Hey There! This has been a lot of fun getting this page going. I'm new to this whole game so bear with me.

I just watched my first episode of "Punk'd" and boy is that Ashton Kutcher a sly devil! I can't wait until I'm famous enough to get "Punk'd"!

So has anyone heard the latest David Bowie album? I have and I can tell that this album is definitely on the right track. "Heathen" was a good album but I thought it was missing something, it felt too light. I hate to say it but Bowie is best these days playing a tragic character or an angry one. His albums are best when splashes of these emotions pepper an album.

"Realities", I feel has this. Just enough of each to get your attention. I must warn you though that this review is coming from someone who loved "Outside" and is still eagerly awaiting chapters 2 & 3.

Having said that Bowie proves he can still bring the rock on the tracks "Looking For Water" and "Realities". The covers are fun but I think what really brings this album together is the last track, "Bring Me The Disco King". A taste of that tragic character I mentioned earlier. His voice never sounded better and proves that not only is he the "Thin White Duke" but the "Thin White Crooner" also.

This is a solid album that even a casual listener would find appealing. So run out there a buy this album!
