Listen to one of David Bowie’s final songs ‘Killing a Little Time’
One of David Bowie’s final three studio recordings before his untimely death has premiered online.
Titled ‘Killing a Little Time’, the powerful and emotionally charged track explored similar jazz-infused rock territories as ‘Blackstar’ with a spattering on ‘Outside’ era sounds on top.
Just like the other final songs ‘No Plan’ and ‘When I Met You’, the song was recorded with Tony Visconti and the same musical ensemble used on ‘Blackstar’.
Have a listen to it here:
'No Plan', 'Killing a Little Time' and 'When I Met You' feature on ‘Lazarus Cast Album’ – a collection of songs from Bowie’s musical – which is released this Friday (21st October).
Written by Bowie and Irish playwright Enda Walsh and starring Dexter/Six Feet Under actor Michael C Hall as Thomas Jerome Newton, Lazarus opened in New York late last year and ran until 20th January 2016. It's a sequel to Walter Tevis's novel The Man Who Fell to Earth.
Bowie himself, of course, starred in the 1976 film adaptation of The Man Who Fell to Earth, directed by Nicholas Roeg.
