The post about the Polar Prize got lost
and the Peter Gabriel posts make less sense.
But there is no other try right now, this is what I found though.

I am sorry but there is some stupid commercial in the beginning.

Opening Track for the ceremony is: Solsbury Hill

David Bowie - Ashes to ashes (live by request)


Do you remember a guy that's been in such an early song,
I heard a rumor from ground control
oh no don't say it's true, They got a message from the action man
"I'm happy hope you're happy too I've loved all I've needed love", sor did details following

The shrieking of nothing is killing us, visions of jap girls in synthesis and i
aint got no money and I aint got no hair and I'm hoping to kick but this planet
is glowing. Ashes to ashes funk to funky you, we know major Toms a junky strung out on heveans
high leading an all time low

Time and again I tell myself I'll stay clean tonight but these little green
wheels are following me oh no not again - I'm stuck with no valuable friends I'm
happy hope you're you happy too one flash of light but no smoking in this building

I've never done good things
I've never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue

Want an axe to break the ice I gonna calm down right now

Ashes to ashes funk to funky you, we know major Tom's a junky s
trung out on heavens high leading an all time low

My mama said to get things done you better not mess with major Tom
and so on ...

Yes, heh - that made a quite funny headline! 

Such a delicate version it is. And now I know that the lovelely Bass player that I have seen in so many of Bowies late live videos is Gail Ann Dorsey, Yess!

Lyrics

I'm closer to the Golden Dawn
Immersed in Crowley's uniform
Of imagery
I'm living in a silent film
Portraying Himmler's sacred realm
Of dream reality
I'm frightened by the total goal
Drawing to the ragged hole
And I ain't got the power, anymore
No I ain't got the power anymore

I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes
Living proof of Churchill's lies
I'm destiny
I'm torn between the light and dark
Where others see their targets
Divine symmetry
Should I kiss the viper's fang
Or herald loud the death of Man
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought
And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah

I'm not a prophet or a stone age man
Just a mortal with the potential of a superman
I'm living on
I'm tethered to the logic of Homo Sapien
Can't take my eyes from the great salvation
Of bullshit faith
If I don't explain what you ought to know
You can tell me all about it
On the next Bardo
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought
And I ain't got the power anymore

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
Knowledge comes with death's release

Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah

Yes that is one of my early favorites too!

"The Bewlay Brothers" is a song written by David Bowie in 1971 for the album Hunky Dory. The last track to be written and recorded for Hunky Dory, this ballad has been described as "probably Bowie's densest and most impenetrable song

Bowie named his publishing company in the late 1970s Bewlay Bros. Music and used the name as a pseudonym for himself, Iggy Pop and Colin Thurston as producers of Pop's 1977 album Lust for Life.

The song was performed live for the first time on BBC Radio 2 in 2002.

Pack a pack horse and rest up here on
Black Country Rock
You never know, you might find it here on
Black Country Rock


Pack a pack horse and rest up here on
Black Country Rock
You never know, you might find it here on

Some say the view is crazy
But you may adopt another point of view
So if it's much too hazy
You can leave my friend and me with fond adieu

Wings - Mikael Rickfors


/Pre words/

I have been paying off my life, and been standing  back in the cue
Never had vacation or taken any wage
I have been living as a millionaire and allowed myself everything
The one who lives on credit has to pay thousand-fold

I have understood now and I know my desire
What I shall do and use the future to
I shall buy wings for the money and fly out over the meadows

Because there is a special meaning that to only just be existing
To do what you must is to what you want
I  get a glimpse of a fortune in the shadow of a dream
where the birds are wild when they awake from the dream

I have understood now and I know my desire
What I shall do and use the future to

I shall buy wings for the money and fly out over the meadows
And when I have flew a thousand miles
I will fly another thousand more

Because, to do what you must is to do what you want
My wings I shall fasten with a love that is true
My wings I shall win and then I say I won
But you win no freedom without sacrifice of who you were
And turn toward the wind and shout out your answer

I have understood now and I know my desire
What I shall do and use the future to

I shall buy wings for the money and fly out over the meadows
And when I have flew a thousand miles
I will fly another thousand more
