Stop accepting death. Build citadels of lego and cheese

Masterpiece indeed, as was his life.

DiX Inc. right? I think Bowie showed us that there is nothing to fear in death. As Mark Twain said “ I had been dead for billions and billions of years before i was born and do not recall suffering the slightest inconvenience from it”. Perhaps the Starman has begun a new journey in a new universe?

📣 Diana, Princess of Wales, is alive! Yes, and it’s time the world begins to awaken to this Truth and so much more. Not only is our beloved Princess still with us, but so is John F. Kennedy, Jr., Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, and Lauren Bessette. There’s also a long list of celebrities and entrepreneurs including David Bowie, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jackson, Robin Williams, Steve Jobs, and Whitney Houston. So, how does one account for something as unbelievable as this? Well, each person named above, and those whose names haven’t been revealed yet, have their own story, and soon you’ll be learning about it. However, in the meantime, here’s the short version. Each one of these people, at one point, entered into a worldwide witness protection program. Wondering what these individuals needed protection from? It’s something the likes of which the average man or woman has never been confronted with. Although it may sound funny, each one of us will eventually have a role in the “Big Picture,” too. What is it? We need to respectfully listen to their stories and begin to understand the “as yet, unrecognized threat” that humanity has been living amongst. Bottom line is that we must give these brave people an opportunity to tell their stories and face head-on the Truths that we’ll be given in order to protect our families and ourselves now and forever more. Best way for us to complete our responsibility is to have unwavering faith in our Creator, God Eternal.

It is even soothing somehow! I agree!

He created many historical masterpieces (I like the album of the era I made with ENO), but "BLACKSTAR" seems to be completely isolated from Bowie's works so far. It's completely singing about death. I've never heard this kind of music.

there's some occult meaning here as well. I am " The Great I am " Maybe being human is the experience, and what comes next is actual reality. The idea is to let go of who you are self (ego) and connect with the great I am, which is basically you. Buddhist tend to seek this same oneness within. Or one can cheat and take LSD haha. Dmt is too much for simple soul validation, I'd say that's more for trauma and overcoming impossible situations in life..... That which you seek, is also seeking you

There is the major Tom, who let go and drifted away. The symbolism is breathtaking.

It's a satinic/sarurnist esoteric ritual

That's my interpretation as well. But it breaks my heart when he sings "something happened on the day he died..." cause it did happened, the stars looked different. 💔

Didn't he say something about Lorde being the next best artist? Maybe Lorde is the one who will take his place.

This is not art per se; it is occultism and black magic. If you cant see this you've drunk way too much Kool Aid.

@@chookin1 “This is not art persay...” Sure it is Percy. “If you cannot see this...” I think you are confused. Art is not necessarily the thing that inspired it. Space Oddity was a song not a space mission. Bowie dabbled in all kinds of interesting ideas m throughout his career. He was inspired occultism. He was also inspired by politics, Current affairs, classic Hollywood, science fiction, psychology; krautrock, Americana, the golden age of cinema and the culture of Weimar Germany.

Look up Leonard Cohen's final album *You Want It Darker.* Made while he was dying as well. "Leaving the Table' - you will feel it.

beautiful soul, wow can you explain the meaning of this video clip or the lyrics?

skilled person I believe she (and all who respect and cherish David's art and music) is referring to his entire body of work. Why must she "explain" this video or its meaning(s)? Are you frightened or somehow wounded by this video/music? Search inside your own heart and soul for serenity, tranquility, peace, grace, love, happiness, contentment, etc... It kind of sounds as though you're attempting to pin something sinister or negative to this video/music...

I honestly can not explain the lyrics or video. I don't believe anyone can, for that matter. Bowie's music was a journey, not a destination. His music and art gave us something to think about. I think it was his goal to let us interpret and take away from his music that had the most meaning to each of us. I believe his last album, "Blackstar" was a very personal journey for him. I think he achieved all that he wanted to, and a lot of critics are saying his last album was his greatest masterpiece.

The only other musician I can say did the same was Leonard Cohen, he literally wrote a whole album with the help of his son about his death, and wherever they are (I bet they're in the Tower of Song, like Cohen said, we'd be hearing from him even after he's long long gone) they're damn legends.

his whole life was art indeed

Extremely well stated

@@davidfrantz276 I saw Bowie live in concert about 13 years ago in Los Angeles Universal Ampitheatre

He was always unrestricted, always one step ahead of the rest, always daring to step into unknown territory and shattering preconceived notions. A true innovator that shaped music in ways many people take for granted. His album "Outside" which a lot of people overlook due to it being released in 1995 (he was planning on revisiting it, actually) is a perfect example. I've been a Bowie fan long before the news of his death, but I still keep discovering gems, another one being "Earthling". Just as he has no two albums sounding the same, he also has no peers. He immortalised his life into his art and decided that was to be his parting gift to us. I have nothing but deep admiration for the man.

nice comment also that pupper is adorable

nice pupper also that comment is adorable

I don't believe Bowie had more restrictions in albums such as "Heroes" or "Lodger". He was always experimental.

Lodger is my favorite of his albums

How'd you end up here 😅 +Mikey Gaming

lol you were the last person I was expecting here...not saying your not allowed too

Yea, I'm curious if someone like Axel Rose or Bruce Springsteen will go out with a bang. They are both intense like Bowie when it comes to their music. I'm not so sure about Axel Rose though. He's too jacked up from drugs.

+Henry TheGreatAmerican I agree with you on Axel Rose--completely. Bruce Springsteen, not sure at this point.

You should check out the song by GnR called Catcher in the Rye.... the demo version. I think it was a very underrated song. The demo is way better than the album version. I think it was the best song on Chinese Democracy. The overall album was decent but way overproduced. If they released in 1999 like they were supposed to it would have been a bigger hit. A lot of the songs have potential. I'm guessing a few might be reproduced by artists in the future with a better updated sound. Seems like Axel had to throw in a few too many excessive 80's guitar riffs where they weren't needed.

My child knows him, and they once asked, "Why is David Bowie your favorite?" And I said, "Because he was brave, and that makes me feel brave because I'm always afraid." That and the music. Naturally.

So you let your children listen to this dark demonic shit

The final masterpiece

The whole album really. I feel there are a lot of parallels with Station to Station.

There is lot to it. This song can be intepreted in many ways, though I think the ultimate message was a huge criticism of things we believe in. You need to know history of religion and ideologies well to see the references in it, same as in many other songs. Some say that China Girl was just a commercial pop songs, but for a person who knows the political history of China, it is obvious the song and the video were representing what has been happening in China since the beginnings of the XIXth century, up to the 80ies.

@@SparrowNoblePoland It's true however 'China Girl' was written by Iggy Pop. I think it was more of a casual observation he was making on culture, so it is still there. How deep the message in songs go is often granted a lesser AND a greater meaning by the audience and whether the artist is being literal in their message or not. Art is a mirror full of symbolism. Some artists are seen as much smarter and deeper than they are just by making reference. That's part of the charm. They cause people to think, sometimes way more than the artist actually has. Bowie considered himself a Gnostic Christian. More of a mystical rudimentary form, not adhering to the doctrines of organized religion. I'd say he was a believer but just as much a Buddhist, occultist or even pagan. He has said that he had no interest in knocking anyone's religion and found them fascinating. Bowie was an observer not a critic with harsh opinions. That's what made him interesting. You do stuff like observe honestly and people will have you lynched for it. Artists with strong gripes aren't for me, neither are pretentious and dishonest ones.

finnibert lunchiken Incorrect. Bowie wrote China Girl and gave it to Iggy Pop, then later decided to release it himself. I should know. I’m named after the song. Lol.

ya it really is amazing that his last album was a middle finger to the lord god and the angels trapped inside host bodies to come burn in hell with him and the rest of the demons..

You can believe whatever you want! that's the beauty of art, and funny thing is, great art like this a lot of times uncovers more of what you have in your mind than what the actual subject it's about.

John Deere The song is actually about Jesus. He was a "black star", in Gnostic Christianity, becaused he rebelled against the Satanic system controlling the world. The blindfolded Bowie character represents the devil, and the Bowie that can see is Jesus holding the true gospel. The cultists people represent humans manipulated by demons to believe harmful religions and ideologies.

Blackstar is another name for cancer. Leave your bullshit, fairy tales out of it.

You are a deluded coward. I'm so tired of you and your ilk's fearful belief in a God, put together piecemeal from the many religions before which ultimately all point to the same unimaginative story, told many times over by man.

It's the Spirit Fever

It is based on old Popeye cartoons. Very innocent, actually, not creepy. Here is a simple explanation from www.billboard.com/articles/news/6770048/david-bowie-blackstar-video-debut-popeye: Not unlike that clip, dance plays a role in this film, too, but more in the Pina Bausch choreography sense. At various points in the film, non-Bowie people compulsively shudder, their shoulders bobbing up and down like they're enduring a mild shock. During the Q&A, Renck revealed the unexpected inspiration for that motion: Classic Popeye cartoons. Renck says Bowie was fascinated by the way background characters in the Max Fleischer 'toons from the 1930s moved. Since animators were focused on the foreground action but didn't want to leave the rest of the frame static, periphery characters would often repeat the same three-second motions for, say, 30 seconds of a cartoon frame. So Bowie suggested to Renck that the extras in his video do the same.
