“You never knew that we could do that”
Hot-on-the-heels of the MOMUS cover of ‘Where Are We Now?’ (which was even hotter-on-the-heels of Bowie’s own version), London band Velvet Stream have now tackled the song too.
It’s poles apart from the MOMUS rendition, but that’s not to say it isn’t just as accomplished and equally affectionate.
Velvet Stream are a young, five-piece, female-led, alternative pop/rock band with a bright future ahead of them.
Take a moment to check out their delicious take on ‘Where Are We Now?’, you won’t regret it.

“There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper Low”
January 14 1977 saw the release of the first of what came to be known as Bowie's Berlin trilogy. That album was Low and it was followed later the same year by "Heroes" with the trilogy completed in 1979 by the arrival of Lodger.
Most of the music across the three albums wasn't even recorded in Berlin, the unifying factor actually being Bowie, Visconti and Eno. Low was a Bowie/Visconti production, and not a Brian Eno one as widely misreported.
