| for me, he represented the best of British .... was the soundtrack of my youth too first record i bought was Bowie then at 14 with a couple of friends we started the first Geman Bowie fan club and his record company used to send us bags of his fan mail .... and the first few bars of Five Years will forever be etched into my memory wearing out the ridges on the vinyl listening to it alone or with others in darkened rooms, bunking of school, discovering the fumblings of the opposite sex my first concert was Bowie too and then the Berlin Albums (desert island stuff) ... and even when i stopped liking his music at the Let's Dance stage he still remained an inspiration as an artist and a human being and the recent Bowie show at the V&A was very moving for me and cemented the recognition of his influence on finding my own way in life what a life, what a legacy thank you for the inspiration |
