It's a new discovery, yes :-) I've been in a Bowie mood ever since queenbitchfest, which was an Adam Lambert ficathon where people wrote fics inspired by Bowie, and I am in debt to winterlive for introducing me to Diamond Dogs via her incredible, epic post-apocalypse fic, Future Legend. I hadn't known the song before reading the fic, and looked up the lyrics later and was basically amazed by how well the lyrics fit, both in spirit and literally.
I know you're not in the fandom so I don't know if you'll read the (whole 50K word) fic, but she talks a bit more about the album and its relation to the fic in this comment, and just. I could read an entire DVD commentary about this fic. And I have since come to love the album.
Bowie is an amazing talent. He pretty much invented Glam Rock and has always been very theatrical. "Rebel Rebel" is perhaps my fav Bowie song of all time, but you should also check out "Space Oddity" which many (including me) consider his masterpiece.
He's also a fine actor and if you've never seen it, you should watch "The Man Who Fell to Earth".
Oh my god did you make these?! Also why is ADI WISHING ME A HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN THE LAST ONE? AHAHAHA Oh god many hours later I realize It's actually Eddie as in short for Edward. LOOK I FAIL AT ISRAELI NAMES YOU KNOW THIS.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA I could have done without the Bella one (Edit: ALSO JUST REALIZED WHY SHE'S ON THE FOREVER YOUNG ONE. Brain clearly not functional today.) but this was TRULY AMAZING AHAHAHAHA thank you so much bb! *HUGS* :D
Hahaha, I must give credit where it is due and admit that my only contribution is the very high tech pink spray paint on Eddie's last pic, and the rest of the credit goes to twilightguide.com. But it should say something that when googling "birthday" for something entirely unrelated I stumbled across these masterpieces and immediately thought of you <3
LOL, the "forever young" killed me. Is this really what we're wishing kids these days? I guess so...
