Reviews"...his most straight-forward rock album in nearly two decades. Giving the post-glam wankers who've cribbed his classic sound a run for their money....he continues to pull off fresh, unexpected things as only a chameleon of his caliber could.", 4 out of 5 - "...a masterpiece....Solidly built around songs...and aware that songs need some depth as well....HOURS finds Bowie returning to basics he never should have left behind....it could be his second childhood.", Ranked #30 in Mojo Magazine's "Best of 1999in, "...a concept album about what a drag it is getting old....the 52-year-old Bowie dares to feel tired, or maybe just really wistful, in this regret-filled song cycle....Given that the theme is maturity's flickering light, the pacing is probably deliberate..." - Rating: B-, 4 stars out of 5 - "...the Dame's latest LP is...just as good as they used to be....Bowie sounds influenced by nobody except himself, and he couldn't have picked a better role model.", 3 Stars Out of 5-"Steeped in Low-Like Melancholia.", "...crowns a trilogy 1.OUTSIDE & 2.EARTHLING that represents sigificantly more than a mere coda to a once-unimpeachable career....HOURS possesses a melancholy that runs deeper than mere pre-Millennium tension and one or two rueful meditations on his life...", Included in Q Magazine's "50 Best Albums of 1999.", 4 stars out of 5 - "...as nakedly emotive a collection as anything in his iconic catalog; it's a summary statement from the man who invented postmodern rock & roll....HOURS is a testament to the serenity that comes with legend status, maturity and endurance...", 6 out of 10 - "...His latest stab at relevance works best when it most resembles those simple anguished moments 'The Man Who Sold The World' and 'Andy Warhol'....HOURS attempts to reclaim the eternally hip early-'70s Bowie..."
