Yeah there's some definite guilt when I listen to it knowing full well that I enjoy it more because of something so tragic. Huge conflict of ears vs. conscience.

So it seems that Lazarus has charted decently in the UK, pretty cool, hope it does that same in the US when those charts come in...

Imagine if that think happenned to be shitty.



You're listening to it, you think: "well... this is ambarassing....". Then two days later he dies. Imagine how bad you would feel.

So he's gonna get his first No. 1 album in the US

He's getting a lot of radio play over here for his classics and the newer tracks, warms my heart

He's been in the front page of iTunes Store for a while now too

I'm still pretty confused about what the bridge of Lazarus has to do with anything. "I was looking for your ass"? Like what does that mean

Like the rest of the song's lyrics seem pretty clearly to be about death, but the bridge sounds like it's from a different song entirely. It kind of muddies the meaning of the song. Maybe he intended it that way?

Oh yeah, there are track commentaries in Spotify already, and he says about Lazarus that "[I] wanted to mess with Arcade's head, contributor of this jolly good site, sputnikmusic".

I honestly don't have a clue, maybe David got to New York, blew his money on strippers ("I was living like a king") and now he's looking for another ass but he can't because he's got no money left.



Then he says the "this way or no way you know I'll be free" line and you start welling up.

The whole bridge is about losing your youth on stupid meaningless stuff (and drugs). I interpret that "you" as is wife. At that time he was more looking for sweet asses than the happiness he got with her.



If you're not satisfied by my explanation, genius.com (http://genius.com/8503574) suggests that it is about Lezarus (Bowie) looking for Jesus coming in Jerusalem on a donkey. I think my explanation is less retarded.

Album Rating: 5.0

While it could simply be a somewhat vulgar, angry way of saying “looking for you,” he could also be referencing Jesus' entrance into Jerusalem. As described in the gospels, Jesus rode into the city on a donkey and was greeted like a king.



The contributors to genius.com are fucking idiots. Ironic.

"it makes for sick irony that the context of his death enhances this so much."

Nothing sick about it. The album was made with this on the back of his mind the whole time. Bowie's death is a literal part of this album.
