Spoon’s Britt Daniel shares cover of David Bowie’s “Never Let Me Down”

Spoon’s Britt Daniel has recorded a cover of David Bowie’s “Never Let Me Down” in tribute to the legendary rock artist, who died on Sunday night. On Facebook, Daniel also shared a statement about Bowie:

I went to bed early last night. Woke up at 3 and glanced at my phone. It’s 515 now and I’m realizing there’ll be no more sleep tonight. I was just saying last week isn’t it amazing how Bowie is still with us and we get another album from him? No other artist has meant as much to me personally or inspired my own songs as much. What a spirit. What an inspiration. What a shining example of the beauty that humanity can create. Bless him.

Listen to Daniel’s “Never Let Me Down” cover below.
