As we mentioned yesterday, The Next Day is David Bowie’s new album and his first in 10 years.
Throughout his illustrious career he has given us seminal songs and images that have become imbedded in rock’s vocabulary. He has also been a personal inspiration for me.
The Next Day is Bowie in full maturity and works wonderfully as an album. Yes, there are selected singles but the record needs to be absorbed from beginning to end.
That being said, through multiple listenings different songs emerge as favorites.
Today I am enthralled by a song near the end of the album “You Feel So Lonely You Could Die”.
