David Bowie | Heroes

I, I will be king

And you, you will be queen

Though nothing, will drive them away

We can beat them, just for one day

We can be heroes, just for one day

 

And you, you can be mean

And I, I’ll drink all the time

‘Cause we’re lovers, and that is a fact

Yes we’re lovers, and that is that

 

Though nothing, will keep us together

We could steal time, just for one day

We can be heroes, forever and ever

What d’you say?

 

I, I wish you could swim

Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim

 

Though nothing, nothing will keep us together

We can beat them, forever and ever

Oh we can be heroes, just for one day

 

I, I will be king

And you, you will be queen

Though nothing, will drive them away

We can be heroes, just for one day

We can be us, just for one day

 

I, I can remember (I remember)

Standing, by the wall (by the wall)

And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)

And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)

 

And the shame, was on the other side

Oh we can beat them, forever and ever

Then we could be heroes, just for one day

We can be heroes

We can be heroes

We can be heroes, just for one day

We can be heroes

 

We’re nothing, and nothing will help us

Maybe we’re lying, then you better not stay

But we could be safer, just for one day

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day

David Bowie | Absolute Beginners

I’ve nothing much to offer
There’s nothing much to take
I’m an absolute beginner
But I’m absolutely sane
As long as we’re together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we’re absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean
Just like the films
There’s no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It’s absolutely true

Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can’t shake
Oh, we’re absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake
As long as you’re still smiling
There’s nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But we’re absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
We’re certain to succeed

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Sail over heartaches
Just like the films
If there’s reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It’s absolutely true

‘Cause we’re lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we’re lovers, and that is that

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be heroes, forever and ever
What’d you say?

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes, just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, will drive them away
We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day

David Bowie | Heroes

David Bowie  nome artístico de David Robert Jones, Brixton, Londres, 8 de janeiro de 1947Manhattan, 10 de janeiro de 2016) foi um cantor,compositor, ator e produtor musical inglês. Por vezes referido como “Camaleão do Rock” pela capacidade de sempre renovar sua imagem, tem sido uma importante figura na música popular há cinco décadas e é considerado um dos músicos populares mais inovadores e ainda influentes de todos os tempos, sobretudo por seu trabalho nas décadas de 1970 e 1980, além de ser distinguido por um vocal característico e pela profundidade intelectual de sua obra.

Embora desde cedo tenha realizado o álbum David Bowie e diversas canções, Bowie só chamou a atenção do público em 1969, quando a canção “Space Oddity” alcançou o quinto lugar no UK Singles Chart. Após um período de três anos de experimentação, que incluem a realização de dois significativos e influentes álbuns, The Man Who Sold the World (1970) e Hunky Dory (1971), ele retorna em 1972 durante a era glam rock com um alter ego extravagante e andrógino chamado Ziggy Stardust, sustentado pelo sucesso de “Starman” e do aclamado álbum The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Seu impacto na época foi um dos maiores cultos já criados na cultura popular.  Em 1973, o disco Aladdin Sane levou Ziggy aos EUA. A vida curta da persona revelaria apenas uma das muitas facetas de uma carreira marcada pela reinvenção contínua, pela inovação musical e pela apresentação visual.

David Bowie o Camaleão completa hoje 65 anos | in “Facebook”

Falar de David Bowie é falar de um génio, e deveria ser quase como falar de um Deus.
De facto , música de Bowie deve, sem dúvida , ser considerada genial , dado a sua incontornável contribuição artística e inovadora, produzida única e exclusivamente pela sua mente brilhante e criativa.
A extinta revista britânica Melody Maker, nomeou ” Ziggy Stardust “, como o melhor disco dos anos 70, e ele com certeza figura na maior parte das listas dos melhores álbuns da história.
Toda a lenda criada em torno de “Ziggy Stardust” é justa.
Neste álbum , Bowie utilizou toda a sua apurada imaginação e senso estético para criar o personagem do rock star alienígena , que vinha do espaço para salvar a Terra.
O disco reúne algumas das composições mais famosas de Bowie como “Starman”, Sufragette City” e a homônima “Ziggy Stardust”, e se tornou um verdadeiro marco do chamado glam rock. Pouco tempo depois, Bowie assassinaria seu personagem em pleno palco. Era o fim de uma verdadeira febre que tomou de assalto a Inglaterra e, posteriormente, o mundo.
Enganou-se quem profetizou que a morte de “Ziggy Stardust” era o fim de Bowie.
O camaleão estava vivo , e ainda tinha muito para dar à musica no futuro …
