This single, limited to 8,147 copies, is intriguing. It's a double A-side, a phrase to make listeners of a certain age swoon. Both songs are covers, hitherto unreleased and recorded in 1997-98, when Bowie was a bit lost, en route from his flirtation with drum'n'bass on Earthling to the soft-rock mellowness of Hours.
Both songs are written by giants. Mother (1970) is John Lennon at his most Lennonish - turning his back on The Beatles, undergoing primal-scream therapy, making music of blazing starkness.
For Bowie, who preferred to be more artful, it's a characteristically bold choice.]
