I admit I was never a great fan, but does anyone else think he sounds like Bud Flannagan (singer of the Dad's Army theme tune) on his new record, Where are We Now? I also think it sounds as if he's making up the words as we go along.

I did like Bowies "old stuff" but have to admit that this new song is a load of tosh. The other day I was listening to various DJ' s saying ow fantastic it was and the emperors new clothes came to mind! Some of them just don't know when to hang up the microphone for good do they? Paul McCartney is another one !

As my old grandad used to say He couldn't shoot "COAL" ( translated to he couldn't shout "coal" ) grin

Sorry to disagree - he could sing the phone directory for me and I'd be happy. smile

Someone should tell him to retire along with the Stones, McCartney and any of the others from that era who are still performing. Lets be honest it's embarassing to watch old men trying to prance around as they did in their youth.

Go out on a high and be remembered for how good you were not as some sad old man trying to recapture his youth.
