[kj] ot. new bauhaus C.D, ;( what a let down!

[sade1]

>  i just always thought that -bauhaus wripping them off was unessary 

   
    It says on Youtube  that Bowie himself has said Murphy's singing of 
  Ziggy Stardust was the way it should be sung (or was it Space Oddity?). 
  But if someone knows of any dirty detail of Bauhaus taking anything, do share. :) 
   
     I think it is a fine and dotted, swervy, loopy line between manifesting art 
  inevitably via your influences and inspirations, and straight-out ripping them 
  off *cough-cough*NirvanaofKillingJoke*cough-cough-fart* and i feel, IMO, 
  that Bauhaus didn't violate that distinction. 
    If anyone knows of any, I would love to read an interview with both Bowie and 
  anyone from Bauhaus addressing that mini-issue.

although i do like bowie and t-rex as artists,i just always thought that -bauhaus wripping them off was unessary seeing as bauhaus has there own unique style,i wonder why they didnt use it this time around and after all those years ;/!
