Have you checked out Bowie's latest video? It gives me some serious H.P.L.vibes. What do you think?

Looks pretty good for his age to be perfectly honest with you my one and only friend

I'm fairly certain bowie is a black magician at this point, trying to open the gate for the great old ones.

Lovecraftian references in his work go back to the early 70's with Oh You Pretty Things.

I also thought his recent song "The Stars are Out Tonight" seemed very lovecraftian.
"Stars are never sleeping. Dead ones and the Living."
"They're waiting to make their moves. The stars are out tonight."

Bowie loves multiple layers of meanings. Of course his lyrics there were also self-referential regarding his iconic status in pop culture and that he kind of retired but only half way...
>>
>>62935408
I'm glad he's still alive and doing music, but it's just not for me. I don't like this music that sounds like it's for people his own age.

It's a shame he'll never tour again though, I never got to see him. If I was a couple years older I probably would've seen him open for NIN.
>>
>>62935461
At this point it is really very unlikeable that he will tour again. His statements regarding this are very clear.

But on the other hand: Bowie also loved to surprise people.
>>
>>62935485
Maybe he'll show up at a small show once or twice more, but he'll never do a worldwide tour with big audiences, that's for sure. So I'm out of luck either way. I'd rather he didn't tour than tour where I couldn't see him.

>>62935558
Or it's just a metaphor.

Like a black kole Bowie's iconic "mass" has become so high that everything (meaning inspirations, influences, styles) is sucked into him.
>>
Wasn't Bowie retiring from public appearances?
>>
>>62935613
Has he made any?
>>
>>62935600

Doubtful.

I mean it's a long shot at a double allusion but the anon you're addressing is likely right in his guess. It's a very common artistic motif.

Saturn has strong astrological ties to depression/disparity.

He did that in the 70s and I am sure he still uses that beat generation inspired techniqur to some degree but I doubt he totally still relies on it.

He didn't open for NIN...they opened for him.

Which was the problem with that concert...once everyone saw the more popular NIN and found out Bowie wasn't doing his older stuff anymore (as he announced on his Glass Spider tour), they literally walked out. The stands were half empty by the time his set ended, and he didn't even do an encore.

On the plus side, the Bowie set overlapped with NIN, so they did a really awesome version of Scary Monsters...

I think he's only starting to look old and he's almost 70. He still looked great 5 years ago
>>
>>62939957
Ah, I must have been mistaken because I knew the story was that most people went to see NIN. I thought people just showed up late.
