David Bowie - Letter to Hermione - 1969 descargar videos gratis
Letter to Hermione is a song from David Bowie's 1969 album Space Oddity. It contains a mix of folk, balladry, and prog rock. Held to be "the first Bowie album proper", and his first deemed worthy by record companies of regular reissue, Space Oddity featured a notable list of collaborators, including session players Herbie Flowers, Tim Renwick, Terry Cox, and Rick Wakeman, as well as cellist Paul Buckmaster, multi-instrumentalist and producer Tony Visconti, and bassist John Lodge.
"Letter to Hermione" is a song written by David Bowie in 1969 for the album Space Oddity. This ballad is a love letter to Hermione Farthingale, who Bowie met through Lindsay Kemp. She became Bowie's girlfriend and they lived together for a short while in London in 1968. In early 1969 she left Bowie for Stephen Reinhardt, an American musician and dancer she met on the film Song of Norway.
An early name for the song was "Im Not Quite". Bowie recorded a demo version of the song with this name together with John Hutchinson in February 1969.
Comedian Ricky Gervais has repeatedly expressed his love for this song, going so far as to call it his favourite David Bowie song, indeed, possibly his favourite ever song. He chose it as one of his Desert Island Discs.

*Perla cultivada (1/3)*De esas canciones que por ser hechas sólo con la guitarra acústica (o piano, según el caso) pierden la edad, podrían haber sido hechas en cualquier momento.*Letter to Hermione.*The hand that wrote this letterSweeps the pillow clean.So rest your head and read a treasured dream.I care for no one else but you.I tear my soul to cease the pain.I think maybe you feel the same,What can we do?I'm not quite sure what we're supposed to do.So I've been writing just for you.They say your life is going very well.They say you sparkle like a different girl.But something tells me that you hideWhen all the world is warm and tired.You cry a little in the dark,Well so do I.I'm not quite sure what you're supposed to say,But I can see it's not okay.He makes you laughHe brings you out in style.He treats you wellAnd makes you up real fine.And when he's strong,He's strong for you.And when you kissIt's something new.But did you ever call my nameJust by mistake?I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do.So I'll just write some love to you.12 years ago

@PrincessAmy777 Thanks for the recognition, its only from the support of random YouTubers like you that I find the strength to get up every morning and continue living. I have an artist friend who loves Bowie, especially the Major Tom persona, and this is one of his many Bowie pieces. I can e-mail you some of his work if you're interested.13 years ago
