  Bowie is one of those rare artists whose passing way really hurt us. A very intelligent artist.

  Rock and Roll Suicide saved my life. 34 years ago, I was raging alcoholic in a terminal freefall. While driving 80 mph on the Interstate, I was at rock bottom considering moving the steering wheel to the right just enough to go off the road into the trees. This song came on my stereo. I heard it a zillion times, but it was the first time I really understood why someone would kill themselves. It was an eternal moment when time stopped at high speed. “Oh no, Love. You’re not alone!… Give me your hand. You’re wonderful”<br>That moment brought me back from the brink. I choose to live. I have had a drink since. It was hard, but I am still here. Thanks, Dave.

  The guitar and the arrangements both were the work of the immortal Mick Ronson.

  However Isaac came to the notion that this is a &apos;concept&apos; album it&apos;s doing him no favours in &apos;hearing&apos; this music. He&apos;s trying hard to work out the &apos;story&apos; while hearing the engineering, as the &apos;Bowie-ness&apos; (Ziggy-ness ?...) sails by. :cat-orange-whistling:

  This album changed everything. &nbsp; In my school people started wearing their hair like Ziggy. &nbsp; Rock was never the same after this album.

  Bowie was a genius. With Ziggy he created and tore down a rock god in under 40 minutes. I was 15 when it came out and paved the way for Diamond Dogs during a time when the stereo was in the living room. I listened and sang along with corded headphones and my parents didn’t know what to think. But they kept buying the albums on my wish list. ❤

  When he first hit it big Bowie was asked by a reporter how it felt to be a rock star. &quot;I&apos;m not a rock star. I&apos;m an artist and Rock-n-Roll is my medium.&quot; Brilliant!

  I worked with Bowie in the early 90s, at Giant Station, a week of high steel building the stage and an MTV gig where he recorded &nbsp;the iconic &quot;I want my MTV&quot; &nbsp;TV spots in different languages. He was in a hurry with dozens of interviews before performing, asked if we could get him in and out, but took the time to shake each of our hands and learn our names. A Real British Gentleman. That night was the very last time he performed the song &quot;Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars&quot;

  That was Ziggy singing, &nbsp;and Bowie singing and used different types of singing style to separate them from each other

  Mick Ronson on lead guitar.... &nbsp; Moonage Daydream was a master class in pull vibrato and sustain...

  Bowie&apos;s whole way of singing, his whole musical persona, changes from album to album. This Ziggy voice is not the same as the Young Americans voice, is not the same as the Let&apos;s Dance voice.
