For a man who did more cocaine than god and has experienced life in a crazy kaleidoscope that most of us could never imagine in our wildest dreams, David Bowie is surprisingly down to earth.

@francinekubler9112 8 лет назад

He always was if you consider writings and works at the exhibition David B is.

Bowie's strength is that he rarely repeats himself.

@WorgenGrrl 4 года назад

Especially in an industry that demands it at times.

@rosasmofadas 4 года назад

when he does it’s artistic, like a nod or a different view in an old idea.

@elmo7608 3 года назад

Lhes actually quite a good singer, little known fact

@linden5165 3 года назад

He said he always repeated himself in a way - coming back to the same themes of alienation and inner struggle again and again - but always from a new angle or approach. That he didn't repeat, although many times his work did echo back to earlier pieces. A true artist.

but man, Ziggy was long way death before 76. Till that date he have already realized Diamond Dogs, Young Americans and Station to Station...

@thewalrus5198 7 лет назад

In the 80s David Bowie was very pop instead of rock.

@drdre4397 7 лет назад

He had a huge cocaine problem from 72-76. A massive one, I read even Mick Jagger was worried about him. Being awake for 5 days doing BOWLS of cocaine but still tore it up in the studio

"Fucking with the fabric of time." ~David Bowie

@peelslowly28 4 года назад

For those of you wondering why one of his pupils was bigger than the other: When he was a teenager him and his friend George Underwood got into a fight over girl which led Underwood punching Bowie in his left eye. The doctors later determined that the damage caused the pupil to be permanently dilated which caused faulty depth perception and gave the impression that the iris was a different color from the other. Bowie and Underwood were still good friends after and Underwood would even design the artwork for Bowies first few albums.

@camelsheit_on_the_walls446 7 лет назад

Even when in the midst of his cocaine addiction, David had more presence of mind, than most of us ever can dream of. What an unique man, and true artist, so authentic, an explorer and lover of life on earth and beyond, of things seen and unseen. Gosh, I Love him so

@scaredypicker 7 лет назад

The beauty of Bowie was that he never fell into the trappings of fame. Once you've made it as an artist, you've got your management and your fans asking you to do what is essentially the same thing over, and over with very little variation. That can be incredibly limiting and depressing as an artist, so Bowie just simply ignored them and worked only to satisfy himself. That takes a hell of a lot of bravery and foresight. He was just this unstoppable creative force and a true artist.

@suryar9704 3 года назад

He was not just a composer but a creator who strengthened the roots of whatever genre that he used to convey his creativity in this world. Those personalities David made during his career span of more than 50 years itself apart him from any other of his contemporaries. Especially after listened to 'Blackstar', which sounded Avant garde now I miss him way too much since he still would've produced different kind of sounds to us with his unique 'Bowiesque' way of style. ❤️

@omagine 10 лет назад

was just talking about him with a friend. We've both met and had chats with him - such an easy man to get on with. His creativity reaches us on a personal level, and i believe it has a great deal to do with his willingness to engage whoever or whatever comes along - you can't rediscover yourself if you're not continually discovering the life and lives around you with an open mind. Long live Bowie. Long, long, long live Bowie.
