Very insightful analysis of a very talented complex man.
I really liked much of his music, especially his 1983 Serious Moonlight tour sons, ie: China girl, Modern Love, Let’s Dance.
He admitted being a tormented soul during his young bisexual drugged phase in the 1970’s.
He admitted admiring Hitler / Nazism, and that he believed Rock n Roll was inspired by satan.
He seemed to settle down from his late thirties and on.
This Rolling Stones article provides further details of how troubled and insane he felt in the 1970’s.

My pastor and grandparents were right about R&R along with many other things...
Cocaine is a helluva drug. And Bowie was probably the biggest Coke head in the 70s. But he seemed to settle down after that.
