デヴィッド・ボウイさんのインスタグラム写真 - (デヴィッド・ボウイInstagram)「DAILY BOWIE THING – Day 29 “And you'll believe you're loving the alien...” For #BowieSheetMusicSunday we’re focusing on Loving The Alien, released to accompany the 1985 release of the third and final single from the Tonight album. Loving The Alien was the opening track on 1984’s chart-topping Tonight and one of just two tracks on it written solely by Bowie, the other being the first single, Blue Jean. The sheet music was no doubt made available following the success of the previous singles and the LP itself, which attained gold status in the UK and Platinum in the US. The album was released as a complete music book in its own right too. Though fond of the song, Bowie later said that the production undid the power of the lyric and that he preferred the demo version. Loving The Alien was a highlight on various Bowie tours, most notably on 2003/2004’s A Reality Tour where a powerful stripped-down version was performed with Gerry Leonard on guitar being the only accompaniment. Of this latter arrangement Bowie said that it was perhaps: “the way it should have always been done.” A video with flavours of the paintings of Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico, was co-directed by Bowie with David Mallet and included a brief scene of Bowie suffering a nosebleed. Though this scene appears on the Day-In Day-Out video EP it was edited out for later versions. If you don’t have easy access to the Day-In Day-Out video EP here’s the censored version anyway, as it’s hard to find a good quality version of the original online: https://smarturl.it/LTAcensoredYT (Temp link in bio) #DailyBowieThing #BowieSheetMusicSunday #BowieLovingTheAlien」11月30日 4時09分
