David Bowie thinks that Diamond Dogs is his worst album, but I must disagree. As a musician, I'm sure he has different expectations of himself and how the album fits together. The album doesn't really fit together that  good at all. It was supposed to be a rock opera based on my personal  favorite book, 1984 by George Orwell, but he was denied the rights and so  we're left with Diamond Dogs...  "Future Legend" is a one  minute narration done by Bowie and it sets the atmosphere for this album,  but what exactly is the atmosphere in this album?  "Diamond  Dogs" is a great song, but it sounds a little like a sloppy,  slowed-down version of "Watch That Man" from Aladdin Sane.  "Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (reprise)" is without a doubt  the best part of this cd. The songs are very coherent and dramatic which  makes them the most uniquely Bowie part of the album. Really great songs  here.  "Rebel Rebel" is the most well known and the biggest  hit on here. This is the song that made Diamond Dogs the first David Bowie  album to break the top 10 in America. A simple, yet great guitar part..  "Rock n Roll With Me" is a simple yet corny ballad, but I still  like it despite its hokey-ness.  Besides the "Sweet Thing,  Candidate" stuff, my other favorite song on here is "We Are The  Dead". It's the first song on the cd to be influenced by the great  1984 novel and what a song it is...The keyboards really shine through here  along with the great lyrics and  David's weak, yet moving vocals.  "1984" is a catchy, fun little song (inspired by the book, of  course).  "Big Brother" is another incredible and catchy  song. This one will really get stuck in your head. It has a great trumpet  solo and it leads right into...  "Chant of the Ever-Circling  Skeletal Family" is probably the WEIRDEST songs Bowie has ever  released, but it's a fun and short song with good guitars.  Diamond  Dogs is a cd that may not stay in your cd player for very long, but it will  keep coming back in there and you'll realize what a great cd it is.
