April 22 - I Can't Give Everything Away

There really isn't much to say about today's song. It is the last song on the last album David Bowie recorded - and he recorded it knowing full well he was dying. He released a lot of other great closers as well, especially Rock'n'Roll Suicide from Ziggy Stardust, Fame from Young Americans, Wild Is The Wind from Station To Station, Subterraneans from Low, Bring Me the Disco King from Reality, and I personally also like Strangers When We Meet from Outside. It has been such a great career - but he wrote the perfect ending to it with Blackstar - and I Can't Give Everything Away is such a great and worthy ending to a stellar career.
