I was there at the beginning!!! (I am so OLD). Well not quite the beginning but Space Oddity was the first album I ever bought with my 13 year old pocket money (I loved ‘Five Years’) and Goat’s Head Soup by our old mates Mick and Keith was the second! I was introduced to Bowie by a bisexual friend who was also the first boy who kissed me. Hmm. That’s slightly disturbing. But I couldn’t agree more about early Bowie being the best. Although I did love Golden Years. Loved hearing about your early artistic life! A bit like my foray into theatre…

I kind of love Space Oddity and even China Girl. Silly, eh?

Hubbie and I really enjoyed this post tonight. I read it aloud to him because I just did not want him to miss it. I love when you tell the stories behind why you love the music you do. Great job, man.

My only Bowie pseudo-connection is that LittleBird loves to listen to Major Tom and realize that she can count backwards. Plus all of us can do the woah-woahs at the top of our voices–even LittleMan. Good times.

SSG: Mark Waters is a legend.
XBox: I think you’re right about that, which is why I’m slowly acquiring Bowie albums. But Ryans point is why I struggle with him. He’s like a musical politician sometimes.

I saw Bowie in concert primarily because NIN was opening, and, like 75% of the crowd, I left after NIN and the Reznor/Bowie duet on “Hurt”…it just felt, and still feels, like Bowie was cashing in on NIN’s popularity under the guise of being a “musical chameleon”, and it was icky.

Add in “Dancin’ in the Streets”, and, well, ugh.

‘Changesbowie’ is just the best introduction to an artist ever I think.

You could live your bowie life off that album alone, you’d be a fool, but you could.
