Jamie Starr & Ziggy Boy

There are a few things about my 2 fave ones - Prince & Bowie I am curious to know!

Can I count on you guys? wink

Okay, here they come...

1. Have they ever met (I mean have they ever had a conversation about anything)?

2. (If they have met) has anybody got any kind of picture both of them (together)?

3. What do they think about each other's music, art, career, etc...?

4. Has Prince ever listened to Bowie records when he was a teenager?


Thanx 4 your reply - I hope you will... wink

actually,prince and bowie were kinda tight in the late 80's.
when bowie's "glass spider" tour came to minneapolis in 1987,
prince went to every show(i think 3 shows)after the shows they partied at paisley park,prince showed bowie his channhassen mansion and prince rented
out the local theater in channhassen to give bowie and his crew a private
screening of sign o' the times!

Prince was always into David Bowie. Prince got the androgyny, glam look, make up from Bowie. Prince was a new waver. He was a rebel. Dez Dickerson was glam rock. Prince attended David Bowie's 50th birthday celebration concert at Madison Square Garden on January 9th 1997. David Bowie has said that 1999 is his favourite album.
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

Come to think of it, in many ways that is who Prince reminds me of NOW as he's matured. David is settled and married to Iman. Prince is doing the same being settled and married to Mani. Their styles are very similar in dress, etc. They are both cool, calm, collected and yet classy.

Bowie cited Prince in The song ZEROES(Never let me down 1987)

read Lyrics....




ZEROES

[Ladies and Gentlemen
[Tonight, yes, the Zeroes will be singing for you!]

Yeah Yeah (x4)

You've arrived in the land
of a thousand different names
And the fabulous sons have crashed their planes in flames
Now tomorrow's back claiming redemption is on your heels
And a toothless past is asking you
how it feels
And me my little red Corvette
has driven by

My fair weather heart has fallen in
My rainy day girl
is feeling down

And she tells me
that the world is spinning round
I say the dream was all for you
You're nobody else
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you

Yeah Yeah
Yeah

Hi, can I walk you home
again today
Gotta get forgive and forget hey-hey
Something good is happening I don't know what it is
Don't you know we're back on trial again today

And it's breaking wine for you
Hell it's only 'cause you're true
Someone outtimed my heart
Stopping and preaching
and letting love in
You are my moon, you are my sun
Heaven knows what you are
Tonight the Zeroes are singing for you
Yes they were
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you
Tonight the Zeroes were singing for you

Doesn't matter what you try to do
Doesn't matter what you try to do
Doesn't matter where you try to go
Doesn't matter who we really are

I saw a concert of the Glass spiders Tour in Sydney. It sucked big time, and was DAMN expensive. What a rip-off! I was SO disappointed.

The 70s for Bowie was like the 80s for Prince. Very creative albums and films. The 80s for Bowie was like the 90s for Prince. The silly Labrinth movie and Prince trying to do hip hop. The 90s was a artistic return for Bowie with Earthling and now Prince has a artistic return with Rainbow Children (& Musicology).
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

I have listened to that song like 500 times, and never made the connection.
Funny.

When fans were allowed to e-mail questions to 0(+> for the original www.dawn.com website (or was it www.thedawn.com whatever... a long time ago) one of the questions was would he consider working together with David Bowie. His answer was simply "U should have been there." So apparently they have done something together in the studio while he was staying in Minneapolis.

How old were you in 1987? Go see The Man Who Fell To Earth (1976)! Also see The Hunger with Bauhaus (1983)!
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

Both good movies, but Labyrinth is good too, in it's own special puppet-filled way. lol
