    The star that burns twice as bright burns half as long - and you, Starman, have burned so very, very brightly.
    You were the soundtrack to my life, my inspiration, and you gave me the confidence to be myself. Thank you.
    I miss you more than I know how to say.
    Rest in Power. Rest in Peace.

      Remember, poor guy had no sense of direction...but I got a strong feeling there was a personal escort for him. Gee, there's Mick Ronson, and his pal Lou Reed and Lenny and Marc Bolan, oh, and Freddy Mercury. And no question, there are others. Those left are getting weird illnesses---Pete Frampton and Eric Clapton. To hear a good concert, soon we'll have to leave here ourselves!

      i actually think his covers were a weak point for him. with notable exceptions ('sorrow', 'china girl', 'wild is the wind', 'gemini spaceship' and a few that were faithful renditions of excellent originals)

    The air is getting hotter
    There’s a rumbling in the skies
    I’ve been wading through the high muddy water
    With the heat rising in my eyes
    Every day your memory grows dimmer
    It doesn’t haunt me like it did before
    I’ve been walking through the middle of nowhere
    Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
    When I was in Missouri
    They would not let me be
    I had to leave there in a hurry
    I only saw what they let me see
    You broke a heart that loved you
    Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore
    I’ve been walking that lonesome valley
    Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
    People on the platforms
    Waiting for the trains
    I can hear their hearts a-beatin’
    Like pendulums swinging on chains
    I tried to give you everything
    That your heart was longing for
    I’m just going down the road feeling bad
    Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
    I’m going down the river
    Down to New Orleans
    They tell me everything is gonna be all right
    But I don’t know what “all right” even means
    I was riding in a buggy with Miss Mary-Jane
    Miss Mary-Jane got a house in Baltimore
    I been all around the world, boys
    Now I’m trying to get to heaven before they close the door
    Gonna sleep down in the parlor
    And relive my dreams
    I’ll close my eyes and I wonder
    If everything is as hollow as it seems
    Some trains don't pull no gamblers
    No midnight ramblers like they did before
    I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
    Now I’m trying to get to heaven before they close the door

    I can hear their hearts beating......I'm just going down that road feeling bad....trying to get to heaven before they close the door...I'm going down the river....I don't know what alright means... " Keep trying then let go. No matter how hard it gets or how dark it gets our Spiritual life is what our Creator gives us to make us stronger,wiser, humble and innocent in the face of adverse circumstances. Evil doesn't love. Human beings love and forgive. Forgive but don't forget... The wise words of my darling,dear Father. I live them the best I can, but remember I'm only human too. Trying to get to Heaven too.

He was a great explorer of this universe and loved to sing about it. Thank you for your life and being there when I was in it. He never kept up with the Jones'. He cha-cha-changed that too!

    For that I thank you, Marianna: always you know mean something really valuable, to sip.
    The divine voice of Bowie is certainly capable of opening the door towards Heaven, so much high and touching is his knocking, from (not only) the human abyss ...
