David Bowie - 'Blackstar'

I can't wait for new Bowie music. He hasn't written a song I don't like in his whole career. :flutter:

 

And regarding the whole Gaga situation, We really don't know what he thinks of her but the only time there's been any mention of Gaga from David Bowie (or I should say one of his representatives) was when he denied the rumor that they collaborated on a track called Vinyl for Born This Way. This was either late 2010 or early 2011, I can't remember. 

 

So its safe to assume that he isn't a fan since the only mention of her name was to deny any involvement with her. Assuming he doesn't like her, the issue is probably her constant referencing, naming him as one of her biggest influences, yet her sound was very conventional, commercial pop (with heavy dance influence during a period when dance wasn't ruling the charts,) but still so much more conventional than anything Bowie's released. He probably didn't take her seriously because she seemed like more of a product than an artist during her debut. Or it could be some other reason, but imagine how awkward it would be if he really doesn't like her music after all the times she's mentioned him. She even used "What Would Bowie Do?" as a way to guide her in her creative decisions before and during her debut.

 

But let's also keep in mind Gaga has met with Iman a couple times, right? And they seem to be friends or at least have had a talk and got on well. I doubt Iman would be associating with Gaga if David has issues with her.

 

It's also a possibility that David has been in contact with Gaga and they keep it private and/or just haven't actually met in person. I think she answered no when asked if they'd met in an interview during the ARTPOP era? Could be wrong with that it may have been Born This Way era or 2012. But in an even earlier interview when asked about her interactions with her musical icons, she said she chooses to keep some encounters private because they are sacred to her. 

 

We'll never really know until David actually states his opinion directly I guess :koons:

I don't remember where I read it. It was a few years ago :emma:

 

I've heard he does yes :ghostney:

 

And i heard that Obama, Putin and Merkel are aliens :coffee:

This is how rumors arise about things which are not true. He never said that and the rest is speculation from you and some people.

Wait. Does he hate her?:awkney:

No David Bowie is not the kind of guy to expose himself a lot..; I don't remember him talking a lot about other artists...

If he had acknowledged Gaga maybe I'd give attention to his new music. The more he insists on ignoring her the more I'll give him the same treatment. I know he doesn't need my attention but still...

I just said what I've heard. I didn't claim it was true :shrug:

but don't you agree it's weird that he still pays her dust after all nice things she has said about him?

Lose control. Let go and fall. Do you get the satisfaction?
