Grown Up A Cow

C.O. – “Life On Mars”

I saw this in somebody’s Eurodance folder on a P2P. Hmmm, I thought, could it be…? It was! And better than I could have imagined – the singer really goes for the song, erasing David Bowie’s fey, considered efforts in an avalanche of Eurobeat mania. No quarter given for accent (marvellously thick) or lyrics (somewhat broadly interpreted), and the actual tune – one of Bowie’s best – can blare out as the stomper it always was. Special extra bonus points for the terrace rhythm break near the end, too. Altogether now – “From Ibiza to the Norfolk Bloaurgh!”
