have you noticed the world has turned to s**t since David Bowie died?

Liner Notes

I had this title written down most of February but couldn't find anywhere appropriate to use it until I stuck it onto this chord sequence I'd recorded a few days ago.

I think I'll reuse the chorus melody but write some lyrics that don't sound like they've been written by ChatGPT!

sounds like something morrissey might have written. he loved bowie, but made some bratty remarks about him when he was younger. i love it when humorous title refrains are sung to a gorgeous melody by a top flight crooner.

I really like this, sounds like a great album closer. Being a man of simple tastes, I appreciate how you've leaned into some prettier melodies this month, and this might be the pick of the bunch. I'm keen to hear what you do if you reuse it.

With a title like that I couldn’t resist stopping by! The atmosphere does work well with the chord progression and the wistful vocal also matches the whole “if you ask me I would say there’s nothing left for us to say”. Wish it was longer, definitely a fragment worth developing 💚

Ha- you’re on to something there! Those descending chords are a perfect setting for this lyric. Nice!

It's a good idea to develop, becuase it's the God's honest truth! Bowie and Prince both...ripped the damn space-time continuum, it did...I dig the concept.
