River ,'Objects In Space'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
When Rio is here, we need not fear.
Angus, that album cover is unintentionally hilarious. He looks so SERIOUS!
Also, I work about 3 blocks from where Bowie lives. Haven't seen him, but have (almost literally) run into David Byrne.
My favorite Bowie right now is Hunky Dory, but part of that is still my love for John Cameron Mitchell's take on "Kooks" at the Loser's Lounge tribute.

So, uh, Michele! Where do you work, again? Don't suppose they're hiring editors ...
The commute from Seattle would be kind of a bitch, Jilli...

I love "Kooks" - such a lovely song. But now it makes me sad knowing that Zowie was the subject of an extremely bitter custody fight, and didn't get to grow up kooky at all, but rather spent his childhood in military academies.
Cheese Patrol is a special holiday event that goes on for... 12 hours? 24? All weekend? I forget. My point is that they have A LOT of time to fill and so they play loose with the definition of "cheese".
Blur crushes Pulp like a teeeeny tiny little champagne grape.
You, sir, are wrong like the largest possible wrong thing.
I have no opinions on album Bowie. I like the singles collection.
And I have seven of the eight "good" new alt albums mentioned in that EW article (am missing The Killers). How trendoid can I get?

Which one? The double disc set?
I have to confess - when I say I have 26 albums, that's counting, for example, the BBC recordings as 3 separate discs, and the Ziggy 30th anniversary edition as 2 discs, etc.
What I have is called changesbowie, and is just one disc. I got it on half.com a few years ago.

I'm sure you're going to say yes, but is the Interpol CD good? I love "NYC" and "Obstacle 1" oh so much.
Ha, yes, I think in this case it was a specific riposte to some band whose records used to say "no synthesisers were used in this recording"...was it Queen?
I don't remeber if Queen printed this in their liner notes, but the band I remember always printing this in the liner notes was Iron Maiden. It reamined true, right up until Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, when they finally realized that, as filter said, technology in the hands of creative, intelligent individuals is a tool for art, not a hindrance.
