Of course, this is part of the reason why Bowie has been so successful and explains why he still has such a vast fan base eagerly awaiting his every move. Bowie has always walked the tight-rope of fame and exposure very well - we always want more. This is the reason why an autobiography would be so utterly delicious; it would allow us that insight into the mind of the genius that we have never be granted. What goes on behind those mismatched eyes? What was it like being the rockstar from out of space? What has life been like for the past ten years since slipping off the radar to become a respectable father to his young daughter?
