Tonight’s mystery artist in the quest to find himself says that he tried just about everything . Think you know who our wild man might be??

This confession was found in the Telegraph in a long article published after the death of David Bowie.  It covers everything from his imagination to his sexuality about which the article quotes Bowie as saying of his temporary bisexuality:

‘I was virtually trying anything. I really had a hunger to experience everything that life had to offer, from the opium den to whatever. And I think I have done just about everything that it’s possible to do – except really dangerous things, like being an explorer. But anything that Western culture has to offer – I’ve put myself through most of it.’

The conclusion that he eventually came to, he says, was that he is ‘not a particularly hedonistic person – I tried my best. I was up there with the best of them. I pushed myself into areas just for experiment and bravado, to see what would happen. But, in the final analysis, it’s not really me.’

What he now recognizes, he says, is that the peregrinations through drugs, hedonism, experience – the road of excess – were all part of ‘trying to recognize what the spiritual life is within myself, and how to identify it’. He pauses, mindful that he is broaching an area that some people would regard as ‘awfully hippie trippy’.

And here he is in all his hippie trippy glory with Queen for tonight's featured song:
