Reflecting on Bowie's life (not to mention, his death) today has been pretty dismal. A life designed to reflect the glory of the Creator who made him, all a total waste. While he was certainly talented and obviously popular, everything he did was for his own hedonistic glory. |

I like a few of his songs I guess (Major Tom is one), but I've always thought he was a weirdo. His Little-Drummer-Boy duet with Bing was probably the closest thing he ever did to any sort of "gospel" song.
He's one of those "artists" that I point at when everyone thinks Lady Gaga is so original, yeah except Bowie was doing weird stuff like that 30 years before she was born. |

Well QW , I have to say that God makes everyone for a purpose that is good. So somewhere in his lifetime God was glorified and good became out of his life.
I just dont see where but thats irrelevant. |

Hey - he put a song named "Lazarus" on his final album.
of course, judging by the lyrics - he didn't appear to get it. Looks like he was copying Ronnie Van Zants thoughts.
But you never know. Ziggy played guitar!
Lazarus
Look up here, I'm in Heaven!
I've got scars that can't be seen
I've got drama, can't be stolen,
Everybody knows me now
Look up here, man, I'm in danger!
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm so high, it makes my brain whirl
Dropped my cellphone down below
Ain't that just like me?!
By the time I got to New York
I was living like a king
Then I used up all my money
I was looking for your ass
This way or no way
You know I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Now, ain't that just like me?
Oh, I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Oh, I'll be free
Ain't that just like me? _________________ Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today! |
