Quite a build-up to this one from 6:30am this morning UK time, with Virgin Radio boss Chris Evans pretending tofret that he hoped David would be up in time for the ‘live’ interview!
David set the scene with the information that it was 2:20am in New York and that he had just finished washing hishands, having helped some workmen to lift paving slabs after a mains pipe had burst outside in the street. If youheard the interview and believed that statement, then you have a cruel life ahead of you.
But, I believe the story was merely a vehicle for the beautifully spiritual message that followed. A message that,while it works on the literal level that David had painted in our minds to illustrate his point, it obviously holds adeeper meaning that stretches out across the nations of the Earth and is the very essence of BowieNet: “Chris”,Said David, “If you’re gonna live in a community, I really think that you have to be part of it.”
Go here for the whole thing.
