David Bowie hasn’t released a single in 10 years, but the Changes singer celebrated his 66th birthday on Jan. 8 by releasing a brand new single on his website titled Where Are We Now. The new track is off of a forthcoming album, The Next Day.

The single came as a complete shock to fans –and was dropped with no forewarning. Where Are We Now is the singer’s first single in 10 years, and came in the form of an eclectic music video directed by Tony Oursler. 

In the video, David’s face is attached to what looks like conjoined twin babies. It also features long shots of Berlin, where David lived during the 1970s. Rolling Stone notes that the places are some of David’s familiar spots from when he lived there.

David Bowie’s Career Comeback

The Next Day is David’s 30th studio recording, and comes 46 years after his self-titled debut album in 1967. As the pop star gets older, the song follows suit with a slow, aging melody. It proves the next phase of the rocker following a long, iconic career that has varied from glam rock to ’80s synthesized pop.

His latest album, The Next Day, drops in March, but a spokesperson for the singer told the Daily Mail that he has no plans to tour yet.

He’s no superhero, but you’ll love a buff Jake as a time-traveling soldier!

Jake Gyllenhaal has to save Chicago from a terrorist attack in the thrilling Source Code, one of the most fun movies of the season! Jake plays a time-traveling soldier who can take the identity of a dead person for the last eight minutes of their life in order to solve crimes. Chicago is on the brink of disaster, and Jake is the only one who can stop the terrorist force in time!

HollywoodLife.com saw the movie at The Cinema Society & Coach screening on March 31 and loved it. Here are five great reasons to go see Source Code!

1) After misfiring as an action lead in the failed fantasy Price of Persia: The Sands Of Time, Jake definitely makes an impression as the compassionate lead of this thriller. We’ve loved him in romantic fare such as Love and Other Drugs, but he certainly has the gravitas and physique to carry a thoughtful action picture.

2) Even though there is a terrorist attack to contend with, Jake has plenty of time to romance his costar Michelle Monaghan, and the two have great chemistry as star-crossed lovers with shifting identities. It’s one of the best and most unexpected romances of the year.

3) The heart of this action sci-fi thriller is the mystery of the bomber’s identity, and it will keep you guessing from the beginning to the shocking reveal. It’s great fun putting the clues together and trying to figure out the mystery before Jake does.

4) The movie is expertly directed by Duncan Jones — the son of David Bowie –who brings a deft hand to the intricate web of action and plotting that develops. It would be easy to make many of these time traveling scenes seem flat onscreen, but Duncan has the uncanny ability to keep the narrative flowing.

5) It seems like every big-budget movie is set in either New York City or Los Angeles, so it was nice to see Chicago get a bit of love. The city is almost a character itself, with great aerial shots showcasing the sprawling beauty of some of the area’s best landmarks.

After the screening at the Crosby Street Hotel, celebrities who attended the Source Code afterparty were treated to Purity Vodka martinis and cocktails.
