Leave it to Bowie to die in the coolest, classiest way possible. That's how it's loving done.

Not that this excuses Bowie's behaviour, but I think either Steve Tyler or Jimmy Page adopted a groupie as a ward so they could travel together

How do Bowie superfans regard Nirvana's cover of Man Who Sold The World? I'm curious.

I think Bowie himself liked the cover but lamented the fact that he'd never know why Kurt chose to cover it.

I've wondered that myself, but then I've never really fully understood what the song is about, to be quite honest.

I got Heathen today. Great purchase. I think next is Outside or Earthling for me.

To be fair, Bowie wasn't ever stingy with material the way Prince was.

That's true but not long after he passed, somebody representing Bowie said he had a couple albums in the can. I think it was even speculated (read:hoped) that they were the 2nd and 3rd suites of 1:Outside.
