It's my tribute to Bowie in appreciation and greatest admiration.

It's a mix of original song and vignette covers.

I'll put up the lyrics tomorrow.

### Thursday, 4th ###

Lyrics here;


David played guitar
He played the soundtrack of my life
The Starman from the stars
He fashioned Fashion like a knife
And we can all be heros now that
You have set the stage
you gave us our identity
you redefined our age

Where David laid his hand
His Sound and Vision changed the game
Then we were Ziggy's band
We found ourselves in David's Fame
We're the children
Spat on before David
changed our World
Every Young American
Every China Girl
You made the songs that
Echo down through
Golden Years

Now Ziggy plays guitar
On different worlds in different space
And he's the superstar
The lightning drawn across his face
The Man Who Fell to Earth
He came to town but now he's gone                                                        
The stars look very different today and from now on

Can you hear me Major Tom?
'cause we believe in you...

Well done. It was real cool way you took us through the little snippets of Bowie's work in the middle of the song. A great tribute.

Great idea, beautifully executed. Really dig the lyrical references as well as the snippet mashup. Nice one, man.

Watching the Brits tonight I couldn't help wondering if they'd pinched my medley idea ;)

Stunning performance by Lorde on Life On Mars though
