kill yrself this album is pure joy

That's cause it's a soul album you ignorant fuck. Try reading about the album yourself instead of going blindly into it just because some artist recommended it. Learn to think for yourself, you tool.

I only got into Young Americans after bowie died, going through his discography, and dammit, "Win" is such a good fucking song hot damn

After Pin Ups, that's his weakest 70's album to me.
The only track I actually enjoy is Fame

Somebody Up There Likes Me is arguably his best song

OP confirmed faggot

It’s funny, last year when we were making Fading Frontier I started to revisit Young Americans, which previously had never really been one of my favorites. I always preferred the records where he was sort of channeling something alien and darker and more strange—and that record just never felt that way to me. Maybe I just wasn’t the right age or it wasn’t the right time yet for me to really understand it, but now when I hear that record it just blows my mind. He can’t just simply interpret soul music the way most people might try to, he turns it into something angular and modernist and Bowie-like. It really speaks to me now in a way it didn’t before, which is also kind of the story of the way all of his records have functioned in my life. In the past 12 months I’ve listened to the song "Win" more than any other song in the world—the melancholy, the drama, the noir-ishness of the whole thing. That song is like a glove for my brain.

My first flight ever, was a trip to see my grandmother during the summer between second and third grade. Back then, you could listen to one song or another on the plane, and I listened to "Young Americans' about a hundred times on the way to Los Angeles from Ohio. When we got back to Ohio, I begged my mom to buy me that record. It was my first album and it was 4.99. The song 'Win' is one of my favorite songs, ever.

I like bowie a lot, I've been going steadily through his discography giving each album a few listens. The only two I couldn't make it through were this and his debut. For me it's the fucking saxophone solos.

what a couple of annoying cunts. terrible musicians too

My third favorite Bowie album desu

The album is so forgettable that even David doesn't remember making it.

He doesn't remember Station to Station either, and that's an indisputable masterpiece

You know it was liver cancer that killed him, right

>>61777297

if you cant get into multple and layered vocals why do you even try to listen to bowie?
just stick knives in your ears and complete your renunciation of the joy of sound.

Most of them before this album don't have sax. Also, I'd say most after this album don't have sax. At least no sax solos.
