    Hey Happy belated 30th Birthday :joy: and Happy New Year to you and your little family!

    Happy New Year to all you Loungers!!! :peace:

    Sunday nights are much the same. Well into the evening, the house is quiet and the night train crawls through town, click...clack. The night conductor checks his watch, quietly makes his way down the isle, steps out onto the platform for a quick smoke in the chill night air. In the distance, all the lights turn green and red. Solitude.

    David Bowie, gone. I can't believe it. I hope a drink is not out of order. :frowning:

    First words from my sweetheart this morning - "did you hear?" And then, "ashes to ashes".

    I think my favorite is what I've posted more than a few times, Heroes from Bridge School, with his angelic sidekick.

    He was a legend and inspiration in so many ways, a man who truly dared to be himself...

    Cheers, guvnah!

    Been getting some amazing winter sunrises here lately - you too? And bring on the rain!

    My goodness, Annie is just beauty (as I'm sure your feline version is too ;) )

    Wonderful Hedo... she is just an outstanding woman and singer!

    Thank you for that ... haven't heard that this special version until now.
    Right after that the video of Annie and David Bowie started, doing this wonderful tribute to Freddie Mercury with Queen in 1992. Unforgettable ... hope they would do something like that for Bowie...

    Annie Lennox- pretty cool! You know what's weird though is I can't find any links to any songs from The Tourists' "Luminous Basement".

    kce, I could totally hear Bowie covering the song I posted. Gorgeous voices, similar in ways.

    B, I searched that out and could only find them covering I Only Want to be with You. I swear Shaun Cassidy or Leif Garrett covered that in the 70s too =)

    Fine, I have no fucking idea what Keith says at the beginning of this but such an unexpected cover!

    I always thought it interesting how I can clearly understand him when he sings, but when he talks it's mush.
