I know I was watching one of the musical channels on T.V and I heard what he did with Let's dance.
I was livid, screaming at the T.V : "how dare you?".
There are classics that should not be touched!. If you remove the instrumental of Let's dance, Craig David's vocal touch is mediocre.
Music Executives and singers are abusing the constant use of classics (music+lyrics) as they can't have their own styles, reivente themselves as genuine artists and the songwriting is poor.
They re-use musical classics to get sales, they are music w****s, they do it for the money. I feel sorry for the new generation, the music industry want them to be ignorant.
My only advise for youngsters is to dig for music in the 60's, 70's, 80's and some of the 90's today's music is a fraud.
However there are still real talents out there but there are very few of them.

I agree with you there are worse songs out there and there will be more.
When someone loves music it is just too sad to see that happening.

Oh, please, since when did "Let's Dance" become such a sacred cow?


Not that I like his version. Or that I'll even click the link to watch/listen, but come on, let's not act like this song is some masterpiece of the Bowie canon that just should not be touched.

I was just going to post that he went back to the 80's to do make this video. But it's obviously intentional. The Big Fonts, wardrobe, the shots...everything. I don't mind the song. If I didn't know it was Craig David (and I wouldn't if the video didn't say it) I'd be fine with it. I like it a little less because it's him doing it.

I love Bowie's song, but what they do to it, doesn't bother me. There have been major crimes committed against many classics, this isn't even close.

Talking about MC Hammer.... he used the music of Rick James in Super Freak to release can't touch this. Now a few of my mates did not even know that, they gave all the credit to MC Hammer....
People don't even question music these days, it is a real shame.
