Space Oddity
Queen Bitch
Life on Mars?
Changes
The Jean Genie
Cracked Actor
Panic in Detroit
Rebel Rebel
Fame

Golden Years
TVC 15
"Heroes"
Ashes to Ashes
Modern Love
I'm Afraid of Americans

 

[U2democrat]

Definitely get all of Hunky Dory. There aren't too many songs on it so it shouldn't be expensive.

 

[phillyfan26]

Yeah, I was thinking that anyway. Thanks.

 

[U2democrat]

My pleasure

If you buy Ashes to Ashes it's an OK album, I was kind of disappointed. The best songs are of course Fashion, Ashes to Ashes, and It's No Game pt 2.

 

[Lila64]

This is my husband/hardyharhar's input:

I'd say your pretty well set. Don't bother with complete albums at this point, probably not worth it. Skip Ashes To Ashes, it's a stab at his old glory that doesn't work very well. You've already got the title song anyways. I'd still get Watch That Man, Drive-In Saturday from Aladdin Sane, and Diamond Dogs (though it drags on a bit). That was the end of the line for Bowie and myself.

damn, i kinda liked that guy

 

[Lila64]

are you THAT out of the loop Doozer?

 

[Doozer61]

i guess so

 

[No spoken words]

So, the band Stars.

If you asked me to name my 20 favorite bands, I'd not name them, but I genuinely like all of their albums. They are not great, I don't think, but they are pretty damn solid. Some bands I say I love, or like, or hate, but of them I'd just say I simply enjoy their music.

So, yeah.

I thought Ashes to Ashes was just a song, and the album was Scary Monsters?

That's what I meant. I plead brain fart.


A lot of new, enthusiastic faces showed up at the Young Dems meeting tonight and they stayed for the Students for Obama meeting that followed.

 

[UberBeaver]

Get the full Space Oddity album. Then look into other things. Like Jane's Addiction and the Pixies.

 

[phillyfan26]

I bought Hunky Dory, though won't give it a fair listen until I escape from the depths of hell (aka school for the past few weeks).

I've completely stopped functioning properly, to the point where I've given up tonight and am going to bed well under-prepared for my big due date on Friday. But I can get nothing done. I can't think.

 

[U2democrat]

Ugh. I'm developing a painful cough.

Tre......I've been on an 'Out of Time' kick lately...I can't get enough of that album....

 

[RavenBlue]

My shuffle seems to like Bruce Cockburn an awful lot tonight

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

You Said 'Cockburn'....

If I Had A Rocket Launcher....

U2 supposedly recorded that song in 1990/91...

Seriously!

I know they quoted Bruce in God Part II.. but I didn't know they recorded IIHARL...

 

[Reggie Thee Dog]

Re: Re: You Said 'Cockburn'....

I know they quoted Bruce in God Part II.. but I didn't know they recorded IIHARL...

Yeah, as a response to the "Gulf War"...but they never released it, and I never heard anything more about it. I wonder if it'll show up on the "Acthung Baby" remaster...

 

[RavenBlue]

Well, that would be nice indeedlydoo

 

[BoMac]

Back home, Bar. Good game; Habs won, of course.

ooooooh, look at me, my hockey team is able to win games

 

[BoMac]

Sorry, didn't mean to rub it in.

 

[BoMac]

To borrow a phrase from my G Bomac: No one can be that obtuse, right?

That's exactly what I would have said. I especially like his response to my Hispanics question in the Films thread. It looks to me like he took my question seriously!

 

[RavenBlue]

I've been taught since birth that the Habs are evil...

Though if they ever made it to the Stanley Cup final again.. I probably would find it in my bitter little heart to root for them.. just to have a Canadian team get the cup again...

Oh look, another Bruce Cockburn track has just started...

Waiting on a

Waiting for a

miracle...

Should be the Leafs songs
