Listen To The Best Song David Bowie Never Wrote

They say that writing hit songs is not an exact science, but “they” are clearly uninformed cretins whose opinions should not be trusted – a scientist in the UK has written what he claims is the ‘ideal’ David Bowie song.

From NewsLite.tv:

An academic has used a scientific analysis of David Bowie’s career to write a song which would a be guaranteed chart success for the star. Using something called Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count, Dr Nick Troop compared the language used and success in the charts of all of Bowie’s 26 albums and 266 songs.

The Psychology expert from the University of Hertfordshire found that songs with positive emotion and social processes had been the artists more successful. Based on his findings the Bowie fan then penned a song ‘Team, Meet Girls; Girls, Meet Team’ which he claims (according to psychological theory) should lead to success if Bowie was to release it.

I bet you’re curious and wondering how exactly this ‘idea’ David Bowie song sounds. Am I right? Lucky for you, Dr Troop has helpfully recorded it and popped it onto YouTube!

What do you think?

You may want to start it halfway unless you like the science bit.
