Running random Bowie videos on youtube since I found out. Good choices for me: Heart's Filthy Lesson, I'm Afraid of Americans, Jump They Say, some of the Seu Jorge stuff from The Life Aquatic. I'm loving crushed, too. I'm so not loving okay. Snot-nosed bawling at 32 years old.

If you're totally unfamiliar it might be good to just listen to "Blackstar" the song first, for a view of modern Bowie, and then start from the beginning. If you just start from the beginning as a non music nerd some of the older stuff might sound dated. But everything he ever did was cutting-edge. Music, visual arts, digital mixed media. He was a pioneer in so many fields.

been watching the GIF your avatar comes from listening to Bowie. First random Bowie, now Blackstar twice through. Alternately crying and trying not to cry.

A bit rushed but I did get a decent take of Moonage Daydream done tonight. I'm still very much an amateur behind the kit, but this song is one of my old favorites from Rock Band and it's even more fun on a real drumset:

I'm not even that big of a Bowie fan, I don't feel as strongly about him as a lot of other posters obviously do but I really respect him as an artist. By all accounts the dude was a pro the whole way through.



Nick Cave and Tom Waits better take it reeeeal easy in 2016, I can't take much more of this poo poo <:mad:>

Thank you. It's really poignant to see his music kept alive.
