Yeah that would be awfully nice. Unfortunately my doctor sucks. I'll probably go see him this week, although it'll be a little late to help me today.

my job isn't infosec but I'm heading that way on my career path and know a lot about it? Also you could probably find someone easily if you checked the working in IT thread

Hunky Dory's always been an emotional record for me, and while it's not my favorite it's the one that's brought me to a few tears today. There's a lot of raw emotion throughout the whole thing. I think he only tops himself, for me anyway, in Five Years and Rock 'n Roll Suicide later on. What an artist.

Five Years isn't on my ipod for some reason, life isn't worth living anymore. I have Moonage daydream, it'll have to do for now.

It's actually complete bullshit that Five Years is missing, I have a playlist for Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars because my song inf is hosed, and it's got everything in it but Five Years, so it has deleted itself from my ipod. I'll have to do a complete overhaul of this thing because it's missing songs that once were there.

It's not the sort of big radio single that gets remembered these days, but very little in this world lights my brain on fire like "Look Back in Anger." Give it a spin if you never have before.

i mean that tweet is kind of dumb, humans weren't alive for billions of years, so really it makes it way more likely that a person would be alive at the same time as david bowie than that twitter post makes it seem. There are more factors as well, like changes in population but I don't need to go into those

He may or may not have hosed an underage groupie. Also he definitely abducted a baby once.

Stand down, men! It's only smooching!

I was always a fan of Ziggy and The Thin White Duke. Station to Station is a brilliant album and there's a live version of "Stay" that absolutely destroys.

I also really love "Let's Dance" and lot of his lovely disco stuff but I like a lot of music.

Gonna work through his discography and see what else I have missed. Looking forward to his final album, too.

From Brian Eno:

quote:

David's death came as a complete surprise, as did nearly everything else about him. I feel a huge gap now.

We knew each other for over 40 years, in a friendship that was always tinged by echoes of Pete and Dud. Over the last few years - with him living in New York and me in London - our connection was by email. We signed off with invented names: some of his were mr showbiz, milton keynes, rhoda borrocks and the duke of ear.

About a year ago we started talking about Outside - the last album we worked on together. We both liked that album a lot and felt that it had fallen through the cracks. We talked about revisiting it, taking it somewhere new. I was looking forward to that.

I received an email from him seven days ago. It was as funny as always, and as surreal, looping through word games and allusions and all the usual stuff we did. It ended with this sentence: 'Thank you for our good times, brian. they will never rot'. And it was signed 'Dawn'.

I realise now he was saying goodbye.

RIP, Mr. Bowie.

yeah this is going around tumblr a lot lately with people stating he was a pedophile/rapist and when you ask for proof they link to a tumblr post... that links to an interview with a famous groupie who supposedly lost her virginity to him at 13 at like, the height of his fame in the 70s, but she's also supposedly lost her virginity to Angie and David at the same time or some other rock stars depending on who you talk to? It's getting kinda frustrating because one of my friends is doing this and I asked her for proof (she also seems to think he was a terrible racist), refuted it, and am now getting radio silence from her?

it is... Irritating
