With the recent news that David Bowie would be releasing a new album, Blackstar, in early 2016, the prolific songwriter has released the 10-minute title track from the release.
The composition is typically bizarre, featuring some cosmic art-rock with chanting, classical elements, and a healthy mix of Bowie’s iconic vocals. The song fits in with some of Bowie’s space-themed compositions, like “Space Oddity” and “Life On Mars?,” but gears away from the radio-friendliness and into the depths of Bowie’s twisted imagination.
