StarBars of KarmaMan Who Never Sold The Universe

Realise I aldready have made
a relevant list of Bowie-pieces.
Created it exactly four years ago on another blog,
wrote like this:

""David Stardust" I've never fully grasped.
Almost half of his universe I completely love
with heart, brain, body,
while the rest seems boringly standing still,
no matter how many times I listen.
So it's probably me
who got to change before...

Here I view my very favourite Bowie-works
through the Tarot Archetypes..."


And now I really transform that list
into which 13 x 3 = 39 pieces I've followed most deeply
or just how often I've listened to them
which has changed now...

Not connect to the big tarot cards this time
but instead to bars 'n' night clubs
in city of Gothenburg
which I've discovered the last four years,
recalling which atmospheres
in my feeling fits
to which lyrics but in the main the music
(so in some way
this also becomes a list
of how well I've appreciated those clubs
or rather their interiors)
