Today we were watching Almost Famous OnDemand. I've had Bowie's live cover in my head since we watched the scene when William's sister, Zoey Deschanel, played the original for her mother, Frances McDormand, as the reason she was leaving home. As I heard the song, I mentioned to Michelle that I had a version by Bowie. This cover is simply Bowie's ode to America. He played this at the Concert for New York in honor of the fallen heroes on 9/11. This is one of the most uni... MORE

drinking milk shakes cold and long,
smiling and waving and looking so fine,

the way that you talk,
i kiss you, you're beautiful,
i want you to walk." gympumpkin put me in a bowie mood recently with an elsewhere song post about life on mars, and he's stuck ... MORE
I wanted to post this Bowie song just because I really love it. Not sure why but it made me think of other men songs I like. Like Robyn Hitchcock's "The Man Who Invented Himself". I noticed that there's quite a large number of "The Man With The (insert descriptive word or phrase here)" songs. I think there's probably enough for a whole mix cd. Whether or not this would be a good mix I don't know. Here's what I got so far: Robyn Hitchcock - The Man With The Lightbu... MORE
