Not conforming to the conventions of the music industry is typical David Bowie, who in his career sold more than 130 million albums worldwide, not to mention his pioneering deeds and achievements in the fields of art, fashion, style and social criticism. His extraordinary career was always marked by sold-out (stadium) tours and ticket sales records all over the world. He is considered one of the most influential artists of the past five decades. In recent years it has been quiet around him - his name, however, remained the object of endless speculation, rumors and wishful thinking. However, no one would have dared to hope for the release of a new album. In the end, however, David Bowie is an artist who writes and performs when he wants to. When he has something to say and not when he has something to sell.
