the Bowie thread until JUST NOW!!!! Shiney, you're my hero forever and ever. Ken...

....

You're likable enough. Misguided, sure, but likable.

I present to you the Live Performance of "Sorrow". Originally written by THE MCCOYS, Bowie takes it and makes it his own. Also, check out the 1973 version of the song where you can see him bopping around with his red mullet.

I actually like a lot of Bowie tunes, when done by others. For some reason, Bowie himself just irks me. And he creeps me out.

Well, your opinion sucks, TT. Razz

Bowie is satin and sequins. My pupils are dilating. And I wouldn't say that there's a creep factor as much as an otherworldly ambiance.
