How far through is it?

[russycarps]

Right at the start before the song even starts!

How far through the performance is Starman!  Like 20:22, that kind of thing

Ohhhh I dunno I have all the songs separately! It's the 15th track though so I dunno 50 mins or so?

Edit no more like 70 mins!

He was saying something cheesy and then saying that he really meant it afterwards.  Other than not knowing one of the words, it makes about as much sense to me as on stage banter ever does.

This might be old news but has anyone else left their copy of Blackstar out in sunlight?

I don't think it is old news, I only found out a few hours ago. Wonderful, he still has secrets for us months after he's gone.

I saw this earlier. Beautiful. Bowie, still giving...

[djdavejohnson]

Wow I didn't see that. Hero.

[russycarps]

Anyone watching this proms thing?

I feel like I should be enjoying it more. It's a bit po-faced though isn't it? Like something some trendy music teachers would throw together.

[MrZigster]

Thanks russy. Just fired it up as Blackstar is playing. I'm kind of obsessed with that track. I'll get back to this.

Edit: Ok just ending then. Just love the drums and the way it slows down. I think the whole album is wonderful.

It really deserves at least some nominations for Album of the Year.

And yeah, blackstar is absolutely superb.

I'm obsessed with the albums scary monsters and super creeps, and lodger at the moment. Specifically the songs teenage wildlife and move on. Loving them!

Marc Almond was a let down.

[MrZigster]

My 'puter decided to lock up just as Marc Almond came on I started to post. Too many tabs open perhaps? Have had to reboot. Was going to say MAs' version of "Jackie" was the business, but add something along the lines of" "Camp Blokes, Know Your Limits".

THE reason Let's Dance wasn't arranged with trumpets in mind

[MrZigster]

I'm being a bit cynical. I'd probably be dancing my arse off is I was there.
