Without Bowie in it. Dammit.
The remarkable thing is Blackstar was clearly his way of saying goodbye. He had to know. Right? He had to know it was his swan song. Goddammit, every artist should be so lucky, so poetic, and so grand. Everyone should get a chance to say goodbye.

Agreed. Most of us have no idea when we will breathe our last breath. I guess Bowie's health was like a ticking timebomb and he knew when the alarm would go off. Luckily he was able to hang on two days after the release of his last album. I hope he passed on knowing he was loved by millions.

I think he did, @linnova. I have to admire his strength of will to keep creating right until his final days. Such a remarkable accomplishment in a lifetime of remarkable accomplishments.
