Nothing splendid
Was ever created in cold blood.
Heat is required
To forge anything.
Every great accomplishment
Is the story of a flaming heart.
Enjoyed David Bowie’s huge catalog of creativity. What a joy. May he rest in peace.

Have you listened to and watched “Black Star?” yet. He was a real showman right up until the end of his life here.

Johanna, wonderful tribute. We in Philadelphia are saddened because he recorded his first live album here as well as most all of “Young Americans.” Grew into popularity liking the Philly vibe. Sad day.

That is so interesting. I enjoyed his music but even more so the fact that I never knew who would take the stage and perform. So many reinventions on stage.

I have and all I can say is … WOW!
So many thoughts come to mind when I see it. Is he in a race with time? Writing his will? Or writing what he forgot to say to others.
He knows death is coming… (I think death is under the bed lurking etc.)
Just a phenomenal song… and how it all coincided, almost, with his death.
