Bowie has just been aping off everyone else's style. nothing > unique any more. for all it's worth, 'earthling' was some of the most ridiculously obnoxious techno/drum n bass i've ever heard, yes, but the bowie take was quite original on its own. if you think about it, 'diamond dogs' was just normal rock n roll... but i'll take 'rebel rebel' over any rolling stones song anytime. that said, i'm not that crazy about david bowie but at least he has the merit of rarely doing the same thing twice. ~ david
