Secondo Visconti la situazione è precipitata all'improvviso...

Un ricordo simpatico di Jim Kerr

Never forget it. Aged 13 and arrived in Rimini/Italy. First time on a school trip, first time away from home.
Mum gave me £20 for spending money through the two week vacation. Seemed like a lot of money, plenty enough to last the vacation.
Within 2 hours of arriving I went out alone and found a little record shop in Rimini. The window had so many gems on display, including many Bowie singles all of which I already had back home. However, as these were Italian editions - they featured different picture sleeves, different B sides etc than the UK ones that I already owned. The version of Space Oddity even had DB singing in Italian as I recall.
I of course decided to spend all my money on those Bowie Italian editions.
Meaning that after only a couple of hours on holiday I already had no money left - with 13 days still to go. I then had to ask my friends to loan me money for panini/pizza etc for the remainder. Well actually, I met a girl from Manchester and she rather conveniently had a few quid. It all worked out beautifully.... as I fell in love.....with Italy!

Visconti noticed the tone of some of the lyrics and told him, "You canny bastard. You're writing a farewell album." Bowie simply laughed in response. "He was so brave and courageous," says Visconti. "And his energy was still incredible for a man who had cancer. He never showed any fear. He was just all business about making the album."

Nessun funerale, pare sia stato già cremato.

Comunicato della famiglia su Facebook:

THANK YOU

The family of David Bowie is currently making arrangements for a private ceremony celebrating the memory of their beloved husband, father and friend.

They ask once again that their privacy be respected at this most sensitive of times.

We are overwhelmed by and grateful for the love and support shown throughout the world.

However, it is important to note that while the concerts and tributes planned for the coming weeks are all welcome, none are official memorials organized or endorsed by the family.

Just as each and every one of us found something unique in David's music, we welcome everyone’s celebration of his life as they see fit.

For two months of 2015, someone was posting images to a tumblr called "The Villa Of Ormen". Were they #Bowie clues? http://thevillaoformen.tumblr.com/
