David Bowie - A sequential chronology of song with ten of my favourites from his more than 250 published songs. This follows an afternoon at the #DavidBowieis exhibition @ACMI #Melbourne on September 4. It was fantastic.
1. It's 1967 and #Bowie produces a kitsch single, derided by the music literati, but is very popular with the public. It signals the real start and climb of a lifetime of successful music.
Bowie was the artist who most provided my primary interest in music and movement. Over five decades my constantly evolving eclectic taste in music has been influenced by his style. He is a multi domain artist with talent more broad than being simply singer-songwriter. His skill transcends multi-instrument musician, singer, songwriter, designer (costume and sets), artist, actor. To me he is a complete artist in the fullest meaning of the word.
