That whole Earthling album is fantastic. Weirdly it’s the first Bowie album I bought.
Same here. Bowie had a weird thing for jumping on various trends over the decades, but sometimes he ended up with an era I liked and produced bangers.
Outside was an outstanding concept album released prior to Earthling, with a great outro song for the movie Seven. Hours and Heathen were both good albums around that time, too.
Dead Man Walking is amazing. The whole album is still good today.
I remember seeing dead man walking on I think top of the pops, it was freaking amazing.
And the first time I heard Little Wonder on MTV2 I just stopped and watched, then knew I had to have that CD.
Also: “shaking their sex and their bones, and the boys that they were”
And “I don’t want knowledge; I want certainty!”
Here’s the Piped link with the video and a creepy Trent/Johnny.
