abstract
  • %22Loving the Alien%22 is a track from the album Tonight by David Bowie. One of only two tracks on the album written solely by Bowie, the song was a surprisingly late release as a single (coming nine months after the release of %22Blue Jean%22 as a single, and eight months after the album), reputedly because Bowie read a review saying it would make a good single.It was remixed as a single and issued in May 1985. Considering the age of the track (the music market had changed considerably since the day RCA could release a two-year-old album track and be rewarded by a top 3 hit, as with %22Life on Mars?%22), the single performed well, reaching No. 19 in the UK.
