Bing Crosby singing with Bowie isn't even the weirdest thing in that show. Twiggy meets Charles Dickens and then they sing a song about the characters from Dickens stories... I wish I was making it up... it's weirder than that, even...

Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:26pm
Krys O.:

The video he made for Lazarus really brings the point home. I pre-ordered Blackstar and it arrived on 1/8, his birthday and the release date. I listened with goosebumps and tears from the beauty. He died frigging days later and it was too much too bear. Couldn't listen to Blackstar for months.

Pin-ups was my entry point and I was sold from that point on. I had to go back to his very early material when I was in college. I'm most definitely a Bowie-phile.

This is on Adrian Belew's album Young Lions which is fantastic, by the way. Yes, that's Adrian singing. He was in Bowie's touring band for a while.

And, yes, I loved Tin Machine naysayers be damned. I used to play them on my show on terrestrial WFMU. Whenever I did there was a guy who'd call up because he was Reeves Gabrels' roommate years ago and could spot his guitar playing in a skinny minute.

Adrian Belew is touring with a tribute to the Talking Heads’ “Remain in Light.” Which is kinda weird, but since Belew plays on it, guess it’s ok.

I just saw that the last night of the Remain in Light tour is at the Capitol Theater in my hometown of Port Chester, NY.

Speaking of which, Bowie played a concert at the Capitol for MTV when the Rolling Stones had to cancel. That was in the late 90s with Gail Ann Dorsey, the GOAT. :)

I never saw Bowie, but I saw the Portland punk band, Rancid Vat, do a set of deconstructed "Bowie" covers, under the name "Bowie-cide," once. This was before Bowie passed, so it was in better taste than it sounds.
