David Bowie is dead

David Bowie Gayles.tv David Bowie is dead

LAST HOUR GAYLES.TV.- There is no way to embellish the headline, because it is horrible news and any other phrase would be an euphemism. David Bowie has left us, goodbye Commander Tom, Bowie begins his last space odyssey ... No, death has taken one of the oldest brothers of a generation and there is no way to soften that, simply David Bowie is dead.

Today the obituaries will talk about the fact that he was one of the greatest figures of pop, electronic music, plastic soul or glam rock. That he was multifaceted and great not only as a musician, but in everything he did: cinema, music production, arrangements and compositions for other musicians. All that information is now going around the world in the newspapers, when not even Wikipedia has updated its text to add the fateful end date, January 11, 2016, just three days after turning 69 and giving us his last disk, "Blackstar", with titles that today seem to us loaded with meaning as "Lazarus" or "I David Bowie Gayles.tvCan't Give Everything Away ”.

But there will be no place for all the paths that he opened, that he opened for us. Today that we talk about pansexualism and diversity, how can we not remember his great and androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust,  there's a starman waiting in the sky?  Who will mention the irreverent and sensual vampire who shared "The Craving" with Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon? What king of the goblins will guide us through the labyrinth? We also owe him his declaration of bisexuality in 1972 !, when years later he confessed that despite, in fact, being bisexual, he did it more as «a compulsion to evade moral codes than for a true biological and psychological state of being» . An entire declaration of principles.

We will continue to be in love with her two-colored eyes, her ambivalence, her glamor and her elegance. And tonight, when we look up to the sky and see a star cross the sky, we will know that it is Bowie who flies over us sitting on the tin can of his ship, floating in a strange environment, fascinated by the stars that today shine differently for him . While far down there, the world, the planet Earth is sadder than ever and he, who broke all the molds, who created, invented and reinvented himself until the last day, there is nothing he can do to comfort us.

I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in the most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here I am sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do.

We leave you with three versions of "Space Oddity", the first original of 1969, the best known of 1972 and the strange version in Italian that he published on his album "Rare" with the title of "Ragazzo solo, Ragazza sola". It is our little tribute.

Until always David, Major Tom, thank you for making us freer, lighter, more irreverent, less transcendent.
