Getting a batch of new followers today, so a fine time I guess for another introduction thread.

Bowie Day 32 “Space Oddity” (1969) Track 1 of “David Bowie (Space Oddity)”
Okay here it is, Bowie’s first real hit. Important enough to me that I will devote more than a single post to it.

Bowie Day 31 “Did You Ever Have A Dream” (1967) B-Side of the Love You Til Tuesday Single
A bubbly little bit of fluff, but fun enough. Unconventional sound, (brass, banjo and harpsichord?), and Bowie’s voice sounds different. Almost unrecognizable.
Tomorrow’s a big one!

Doing a movie double-feature today with Die My Love, and Sisu.

Bowie Day 30 “Love You ‘til Tuesday (Single Version)” (1967)
A new version of the song on the album, I like it marginally better. Had a much fuller and more propulsive orchestral backing & an even-more-smiley vocal performance. Liked the other version, like this one too.

Bowie Day 29 "Please Mr. Gravedigger" (1967) Track 14 (final) track of "David Bowie"
Okay, this is less a real song than a sort of sing-songy skit like on an old-fashioned variety show, but it's no less delightful for all that.

Another waltz! Another character song, definitely a girl this time. About a young woman who is successful but lonely in high-fashion London.
Some nice rapid-fire lyrics here and a sweet sway in the music.

Bowie Day 27 “She’s Got Medals” Track 12 of “David Bowie”
Bowie loves writing songs about weird little guys! But this one is about a girl, or is it?
Definitely presages some of his interest in gender-bending. Fun musically too, I like it, though I was rooting for Tommy.
