Hai sicuramente visto il video, questo è il testo
Blackstar
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah-ah, ah-ah
In the centre of it all, in the centre of it all
Your eyes
On the day of execution, on the day of execution
Only women kneel and smile, ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, at the centre of it all
Your eyes, your eyes
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen
Stands a solitary candle, ah-ah, ah-ah
In the centre of it all, in the centre of it all
Your eyes
Ah-ah-ah
Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre and stepped aside
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
How many times does an angel fall?
How many people lie instead of talking tall?
He trod on sacred ground, he cried loud into the crowd
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar, I’m not a gangstar)
I can’t answer why (I’m a blackstar)
Just go with me (I’m not a filmstar)
I’m-a take you home (I’m a blackstar)
Take your passport and shoes (I’m not a popstar)
And your sedatives, boo (I’m a blackstar)
You’re a flash in the pan (I’m not a marvel star)
I’m the Great I Am (I’m a blackstar)
I’m a blackstar, way up, on money, I’ve got game
I see right, so wide, so open-hearted pain
I want eagles in my daydreams, diamonds in my eyes
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
Something happened on the day he died
Spirit rose a metre then stepped aside
Somebody else took his place, and bravely cried
(I’m a blackstar, I’m a star's star, I’m a blackstar)
I can’t answer why (I’m not a gangstar)
But I can tell you how (I’m not a film star)
We were born upside-down (I’m a star's star)
Born the wrong way ‘round (I’m not a white star)
(I’m a blackstar, I’m not a gangstar
I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar
I’m not a pornstar, I’m not a wandering star
I’m a blackstar, I’m a blackstar)
In the villa of Ormen stands a solitary candle
Ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes
On the day of execution, only women kneel and smile
Ah-ah, ah-ah
At the centre of it all, your eyes, your eyes
Ah-ah-ah
Blackstar

Intorno all'una stanotte, con le tapparelle tirate su, le luci del porto vecchio di Sanremo ad illuminare il mio bi-locale, mi sono concesso una serata con la mia amante preferita: la musica.
Cuffiette delle grandi occasioni issate e via d'ascolto per questo "Blackstar".
Album difficilissimo di primo acchito, ma che bello. Quando ascolto ancora qualcosa che sa stupirmi e che mi fa correre i brividi lungo la spina dorsale è un segno inequivocabile, della grandezza di un lavoro. E capita sempre più di rado...
Io non l'ho minimamente metabolizzato, ma ho percepito dei grandi suoni, un album finalmente "compatto" un progetto d'insieme e finalmente il ritorno a 7 traccie (com'era nel vinile) senza riempitivi da skippare e luxe than de-luxe version.
Ora posso andare a leggere i Vostri sempre preziosi commenti, pre lutto.
Ha lasciato un gran bel testamento musicale, si può ancora fare della bella musica al di fuori di logiche commerciali, di cosa poi non so...viste le esigue vendite.

David Bowie aveva in programma un altro album dopo "Blackstar”
«La sua energia era ancora incredibile per un uomo che aveva il cancro», dice lo storico produttore Tony Visconti. «Non ha mai ceduto alla paura»

Ho letto solo ieri l'articolo di Suzanne Moore su The Guardian
http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfre ... ve-forever
"That door. He unlocked it. For me, for you. For us. He gave us everything. He gave us ideas, ideas above our station. All THE ideas and a specific one. Of life. The stellar idea that we can create ourselves whoever we are. He let us be more than we ever knew possible. There is nothing greater. Nothing."

Ancora Iggy:
"David was not a person to waste a piece of music: Never waste an idea. I first heard his 1980 song "Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)" when we were in a house on Sunset Boulevard in 1974. It was called "Running Scared" at the time. He was playing it on the guitar and wanted to know if I could do something with it. I couldn't. He kept it and worked it up.
That was another big thing I learned: Don't throw stuff away."
