bisexuality doesn't exist, of course he's straight. experimenting with sexuality and gender was even more trendy in the 70's than it is now

Great artist, and to a degree was responsible for reviving (or starting) the careers of other great artists. Say what you want about his whole brand and what have you but the guy is good at the shit he does.
I dislike him.
Her music & artlook is boring in all sense.
The heroes thing is cool but, surprise, is stealed from Krautrockers.

Has anyone ever been such a talentless hack?
closeted neo-Nazi who shat out Tin Machine to cover his tracks
Even his worst is the best.

irrelevant

clean your ears, senpai. More like he is just a One hit wonder.
>>Only 3 of his 27 albums sound alike.

Mind telling me how Viper and Jandek were influenced by Bowie?
>>61143302
Cocaine.
>>61142902
what a fucking idiot
Overrated by just about everybody. New album was shit. Space Oddity and Man Who Sold the World were both shit. Heroes was actually pretty good. Low was decent. Everything else was mediocre.
>>61143451
stop talking shit
>mediocre
do you even know what your saying?
fuckers like you are trying way too hard to hate on him just because he's an old artist that's been getting a lot of attention on /mu/ lately cause of the new single
If you don't like Bowie, you don't like music.
>>61143567
nah m8. You just haven't grown past the 'music as marketing' phase yet. It'll come soon enough pleb.
>>61142902
>Just staph.
Yeah go back to tumblr/ the youtube comment section
The fact of the matter is that music is subjective, and Bowie is objectively critically and commercially more successful than all but a handful of musiciansall due to the collective subjective opinion that his music is great.
overrated honestly
>>61143596
you have no idea what you're talking about
please grow up
>>61143690
Funny thing is, I do. Memes aside for a moment - tell me how I'm wrong.
>>61143710
explain why everything apart from from "heroes" is ""mediocre" first. you troglodyte
>>61140684
Jack of all trades, master of none but comes extremely close. Also amazing actor, I get the feeling he could have been in any field/career and been a standout.
>>61143451
agreed 100%
station to station is pretty good too tho
>>61143747
Re-read my post, pleb. I clearly gave props to Low. They're mediocre records, primarily, due to the lack of 'new' that's offered. Plenty of artists in that period were generating new sounds and ideas, while Bowie simply rehashed the old with a sci-fi twist and a funny stage get-up. That doesn't equal great music, it equals a deception. It's a simple enough concept you cocksucker.
>>61143814
how does a lack of 'new' make the records mediocre? what a fucking retard.
It was new music recorded in the style of whatever he found interesting at the time.
why does an artist have to do something completely 'new' with every record they make?
why the fuck does "heroes" stick out for you?
if you liked the ambient shit just say so, instead of calling everything you didn't like mediocre
i really dont get it
seems really boring
i only like that major tom song, everything else sucks balls imhotbqhfam (in my humble opinion to be quite honest with you family)
>>61143927
I'm not referring to newness from record to record. I'm considering it within the scope of music as a concept. If you listen to 95% of Bowie's songs he is simply re-hashing a style of what someone has done before him, and inserting the Thin White Duke character (or whatever) into it. Just because you're clearly a fanboy doesn't make his music quantifiably great or original.
>>61143967
Most pleb comment I've ever read on /mu/
Please go back to reddit
>>61144080
>Just because you're clearly a fanboy doesn't make his music quantifiably great
his popularity does though.
>re-hashing a style of what someone has done
like a lot of great artists.
and his songwriting was almost always completely original
>All these newfriends hating on Based Bowie
He is probably the most important pop musician of the 70s
Everything from Hunky Dory to Scary Monsters was great
He is an icon and anybody who says otherwise probably hasn't even listened to anything but his singles
>>61144186
Spoken like a true pleb. I've listened to every record outside of his late 80s and 90s shit many times (huge fan previously). Go back to /r/music newfriend
>>61144182
So Linkin Park were great too because they were popular? Do you have a genuine learning disability anon?
