I won't stay in
Get things done
I catch a paper boy
But things don't really change
I'm standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
There's no sign of life
It's just the power to charm
I'm lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
Never gonna fall for (modern love)
Walks beside me (modern love)
Walks on by (modern love)
Gets me to the church on time (church on time)
Terrifies me (church on time)
Makes me party (church on time)
Puts my trust in god and man (God and man)
No confessions (God and man)
No religion (God and man)
Don't believe in modern love
It's not really work
It's just the power to charm
I'm still standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
Never gonna fall for (modern love)
Walks beside me (modern love)
Walks on by (modern love)
Gets me to the church on time (church on time)
Terrifies me (church on time)
Makes me party (church on time)
Puts my trust in god and man (God and man)
No confessions (God and man)
No religion (God and man)
Don't believe in modern love
(Modern love), (modern love), (modern love)
(Modern love) modern love walks beside me (modern love)
(Modern love) modern love walks on by (modern love)
(Modern love) modern love walks beside me (modern love)
(Modern love) modern love walks on by (modern love)
(Modern love) never gonna fall for (modern love)
(Modern love), (modern love), (modern love)
Same tour, Oakland stadium - without doubt, the best show of the 120 I’ve gone to…. By far. Oh man, the stage presence he had that night. Had 80k people in the palm of his hand
I was supposed to see him in Syracuse NY on that tour, but we got snowed out. Or in. I'm still disappointed.
Caught him at Washington DC's Capital Centre two weeks prior back in '83. STILL one of the 3 or 4 best concerts that I have ever seen in nearly 4 decades of shows. The setlist, the costumes, the stage show, and the production set a standard that few bands have matched over the years.
Same tour, but Hartford Civic Center for me. Just incredible.
Wow! No wonder I loved this album so much when I bought it....
Fantastic information on RadioParadise, as well as killer music! Thanks everybody, and thanks very much to you, Bill!
No doubt... a lot of crybabies on this thread. The constant "wah, wah, wah!" of some of these posters is tedious.
Careful, though, they may not all be Americans.
They also seem to not realise there's a "NEXT" button right beside the "PLAY" button.
Don't like a song? Hit NEXT.
But whinging like a 4-year-old I guess is the preferred option.

Great album! Are you INSAAAANE?
Per various SRV sources: Vaughan showed up for rehearsals in Dallas in April (soundboard tapes from the rehearsals exist), but Vaughan showed up with a cocaine habit, a hard-partying wife and an entourage looking for easy access to drugs. Given that Bowie himself had moved to Berlin in the late 1970s to try and kick his own cocaine habit, Bowie and Vaughan's management failed to come to an agreement on how to
temper the situation, and in the end Vaughan pulled out of the tour. Vaughan was replaced by longtime Bowie guitarist Earl Slick.
Carlos Alomar, long time Bowie collaborator, served as band director and guitarist on the tour as well.

Whats so MEH about this?
Yes, the production is dated!
But this song is a great piece of art!
Check out this accoustic cover to see for yourself.
I know, silly to comment on my own comment, but I have always wanted (since the introduction of internet radio) wanted to create a sax solo playlist...

More Peter Gabriel PLEASE
I understand these sentiments, and I won't argue, but I would like to provide an alternate view.
Bowie I think simply ignored anything like a label, category, or box, and pursued his own artistic vision. Most times he led, occasionally he followed, but always produced music with his unique interpretation. That doesn't mean you should or should not like any particular work of his, that's your entirely subjective evaluation, one I believe he recognized, and did what he did knowing full well that not all fans would accept or like everything he did. He did it anyway.
So expect anything you like from Bowie or from any true artist: they're going to do what they do regardless of anyone's expectation.
Peace.
I agree with a lot of what you say. However this period was not in my view an Artist pursuing a unique vision, but a cynical cash in take the Money and run project. I doubt that Bowie liked it much but he needed a hit at the time. He deployed a similar strategy with Young Americans but that resulted in vastly superior output. Nice Roger's should be ashamed about what he did to China Girl that candy arsed culturally insensitive intro makes me cringe. Bowie was struggling to write worthwhile material at the time and resorted to plundering the Iggy Berlin stuff for diminishing returns .

Yes this is very poppy but hey after the three Berlin albums and "Scary Monsters" we all deserved something lighter. Apparently getting off the cocaine habit helped David's mood.
Big Bowie fan though I was never too fond of the Let's Dance album. "Modern Love" is the definite exception. Great tune. You can't help but bust a move when this one is cranked up.
I found myself thinking the same way.

Remember that lovely era when you could just flash some ID at the Canadian border, tell them where you were going and for how long, and then they'd wave you through in about 3 minutes after giving you "the once-over"? I miss those days.
I'm pretty sure it was the last song that night, as Dave and his backup singers waved us "bye-bye', and we climbed back into my crappy '76 SAAB and drove home.
Never been a fan of this Bowie but really love the cover done by Last Town Chorus…

A guy who lives in England, and listens to RP, and your only Bowie album is Lets Dance??? Huh??
I know and that IMHO is the reason, this album is so good

I couldn't agree more.

I can't this is a work of staggering artistic genius, but it does make me dance in my chair. And that's a good thing.
