One thing needs to be made perfectly clear. David Bowie's Blackstar is the No.1 Album of 2016. We don’t feel like there is any other choice to be made here.
I find myself in a familiar place with David Bowie. Disoriented, but still captivated as ever, I simply can’t figure out who or what David Bowie was.
The first thing I heard today was that David Bowie had died. The buzz of my alarm, the radio announcing his death followed by the first notes of “Changes.”
The question will never stop being asked: is The Next Day album David Bowie's best album since Scary Monsters? And the answer will always be Does it matter?
