AS A FAN OF YOU BOTH…. I have some Suggestions of songs you might try” Days” A recent onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWDasBptBsY A song of introspection at life as we look back and thankfulness of what youth did not acknowledge the wisdom of time does see. . or perhaps “Fascination” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9QR5p7uok0 . ” Word on a wing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PYvqa7DFNc&list=RDl9QR5p7uok0&index=43 As a big an of yours and his. ( that picture with Bowie and Lil Jimmy Scott GASP!). . I think these are the deep tracks that show( fans will really appreciate .. we all know Life on Mars is going to be sung but he has wonderful other choices as good as that . What a great song writer he truly was, the words and melodies ” Word on a wing” is so dramatic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PYvqa7DFNc&list=RDl9QR5p7uok0&index=43 . . Perhaps the fitting ” You’ve been around” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-MzTl_kjAU&list=RDl9QR5p7uok0&index=30 . . And last a real gem by him when he was with Tin Machine if not” Amazing” then the appropriate ” Heavens in here” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-MzTl_kjAU&list=RDl9QR5p7uok0&index=30 I only wish that i could be there for the event. I hope they record it and give profits to cancer research, Mazet tov to all who show their love for a talent who won’t be seen ever again .. I am still so sad.
I think Wild Is The Wind is good too…Don
Heroes. But raw, please.
That’s one of my picks along with Wild Is The Wind
