This Is Not America, you know. He was the Man Who Sold the World his music rights during his Golden Years. That's the price of Fame, and sooner or later, everything Changes. Now it's all just Ashes to Ashes.

Like some other Young Americans, I'm Hunky Dory. Maybe Somebody Up There Likes Me.

If anyone knows how to navigate the Labyrinth of international finance, it would be David Bowie

And you EPIC FAIL. It's in the very Boobies. Turn in your badge at the door.

So... is David Bowie "Bad To The Loan"?

...oh, wait

/i fails @ fark :(

I don't see it as an epic fail when the postum primus links a bundle of Bowie song titles together. Someone's doing that for the Gaza Strip affair over in politics with Dire Straits songs, for gods sakes. It's not clever. However, the whole concept of Bowie, being the unknowing pangenitor of this global crisis that lead to this depression, surely makes "The man who sold the world" the only Bowie track you need to quote to make it relevant. Or should I quote something from the Labyrinth soundtrack ("Underground" works pretty well for most western nations right now I guess, Daddy Daddy, Get me out of here. I'm underground).

One of Britain's leading economic pundits asks: Is David Bowie to blame for the credit crunch?

By Evan Davis

Fail. The article doesn't ever mention who the "leading British economic pundit" is.

I agree

Fail. The article doesn't ever mention who the "leading British economic pundit" is.

The article was written by the pundit ("By Evan Davis") and the editors must have added" "leading British economic pundit" to the article headine... there's a big picture of him down the page that says, "Economic pundit Evan Davis".

Yes.

This is bad news... For David Bowie.
/at least he's not a Rock and Roll Suicide.

The Sovereign did no such wrong.

Holy Holy Holy ...

Did any one else see this guys head and say wtf?

It's not really work.

It's just the power to charm...

Is this Ziggy Stardust David Bowie or Bowie from the Ashes to Ashes video?

it's pronounced bow wie.

findthefish: Is this Ziggy Stardust David Bowie or Bowie from the Ashes to Ashes video?

No Bret. It's David Bowie from the 1986 movie Labyrinth.

I just hope that David Bowie watches out for that table..

I get all of my financial advice from Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead.

somebody please post Bowie's mugshot!

/best. mugshot. ever.

This is why I put all my money in Booty's Rubber Bonds.

Well, thanks to Major Tom we'll all be sitting (not to mention living) in a tin cans.

I had no trouble getting a new car loan at a nice 7% fixed. Shopped around and found various willing and able financial institutions ready to lend. The media needs to stop blowing this "credit crunch" bull shiat out of proportion.

Iraq was getting better and there was an election. Plus McCain was leading! Of course the media had to act and act quickly.

I heard David Bowie once date raped Bill Brasky.

So Bowie's ahead of his time again. Saw downloads coming and got paid up front. Wonder how much "Bowie Bonds" are making now?

/dug him at RCA, after not so much.
