I dont hate it, but I find Black Tie White Noise embarrasingly poor.

Actually I take it back, BTWN has some beautiful moments, although at some points I was sat there thinking "Why is he singing like that?!".

As for hours..., I still really like it, although it is a bit too much as an album, but if you dip in an out of it it's quite good.

Space Oddity is far too whiny and bland musically, the title track and Wild Eyed... being the only things gaining any sort of worthy recognition.
