DAVID BOWIE "EART HL I NG" cd, 1997.
his 21st solo album (23rd if you count the two Tin Machine albums)...
album is really alternative as it just doesnt fit anywhere else but also could fit everywhere..
drum n bass, disco, hard rock, alternative, electro-punk, this album has it all...
basically i tell people this is his version of Prodigy's "fat of the land" to sum it up...
album must be played loud to totally appreciate it and it just gets better with age...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
lead off single is not my favorite on the album but i thought others on the forum might be more responsive if it is mentioned this track was co-written/produced by Brian Eno.
Johnny's in America, no tax at the wheel
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
No-one needs anyone, they don't even just pretend
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Johnny's in America....
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
(repeat)
Johnny's in America
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Johnny wants a brain, Johnny wants to suck on a coke
Johnny wants a woman, Johnny wants to think of a joke
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah).
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
(repeat)
Johnny's in America, Johnny looks up at the stars
Johnny combs his hair and Johnny wants pussy in cars
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Johnny's in America (ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah).
I'm afraid of Americans
I'm afraid of the world
I'm afraid I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
(repeat)
God is an American
