David Bowie

j'ai appris son décès alors que j'étais en Islande.
c'est étrange, avant de partir, Yohann et moi avons écouté un CD de lui.

si je ne devais écouter qu'un artiste sur une île déserte, ça pourrait être David Bowie.
homme libre qui aura marqué ma génération,
on n'osait pas dire à nos parents qu'on l'aimait, ça les aurait terrifiés.
j'ai le regret de ne l'avoir jamais vu sur scène.

Paix à son âme

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day
And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that
Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be heroes, forever and ever
What'd you say?
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, forever and ever
Oh we can be heroes, just for one day
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day
I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, forever and ever
Then we could be heroes, just for one day1

We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day
Just for one day
