    +Marisol Cordeiro It's so so good, right? (But it doesn't replace my NEED for a Glen Hansard album of David Bowie songs!)

    Please don't. At least your own third-rate shite music we can avoid. Glen Hansard....the living proof that one song does indeed not make an album.

    Hey, Doc-what kind of art do you make and share with the world? Or do you just focus mainly on spewing hate on the Internet?

    Christopher is a coward? Mate, you're the keyboard warrior. Why do you feel the need to be so derogatory to someone you've never met, purely because your musical tastes differ? You sound like a fucking moron.

    I discovered this on April 11th, 2018, when I was freshly dumped and coming down from a high. I cried. I listened to this on loop on April 21st, 2018, the day after my ex died. I cried then too. Now I can properly cry and enjoy this wonderful tune. Thank you.

    I was watching the film Once. And for the life of me I couldn't figured out why your voice made me soo sad and I couldn't figure where I had heard you from because I had never heard your music at all and it wasn't until I watched the the memorial for David outside of his apartment and then it hit me - it was you singing, in the cold, while mourning David Bowie. Now that I know, and where I'm at, I think it's just amazing how it clicked like that. and I just thought that I should tell you that. and your music, makes my heart ache because your voice is beautiful. I hope you see this post one day.

    half of visualizations must be mine, and I have enjoyed all of them. Stunning guitar song performance.Every hit has it's 100% perfect intensity. And the voice, what can I say? This man has no limits, I have seen him singing to all theatre without mic. Whereas, KZread hits is full of robotic voices. This is our world, at least we have Glen. I wait you in BCN next week.

    If there was any flaw in Bowie’s version it was in the New Romantic era synth heavy instrumentation which contrasted with the edgy lyrics of a man struggling with addiction. Here in this bare arrangement that rawness comes through. Thank you.
