Do you listen to David Bowie at all?

Does Omikron count?

Other than that, not all that much. I do like a few of his songs though (Space Odyssey comes to mind).

Every so often. I'd say about once a week or so.

I try not to. :P

Seriously...
There are a few Bowie songs that I like, but nothing recent.
I don't own any of his CD's, so I'd say it's whenever he's played on the radio.

Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."- General Sir Charles Napier

His old stuff is simply AWESOME and has actually aged well. His newest stuff I can do without. I'd say once a week, mostly stuff I catch on the radio, I rarely set out to slip a Bowie CD in the player.

1. I have no control over the stereo at work. We can only tune in 3 Channels. The Clasic Rock station, like most Classic Rock stations keeps us on a steady Diet of Bowie, Dylan, Dead, Ozzy, & Stones.

I've only heard him twice, and since I'm not the kind of guy that listens to CDs nowadays, the only chance I get to listen is on the radio. I thought his music was pretty good.

Bowie... Bowie... sounds vaguely familiar.

I don't think I've ever met the fella.

Any more helpful hints for the heathens?
Although, I don't really like Bowie, although I like Glam Rock, he was always Glam Pop to me...

In my wieghted playlist he represents about 1% of my total songs. Not the highest, but in the top 20. Saw him in concert once. Spiders From Mars Tour, IIRC.

Actually calling them Heathens is a helpful hint, as his most recently released (last september) album is "Heathen".
