Superman 02-06-2023 04:38 PM

I get it too. Bowie was the Real Deal. Far more substance than just someone who dresses funny. Far.

I didn't always get it, but he was so prolific and he would change himself up so often, that my tastes would align with what he was doing a lot of the time. Like a couple of out of sync windshield wipers, on a regular basis, they would sync up perfectly for a few strokes.

I was blown away by Space Oddity, like everyone was, and I was blown away when he starred in The Man Who Fell To Earth.

And then, when watching Inglorious Bastards, this was perfectly placed...

(And his final, Lazarus, as shown above was the perfect ending. We should all be so lucky)

I'm going to have to watch that movie (IB) again...just for that part.

I saw FM and Queen at their 'Champions of the World' tour live in 1981?
They rocked the arena.

I think Bowie was a genius. His versatility reminds me of David Byrne. A pretty good actor, if you ask me. The perfect choice for the alien Tommy Newton in The Man Who Fell to Earth in 1976. Watch the part starting at 1:00.

I had a job setting up conventions around 1979-80 and was staying in Chicago. I asked the hotel concierge what was available to see one night and he said there was a play called "The Elephant Man." I had see a production of it in SF starring Philip Anglim, which was highly regarded. This production starred David Bowie, so I went. He was as good as Anglim. What a treat.

A favorite.

Eh… 50/50.. what I like, I like a lot, but I also don’t like at all an equal amount of his songs..

From Young Americans

Favorite album, I love all the songs. No wierd experimental stuff.

That was outstanding. Good album art, too.

KevinTodd 02-07-2023 09:01 AM

I get it. Have been listening to Changes the album this week, and he was truly one of a kind. Huge loss for the world when he died. One of the true chameleons in the industry that understood that to be relevant, he had to adapt.

stevej37 02-07-2023 09:59 AM

Early 70's and Diamond Dogs had only been out for a couple months. Myself and three buddy's heard Bowie was going to play at the McCormick Place in Chicago in a few days and there were tickets available.

We packed into my car on a weekday and drove the 4 hrs to the MP

Bowie had made another of his changes (which we were unaware of) and the concert was a complete jazz/blues show. No earlier hits...it was a big disappointment.

He did a good job anyway and we arrived back home just in time to go to school.:)
Yes..he was truly a chameleon.

KNS 02-07-2023 02:11 PM

Long time fan - got to see him during his Glass Spider tour in '87. Bonus treat: Peter Frampton played guitar during the tour.

Interesting trivia - Frampton and Bowie were friends and went to the same school as teenagers.

dheinz 02-07-2023 04:53 PM

Long time fan here also...
I can't seem to embed a YouTube video from this device.
Can one of you fans please post a Bowie " Five Years" video?
Thanks in advance...

in my view, this is one of the greatest covers of Space Oddity. Hope you agree

Just watched a Mick Ronson documentary called Beside Bowie. Very interesting, learned quite a bit about the Bowie era with Ronson that I never knew.

berettafan 02-08-2023 05:23 AM

Big fan. Lets Dance possibly one of the best pop songs in history.
