His final single ("Lazarus"): Quote: Look up here, I’m in heaven
I’ve got scars that can’t be seen I’ve got drama, can’t be stolen Everybody knows me now Look up here, man, I’m in danger I’ve got nothing left to lose I’m so high it makes my brain whirl Dropped my cell phone down below Ain’t that just like me By the time I got to New York I was living like a king Then I used up all my money I was looking for your *** This way or no way You know, I’ll be free Just like that bluebird Now ain’t that just like me Oh I’ll be free Just like that bluebird Oh I’ll be free Ain’t that just like me |

Now I've started watching other artists' tributes. From the lousy (Madonna's Rebel Rebel - Springsteen's was better) to stuff like Elton John's Space Oddity/Rocket Man (both songs had the same producer originally). Edit: Heh. Melissa Etheridge's cover of Heroes was excellent. She tells a great story of attending an event with Bowie. |
