David BowieThis commemorative folio presents 20 timeless songs arranged for piano and voice, with full lyrics, chord symbols and guitar chord boxes, and an exclusive new foreword from renowned music journalist Chris Charlesworth.

David Bowie 1947 - 2016

A frequent response to the death of David Bowie was that it was unexpected because he had seemed immortal. The reason for that, of course, lay in the incredible variety of professional personæ he had adopted in a long and unique career. Bowie always seemed other-worldly and it was no accident that Nicolas Roeg chose him to play the humanoid alien in his 1976 movie The Man Who Fell To Earth.

It was music though, that was to provide David Bowie with a springboard for tireless self-reinvention across half a century. His songs collected here appeared on albums ranging from 1969 to 2016. From ‘Space Oddity’ to ‘Lazarus’ here is what made the man a legend: the music from the many lives of David Bowie.

Includes...

‘Absolute Beginners’, ‘Ashes to Ashes’, ‘Changes’, ‘Golden Years’, ‘Heroes’, ‘The Jean Genie’, ‘Lazarus’, ‘Let’s Dance’, ‘Life On Mars?’, ‘The Man Who Sold The World’, ‘Modern Love’, ‘Oh! You Pretty Things’, ‘Rebel Rebel’, ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide’, ‘Sound and Vision’, ‘Space Oddity’, ‘Starman’, ‘Where Are We Now’, ‘Wild Is The Wind’ and ‘Ziggy Stardust’.

Steal My Girl

Words & Music by Wayne Hector, John Ryan, Julian Bunetta, Ed Drewett, Liam Payne & Louis Tomlinson

Look at the rst note in each hand to work out where you should position them.

On count 4 of bar 2, the pair of quavers are split between your hands, the rst quaver being played by your right hand and the second by

your left hand—make sure you don’t play them too slowly. This happens quite a few times in this song.

All I Ask Words & Music by Adele Adkins, Bruno Mars,

In contrast to her first two efforts, 25 has been described by Adele as a “make-up record”, and this song sums

that up perfectly. She stated that she included the line “it matters how this ends” because, for her and her

friends, how something ends is the most important thing because that’s what sticks in your memory.

Hints & Tips: Make the most of the dynamic contrasts in this, playing with as much feeling as you can,

especially in the chorus (from bar 33).

As speculation about Adele’s new music reached its peak, a cryptic advert appeared on UK TV which featured the first verse of this song. Adele had finally said “Hello” again to her fans after a three year break from music, and the song was unveiled as the first single from her album 25. The emotional ballad marked a stunning return for the 27 year-old, debuting at No. 1 in the UK Charts in October 2015.Hints & Tips: Count the rhythms of all the tied notes carefully before you begin. This rhythm is repeated throughout.
