David Bowie’s death shocked me. It still shocks me. Losing Bowie & Prince within 3 months is still something I can’t accept. I might never. Bowie inspired me in ways no other person has ever done. Christopher Nolan begged Bowie to star in The Prestige. I’m so glad he did.

Christopher Nolan reveals the first time an actor said no to him was David Bowie, and he had to personally beg him to change his mind. Jimmy Fallon: Have you ever gotten a “no”? Christopher Nolan: Have I ever gotten a “no”? Yeah, I have. Jimmy Fallon: Besides me when I said I didn’t want to do Batman. Christopher Nolan: The only “no” I’ll admit to is David Bowie for The Prestige. He was my great idol, and I thought he’d be perfect to play Nikola Tesla. Christopher Nolan: We sent him the script and everything, and he said no. It was the first time I ever went back and said, “Can I just go and meet him? Can I try and convince him in the room?” Christopher Nolan: They agreed, so I quickly wrote him a better speech for his first appearance, showed up with a new script, and basically begged. I managed to turn that “no” into a “yes.” Jimmy Fallon: Yes! But you did get a “no” from the coolest kid in school.

Christopher Nolan’s next film releases in 216 days. Reminder that one of Nolan’s best casting decisions was assigning David Bowie to play Nikola Tesla. It resulted in a few unforgettable moments in The Prestige. I’m excited to see some casting surprises in The Odyssey pop up.

Historic Rock Moment: Bowie, Lennox & Queen – A Rehearsal to Remember. In 1992, the world witnessed a legendary tribute concert to honor the one and only Freddie Mercury. During rehearsals for the iconic "Under Pressure," rock god David Bowie and Annie Lennox created pure magic. With Queen playing and George Michael watching and singing along, this was a rare behind-the-scenes moment where rock royalty converged. Originally released in 1981, "Under Pressure" is a collaboration between Queen and David Bowie that has since become one of the most defining anthems of Rock History. With its unforgettable bassline and powerful message about the pressures of life and love, it remains a timeless classic. "Under Pressure" continues to inspire generations, reminding us that even in life’s hardest moments, we’re never alone. Its legacy remains as powerful today as it was when Freddie first sang it.

BOWIE EXITS THE 70s IN THE UK WITH KENNY EVERETT “Can you hear me, Major Tom?” 45 years ago today, David Bowie’s re-recording of Space Oddity was broadcast on the Will Kenny Everett Make It To 1980? Show. You'll be familiar with this broadcast (Shot 18 September 1979 | Broadcast 31 December 1979), but this From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free edit bears repeating. The original footage was directed for the show by Bowie’s video director of the time, David Mallet, the action takes place in a high-ceilinged padded cell and an exploding kitchen with an unflappable nurse. Speaking to Angus MacKinnon in the NME in 1980, Bowie said: “That came about because (David) Mallet wanted me to do something for his show and he wanted Space Oddity. I agreed as long as I could do it again without all its trappings and do it strictly with three instruments. Having played it with just an acoustic guitar onstage early on, I was always surprised as how powerful it was just as a song, without all the strings and synthesizers. In fact the video side of it was secondary; I really wanted to do it as a three-piece song.” Both scenes were recreated for the May 1980 filming of Ashes To Ashes, the continuity experts among you will notice the very obvious differences. So, ten years after it was originally a hit, Major Tom also had the last word of the 70s for Bowie. Another 45 years on and the impact of this version is still as powerful. Read Nacho's notes with more detail regarding the recording of both the sound and vision, along with the complete video, here: Audio Source: David Bowie | Space Oddity | Recorded Good Earth Studios | Soho, London | September 1979 | Released as B side of Alabama Song | 15 February 1980 Vocals & 12-string guitar | David Bowie Bass | Zaine Griff Piano | Hans Zimmer Drums | Andy Duncan Producer | Tony Visconti FOOTNOTE: In the US Bowie appeared on Dick Clark's Salute to the Seventies TV broadcast. Bowie mimed to an edit of the 1969 Space Oddity recording. Stills from this show were utilised for the sleeve of the aforementioned Alabama Song 45. Sadly, a decent quality version of this broadcast has yet to surface. You can find it on YouTube, but hopefully Nacho will get his hands on a higher quality version to work his magic on. #SpaceOddity55 #SpaceOddityKennyEverett #NachoBowie #NachosVideos

DAVID BOWIE ‘HEROES’ - THE POWERFUL & EVOCATIVE FINAL SONG IN THE SERIES FINALE OF NETFLIX’S STRANGER THINGS ‘HEROES’ IS AVAILABLE TO STREAM NOW ON PARLOPHONE: WATCH THE HD REMASTERED 'HEROES' VIDEO: New Year’s Day saw the broadcast on Netflix of the final episode of the phenomenally successful and critically lauded stranger things . Ten years in the making, the final song of the entire series is ‘Heroes’ by David Bowie, one of music’s boldest innovators and most enduring visionaries. After the final scene of Series 5 Episode 8 plays, the show doesn’t jump to its typical credits sequence. Instead, it rolls into a nostalgic animated end-credits segment and lets Bowie’s “Heroes” play all the way through. The decision to end the show with the iconic track was suggested by actor Joe Keery, who plays Steve Harrington on the show and records music under the name Djo. Speaking to Netflix Tudum, the show’s co-creator Ross Duffer says, “Once Joe said that, we immediately knew that was the right song to end the show on because it is, in some ways, an anthem for Stranger Things. To use the original Bowie version just felt right and fitting for the conclusion.” Initially released in September 1977, ‘Heroes’ is the title track of the second instalment of Bowie’s hugely influential ‘Berlin Trilogy’ of albums produced by Bowie and Tony Visconti and featuring Brian Eno. Recorded at Hansa Studios in West Berlin, which was situated only 150 metres away from the Berlin Wall and co-written with Eno, the song references the East German soldiers that could be seen from the studio’s control room and a love affair between a couple kissing in the shadow of the Wall. The song, which has become an iconic anthem, was recorded by Bowie in English, German and French and has been covered by artists such as Oasis, Prince, Coldplay, Yungblud, Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, Smashing Pumpkins, Depeche Mode, Blondie, Neil Finn, Peter Gabriel, King Crimson, Bon Jovi, Motorhead, Miley Cyrus, Aurora, Moby, David Byrne & St Vincent and The Wallflowers, who took it into the US top 10. A decade after the 1977 release of ‘Heroes’, Bowie brought his Glass Spider Tour to Berlin during the Summer of 1987. He performed as part of a series of shows at the Reichstag, a poignant symbol of the divided city just metres away from the Wall. The concert was held near the border, where many East Berliners crowded along to listen to music forbidden by the Soviet government, allowing the two halves of the city to hear the same show, with ‘Heroes’ as the emotional highlight for both sides. Bowie later remarked, “We kind of heard that a few of the East Berliners might actually get the chance to hear the thing, but we didn’t realise in what numbers they would. And there were thousands on the other side that had come close to the wall. So it was like a double concert where the wall was the division. And we would hear them cheering and singing along from the other side. God, even now I get choked up. It was breaking my heart. I’d never done anything like that in my life, and I guess I never will again.” During the shows, the East German authorities cracked down on the fans, attacking them with water cannons and arresting hundreds. The shows helped change the mood around the Wall, which had stood for over a quarter of a century, and was now seen with renewed anger. Within two years, the Wall came down, and it has long been believed that the Concerts For Berlin were a turning point in the East. When Bowie died in 2016, the German Foreign Office confirmed as much by posting a live version of ‘Heroes’ on social media and declaring, ‘Good-bye David Bowie. You are now among #Heroes. Thank you for helping bring down the #wall’ #StrangerThings #BowieHeroes

Some of you might remember David Martinsson. He posted a raw, viral YouTube video titled “Being Ugly: My Experience” back in 2018. I watched it back then and always wondered how his life turned out. Turns out the story got a beautiful ending. A woman named Juli from Argentina saw the video and commented that she actually thought he was kinda cute. David pinned her comment. They started talking long distance. She flew from Argentina to Sweden to meet him in person. They fell in love, got married, and Juli moved permanently to Sweden to be with him. Today they’re raising their baby daughter Stella there. David now says the only opinion that matters to him is his wife’s.

Yall this is WILD. “Tip that we received is that the call did, in fact, take place. Not only that, but it lasted anywhere from three to five minutes. So apparently, someone phones 911 and then did not engage with the 911 operator. The phone sounds as though it’s dropped. It’s running for approximately five minutes without the caller recognizing that it was still on. So almost like a 911 call turned butt dial. We’ll have to get more details of how that could have occurred. But in the midst, what was heard on this call and what was captured rather on this call is, quote, ‘We got him, and we are taking him to the hospital.’ Okay. Maybe that was supposed to be to the operator, a strange thing to say. ‘Now what’s your emergency?’ ‘We got him, and we’re taking him to the hospital.’ Maybe it was supposed to be said, uh, almost. Sounds to me almost like a status update, followed by chaos, followed by a voice saying, ‘Get out of the way,’ followed by what sounds like high rates of speed- the car is moving quickly. But here’s where it gets super interesting. Also, allegedly- not for long- the statement, ‘Get that off of him. Get that off of him,’ is captured on this alleged 911 call. Now, ‘Get what off of him?’ is the first thing I think. Get what off of him? Couple of options. Okay. Charlie didn’t have much on him.” It’s almost like someone called 911 just to make it look like 911 was called- either way… this is absolutely insane if true— and I’d bet on Candace ever time.

Peter Jackson on the greatness of Sir Christopher Lee: "Christopher spoke seven languages; he was in every sense, a man of the world; well versed in art, politics, literature, history and science. He was scholar, a singer, an extraordinary raconteur and of course, a marvelous actor. One of my favourite things to do whenever I came to London would be to visit with Christopher and Gitte where he would regale me for hours with stories about his extraordinary life. I loved to listen to them and he loved to tell them - they were made all the more compelling because they were true - stories from his time with the SAS, through the Second World War, to the Hammer Horror years and later, his work with Tim Burton - of which he was enormously proud. I was lucky enough to work with Chris on five films all told and it never ceased to be a thrill to see him on set. I remember him saying on my 40th Birthday (he was 80 at the time), “You’re half the man I am”. Being half the man Christopher Lee is, is more than I could ever hope for. He was a true gentleman, in an era that no longer values gentleman. I grew up loving Christopher Lee movies. For most of my life I was enthralled by the great iconic roles he not only created - but continued to own decades later. But somewhere along the way Christopher Lee suddenly, and magically, dissolved away and he became my friend, Chris. And I loved Chris even more. There will never be another Christopher Lee. He has a unique place in the history of cinema and in the hearts of millions of fans around the world."

Peter Jackson on the greatness of Sir Christopher Lee: "Christopher spoke seven languages; he was in every sense, a man of the world; well versed in art, politics, literature, history and science. He was scholar, a singer, an extraordinary raconteur and of course, a marvelous actor. One of my favourite things to do whenever I came to London would be to visit with Christopher and Gitte where he would regale me for hours with stories about his extraordinary life. I loved to listen to them and he loved to tell them - they were made all the more compelling because they were true - stories from his time with the SAS, through the Second World War, to the Hammer Horror years and later, his work with Tim Burton - of which he was enormously proud. I was lucky enough to work with Chris on five films all told and it never ceased to be a thrill to see him on set. I remember him saying on my 40th Birthday (he was 80 at the time), “You’re half the man I am”. Being half the man Christopher Lee is, is more than I could ever hope for. He was a true gentleman, in an era that no longer values gentleman. I grew up loving Christopher Lee movies. For most of my life I was enthralled by the great iconic roles he not only created - but continued to own decades later. But somewhere along the way Christopher Lee suddenly, and magically, dissolved away and he became my friend, Chris. And I loved Chris even more. There will never be another Christopher Lee. He has a unique place in the history of cinema and in the hearts of millions of fans around the world."

We had to make a terrifying choice with Tank last year. ❤️‍🩹 He had been in pure agony with a huge, life-threatening growth. It was so severe his body was just shutting down, he was losing weight rapidly and could barely go to the toilet. To make matters worse, his bloodwork meant an operation was a huge risk. But our vet team knew it was his only real chance. It took a whole team of vets four grueling hours to safely clear him out and remove the growth. The surgery was a success, but the recovery was touch-and-go. Well, just look at him now! Almost a year on, we visit him regularly and he is fully healed, gorgeously chunky, and full of life. You fought so hard for this, sweet boy. Good boy, Tank!
