Title: Bowie not at his best
Review: Being a huge fan of Bowie, I was looking so forward to his follow up to Heathen which was such a classic Bowie album. However, I was and continue to be disappointed by this album.It starts off well with the track 'New Killer Star' but even that song wears thin with it's insipid "ready set go" and wimpy chorus. The songs are very ordinary (which Bowie can do well - see 'Hours') and boring but with some bright spots. Bowie's version of 'Pablo Picasso' is an artsy rocker in the vein of 'Heathen's' 'Cactus', 'Fall Dog Bombs the Moon' is good and the lounge lizard tune 'Bring Me The Disco King' is interesting but otherwise a bit of a blip in Bowie's catalogue as far as I am concerned. Still love ya' though God - oops I mean David.
