Legendary entertainer David Bowie has been called out by the catholic league over his new “The Next Day” music video, which has called him a “switch-hitting bisexual senior citizen from London.” Strong words.

Catholic League President Bill Donahue called out Bowie in a blog post titled “Bowie’s “Jesus” video is a mess,”and he had quite a bit to say in the recent posting.

“David Bowie is back, but hopefully not for long. The switch-hitting, bisexual, senior citizen from London has resurfaced, this time playing a Jesus-like character who hangs out in a nightclub dump frequented by priests, cardinals and half-naked women.”

Donahue’s biggest issue with Bowie and his music video is the excess displayed in it, but he stills wonders if the entertainer still thinks about Religion. “Not sure what he believes in today (anyone who is “not quite an atheist” is not an atheist), but it’s a sure bet he can’t stop thinking about the Cadillac of all religions, namely Roman Catholicism,” Donahue writes. “There is hope for him yet.”

Something tells me Bowie could care less about what Donahue thinks.

I.M.

Fans and critics alike have long believed that the king of glam rock, David Bowie, had quietly settled into retirement. That’s why it came as such a surprise when Bowie celebrated his 66^th birthday by releasing a new song and announcing an upcoming album.

Just after midnight last night a new video “Where Are We Now” appeared on Bowie’s website along with the announcement that a new album The Next Day will be released come March. Bowie has not been seen in public much lately and many believed him to be in bad health but as it turns out Bowie has been hard at work back in the studio with long-time producer Tony Visconti, his collaborator on a dozen albums.

Critics were quick to review the new song and most are ecstatic over the comeback. Neil McCormick of the Daily Telegraph called the song “lush, stately, beautifully strange, weaving resonant piano chords, decaying synths and echoing drums around a single chord progression and a weary, tenderly understated, quietly defiant vocal. The elegiac new single may be the most surprising, perfect and welcome comeback in rock history.”
