Ich glaube nicht, dass irgendetwas von dem, was ich in meinem Leben gesagt habe, zitierwürdig ist«, hat David Bowie einmal behauptet. Zu Unrecht, wie dieses Buch zeigt, in dem Bowie die Stationen seines Lebens besichtigt, die vielen Rollen, die er in Vollendung verkörpert hat. Ob als Major Tom, als Ziggy Stardust oder im Frank-Sinatra-Look als Young American – von niemandem ließ Bowie sich vereinnahmen, den Mainstream mied er wie der Teufel das Weihwasser. Er erzählt von seiner Zeit in London, in New York und den Berliner Jahren, in denen er zu neuen musikalischen Ufern aufbrach und endlich seine Kokainsucht überwand, davon, was das Tragen eines Anzugs für das Selbstverständnis des Trägers bedeutet, und von seiner Leidenschaft für die bildende Kunst – er war ein besessener Sammler und selbst ein begabter Maler. Als er 2003 geadelt werden sollte, lehnte Bowie ab: »Ich sehe nicht, was das bringen soll. Dafür habe ich weiß Gott nicht mein Leben lang gearbeitet.« Mit David Bowies Tod 2016 ging eine Ära zu Ende, die in dieser Interviewsammlung noch einmal zum Leben erweckt wird.
