Where are we now?
I woke feeling a little better after 36 hours of crushing
headaches and dizziness; Ménière's
can be an incapacitating son of a bitch sometimes.
Bleary eyed I sought out my phone to check the time, astonished to see a message alerting me to the fact that Bowie had released a new single on his birthday. My heart skipped a beat and joy literally shot through me. I was surprised by the reaction, but after ten years of silence I’d almost given up hope for anything new, assuming that Bowie would continue to tidy up his legacy and drift into old age and a Garbo period. I sat in bed completely elated to be hearing ‘Where are we now?’ whilst watching the beautiful little film, the voice intact, but showing a wonderful aged timbre and soulfulness.

As long as there's sun
As long a there's rain
As long as there's fire
As long as there's me
As long as there's you
Further investigation revealed that a new album called ‘The Next Day’ is set for release on the 11th March, the day after my own birthday. Until then I can only look at the words below and dream of the journeys to come. I love you David J
