I've been listening to a lot of David Bowie recently. Young Americans, Station to Station, Lodger, Black Star, The Next Day.
I've tried to like Black Star, I really have, his final masterpiece, people say. I've tried to like it. Just give it another listen, I've been saying to myself.
I have to say, I much prefer The Next Day to Black Star. The Next Day has some great songs on it and is exciting. Black Star, not so much. It's more like an ambient ode to death, not so exciting really, as Bowie takes his final breath, that's what I think.
