“The whole reason for going [to Berlin] was because it was so low-key. Jim [Iggy Pop] and I - we were both having the same problems - knew it was the kind of place where you walk around and really are left alone and not stopped by people. They're very blasé there. Cynical, irony-based people and it's a great place if you really want to try and do some soul-searching and find out what it is you really want.”

David Bowie, Q magazine, June 1989
