Music reviews of Diamond Dogs [ECD]
Music Review: Sense? Who cares?
Rating: 5 Stars
i recently read the lyrics to Diamond Dogs. guess what? made no sense at all. at least not to me. and Sweet Thing/Candidate is even weirder. makes me wonder what state of mind bowie was in when he wrote them. correction, makes me envy the state of mind bowie was in when he wrote them. but, on to the album. musically, this one could even be better than Ziggy. Diamond Dogs, Sweet Thing/Candidate. and We are the Dead are the standouts. Big Brother, which is great, and the big single, Rebel Rebel, pull up the rear. We Are The Dead gets no airplay, which is a real shame; it's haunting and beautiful. and Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (reprise) is too long for an entrance into popular culture. it could be bowie's best song ever. and that's really, really, really saying something. better than Ziggy? than Five Years? than Starman? than Space Oddity? TVC 15? Heroes? I think so. anyone who doesn't give Diamond Dogs five stars really doesn't understand Diamond Dogs.
Description of Diamond Dogs [ECD]
George Orwell's classic tale of totalitarianism, 1984, was the inspiration for a project that David Bowie hoped would further solidify his standing as a rock visionary. Bowie was a natural artist to helm a musical companion to Orwell's allegory, since his own music exhibits an innate alienation. The concept ultimately broke down, but the music didn't. "Rebel Rebel" has become a rock staple, while "Sweet Thing," "Candidate," and the forthright yet experimental title track (Bowie as puppet master) offer additional highlights. Still, despite such benchmarks and its conceptual flaws, Diamond Dogs is best listened to as a thematic collection. --Rob O'ConnorGeneral CDs
