What makes "Blackstar" extraordinary is that Bowie turned dying into art. He knew he was on the verge of death and he did the one thing he knew he could rely on: He wrote songs. About life and death, his own and in general. It's a fitting end to a unique career.

I was a HUGE Bowie fan at thirteen. Probably becos Ziggy. When I heard about David's death, I heard. my husband on the phone to our phone. I remember hearing "Someone's going to have to tell her." I came downstairs for my cup of coffee. My husband said, "Wait a minute. I have to tell you ... David Bowie died last night." I felt electricity prickling all over my body, before I passed out. (This from a woman who had gone through 3 DAYS of labor birthing my 12 lb. baby boy.) I have never recovered.. oh, God, if you actually exist, bring back my David!

You hit the core. Bowie's musical science is very accurate and his breaks through established rules can compare to the best Picasso's daring innovations in painting. He has reshaped harmonic and rythmic capacities beyond conceived conceptions, from Space Oddity to Black Star. His only mistake: having turned prostitute for a while (Let's Dance), though he paid a sheer price in terms of inspiration, which this he lacked all along the 80s. Undiscouraged he managed with will and experience to neatly slowly overcome the disease, rushing back full strength with 'Outside,' once reunited with Eno. The stain, all things considered today, made of him a human, someone capable to fail then learn and rediscover existence through its true lens. Had he enjoyed only perfect attitudes this would have made him a constant shining and boring accomplishment, someone you cannot relate to. As a human being he saved Iggy's life from unavoidable disaster and helped him reshape his working and then a take-off. He refused twice to be knighted, preferring keeping ties with his people. A classy musician and man indeed, he is in the mind, the heart and a constant investigation for 30+ years. Have a great journey. :)

It seemed to me that Bowie was well aware that his time was near, and he wanted to leave what was the equivalent of his own eulogy for the rest of us.

God, the release of Blackstar was a weird time. It was coming out and there were really positive reviews pre-release about how it was this jazzy and dark album that feels simultaneously like a throwback to his early years and forward thinking. I actually hadn't listened to any of Bowie's work, but I was getting hyped so I downloaded all his albums and blitzed through them so that I could listen to Blackstar when it dropped (skipping from Let's Dance to Black Tie White Noise, based on the reputation of his middle albums). I fell in love with his music, and then immediately fell in love with Blackstar. It really did feel like an exciting new direction for a singer with a LONG discography. And then he died, and the conversation around the album instantly shifted from "what's next in Bowie's post-haitus post-Blackstar career" to "so, death was a prominent theme in that work, huh?" It's now considered his final artistic statement, and the album is certainly good enough and appropriate enough to warrant that, but I do miss those short two days in between the album dropping and his death, when the Blackstar wasn't a full stop, but the beginning of a new sentence.

Fun facts about Bowie: I live in the countryside of Tuscany and I'm Always Surprise about the three weird links between my homeland and David Bowie. 1) In the 60's, Italy had the trend to take British and american songs and make an italian cover of that Song by an italian singer (for example i suggest the Italian cover of Stones' Paint it black by Caterina Caselli). We have an Italian cover of space oddity sung in Italian by David Bowie with his strong British accent. It named "ragazzo solo, ragazza sola" and It isn't about space but It was about a teen love story. 2) He Lost a contest for young musicians in 1969 in Monsummano terme, which Is a city Very near to where I live. 3) He starred in an italian Western movie in the late 90's with Leonardo Pieraccioni, the Italian Adam Sandler. And this movie was also made very near where i live, in the Mountains of Tuscany. Sorry for the wot but i wanna share this trivia with someone

i think blackstar might be one of the greatest musical achievements ever quite honestly. to do a record of such quality while suffering and having it be one of the best of your career, better than probably anything you did in the last 25 years at least, is insane to me. and then to have a lot of the album reflecting on your life, as if you know your time’s ending, and then having it release and passing away shortly after - this is all just fascinating to me. i feel slightly inappropriate in saying that the album and its timing was a miracle, but i think it is. it’s really horrible that he died, but i think the fact that he did an exited with such a monumental and reflective statement is transcendent. i don’t think any other artist ever will do what David did by releasing blackstar. it’s as if he made the stars align for that moment, and made the universe take him on his own terms. because of all of this, i think blackstar is one of the most fascinating albums to ever be released. there’s something about it that feels transcendent, like one of the most ultimate statements of art to me. i am not sure why it intrigues me this much, but it really does.

Where his Debut felt a lot like a young David Jones writing songs, Space Oddity feels to me like the first David Bowie album.

Little did I know what would follow in the coming months... Bowie’s music, characters, and Inspiration has helped me get through this long, tumultuous, and exhausting year. He’s boosted my self confidence, calmed me down when I feel angry, sad, or frustrated, and even made me realize _I’m Not Alone_ .

Heathen, Black Tie, Earthling, Young Americans, and Lodger are albums I also loved that aren't generally considered his "best". Such a great career and still oddly underrated simply because his hits are so overplayed at this point.

The same with anyone trying to listen to Low as if it's Station to Station. The moods are supposed to be different and so are the compositions.

A solid summary of Bowie's career. I really appreciate Buddha of Suburbia getting some much needed attention. Although I do want to point out that 1.Outside was not Bowie's full vision. His original vision can (kind of) be heard in bootlegs like "The Leon Tapes". Outside is a more commercial version that doesn't quite edit the album down enough to really work as an accessible album. I personally would recommend cutting the album down when you're listening to it the first few times. The segues, No Control, I am With Name, Wishful Beginnings, and We Prick you are very easy to go without. My favorite "under appreciated Bowie thing" would be the Glass Spider tour. NLMD isn't a great album as a whole but when it's broken down and mixed in with other Bowie songs it becomes really enjoyable. I also really enjoyed the return of multiple obscure 70s songs like All the Madmen, Time, Big Brother, and Sons of the Silent age especially considering that none of those songs would ever be played again after that tour. I would mainly recommend earlier recordings from the tour like Berlin or even the official Montreal album since later in the tour the more interesting songs would be dropped in favor of oft-played hits.
@chrismeadows42164 жыл бұрын
Honestly, I'm more upset about it than anything else Bowie ever did that he made the decision to not do All the Madmen for the DVD. That song's subject matter was obviously way more important to David than every song on the entire setlist, but he cut it for some reason. There was absolutely no pro-shot footage of him performing it, and it's one of my favorite songs. That really disappoints me, because if he had actually taken the time to play The Man Who Sold the World songs live, they would have been recognized and that album would have become more mainstream than just the title track. They'll remain obscure, and that sucks.

It's music to spend time with. Like "Lodger", it rewards repeated listening. He's right about "Black Tie, White Noise": it's joyfully creative and accessible.

I thought about it was crazy it was how he still made really unique, good music even late into a career. The next day (pun not intended) I found out that he had died the night before and he was possibly dying at the same time I was listening to the album (I don't know what time he died. He could have been dead already). Then I thought of the line in "Girl Loves Me" off that album, which goes, "Where the f**k did Monday go?" And it was funny, because he ruined everyone's Monday by dying the day before.
