This is utter genius.


Shades of Radiohead's Pyramid Song and other tracks from Kid A/Amnesiac.

How can someone of his length of service in the music industry be still so fertile and imaginative?


Also, what a video! wub.gif

This is just brilliant. I was enthralled by every second of the 10 minutes.

Listening to/watching 'Lazarus' from the viewpoint of a man who knew he had a terminal illness left a lump in my throat. sad.gif

^ I'm the exact same sad.gif just checked out 'Lazarus' knowing it was his final music video and it was a total tear jerker now we know what he's singing about. So haunting. </3

I've never really been a fan of Bowie, or should I say I've never really paid attention to a lot of his music, but I've just watched the video for (the sublime) 'Lazarus' and it's actually brought a tear to my eye. sad.gif

If anyone's interested, I could host a Least Favourite Single competition for all of David Bowie's singles.

I'd be up for it.

But I'm guessing you don't really mean all of them? I doubt many people would know stuff like I Dig Everything, Memory of A Free Festival Holy Holy, or Do Anything You Say.

Or are we just talking hits?

I'd prefer a straight up rate of his singles.

Agreed, but to include all singles and UK releases only.

Maybe just the top 40 hits then. I'd say possibly multiple hosts, as he has had 61 top 40 hits (possibly 62 if Lazarus makes it on Friday)

I have been listening to Bowie all week, going through every album he's released. I was missing out on so much for so long.

On this new album - it is one of the cleverest, most heart-breaking albums i've heard in a long time. A very fitting tribute to the legend.

I would be happy to contribute write ups for each single if needed

That would be great. I'll be starting the first round shortly.

Lazarus is my favourite Bowie single in an absolute age. Incredible album too. The Next Day was a solid return but Blackstar is real genius, the production is outstanding throughout and the lyrics have really affected me, particularly knowing the circumstances in which they were written. He will be sorely missed.
