@hijikaelemenope3127 Жыл бұрын

@@robs-journeys Same here, I've always considered this song as Bowie's manifesto (in the same sense of other art movements manifestos, like surrealism) : I will keep changing, and moving and searching, year after year, album to album, song to song, and each new step will be both an achievement in a specific form, and an starting point to another direction. I've read somewhere a good description of Bowie's process : "He's like these giant sharks, who have to keep swimming abolutely all the time, and who die the moment they stop moving ahead."

Interesting you said this because I always thought Madonna had perfected the art of reinventing oneself but this had of course been going on for ages. I guess she was the 1st I witnessed it real time in the 80's, but Bowie and the Beatles certainly did it so not sure why I thought she was a trailblazer in that regard.

@@bothellkenmore Well, maybe because, instead of being the first artist to follow this path, she was actually the last to do it... I can't name anyone after her in the music industry who kept evolving and pushing in different directions with each new album. And in art, you have 3 ways of being famous (among others, of course) : inventing a technique, perfecting this technique, being the last one to use it.

This is the point in Bowie's career where almost everything he did for the next decade was groundbreaking in some way or another. He was a hard rock/progressive artist on the album before this, a bit of a singer/songwriter here and then not even a year later, he would revamp his sound again to perfect Marc Bolan's glam rock thing for his Ziggy Stardust album. And that's just three years in his career! Truly an artist who was open to changes and understood that that was how to keep one's artistry fresh and vibrant.

Great quote by Bowie here not a lyric just a quote. “If you feel safe in the area you’re working in, you’re not working in the right area. Always go a little further into the water than you feel you’re capable of being in. Go a little bit out of your depth. And when you don’t feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting”. David was forever exploring and changing who he was, trying to understand what life is truly about and what role does his life play within it. RIP Starman, keep looking 🙏🏻 🌌 🔭

Bowie is one of the the most influential artists ever in rock. Yes, he knew Lennon and was greatly loved respected by all the musicians who knew him. The keyboard player for this and many other Bowie songs was Rick Wakeman, who was also the keyboardist for the incredible band YES, loved Bowie's artistry and spoke about it often in interviews. Wakeman is considered one of the very best keyboard players in any genre. You can call yourself a Captain, but are you a Captain to other Captains? Bowie most certainly was.

I grew up listening to Bowie. He was a mercurial artist with many personas. I took my daughter to see him in Atlanta (he played for 3 hours), and with such an amazing catalog, he could only hit the high points. But he did... when 10,000 people sing out "wham, bam, thank you ma'am," (from his song "Suffragette City"), it's something you never forget. If you like Bowie, I would suggest you check out "Ashes to Ashes" next.

Y'all are both right. Brad, it is kind of a sequel to "The Times They Are A' Changing:". Bowie was greatly influenced by Dylan, and this was a 70's observation on the chasm between the older generation and the new. Lex, yes! David Bowie and John Lennon were friends, They wrote the song "Fame" together, through a fortuitous jam session. The line from this song... "Look out, you Rock n' Rollers, Pretty soon now, You're gonna get older" really hit me hard in my youth. I was a Rock n' Roller, and had not considered the fleeting nature of time to such an extent. When you're young, the whole world seems to be ahead of you. Before you know it, most of it is behind you.

@maruka1716 Жыл бұрын

You really should listen to his whole 1971 album "Hunky Dory." This song starts it off. It's also got "Life on Mars," which you've done. And a song for Bob Dylan, another for Andy Warhol, and one for Bowie's baby son (who is now movie director Duncan Jones). The final song on it is just mind-boggling. It's a real songwriter showcase, all written before he turned 25 and before he was famous. Highly recommended.

I live in Edmonton Alberta Canada, and once I had the most AWESOME PLEASURE of seeing David Bowe, Peter Gabriel and The Tubes in about '84, just when he had released the Let's Dance album. t was SOOOOOOO AVESONE, It was in a huge Footbal Stadium in the summeroutside, about +25 Celsius, and the concert ran until about 1:00 AM. What I am saying is not really important to anyone, just wanted to say it was one of the most amazing and emotionally satisfying experiences of my life and I am so thankful I was able to see one of the greatest performances ever. David Bowie was amazing, fantastic and sounded unbelievable live. Just that they were willing to stay so late for the crowd was just freaking crazy. By the way, concerts were beyond cheap back then, averaging about $17 to 25 bucks. we were young and it was so cool, every perforner was within reach and so easily attainable. God, growng up in the 80's was great. people make ;fun of the hair and clothes, but we were able to hear truly great music. We had it all, from the Beach Boys to Black Sabbath, music was music, not atou tune etc., etc. Thanks for your time whilst I ramble about the "old days"

I miss David Bowie so much, I need to know what comes after Blackstar even though Blackstar as an album sounds like he knew his time on earth was coming to an end, the mother ship was returning and it was time to go back to the Home Planet. My favorite story so far is when Coldplay approached Bowie to do a collaboration. They go up to him and do the whole "hello mr Bowie, big fans" yadda yadda "would you do a song with us", he gives a noncommittal answer wanting to hear the song first. Time Passes and they have an unpolished bit of instrumental they play for him, he listens to it and goes "not very good is it", and that was the end of any chance for that colab happening.

I have always loved this song. You both have great insights into this song. At one level it is a reminder to people who may think that they understand the need for change that they should be ready to face the strange. There will always be new ideas and new expectations. Even rock and rollers get older and are sometimes afraid to get out of their comfort zone. Also, there are a number of great songs that deliberately include stuttering of lyrics. The Who, My Generation, for example.

I think one thing you guys might not appreciate is how we used to receive these songs 'back in the day'... Radio and records were the only ways to hear music except for a few TV shows... Pop/Rock radio would keep new stuff in a tight enough rotation that you would hear things several times over a week... sometimes you loved something the first time you heard it but most times it took repeated listens to appreciate a song... And if you really liked it you could buy a 7"/45rpm single record for $1 or you took a chance that you'd like more of the artist and got the album for $7... I would be really interested in whether or not you two ever go back to these songs to figure out more of what they're about... You're pretty thoughtful on a first listen and I'd be curious how you feel about some of your favorites or the ones that got strong recommendations but that you found weird or whatever... thanks again!

Ah, David Bowie. My first love. He was an incredible artist. Miss him in this world. I remember in the beginning of the movie The Breakfast Club, they used a verse from this song "And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds, are immune to your consultation, they're quite aware of what they're going through.". It resonates well when you see society outcast people for being different or weird. I strongly resemble that because I am very much and outcast and I'm proud of it. I should not need to conform to matter.
