Enigmatic.......2005-10-27

This is a very interesting collaboration of David Bowie and the Pet Shop Boys. One of the seminal recordings of Bowie from his early days was the song 'Major Tom', honoured in pastiche and remake of different groups. This piece thematically relates, as the theme of 'Spaceboy' talks not so much about space as in outer space, but rather the space in which we find ourselves (and in some ways, that was a theme of 'Major Tom', too).

The remix has Neil Tennant adding some backing vocals (it is surprising the number of songs of other groups and artists that end up having Tennant in the background). The remix makes this sound much more like a Pet Shop Boys song than a Bowie song, which makes the juxtaposition all the more interesting.

The disc includes a live version of David Bowie's 'Under Pressure' from the mid 1990s, a live version of 'Moonage Daydream', and the LP version of 'The Heart's Filthy Lesson'. The latter song was featured in the Brad Pitt/Morgan Freeman film 'Seven'.

This is an interesting little disc for Bowie fans, Pet Shop Boys fans, or those looking for something a little different but still pop/disco oriented.

Starting with a remix of "Hallo Spaceboy", a collaboration with B. Eno, the Pet Shop Boys have produced a memorable CD for my money.

The second song is a great version of "Under Pressure" with an almost etheral guest vocal from Gail Ann Dorsey recorded in 1995. Keeping with the live renditions, my all time favorite Bowie tune, "Moonage Daydream" follows. While not perhaps the most stirring version ever, it still evokes memories of an era that many of us feel was the most powerful time in the artist's career.

"The Hearts Filthy Lesson" finishes the four tune set and fittingly gives us the disjointed, high-anxiety piano riffs (attempts to emulate Mike Garson?) and beat that truly evokes a feeling that "we've lost our way" for a period of time here in the mid-ninties.
