David Bowie was not one to disappoint fans, and he still won't disappoint, even in death. The beloved superstar will be releasing at least one more album to the world, and it comes out next month.

The cast album for Bowie's musical Lazarus is set to release on October 21, and is said to include some new recordings by Bowie himself. So, not only will fans get to listen to Michael C. Hall belt out in song in the cast recordings, but they will also get the sweet sound of Bowie singing "No Plan," "Killing a Little Time," and "When I Met You."

What's more, this album is up for this year's Mercury Prize, a prize that has alluded Bowie in the past. Twice now, he has been nominated for the award, which is given to the year's best album by a UK or Irish performer, in 2002 for Heathens and 2013 for The Next Day. This year he will be going up against Radiohead and The 1975.

Hopefully Hall's performance of the title track of Lazarus during the ceremony will help give Bowie the upper hand for the award.

Though Bowie fans are sure to love everything the Lazarus album has in store, it is known that before the star passed away from cancer, he was working on another album. Though it's unsure if those tracks will ever see the light of day, fans can cross fingers, say prayers, and wish on shooting stars that it does.
