Actually all music is silly and irrelevant when we look at it philosophically.
As is mankind itself according to existentialists. Sartre had it right when he
stated, "Man is a useless passion". Music is simply another futile means to try to allay man's purposeless life and suffering.
"We are such stuff as dreams {nightmares} are made on, and our little life is
rounded by a sleep"--Shakespeare.
I remember a long time ago you admitted that you were a fan of his (to Mark Mushet,
iirc). Apparently there's a hold-up at the Pearly Gates though, as they're still trying
to decide whether or not to let Lemmy in, so Bowie will have to wait.
I was impressed with his business acumen more than his music.
Can't argue with that kind of success.
