Yeah, I hear you.
Up The Hill Backwards misses the mark for me and there's a couple on the second half I really don't care for, but I still consider it a album.

Definitely one of my faves.

Save your stars for lame MJ albums, please!

Cheek said:

Shame he has no albums that are lame, then.

Cloudbuster said:

Invincible was totally lame.

Invincible

Mike always makes me smile!

Cheek said:

Yeah, if you're deaf.

Cloudbuster said:

Are you sure we're talking about the same album?

Cheek said:

You must have been given this by mistake.

Cloudbuster said:

Which one is Mike?

Cheek said:

All of them.

Cloudbuster said:

How perverse!

Cheek said:

That's Mike.

Cloudbuster said:

He's also known as the Liberian Girl.

Damn! I'm jacking my own thread!

Cloudbuster said:

No, David!
It was about Scary Monsters and Super Creeps like Mike Jackson.

Don't anger the Bowie, bitch!

Cloudbuster said:

Don't call me bitch!











...just call me Dirty Diana!!!

Kate! What are you doin' here?

BeatsPerMinute said:

Anybody else really curious about the songs he'll do at that gig he's doing in a couple of days? And who's in his band?

My guess is that he'll probably do mostly new songs and throw in a couple of classics.

it's good, but I think it's a bit overrated in that
the fucking annoying tagline 'his best since scary Monsters'
isn't fair 2..1.Outside

calldapplwondery83 said:

I'd love to hear him doin' some classics he hasn't played for ages like "Space Oddity", "Aladdin Sane" or "Rock 'N' Roll Suicide"!

Martinelli said:

"Outside" is a great record but "Monsters" is so much stronger as an album.
The interludes make "Outside" less-enjoyable - and it has a few fillers on it.

I saw this thread the other day, Cheek. You've picked a cracker!

I think this was the second Bowie album I bought, after 'Black Tie, White Noise'.

'Scary Monsters...' is one of those albums I *never* tire of. Ever. It launches a complete assault on you - in all the right places. Bowie really was on a roll with this one and there's still nothing like it. It constantly fights for the position of my favourite Bowie album.

When you look at the rest of his 80's output, it's just sad when you think how much promise this album gave...

But a wonderful, wonderful album. Genius.

Cheek said:

I think Outside is a mess. There's a much better album struggling to get out, in my opinion.
I think there's only one song I like on the second half. But I appreciate I'm in the minority, most folk consider it his best work of the 90s. I much prefer Hours.

Cheek said:

I definitely agree. The burned copy I have without them is much easier to stomach.
