Modern Love
Modern Love It's not really work It's just the power to charm I'm still standing in the wind But I never wave bye bye But I try, I try Never gonna fall for Some lyrics from Modern Love, by David Bowie, who yesterday joined the great band in the sky… Could you just imagine the concert going on in the afterlife, if everyone was in the same place, and could do their thing? Modern Love is one of my favorite Bowie songs, not because of the music or lyrics, but because of the memories it evokes. This being a sex dating site and all, my tribute to Bowie, has to be sexual. The song reminds me of a particular young lady from University that I would of loved to have known intimately. Never got the chance… she got really tight with another gentleman I knew, so you move on. My memory is somewhat vague about what she looked like… I do recall she was on the taller side; she hung out with a redhead I had gone to high school with, who was about 5’10” or 11”, and I don’t remember the girl I went to high school with towering over her. She had dark hair (Dorothy Hamill style cut), an athletic build, with probably large C or small D cup breasts… (that’s what I was into in my early 20s). You are probably thinking… “I thought your memory of her was vague”. I say it’s vague, because I can’t remember her face. I have a great memory for faces, I never forget someone’s face. But I’m completely blank right now on what she looked like; I’m sure she was attractive. Anyway, she loved the song, Modern Love. Whenever it came on, Terri, that was her name, just had to dance… often I was her partner. There was something so sensual about the way she dance to this song… she was an ok dancer to other songs (I lived in dance clubs back then, so everything is relative), but to this song she had a certain kind of magic, that’s hard to describe. Kind of how Bowie himself danced, but just way more sexual, sensual, and just fun… I just got a kick out of watching or dancing with her when this song was played. Every time I hear the song, I’m immediately transported back in time. Mr. Bowie… vaya con Dios brother. Thank you for the great music, the fashion forward sense, for having a certain cool elegance, but most of all, thanks for Modern Love, and the way you made Terri dance. And Terri, to you… (Modern love) walks beside me (Modern love) walks on by (Modern love) gets me to the church on time Find pleasure in giving pleasure |

Didn't Bowie once say that "Heroes" was inspired by watching a couple have sex on a rooftop in Germany? Stop in, read, and offer comments at my "swinging as seen in the media" blog, "Confessions of a Lifestyle Man" humorlife, which is also the home of the monthly virtual symposium.

Modern Love reminds me of an ex from back then. A very sad loss along with Natalie Cole and all the others who leave their music, words, voices and other talents behind. Rock n Roll Heaven would sure on hell of a concert. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

What a lovely story about why you love his song. He will be sorely missed. I was a huge fan and his music has been with me for most of my adult life. He was so many things, a genius, a legend, an innovator but most of all he was always just so incredibly cool. R.I.P. ~~Anais Nin~~

Nothing will make you forget a woman has a face like a pair of full round breasts, khu. I was married to a Teri, with one "r". She wasn't tall enough for two. Bowie was one of those early publicly androgynous guys who helped change the way we thought about androgynous guys. Frankly, I think that's a pretty big contribution right there. He simply- or, I guess, not so simply- was himself. That was anything but simple. I think I liked "Space Oddity" best of all. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

A great song, from a great artist who will truly be missed.. He was one of the first "crossover" artists. I remember him appearing on Soul Train in 1975 to perform "Fame". [image] Find pleasure in giving pleasure

Lucky you! He didn't tour a lot. The last time I saw him was in 1990 at the Rogers Centre (where the Toronto Blue Jays play), which just has horrible acoustics. I'm disappointed that was the last time I got to see him perform live. Find pleasure in giving pleasure
