The public, obviously, they takes things in a very simplest fashion and so they should. That's why we have such wonderful television.
David Bowie
Image
I've made over 25 studio albums, and I think probably I've made two real stinkers in my time, and some not-bad albums, and some really good albums. I'm proud of what I've done. In fact it's been a good ride.
David Bowie
Image
I wanted to prove the sustaining power of music.
David Bowie

Once you lose that sense of wonder at being alive, you're pretty much on the way out.
David Bowie

David Bowie
Image
I don't profess to have music as my big wheel and there are a number of other things as important to me apart from music. Theatre and mime, for instance.
David Bowie

The people who don't know so much about me regard me more sexually.
David Bowie
Image
I'm a born librarian with a sex drive.
David Bowie
Image
I don't believe in proper cinema it doesn't have the strength of television. People having to go out to the cinema is really archaic. I'd much rather sit at home.
David Bowie
Image
I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.
David Bowie
Image
I guess, - a greater number of the 26 or so albums that I've made are known in Europe than they are in America.
David Bowie
Image
We slit the Catholic throat, stoned the poor on such slogans as wish you could hear and love is all we need.
David Bowie
Image
I'm not at ease with the word love.
David Bowie
Image
I'm really quite bipolar, and the depressed times, when everything felt like night, sometimes you get to such a low point that you physically beat at it until it bleeds - as you would say - bleeds till sunshine.
David Bowie

Nothing prepared me for your smile

I'm bemused by the whole Robbie Williams aspect of British pop. Posh Spice? It all looks like cruise ship entertainment to me.
