David Bowie
Don't let me hear you say life takes you nowhere, angel.
David Bowie

David Bowie
In fact, in Europe, I'm more kind of this bloke what writes lots of stuff.
David Bowie
I think that we have created a new kind of person in a way. We have created a child who will be so exposed to the media that he will be lost to his parents by the time he is 12.
