David Bowie is an Absolute Alien genius

[jamuses]

@pinssimies I find what you said somewhat amusing "born in absolutely the wrong time. fuck the 21st century". Bowie's music, his Ziggy image, and the spirit of the 1970's was all about looking towards the future. They would have loved to have been born in the future.

Oh, so I see your a big Bowie fan. It's just amazing how talented he is. You're into Bowie's more glam rock type of work where i'm into the more experimental stuff, like Heroes and Low. It's sad that I haven't really gotten into Hunky Dory and Diamond Dogs (which I hear isn't his best work, but has some really good tracks on it). I suggest you try these Bowie albums, Low, Heroes, Station To Station and Aladdin Sane. That stuff really reminds me of the band Neu and Radiohead.

[pinssimies]

@aijunk2 Yeah, thanks, I dig most of those bands, but not too much part of the fandom, but I really need to listen them more, especially Joy Division, The Stooges and Radiohead. I've been stuck in the 20s jazz and 80-90s metal lately despite the eternal 70s dreaming, and I really need to "spread" out more xD

[pinssimies]

@aijunk2 yes I own the album, and I must agree with you, when it comes to this song; it's not the strongest piece in this album, unlike Five years or Rock n' roll suicide. And in my opinion, this isn't my favorite albums at all actually, I'm more into Hunky Dory and other pre-Ziggy and of course the bizarrness of the Outside era :)

Continued: And if you haven't (and I hope you have) check out the entire album, The Rise & Fall Of Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders from mars . . . aka, this song is on this album: And so are the amazing tracks like: Five Years, Soul Love, Moonage Daydream, Starman, This song, Lady Stardust, Star, Hang Onto Yourself, Ziggy Stardust, Suffragette City, Rock 'n' Roll Suicide. And to tell you the truth, this song is the weakest on the album, but that's not really saying much.

@pinssimies

Well . . . let's start over then. I'm not sure what you're really into, but David Bowie is a good mutuality between us. Here are album suggestions if you have not heard of them (as in listened, not just hearing of it). Pixies: Surfer Rosa, Doolittle. Joy Division: Unknown Pleasure, Closer. Stooges: Fun House, Raw Power. Radiohead: The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows. My Bloody Valentine: Loveless. Violent Femmes: Violent Femmes.

@aijunk2 Aah, now I got it. First of all please do not call me an idiot, diluted or dumbshit, it pretty much erases every smart thing you said. And it's not the music alone, it's the concerts, the phnomenon, the glam rock culture that doesn't excist in the same way anymore, and my dream is to experience it like it was. Music doesn't suck, we just have different opinions about it. And I listen a lot more than just "old" music.

@pinssimies

No, you don't understand it all. You're diluted and think, just because it's old, it's good. Disco and hair metal SUCK. 50's-present mainstream music for the most part SUCK. Your main complaint is that you were born in the wrong generation, when that is totally irrelevant because every decade has BAD mainstream music. However, this decade has somewhat of an advantage because you have easy access to good music. Dumbshit.

[pinssimies]

@aijunk2 You confuse me with your rampage. Yes I know every decade had their own mainstream music, and I do listen to "shitty" disco and hair metal. And dozens of other genres from several decades. But does it actually matter? Let's just enjoy the music. And sorry for everyone, if I've annoyed you with my naive comments.

[aijunk2]

@pinssimies

Dude . . . you're an idiot. Every decade had bad, mainstream music. The 2000's may have not been as special as some 70's albums, but they were sure as hell close. Plus, you have the internet to reflect back on it. And if you were born in the 60's/70's, you probably would of listened to shitty disco or hair metal bands.

An awesome. Just saw the end of an English flick on telly with that English macho (unt of an actor that was in Munich. This was the ending titles song.
