Can you imagine the look on Iggy Pop's face the first time he heard what Bowie had done to 'Tonight'

0.0 fluxkit | January 22nd 13

I like "Loving The Alien," "Blue Jean" is decent (though disposable), and the album closer is at least somewhat fun. The other tracks range from cringe-worthy, to something like crimes against music.

Gets a 2.5 for a rad opener, shame the rest of it was wack

This thing actually has some interesting material (Tumble and Twirl is great). Its consistency is a problem, however.

2.0 poorTom93M | August 9th 11

Whether it was a favour to a friend, a sad demonstration of artistic drought, a cash generator or a combination of all three, Tonight shapes up as consistently average listen - hence it disappointing status for long-term fans who've experienced bigger and better Bowie records. Apart from its two highlights, 'Loving The Alien' and 'Blue Jean' (which aren't all that astounding, anyway), Tonight represents the first Bowie album in a long time that can be well and truly skipped by all but the absolute devout.

2.5 averageJarvig | May 31st 11

Let's Dance light. Nothing special. Blue Jean is a good track. Tonight and God Only Knows are okay tracks. The rest is sub-standard Bowie material.
