What new departure did "Speed of Life", opening track of his 11th album "Low", mark for David Bowie?
Speed of Life (David Bowie song) "Speed of Life" is the first instrumental by David Bowie. It is the opening track for his album "Low" from 1977.
The Hearts Filthy Lesson "The Hearts Filthy Lesson" (no apostrophe in "Hearts" ["sic"] ) is a song by David Bowie, from his 1995 album "Outside", and issued as a single ahead of the album. It showcased Bowie's new, industrial-influenced sound. Lyrically, the single connects with the rest of the album, with Bowie offering a lament to "tyrannical futurist" Ramona A. Stone, a theme continued in subsequent songs. The song is also meant to confront Bowie's own perceptions about the ritual creation and degradation of art.
