Im not really saying that, all Im saying is that he seemed to be a jack of all trades and a master of none. He seems to have been acting all the time. Wheres the real Bowie? Is it the Bowie you hear in the Berlin trilogy? Is it the Bowie you hear on Diamond Dogs or Scary Monsters? Either way I don't really care because Im not a fan of his songwriting. I can intellectualise it all I want and go into exisentialist concepts but it basically comes down to the fact that I don't really like too many of his songs.
