I can either take or leave music.  I find most songs totally nauseating, which probably explains why so many aspiring groups NEVER make it. Just because you can sing, don't mean that you can write music, nor if their version of a song is worth listening to.  Usually, it is not.

Not everybody likes every musician. I honestly can't think of one Bowie 
song that I like. Choice is good in music as well as in Linux 
distributions.

I don't know how anyone could not like Golden Years. However, I have to
say that I found Bowie's music to be pretty awful as well.

Yeah, I have to add Fame to my list. Other than that, I pretty much
hated him and thought that he was the creepiest-looking individual in
the world.

Cat People (Putting Out Fire), Rebel Rebel, Suffragette City, Ziggy 
Stardust, Young Americans, Changes, Modern Love, All The Young Dudes, 
etc.  He put out a bunch of good tunes.

I'm sad he died - I thought he was the shit when I was in high school.

You just need a fresh listen:

Rebel Rebel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U16Xg_rQZkA
Suffragette: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLnPd7lzT4g
Ziggy:       https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXq5VvYAI1Q

It was a hit for Mott, but Bowie wrote it, produced it for Mott, and 
later performed and recorded it himself.


>> etc.  He put out a bunch of good tunes.

I forgot Under Pressure, which he co-wrote with Queen.

I do not.

It was rather amusing when he finally found success because suddenly EVERY 
British band was trying to cash in on the glam look. The image of Mick 
Jagger wearing lipstick and mascara still haunts me. And I will never 
forget seeing Uriah Heep on the Midnight Special; all dolled up like 
hookers. Jeez.

Hehe.  I would not doubt that Mick and David were "friends with benefits."

What would prompt you to say that?

Family Guy once played this video in its entirety, followed by Peter 
saying "that actually happened, and we let it."

On the other hand, it was probably made just to make the straights 
uncomfortable.

Probably this:

--
Buckley writes, "If Ziggy confused both his creator and his audience, a big part of that confusion centred on the topic of sexuality."[219] Bowie declared himself gay in an interview with Michael Watts in 22 January 1972 issue of Melody Maker,[220] a move which coincided with the first shots in his campaign for stardom as Ziggy Stardust.[50] In a September 1976 interview with Playboy, Bowie said: "It's true--I am a bisexual. But I can't deny that I've used that fact very well. I suppose it's the best thing that ever happened to me."[221] According to Angie, Bowie had a relationship with Mick Jagger.[222][223]

Now, whether or not Angle knows or would be truthful about it...

.Not really.

.I listen to the 2003 60 Minutes interview, which was never broadcast. I can see why that drivel was never put on the air. What a crock of hogwash!

.If you can get over the queer, makeup, and illegal drugs factor, which I cannot, the guy shares a lot in common with Obama. Just like Obama, Bowie could babble on all day long and say virtually nothing.

.Listening to musicians talk is a lot like listening to athletes carry on so. They all have a special knack for making any sane person want to escape from their presence.

.In short, David Bowie was bad news and at best was good for perhaps one or two songs.

We already know you are an idiot, you don't have to keep boasting and 
broadcasting the fact.

Try focusing this time. I am protected. Are you?

.Association between serum 25(OH) vitamin D, incident liver cancer and chronic liver disease mortality

.I told you so. :)

http://tinyurl.com/zw3vaqd

.Vitamin D protects against liver cancer in European study
http://news.emory.edu/stories/2014/06/vitamin_D_liver_cancer_europe/
."Vitamin D has been shown to play an important role in liver function. Now a new study in Western Europeans shows that vitamin D lowers the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the main form of liver cancer."


.Then in another study ...
."a significant association between serum 25(OH) vitamin D concentrations and risk of liver cancer incidence was observed in the higher serum calcium subgroup ... "
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3790191/#__sec12title

.Calcium ions in the blood is a necessary cofactor of vitamin D. Of course, there are other cofactors, such as selenium.

.If the public ONLY had a brain.
