Nice.
Well apparently he wasn't terminal when he wrote this and others from the Black star album and my understanding is the terminal diagnosis was only about 3 months before the end. Nevertheless, I can't help thinking that he was deeply contemplating his own mortality at this point. He had been unwell and he did indeed have cancer. I kind of want blackstar to be about death because then for me, he becomes a true hero through his final artistic acts.
Bravo!
Try it more simple: No matter if Black Star, Morning Star, Seventh Star ... all leads to the same source: Satanism. By the way the "Dark Star" is the Symbol of the satanic church. We all know that Bowie was deeply involved in the occult and witchcraft ( which is the craft of the freemasonary religion in their highest degrees, and yes it´s a religion) especially in the mid 70s. Bowie is no exception to all other Celebrities who reached absolute starcult status. Simply they are Satan-worshippers, all initiated to the freemasonary cult, which is satanism in disguise, to push their narcistic personality and career to a certain level. You can´t reach that "certain" level without selling your soul. It´s naive to believe talent and Hard Work is enough to get to the absolute top. The difference between the 60s or 70s and nowadays is that they don´t even try to hide it anymore, it´s common in the mainstream music and movie industry (Hollywood) to show which entity they worship with their satanic tatoos, lyrics, masonary handshakes, hidden Hand signs, all-seeing eye or hidden Eye gestueres, Pyramid triangle handsigns, 666 and devils horns handsigns.
Being WRONG from the get go causes you to WRONG thr entire video, i highly suggest people skip this, its just another jealous Christian lashing for chosing the wrong religion, peace!
Hey their chief, i can see you did alot research on this, but you are astonishingly stupid and ignorant from the get go for even daring to suggest bowie was referencing the devil, he was an occultist and if you did just a little tiny of research you would have realized he referring to the Kundalini, which was a symbol for a serpent that lies coiled at the base of our spine, when triggered it rises up through the spine opening each chakra as it goes finally opening the third eye, in Christianity its the halo around the head, the serpent was a symbol of enlightened long before christians did an l.ron hubbard to pretty all religions out there.
We are so happy to know kids are inspired by this video. Happy drumming... :)
Praise Jesus the god of heaven ❤
It sounds like "The process" by Kafka
I see this as an attempt to answer the question "Who Am I?" more than "Why do we die?." I see this as an exploration of the self and the metamorphasis in your understanding that occurs on death. In near-death experiences "something happened on the day he died, spirit rose a meter then stepped aside", some people witness the phenomenon of everything that you thought you were becoming no more real than a dream and who you are becoming abundantly clear. Who you really are cannot be seen (Like a black star), but is always there, you are the perceiver. "At the center of it all, your eyes." He repeats "I am not a" ((insert human trait)) "I'm the great I AM". Then returning to his person's life "Somebody else took his place and bravely cried, 'I'm a black star" acknowledging the human named Bowie declaring he is the great "I Am" is not him, because he is a great, black star, not this human. Don't ask me why I think this. "I can't answer why, just go with me"
Perhaps the only way to transcend is to sacrifice the ego-the false self. Spirit over matter.
There's so many different interpretations of this record, and obviously this is just another one however but by all accounts Bowie did get involved in the occult and there's certainly some mysterious aspects to this record, and no one would seriously disagree that Bowie was a great artist, maybe for some death is sign of our imperfections, but for me it's natural and that serpent which actually most likely represents the mother Earth has it's own natural rhythms and on this planet there would not be life without death
Maybe he was trying to understand something about him and how he was going to continus or dissapear...another bowie's story...a great artist
Oh that makes sense with all the crucifixion symbolism.
Anyone who claims there is a god or afterlife is just simply a liar, delusional, or both.
I always interpreted it as a legacy left for future generations to discover and enjoy. Many of Bowie's fans aren't even born yet! No Plan really hits that home. Bowie is effectively 'immortal' with pieces of the universe projecting his image to would be fans for decades if not centuries.
the black star is guilt??? unsure how you came to tjat
Yes it is.
I read somewhere at the time of his death that blackstar was a name given to a type of cancer. I also think the song is a distant recalling of his dalliance with Hermoine Farthingale who left him and went to Norway to make a film. His songs can be described at best as a smoke and mirrors thing, so much is there and it depends on your personal preference of circumstance
Fuck off you dick. We all know what "BlackStar" was about....
I respectfully disagree.
Someone finally said it, first time I saw it I said, "That's the girl with the mousey hair"
In occultism, a black star is the other energy, representing mystery and the unknown energy of magic ( he was obsessed with occultism his whole life)
Black Star taken by Jesus
If I may suggest, if you want a deeper interpretation of this song, you should read the poem The Hollow Men by T S Eliot. I think that a lot of imagery from that poem was used by Bowie in his art. It also gives context to the three scarecrows in the field. Yes, they probably symbolise the crucifixion but they symbolise much more.
Excellent! Thanks for your insight.
I wonder if David Biwie told this dude this id how he made song for. And whts david bowie connected to kanye west?
And iy even gives away all the major events that happen in the movie, just like actual modern trailers.
Says you...
The Great I AM is what God called himself.
Interesting. Jesus took everyone's black star when He was crucified.
This certainly tugs on the heart strings showing the initial futility and desperation of George Bailey's situation, showing him what could have been in a world without him, this is certainly a masterpiece, the ordinary everyman just trying to make a difference in the world and all the lives he had affected during the course of his life, the movie's ending always brings a tear to my eye 😢 Great Work
no bro he was singing about me, how, i was going to marry a arab woman with diamonds and at the same time i was uploading ISIS videos for 5 years straight, he was on my facebook the whole time, i didn't get married and the whole time i was in bed with a work injury
Pls correct me if I'm wrong but, no one noticed that Elvis and Bowie have the same birthdays (January 8)? That is what made this song a little more spooky (and cool) for me. Now I'm listening to Elvis' version daily!
Why do only women kneel and smile? *she says as she kneels and smiles….
david bowie tries to also tell us that religion is a lie and way of making your life easier and way of feeling less guilt
Not bad interpretation .But the truth is David played the opt out card just like Elvis Prince and maybe George Harrison and a few others , Jo Cox a UK MP was a female rights activist and seemingly was going through hell with her husband serial sex abuser Brendon Cox who assaulted women even in the USA ?, But Brendon was protected by George Bush/Tony Blair amongst others ,Bowie decided his time was up and wanted a bit of "me time" He contacted the appropriate authorities and that was that ! Who knows where he is ? but there might be a little gated town or village somewhere in the States or maybe New Zealand ? And with the royalties from his greatest hits and back catalogue he is financially secure and when he does or already have died it will be under a anonymous identity And word on street is Jo Cox is alive and well and saved the British government a huge embarrassment by opting OUT ! The scare crow in video is comparing bowie to his dead "Straw Man "birth certificate that is given back to government when you die .
Wow this was deep. Thank you for this.
wow amazing!
This is a better trailer than the original. Actually did a better job explaining what the movie is about.
Come on you just whooshed the Jesus crucifix reference
Blackstar is literally a cancer liasion. this is not over thinking it, its very obvious what this album is about, he didnt tell anybody but his family he had cancer. he references death a lot i the album, the title track is a term for cancer.
video I really needed to see. wish it went longer.
The song Blackstar is not about death but about dying which is our masterpiece of life for all of us.
MAYBE HE'S SAYING THE WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN... MEANING WE'RE STUCK HERE UNTIL WE LEARN HOW TO ACCESS OUR HIGHER CONSIOUSNESS. EARTH IS HELL AND WE NEED TO ACCESS OUR HIGHER CONSIOUSNESS TO BE ABLE TO MOVE TO THE LIGHT.
I interpreted blackstar as a song about what’s next for music. The blackstar is the next generation of musicians that rise up after the passing of the stars of the 60s and 70s have died.
EVERY MAN HAS A BLACK STAR = EVER MAN HAS A BLACK STAR (SOUL)
You wanted to read that through a Christian framework so you did
Although heavily layered, I still think this was Bowie dealing with his very eminent mortality. We saw the young naive astronaut begin his lifelong trip by leaving Ormen in Space Oddity. We then saw the jaded drug addicted Major Tom in Ashes to Ashes. Then we see Major Tom dying on what may or may not be Ormen. OR, the unicode for Black Star is 2605. Mick Ronson's birthday. Ormen is also a town in Norway, where he "lost" Hermoine Farthingale. I'm sure there's a lot more symbolism of lost lives. As usual, with Bowie, there are 1000 ways to interpret this, and every single one could be right, or none.
Tha blackstar is a planet. The beings are gathering in ritual. There are scarifices and the one being in the middle of the circle is the one whose spirit will leave the body so david bowie's spirit can take over. It's a way to live longer. I know, it's wierd, but that's what it looks like to me.
