Not a fan of that either.

You and I. We are now friends off.

David Bowie is my favorite artist. But I hate plenty of his American top 40 stuff:

Lets Dance
Under Pressure
Modern Love
Cat People
China Girl

He lost his rock cred when he pandered to the American audience.

[–] samoanjoes (53090) 2 years ago

I stopped listening to his albums post-1980.

[–] OnanTheBarbarian (10953) 2 years ago

"Scary Monsters" in 1980 was the last "real" Bowie album before he watered down his style, jumped the shark as they say.

He became very ordinary I agree.

[–] Jones70 (6195) 2 years ago

Do you like the other songs on the lets dance album?

[–] OnanTheBarbarian (10953) 2 years ago

No, Bowie went American top 40. I still believe he's the greatest rock artist ever for his 70's work. But his 80's albums don't do it for me. He watered down his style.

[–] samoanjoes (53090) 2 years ago

I think "We are the Champions" is worse.

[–] Mustang (5274) 2 years ago

It's my life - Bon Jovi
Fire - Hendrix

[–] samoanjoes (53090) 2 years ago

Not a fan of Bon Jovi, but I really hate "It's My Life."

[–] Matildawormwood (1545) 2 years ago

Man, I love "it's my life". Although nothing beats Bon Jovi's more classic songs.

[–] space1999 (725) 2 years ago

Vertigo -- U2

[–] Mustang (5274) 2 years ago

I want to say "Lemon" but then I don't like U2. I just really especially hate that Lemon song.

[–] space1999 (725) 2 years ago

lol...Lemon was a great song.

Really? Give them credit for something.

I've always been very fond of it.

Ugh...still good pick Mustang.

[–] Mustang (5274) 2 years ago

lol I just remember when it came out, the clip that chorus "Lemonnnnn"!

I'll given them credit for Sunday Bloody Sunday, not a bad song, even In the Name of Love. I think they should have stuck with that more stripped back rock sound.

[–] Jones70 (6195) 2 years ago

Do you like Desire, Bullet the Blue Sky, In God's Country, or Mysterious Ways?

[–] Mustang (5274) 2 years ago

Didn't like Desire or Mysterious Ways. I have never heard Blue Sky or God's Country.
