well i was watching the man's best of dvd, and the thing which astonishes me, im a big fan of bands/acts like u2, REM, depeche mode and madonna (who people say is the next bowie, but that remains to be seen) which have lasted 20 years, and alot of them are sucking, people want them to break up, or die, or bordering on being majorly burned out, but Mr Bowie has lasted 30+ years!
i think the thing which keeps him ticking other than his ability to continue to write a good "catchy" song, is his ability to keep up with fashion, and styles of the times, it didnt bother him he looked ridiculous in a video or a certain music video he did in the past is so cheesey it borders on freaky! he just goes: 'yep, i did that' and moved on to the next phase
his ability to write music is astonishing as well because he doesnt have one of the greatest voices of all time, yet he has that uncanny ability to make music of any genre which accompanies his voice
for his staying power he is a deity
