Heroes: David Bowie

Sometimes as a writer I find music bewildering. How can someone conjure up such emotion in three minutes when it takes so much effort in a book or story? What special magic is there in a great song that can take you away, towards, anywhere you like? So many songs and tracks can do this, but in my life no-one has created as much magic as David Bowie.

69 is far too bloody young, but God how he filled it: with magic, his gift to the world.

Thank you David.
