Now they are just teasing us!!!! Yeah I know huh! And Adam..I think you just need to drop your album already, cause it seems that you just keep having ideas after ideas, to the point you're never going to be finished with this album.  |

A psychiatrist would have a field day with today's thread. It goes from frustration to fury to jubilation. I'm definitely relishing the jubilation part because going to bed after the frustration or fury part just doesn't work for me. My mood changer was the Leno IIHY video, always one of my favorites. Maybe it's just the pants. It is the pants....the sparkle makes them magic! |

Nile Rodgers!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not just Bowie --- but in an odd full circle moment he produced Madonna's IMO best music -- Material Girl and Like a Virgin. Last I heard he was battling cancer but still working. I went to a cancer research benefit he was involved with recently. I am tired and my memory is a bit unreliable right now -- moving overload so correct me if I have mixed this up. I would be thrilled if he lent some killer guitar to Adam's new album. The whole tweet sequence seems designed to amuse us and generate buzz -- mark me a skeptic about these public album chatter tweets being impromptu, but please keep them up. You're right, Nile Rogers is battling cancer. In googling about him I found this article: David Bowie has sent a message of support to wish producer Nile Rogers - who he has worked with on two solo albums - well in his cancer battle.
The legendary 'Space Oddity' singer and songwriter rarely appears or speaks publicly anymore, but today (03.02.11) sent a message to the producer wish him well in his present battle against cancer. The pair previously worked together on David's records 'Fame' in 1983 and 'Black Tie White Noise' in 1993.
The message on www.davidbowie.com stated: "All our love and support goes out to you, Nile, you are the greatest. David, and all at BowieNet."
Nile - who was the guitarist in funk band Chic and has produced records for some of the biggest names in pop including Michael Jackson and Madonna - revealed he has been suffering from cancer since October 2010 last month, adding he had kept it secret, as he didn't want his family to worry.
Describing his experience he said: "I found out I had aggressive cancer. In an instant, everything in my happy-music universe imploded. It was like Jaws was savagely eating me from the inside out." Link: www.contactmusic.com/news/david-bowie-sends-message-of-hope-to-nile-rogers_1198271 |

I'll admit to being a simpleton in many ways.
I have nothing to contribute to the discussion/opinions regarding the bastard album-to-be.
When all the dust settles, I'm telling you - I will want every knitted thread, every snippet, every example of Adam's voice. I hunger for every song he's ever sung. How will I get it? No clue. But I will need and desire and yearn and ask for every spine-tingling note as if I were begging for the drug that will keep me sane.
I'm observing a controversy I can't move forward - - - I have no knowledge and no clue who is doing what, or why - - - and when all is said and done I will base my feelings entirely upon what I hear from Adam. Primarily because I want to be as good and kind as he. I don't know how he feels today. I am judging his judges; his cohorts and mentors of years ago. How can I step into the shoes they wore? When they were so busy trying? Working together? I'll excuse myself from this discussion and move to simpler pursuits.
So - right now I will be selfish and focus on me!!
A relentless sap, I am. Moments ago we sold my car. My car I got from my dad when he died in 1998. It was a really good car. But it's time for a change.
I'm crying over goodbye to a fucking car. My friend is dying of brain cancer. Where are my priorities?
Where are ours?
