David Bowie, "Blackstar"
For any number of reasons I tend not to watch a lot of long videos on the Internet, so it must say something strong indeed about this hour-long BBC documentary on David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust period that after being deposited there by a YouTube rabbit hole I still stayed for the whole show. Coincidentally, as I finished it up yesterday afternoon, this promotion for Bowie’s latest emerged, which, at 10 minutes, is no small commitment itself. So if you’ve got a good chunk of time this morning and are so inclined, you could watch Bowie at the beginning of his career and then see how it winds down. It’s like the circle of life, or something. Enjoy.
