merry 圣诞节 mr lawrence (1983) - father 圣诞节

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from Mars was released June 6, 1972 in the UK and in the US September 1, 1972. David Bowie's first alter ego came from the name of a 伦敦 tailor's 商店 Bowie saw riding on a train. The band the spiders from Mars consisted of Mick Ronson (guitar) Trevor Boulder (bass) and Mick "Woody" Woodmansey (drums). David Bowie declared after a few years that this would be the last 显示 the spiders from Mars would ever do and in 1973 killed off Ziggy. The album still remains a classic today.

I've known who Bowie was since I was 10 and have been a fan...

“Little Bombardier;” is the tragic tale of the termination of a retired soldier’s innocent friendship with a pair of young children due to the cynicism of those in authority. Regardless the ties to Bowie’s own life, and the messages it holds in that aspect, it is applicable to almost any situation of ultra-cynicism and suspicion. Bowie ridicules the distrustful nature of most people today – a nature transferred upon people through the medium of the tabloids and general press, and the constant depravation and corruption which is constantly lambasted and emphasised 由 these mediums....

“We Are Hungry Men;” Is an amusing look at the idea of the world over-populating, and the nature of those who make to bring this message of impending doom to the general population. It explores the idea that those who are pushing the message of over-population are selfish and “not your friends,” as they attempt to do anything they can to continue their own personal existences, regardless of what others may want.
The track explores the idea of a lack of political conscience, and the full egos of those in control who are shocked when their message of ‘salvation’ is not taken well....

“Did 你 Ever Have a Dream;” Is a jaunty snapshot of the other-worldly brilliance of dreams, which we tend to take for granted. “I will travel round the world one night, on the magic wings of astral flight,” is but one of the lines from this song which attempts to point out the obvious; dreams are “A very special knowledge,” and they’re something which is totally ethereal. People tend to accept dreams for what they are: commonplace. Certainly, some people lay great stock 由 their dreams and others will gleefully tell 你 of their imaginary night-time exploits, but the general...

“Sell Me A Coat;” Shares elements of “Uncle Arthur,” as it gives a clear picture of Bowie’s purest voice, however the general tone and subject of the song is 总体, 整体 更多 sombre thanks to the introduction of a slower rhythm and dejected plaint from Bowie.
Introduced 由 the slow, sure intonation of “La la la la la,” “Sell Me A Coat” creates a bittersweet picture of Bowie’s loss of his “Summer girl.” Whether physical 或者 purely metaphorical, this story, however peculiarly executed, certainly proved a foundation for some of Bowie’s later work; introducing his tendency to...

“Uncle Arthur;” This buoyant melody, inspired 由 Bowie’s incredulity and subsequent interest in one of his friend’s confessions that they were not a twenty-year old musician, but a twenty-seven 年 old uncle is equipped with hand-clapping and a sweet, honest delivery 由 Bowie. With a touch of pointed mirth, this song proves itself a simple, catchy tune which seems to be laughing at Bowie’s own aspirations to fame. With a simple chord structure and range, its feel-good aura is contagiously fun. Personally, I immediately took a liking to the openness of Bowie’s voice in this song,...
