I know, it seems crazy! OMG HOW CAN THERE BE A SONG BY DAVID BOWIE THAT YOU DO NOT ABSOLUTELY LOVE?
oh plz whatev! Anyway, what are some songs by David Bowie that you don't care for? For instance, if I ever have to hear 'The Laughing Gnome' one more time, I will probably kill myself. I also really hate 'John I'm Only Dancing (Again)'. I love the original song so much that the remix just... bothers me for some reason.
On that note, I know 'Love You 'Til Tuesday' is an absolute s**t song, but I love it so much. Also, 'Tired of My Life'. omgsqueeminibowie.
I am very coherent and intelligent, yo.

What? Do not like Bowie? o: *Gasp* I hereby deem this thread rediculous, and unreasonable! Nah, j/k. The only one I can think of off the top of my head right now is The Alabama Song. It scares me.... Other than that, I like pretty much every other song by him...
Oh, look. There was a monster in my cereal. OH And Thursday's child... I don't think it's the song I hate so much, but the video for it. ._.

Haha, I actually really like the Alabama Song, even though he sounds like a ***** in it. I think pretty much every song from 'David Bowie' is perfectly reasonable for hating. Though honestly there are only two or three off even that album that I don't enjoy. I quite like 'We Are Hungry Men'. SOYLENT GREEN IS MADE OF BOWIES. NOM NOM NOM.

Who stole the song from some musical.
And The Doors does it better. A lot. Seriously.
The only song I really hate with all my life is China Girl.
I can't stand that song. It's annoying and... just.. BLEH.
No other song annoys me. And I've got a good amount of his albums.
None. Just that one. -stabs it off of the Let's Dance CD-
I love the Thursday's Child music video. It's really deep.
And even The Laughing Gnome is amazing. I mean, think.
You get to HEAR Bowie's laughter. WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT!?
[/rant]
I'm really into Billy Idol right now.
I even put on black nail polish.
I feel hardcore.
Not really. [/random]

You shouldn't mess with me,
I'll ruin everything you are.
I'll give you television,
I'll give you eyes of blue,
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world."Not exactly a love song, haha. It's about drugs (cocaine or heroin, depending on how you interpret it) and imperialism, using the metaphor of an abusive relationship. Well, at least, that's the way most people have interpreted it. You know the Bowie, always being oblique with his lyrics. Oh, and it was co-written by Iggy Pop, hence, the uhm. Drugs. NOT THAT BOWIE DIDN'T INHALE HALF OF COLOMBIA'S ANNUAL EXPORTS. lmao, the crackwhore. Okay so they're probably both to blame for the drug references.

I'm also beginnig to HATE Changes and Space Oddity.
I've just heard them too much. Too much.
I really don't like Iggy Pop... for some reason..
It doesn't seem to be about drugs.
An abusive relationship MAYBE.
I'll have to think about it. (:

I'll have to think about it. (: Yeah you could try thinking, actually. It's pretty obvious, 'china white' being slang for heroine and lines like, "I could escape this feeling, with my china girl/I feel a wreck without my, little china girl" and "I'm a mess without my, little china girl/Wake up mornings wheres my, little china girl", and then the imperialism with, "I stumble into town just like a sacred cow/Visions of swastikas in my head/Plans for everyone/Its in the white of my eyes," and "I'll ruin everything you are/I'll give you television/I'll give you eyes of blue/I'll give you men who want to rule the world." And FINALLY, the opium reference -- as that's how the British broke China, before they carted them all off to Jamaica and Hawaii and such.

I'm actually trying to be a nice person..
There can be more than one message in a song.
Thanks for being mean. I LOVE YOU TOO.
"It's a reference to the doll like fragility of relationships, whether it's about his estranged wife or not is another matter - but Bowie has a history of writing about his own life and its influences.Bowie had such great hopes, destroyed by his own ambition, any number of times he did indeed like the Sacred Cow arrive to be slaughtered quite willingly. At one point he exhibited certain Nationalist beliefs and I think everybody remembers the "nazi" salute image that made him infamous (though in recent times he has merelu suggested it was the angle of the camera catching him at an inopportune time). "Man who wants to rule the world" - this is actually mentioned by another artist of the time "Ian Hunter" who wrote 'Boy' about a particular artist of the 70's. Some say it was Bowie, some say Bolan - but the simple fact Hunter refers to "genocidal tendancies" and similar obviously bare a lot of similarity to Bowies life more than Bolan. Is Bowie make an unacknowledged nod towards the former frontman of Mott The Hoople (for whom he'd written All The Young Dudes). Maybe." - Koncorde, ]http://www.songmeanings.net/lyric.php?lid=12603
