Smiling girls and rosy boys, Come and buy my mp3s…
We’re running a new poll to try and find out where those of you that purchase digital music actually get it from. Click on the DISCOURSE tab above if you feel like contributing to our survey.
Meanwhile, the last poll we ran had a very healthy response of just over four thousand! (See screen grab above)
We asked: “In which decade did you first begin to appreciate the work of David Bowie?”, and though the overall winning decade of the 1970s with 37.18 percent of the vote was no big surprise, I couldn’t have predicted a couple of the other results.
Here’s the breakdown with responder amounts in parenthesis:
1960s = 6.41% (257)
1970s = 37.20% (1491)
1980s = 22.63% (907)
1990s = 15.47% (620)
2000s = 18.29% (733)
Total Responses: 4008
If any of the 257 people who selected the 1960s would like to contact me with their stories, I’d love to hear them…unless, of course, your qualifying statement is: “I heard Space Oddity on the radio”!
Similarly, it would be great to hear from some of the 733 of you that have started enjoying David’s music in the past five years. How did you stumble upon his work in the first place?
