About This Quote

When David Bowie was asked to perform a song at the Live Aid concert, he turned it down. Once he got up on stage and sang "Heroes," he proved to everyone that he has what it takes to do anything. After all, if you have the talent, nothing can stop you from being recognized for your talent. He also showed everyone that performing at a huge concert is not just about standing in the spotlight and singing your song for a bunch of people. It’s about being able to have fun and making it into an art form.
