...Major Tom is still floating in outer space! eek laugh

David Bowie - Best of. A fine catalogue of one of the best earthlings to venture into modern music.

....or what haven't you watched yet.

I just saw a photo of Bowie and the caption said it was from 'Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence' (1983) confused

I guess I missed that one.

Think of it as a 'cult classic', as its always in budget price over here. It also features music / a soundtrack from another of your favorite singers. smile

I wish it was available in the budget rack over here, but despite Beat Takeshi and Ryuichi Sakamoto playing main roles, I find it hard to get a version here.

Forbidden colours by David Sylvian and Ryuichi Sakamoto (as it appears on the film soundtrack) is also proving elusive. I can recall thinking how cool it sounded at the cinema (think giant sound system, big bass bins) and how (slightly) disappointed I was when I heard it on the home stereo (which wasn't bad).
