24. Slip Away (w/ Polyphonic Spree)

Polyphonic Spree ist ein Gospelchor,der in der letzten Zeit öfter den song mit ihm bringt.....der Chor ist zu sehen im Virtual Ticket Bereich auf bowie.com

He looked like a kid who had lifted up the garage door and decided to play something for the neighborhood. He made no apologies…during the encore at the end of “Slip Away” he sat on his knees front and center playing the Stylophone as Polyphonic Spree danced on stage in different colored robes. After the song was over he said “We’ve done this a few times…I don’t know if we’ll do it again.”

During “Loneliest Guy” he conjured up images of suicide looking at his wrists in amazement, and walking slowly back. When the song was over, he came up to the mike stand looking at his wrists saying “That’s a lot of blood. You see, what I do is interpretive body movement. Every little guesture, every move…one movement of the wrist and I change the whole story. One movement of the wrist and it’s not a song about a suicidal man…it’s a man who’s remembering his mother’s first divorce.” After “Under Pressure” he guestured towards Gail Ann Dorsey at least four times to cue our applause, with a very ballet bow, extending the sweeping hand out and bending his knees while he bowed.
