Because I was also going to play "Heroes" today. I have some inside information about David Bowie that I was going to share on the air this morning. VERY big news. But sad. I will reveal all, later on this morning.

"Consume" reminds me: People I know of completely different (often mutually opposing) political stripes each project their own politics on that movie, but I'm the only one who sympathizes w the side the movie plays as the bad guys.

Ken, are you sure this isn't some kind of publicity stunt? As they say, "follow the money" - Bowie sales are through the roof!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:32am Parq:

@Rich in Wash: Yeah, that came out in 1974. I imagine very few people who were Babs fans in '74 knew Bowie's music and I expect many of them had never heard of him. God only knows what they made of the lyrics in that song.

I can understand why so many people find the Langley album so affecting. This "Oddity" is both wonderful and disturbing.

I don't love that Langley Space Oddity. That Charles de Goal was great though.
