Interesting commentary on David Bowie’s “Warszawa,” which he did with Brian Eno in the 1970s. I remember listening to this song, but don’t think I ever connected it to Warsaw or communism or Poland. RIP David Bowie. “Pushing Ahead of the Dame” is a blog about David Bowie’s music written by Chris O’Leary.
