"Suede bassist Mat Osman has said that David Bowie made a &amp;quot;smart&amp;quot; choice by picking &amp;#039;Where Are We Now?&amp;#039; as his comeback single. The pop icon released the surprise track online last month, one day after Suede&amp;#039;s own return with free download &amp;#039;Barriers&amp;#039;.    &amp;gt; Ten Things About... David Bowie &amp;quot;I figured from what people said that he was never going to make a record, or that he wasn&amp;#039;t well,&amp;quot; Osman told Digital Spy. &amp;quot;I was really glad. The idea that for nothing - just appearing out of nowhere - you get a new David Bowie track. You can&amp;#039;t really be churlish about that. It&amp;#039;s a good thing to happen.&amp;quot; Asked what he made of the track, Osman added: &amp;quot;It took me a long time... I thought it was a really interesting choice. &amp;quot;I thought he was really smart. That he thought, &amp;#039;What have I got that&amp;#039;s going to take the longest to get into?&amp;#039; - because people are going to take the effort with it. &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s a beautiful thing, but it did take me a little while.&amp;quot; Suede&amp;#039;s first studio album since 2002&amp;#039;s A New Morning is titled Bloodsports, and is released on March 18. The Next Day, Bowie&amp;#039;s long-awaited follow-up to 2003&amp;#039;s Reality, is released on March 8 in Berlin, March 11 in the UK and March 12 in the US/Canada.
