      The most beautiful voice in the world is Liz Frasier of The Cocteau Twins. "Lazy Calm" and "Orange Appled" are great examples out of 100s songs. One reviewer (either Melody Maker or NME) called her voice, 'the sound of God singing." It is pure emotion, as her strong Scottish accent made the words/lyrics inaccessible to most English, American, Canadian, and Australian audiences. Thus the emotive quality of the trio was even more outstanding. Ah, before vox coder and pitch shifter mixings. Pure, authentic, angelic. My favorite is "The Spangle Maker."

    I was lucky enough to see him live in 1979. I can't tell how incredible his stage presence was. He also had some amazing guitarists over the years. When I saw him it was Adrian Belew. But in later years had had Stevie Ray Vaughn on a few studio songs.

      Gail Ann has three albums, the last was in 2004. Apart from being a great bassist, she also has a wonderful voice. Possibly my favourite track(s) of her's are the instrumental SW4 which runs into Wishing I Was Someone Else. The former showing Gail's skill with an acoustic guitar and the latter focusing on her powerful vocals.

    Bowie, like McCartney had SO many different voices in that one body and like here, would often use several of them in one song. Apart from his songwriting talent, his vocal ability alone put him in the top tier of world-class pop musicians.

    Thank you for your choice and happy to see you enjoying Bowie and your honest and always pleasant reactions and analysis. Congratulations.
    I'm 62 and I was a fan of the early Bowie. Without a doubt there are three incredible tours: Ziggy Stardust tour of '73, Diamond Dogs and Serious Moonlight.
    I suggest you see the 1973 Hammersmith Odeon concert for yourself. Pure Ziggy, pure Glamm, pure Bowie, brilliant artist. With a fantastic Mick Ronson.
    In addition to being a totally iconic it's also legendary concert. Bowie, just before performing Rock 'n Roll Suicide, addresses the audience and in a speech says goodbye, says goodbye and unexpectedly for everyone, including his band, breaks up with the Spiders from Mars.
    Keep on rocking Beth❤

    When I saw Bowie on his first mini-tour of the States in support of Hunky Dory, he gave the distinct impression of channeling Mary Martin’s tv portrayal of Peter Pan. I saw a documentary recently where this song was juxtaposed with him talking about not being good enough to go a jazz saxophone route, but knew he could fake being a pop/rock singer well enough.

    The singing on this later version is better than the original, and incorporates aspects of his later singing style. The Bowie song that may think is his best vocal performance is Wild is the Wind from the Station to Station Album. You should try that.

    David Bowie credits Anthony Newley as one of his strong early influencers. He said he was fascinated by music that defied conventional expectations.
    If you're familiar with Anthony Newley it's probably through his songs for films, especially the original Newley/Bricusse songs for Willy Wonka including "Candy Man" and "Pure Imagination." If you could do a Newley performance I'd love to hear your insights and comparison to Bowie. Maybe "Who Can I Turn To?" from the Ed Sullivan Show and "Life on Mars"? Even if you don't do a reactionalysis, I think you'd enjoy the comparisons.

    On the meta layers element, he's changed the pronouns and some of the verb tenses here from the original lyrics so that the speaker is now identified with the older generation rather than the children ("we've left them up to their necks in it," instead of "they've left us up to our necks in it") and is also looking back rather than forward ("didn't wanna be" vs "don't wanna be").

    It's the chord changes that are reminding you of the Beatles. At this point, Bowie was pretty much just breezing through this song. I think he had played it so many times there was no thrill in singing it anymore. His versions of Starman at this same time period are an even better example of Bowie just breezing through a song. If you want to hear a song where his voice was really shining in this period, check out The Motel. czcams.com/video/dB6t2OyFBHE/video.html
