While walking my imaginary dog Kelvin across a light dusting of snow in order to post a letter to my MP complaining about black ice on our roads, I got to thinking. Nobody actually ever needs to listen to David Bowie. I was listening to David Bowie earlier, and I realised just how wrong this is as an activity. I think you need to be exposed to a small amount of David Bowie as a child - like tetanus or the MMR vaccine. But once that has happened, you are immune to David Bowie, and actually listening to David Bowie is just wrong. Like processed cheese - you are aware just how wrong it is to enjoy Dairylea cheese triangles as cheese, since they are not proper cheese. There is something fundamentally wrong involved in the process. You might have a sneaking admiration for Bowie - despite his dubious output in the early eighties - but this should always only ever remain an internalised principle. There is no need to ever listen to David Bowie. Listening to actual David Bowie recordings is as wrong as eating Dairylea cheese triangles and believing them to be cheese. They aren't. You can eat as many as you want, a whole packet if you must - and I'm sure we've all done that on those heady and idealistic summer afternoons in the pub - but you will only end up feeling sick. So, in conclusion, Oh my god! look at that! *runs away*
Strange as it my sound, I actually do understand what you mean.... There's a star maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan waiting in the sky!
Jon, why do I feel somewhat responsible for this? :S He'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'll blow our minds yes there's a starmaaaaan waiting in the sky, he said let the children use it, let the children use it, and all the children boo-gieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Dammit, now I have to go unearth my ziggy album... DAMN YOU JON!!! And after I listened to you all night
You make it sound like a terrible chore ... which, to be fair, it probably was. Don't mix Pastis and Port, kids... Now just to get rid of this buzzing in my ears
i understand what you are saying too, which is odd for me because im so dense normally....and now you mentioned cheese im hungry and i know we have no food in the house...i dont wana crawl outta my comfy pjs either... eeep dilemma!
No, I actually sometimes NEED TO listen to David Bowie. There are times when I have to, I mean really have to listen to the Ziggy Stardust album, or I will... I will...die! So, there!
...turn and face the strain ch-ch-changes... well come on they did use bowie in shrek 2...he must have some virtues ...Time may change me But I can’t trace time... lalala
probably the best david bowie song *tenses expecting barrages of insults* Space Oddity Ground Control to Major Tom Take your protein pills and put your helmet on Ground Control to Major Tom Commencing countdown, engines on Check ignition and may God's love be with you (Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Liftoff) This is Ground Control to Major Tom You've really made the grade And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare This is Major Tom to Ground Control I'm stepping through the door And I'm floating in a most peculiar way And the stars look very different today For here Am I sitting in a tin can Far above the world Planet Earth is blue And there's nothing I can do Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles I'm feeling very still And I think my spaceship knows which way to go Tell my wife I love her very much she knows Ground Control to Major Tom Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong Can you hear me, Major Tom Can you hear me, Major Tom Can you hear me, Major Tom Can you Here am I floating round my tin can Far above the Moon Planet Earth is blue And there's nothing I can do
