I love Bowie's voice. But given your awful track record with these types of things it would probably be a lot better for your 'cause' if you just kept quiet about this and not reflect any negative light on Bowie by association and shit.

May I politely ask which Bowie songs you are familiar with?


I got the Ziggy LP and the one with Let's Dance on it. I think its titled Let's Dance? lol



Then listen to "Scary Monsters". Something like "Kingdom Come" might be your taste then. lol
Hey loudmouth, shut the fuck up, right?

Elton John.

Never liked anything Bowie.

Apart from when he was the Goblin King.

if i brought up elton's shameless album plug of an appearance on "the nanny", would that be a sufficient enough last-minute fly in the ointment?

He only won the Muppets round; not the overall battle.

I can only compare them both using comparable situations - because they're so... incomparable. lol

I can definitely see that - then again, I loved the first Tin Machine album and a few songs from the second one aren't half-bad.

I Can't Read was always a favourite of mine. This version is interesting. Still can't get enough of the original. Pretty Thing is exciting too!

Anybody that doesn't like Bowie's voice needs to hear his version of "Wild is the Wind" before they make any judgments. drool
