Reseña
"Never Let Me Down" es el álbum 17 en la discografía de David Bowie y fue lanzado el 20 de abril de 1987 por el sello EMI. El álbum fue concebido por Bowie como la base para una gira mundial, un musical teatralizado, con canciones escritas por el propio Bowie y grabaciones realizadas en los estudios Mountain, en Suiza.
El álbum suponía un retorno de Bowie al rock y contó con tres sencillos de apoyo, "Day-In Day-Out", "Time Will Crawl" y "Never Let Me Down". Resultó ser uno de los álbumes más vendidos de David Bowie, colocándose entre los diez primeros en varios países y en el puesto 34 en las listas de Estados Unidos.
A pesar de tener buenos registros de ventas, el álbum fue mal acogido por los fans tradicionales de Bowie y por la mayor parte de la crítica especializada, que apreciaba un bajón creativo importante en la obra del artista británico.
La gira mundial "Glass Spider Tour" fue la más ambiciosa de todas en las que se había embarcado Bowie y resultó igualmente un éxito comercial. Las críticas, por contra, siguieron siendo negativas y tras este fracaso creativo, Bowie decidió formar un nuevo grupo llamado Tin Machine, con el que grabaría dos álbumes, "Tin Machine" y "Tin Machine II", no volviendo a publicar en solitario hasta que en 1993 lanzó "Black Tie White Noise".

[X]letra de Beat Of Your Drum
Photograph king, watches you go
Fashions may change, heaven knows,
But you still leave a stain on me
Supplement queen,
Your colours may fade
Seasons may change, weather blows, but you still leave a
Mark on me
Wrong-negative fades-never the twain, reckless and tame
I like the beat of your drum
I like to look in your eyes
I like to look thru your things
I'd like to beat on your drum
I like the smell of your flesh
I like the dirt that you dish
I like the clothes that you wear
I'd like to beat on your drum
Disco brat-follow the pack
Watching you peel, heaven knows, prison can't hold all
This greedy intention
Vanity's child-picture you now
Music may change-hi-di-ho keen to follow your nose
Wrong-love out of tune
Sweet is the night,
Bright light destroys me
[Chorus:]
I like the beat of your drum
I like to look in your eyes
I like to look thru your things
I'd like to beat on your drum
I like the smell of your flesh
I like the dirt that you dish
I like the clothes that you wear
I'd like to beat on your drum
I'd like to beat on your drum
I'd like to beat on your drum
I like your face in the crowd
I'd like to beat on your drum
I'd like to beat on your drum
I'd like to beat on your drum
I'd like to blow on your horn
I'd like to beat on your drum - Never Let Me Down 4:05

[X]letra de Glass Spider
Up until one century ago there lived,
In the Zi Duang province of eastern country
A glass-like spider
Having devoured it's prey it would drape the skeletons
Over it's web
In weeks creating a macabre
Shrine of remains
Its web was also unique in that it had many layers
Like floors in a building
At the top of this palace-like place, assembled with
Almost apparent
Care, were tiny, shining objects, glass, beads, dew-drops
One could almost call it an altar
When the breeze blew
Thru this construction
It produced sounds of wailing, crying
Tiny wails, tiny cries
The baby spiders would get scared and search frantically for their mother.
But the Glass Spider would have long gone, having known that the babies
Would survive somehow
On their own.
Oh-The Glass Spider had blue eyes almost like-a human's.
They she'd tears at the wintered turn of the centuries.
Don't you hear this wasted cry,
Life is over you
(Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone)
But you've seen who's in heaven. Is there anyone in hell
(Mummy come back 'cause it's dark now)
Take care, take care.
(Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone)
Somewhere she glows divine. Somewhere she wakes alone.
But you, you've promise
In your lovin' eye.
God it's dark now.
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah
Gone, Gone the water's all gone
Mummy come back
'cause the water's all gone
Stay low on the ground, fire can drive you,
Savage and afraid
Spitting the dawn, come come come along
Before the animals awake
Run, run, we've been moving all night, rivers to the left.
If your mother don't love you then the riverbed might
Gone, gone, the water's all gone
Mummy come back
'cause the water's all gone
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah
Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah
Gone gone the water's all gone
Mummy come back
'cause the water's all gone - Shining Star (Makin' My Love) 5:04
