The Next Day

David Bowie · 2013

Album cover for The Next Day by David Bowie

Wait, is this guy… gay or something?
He seems to be a little off the beaten track. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing here. Music needs folks who can contribute truly original insights, viewpoints, and weirdness of every type. Music builds on all that has come before it, and I can see a lot of good foundations here that can be built upon.
This isn’t standard fare. Bowie has always been great at that, and I really hope others pick up the torch he carried so selflessly for so many years.
