It was 2:47 in the morning in Munich.
Tina Turner was alone in a hotel room. The tour had ended six hours earlier. Sixty thousand people. And then everyone had gone.
The phone rang.
It was David Bowie. Calling from London. At 1:47 in the morning his time. He hadn't been prompted. No one had mentioned her name. He has described it simply as knowing — that someone needed the phone to ring.
""I thought you might be awake,"" he said.
They talked until it was light outside.
Tina Turner referenced this call once, briefly, in a 2009 interview. When David died in 2016, she said one sentence that most coverage didn't quote.
This is the story of that sentence. And what it means to be the kind of person who calls at 2:47 in the morning.
