Dernierement David Bowie avait donné quelques informations sur la chanson "she will drive the big car" (voir les messages de bord de Man Of music).
Il ajoute quelques précisions lors de la diffusion de celle ci sur XFM on line. Je colle l'article tiré de Bnet (si quelqu'un pouvait me le traduire correctement ce serait très sympa). J'ai compris l'idée générale mais sur MoM nous avons des linguistes chevroné(e)s et c'est bien utile lorsque on a un rhume de cerveau comme moi en ce moment...j'en peut plus là.
"Staying with, I guess, an American theme because.. well, much of the album is American. I wrote the album in New York and my wife and I and our child are residents and citizens of that particular city so it's very hard to not be totally influenced by it, it's so dominating a place, there's such a buzz there. It doesn't stop for 24 hours a day and it just goes on. New York goes on and on. For some people it doesn't go on and on and the woman who is the progenitor of this next song, 'She'll Drive The Big Car', is a woman who feels her time has come to an end and she shall not go on and on. And she drives down by the river every day and it does occur to her, one day, that she and the rest of her family will pay a more intimate trip to the river and I think we are left with the idea at the end of the song that she probably turns the car off the road into the river. It's a sad little American story. It seems most great American tragedies have something to do with an automobile, so that's why this particular one takes place in a car. It's called 'She'll Drive The Big Car'. "
