seu jorge! YEAH! ::EDIT: Apparently his name is jorge not george :EDIT::

I remember sitting in that movie, on christmas day and looking over towards my brother, as he was doing the same and we both said "is that David Bowie?" Then about two songs later we both concured.

Incredible song. Phish used to cover this one. Phish's version wasn't as touching.

Dunno about Mars. Never been there. But reminds me of some fine afternoons 30 years back. Which is nice.

It's funny. I associate this song with a French TV commercial.

I love this one. Probably my favorite Bowie tune. Man, was he something in the 1970s. Brought something different, something that made you take notice.

Cool story, Bill. When do you ever have time to watch TV?!?!

Brings back memories of my younger bro who used to dress up in his androgonous best ala DB.

Anyone know if DB has fully recovered from his heart surgery?
