Jan 4, 2020Em sua época de lançamento esse álbum trouxe Bowie de volta ao páreo
É um álbum muito bom e que resgata Bowie com músicas com melodias e letras afiadas como sombria "Sunday" -

AlexanderSDec 22, 2005Overall a very good album, none of my alltime favourite Bowie songs come from this album, but there´s not a single bad song on it.... Bowie is and will always be the single greatest musician ever!

KiwiClayOct 13, 2005Despite the flaws, Heathen has got to be the best Bowie in years - far superior to the following Reality. At times the music is transcendent. This CD must be listened to with headphones on, eyes closed, and no interruptions. There aren't very many CDs or artists who warrant that level of listening commitment.

JoshC.Jun 11, 2002Bowie has created another complete 'album' which like 'A Man who sold the World' demands a complete listen from start to finish and leaves the listener with a seamless sonic story implanted in their psyche. The covers fit in perfectly and musically it remains true to Bowie's legacy- A musican among musicans.

While the songwriting ain't bad, it also ain't that good.

UncutNone of the 12 tracks on Heathen displays anything memorable in the way of melody or chorus, their phrasing short-breathed and tired, their sequences energyless. [Jul 2002, p.108]

Whatever you're going to make of 'Heathen', you'll probably agree it's Bowie's most eclectic effort for some time - and a damn enjoyable, rockahula listening pleasure.
