"A young mind that is not forearmed to the hypocrisies that he will encounter and the stubbornness to change that people have, and to accept change and to flow with it; rather than become reactionary and fight against it, which produces the terrible conflicts we find around us." My highlight of the wisdom gifted to us by the late Bowie.

His perspective on touring is interesting given this was a few years before the exhaustive Serious Moonlight and Glass Spider tours. As fans, I'm sure most of us would have all preferred live performances vs watching videos of him perform live in larger cities. I'm so thankful for video now that we can watch him perform repeatedly. I regret not seeing him live. The one time I planned to, the show was cancelled and I couldn't make the rescheduled date.

The interview bits in this are compiled from two different sources: Andy Peebles' BBC interview with Bowie in New York and the RCA Special Radio Series interview LP released in the US to promote Scary Monsters. Bowie's tone is quite different in the two interviews; he's more puckish, warm, playful and charming on the RCA promo disk.

Interview Summary: Bowie: brilliant, kind, erudite, and always gracious as well as intellectually is above this super irritating condescending interviewer without showing off or showing what an asshole he thinks this guy is (and so do I ) (and I am NOT projecting) Bowie is beyond. The best. Always. All ways.

What's going on with the screen. Picture is really chopped up like a picasso of sorts...can I view this elsewhere ?

It's an audio interview. Not sure why your screen was chopping up. Is it better now?

Bowie had a way of over thinking things, and as a result the interviewers did it as well - "to us lesser mortals". Lyrics, characters and interpretations aren't really important, it's the melody, vocals and production that sells records.

I am grateful he thought of music exactly as he did. To limit one’s approach-much less to break it down to the aspects you mention-limits the ability of music to surprise and transform.
@apostate2 жыл бұрын
Lyrics aren't meaningful?! Did you actually say that? Lyrics are the story. There is no song without the words that are special to the person listening to the music. and the words have to be written in such a way as to bring the listener into the music and ti make the song special to them as well as to all the other millions of listeners that are hearing it. And Bowie doesn't overthink. Everyone else does not think enough. Big difference. The interviewer is an asshole.

"sells records" - a reductive point of view. Art meets commerce in (British) pop/rock is something special.

@@hazelwray4184 It's called the music business. Record contracts are given to those who will shift units.
