All this how reverts back to my one true love, my complete infatuation with music and artistic integrity.  The Man Who Sold The World is David Bowie's third studio album and it has one of the best songs on it, which also happens to be the title of the record.  

I guess you can say that watching a snippet of the closing ceremony of the 2012 Olympics and playing David Bowie's music in the background, I went straight to the D's in my vinyl collection and pulled out some David Bowie records.  I always forget how awesome he and talented he is.  He is one unique individual with his own style.  He's not even afraid to take it to the limits and push boundaries.  

So back to what I was saying above.  The Man Who Sold The World was covered by Nirvana, which they played on my favorite album ever Nirvana Unplugged (which I need to work on getting that vinyl record STAT).  It was sung by Kurt Cobain with such beauty and sadness.  Just beautiful and therefore, I accept this song as being my in my top 5.

Enjoy!!
