tbh this is probably better than Outside



Less faux-Twin Peaks, more David Bowie making steamy dance club music no one wants

'tbh this is probably better than Outside'



Outside is a lot less immediate than this but it has the staying power

I dig the aesthetic of 'Outside' a lot and it has a good mix of tunes plus Eno/Garson/Gabrels works out well

Subtlety be damned! As an authority on all things Bowie (last year was in the top 0.01% of Bowie listeners on Spotify!), and someone who’s heard this and all of his albums about 4 or 5 times, calling this better than Outside should be a crime punishable by permaban!

I've probably listened to both this and 'Outside' close to fifty times each ('90s my era - I remember clearly that I stayed up to hear the Earthling tracks on a radio show before release) so yeah, my position on Outside being my preferred of the two is pretty much set in stone

Thats fine as long as you check out "tonight" and "never let me down" the rest you can do without really.
