E'mmm  66 is not old for a singer.  Look at the Stones, they don't sound really old.
Paul McCartney is 70 and he is still sounding good.   
Also Tina Turner who is 73 was looking and sounding great at her 2008 Concert at the age of 69  Bruce Springsteen 63 years old and still great....Tom Jones 72 fabulous voice.. not forgetting Shirley Bassey 75 years old. .. Elkie Brooks 67 years old and touring  Britain at the moment.
So..being 66 (bless David) is not a reason to sound old..  Lets face it he has made a stinker.
I was always a fan, but this is awful.

It would be quite odd that after such a career and no will or desire to release anything for 10 years, if he brought out a real stinker.

I did wonder, could it be a bit of a swan song - I recall Freddie Mercury released a track or two which all made sense when he died...hope not.

He wont get into the charts with the single released

Cant understand what all the Berlin references are about...Potzdamer Platz, Ka De We (The Harrods of Berlin), Nuremburger Strasse
Strange!

He was No1. before Bowie on the Liverpool Charity Single... Good on him, even with his 800 million in the Bank he still agreed to sing for free and help the cause...
