Just finished listening to the scintillating sound of my car not starting.

At least it’s broken when I don’t really need it.

David Bowie - Tonight

EMI Records 1984

This is way better than I remember.

yeah, was the beginning of the end of his epic run of releases, Blue Jean is a great song tho and didn't realize all the Iggy songs and involvement

Have you heard the demos?

As well as acknowledging that Tonight was not one of his stronger efforts, Bowie would later distance himself from his 1984–1987 period
In 1989 when working with Tin Machine, he described both Tonight and Never Let Me Down as "great material that got simmered down to product level. I really should have not done it quite so studio-ly. I think some of it was a waste of really good songs. You should hear the demos from those two albums. It's night and day by comparison with the finished tracks. There's stuff that I could really kick myself about. When I listen to those demos it's, 'How did it turn out like that?' You should hear "Loving the Alien" on demo. It's wonderful on demo. I promise you! (laughs). But on the album, it's not as wonderful."

I have not heard the demos, but I sure would like to. They did a remix of the next album for the last boxset and it allows the songs to just breathe without all the kitchen sink stuff.

Don’t forget Iggy Pop’s Blah blah blah album from 1986

Major Bowie involvement

Checking this at the moment, it's a great listen... thanks for the heads up on it!

Rina Sawayama - SAWAYAMA
yeah, I dig her and was on my best of 2020 list
the STFU! video is great....I really like how she can weave so many styles into one song
Some of it's a little KPOPy for me (even though she is British)
