I immediately marveled at the synchronicity, such a perfect metaphor for the passing of someone who seemed more ET than human. I read HP pretty regularly so I was surprised to find out it was posted a few days earlier; how could I have missed it? Also, the time stamp on it was 4:44 which is my major synchronicity number. <br /><br />Congrats on the book, I loved it.

AS THE WORLD FALLS DOWN could be a track from any other Bowie album, the others, not so much. <br /><br />Thanks for the kind words. You'll also get a kick out of this—someone just posted the intro that Bowie did for the charming animated film THE SNOWMAN. All you have to do is watch the first 40 seconds to see its relevance...<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=45&v=rXEoqb0_mrgJoshuaCutchinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11971635879122192504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7455216065351371692.post-11275482321456852262016-01-13T06:30:59.671-08:002016-01-13T06:30:59.671-08:00Joshua -- Wow, you have the soundtrack to *Labyrin...Joshua -- Wow, you have the soundtrack to *Labyrinth* ?!?!? I lived thru the 80's and saw it first hand. Once was enough! <br /><br />I gotta say the music in Labyrinth was, well, the reason I cringe at some 80's music.<br /><br />But good post, I added a link it to the text above. Huge thanks. I noted the goblin offering fruit to JC in the movie. I thought of you immediately. This was my first viewing of Labyrinth.<br /><br />I did notice the sheep dog was named "Merlin" and it barked at the owl. For me, a reference to TH Whites *Sword in the Stone"<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Mike CMike Clelland!https://www.blogger.com/profile/11369575898695154728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7455216065351371692.post-65396022576224639422016-01-13T06:07:30.606-08:002016-01-13T06:07:30.606-08:00Great write up Mike!

I to...Great write up Mike! Always loved this movie.<br />I too noticed the outlying weirdness of LABYRINTH—oddly enough, it has the most thematically accurate portrayals of the fae folk in cinema (there's even a food connection that resonates with my work). <br />I wrote a blog post that might make for some good supplemental reading to your post here (my apologies if this seems too self-serving):<br /><br />http://bit.ly/1BMFTf9<br /><br />Something NOT in the article that I noticed yesterday when listening to the soundtrack again—Bowie's title track is UNDERGROUND (where the fae typically reside), and features the lyrics "It's only forever... not long at all," which sounds an awful lot like the missing time in faerie land.JoshuaCutchinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11971635879122192504noreply@blogger.com
