David Bowie
Having not really written any generational songs - I think maybe two or three of the songs that I've ever written have any bearing on the age of the listener. My stuff tends to be far more concerned with the spiritual and with subjects like isolation and being miserable.
David Bowie
I really wanted to do, more than anything else, up until I was around 16, 17, was write musicals.
David Bowie
You can neither win nor lose if you don't run the race
David Bowie
There's a starman waiting in the sky, he'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds.
David Bowie
I'm a thinker not a talker.
David Bowie
Wham, bam, thank you Ma'am.
David Bowie
Feeling so gay, feeling so gay.
David Bowie
[David] Bowie had a genius for continual change himself, reinventing his sound and his image throughout the decades. Each album seemed to find Bowie in a different persona, with a new sound to match his new look.
David Bowie
Would you carry a razor, in case, just in case of depression?
David Bowie
