I have to admit there are only a couple of David Bowie songs that I like.<\/p>\n<p>I was not one of these dyed-in-the-wool David Bowie fans but he had a couple of tunes I really like, and the first one is this one, ChiCom Girl. And there\u2019s one other. No question, he was a supremely talented rock &#8216;n\u2019 roll crooner. (playing China Girl) That wasn\u2019t nine seconds, I can tell you that. You see, remember the video to this? (song continues) I first even saw this on MTV. (song continues) David Bowie. How old was he? (interruption) Sixty-nine.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_116122\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/David-Bowie.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/><br \/>\nMy generation. I just never&#8230; The Ziggy Stardust days? I never got into it. (interruption) No, I didn\u2019t see the movie The Man Who Fell to Earth. This is it. This and the other song. (Cut to Let\u2019s Dance) These are the only two David Bowie things that I know. That\u2019s it. This is Let\u2019s Dance. These are both from the 1980s, I believe, during my absence from radio. It\u2019s when I worked for the Kansas City Royals. (interruption) Yeah, I remember playing this. Oh, yeah. (song continues)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, what was he, about five nine and a hundred pounds? I mean, he was a string bean, but he had this amazing voice. And to people that were big in the music business, he was incredibly innovative and talented, and I wanted to acknowledge his passing. But those are the only two songs. Well, that and the Major Tom thing, &#8220;Ground control to Major Tom,&#8221; which I guess is Space Oddity, which he was.
