“As an adolescent, I was pain-
fully shy, withdrawn. I didn’t
really have the nerve to sing my
songs on stage and nobody else
was doing them. I decided to do
them in disguise so that I didn’t
have to actually go through the
humiliation of going on stage
and being myself.
I continued designing char-
acters with their own complete
personalities and environments.
I put them into interviews with
me! Rather than be me — which
must be incredibly boring to
anyone — I’d take Ziggy in, or
Aladdin Sane or The Thin White
Duke.” — David Bowie.
I didn’t like all of David Bow-

It was a shock to hear of his
passing. But, as usual, he let his
work speak for him.
“Blackstar,” released just last
week, couples his voice with or-
chestral jazz arrangements, all
over the creative map.
It breaks all the rules with a
10-minute video of the opening
album track.
His Off-Broadway show
Lazurus closes Jan. 20.
If he had to go, he couldn’t
have planned his exit any better.
RIP, Mr. Bowie and thank you
for the times you shared.
