I had a dog named Ziggy Stardust and she lived to be 17 years old. She lived from 2007 to 2023, she was old and her kidney was failing, in the car on the way to the vet to put her down we played her song one last time. I will never forget how sad i was to put her down, I loved her very much. I listen to this song all of the time now because it reminds me of how much I loved my dog. This is one of my favorite songs.

So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls? Just the beer light to guide us. So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands? Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were Voodoo The kids were just crass, He was the naz With God given ass He took it all too far But, boy, could he play guitar.

Probably 98% of credible artists over the past 30 years would cite him as an influence. Btw & purely coincidental, I have just introduced Lewis (my son) to a band called "Suede" which he loves. They were around in the late 80's & although pretty big in the UK, never really got to where they should have been. Try "Animal Nitrate" by them - very Bowie'esque!

Also in Rock n roll suicide he recited it as wall to wall is calling, but on quick handwritten lyrics by David Bowie , David wrote “water-wall’s calling” (I’ve seen a photo of the handwritten lyrics, google Rock n roll suicide lyrics and it should come up) anyway now every time I listen to many different versions I can so clearly hear that he is singing water wall now.kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYnVemqOhN6tZppl6:46 16 minutes 46, but the Bowie part starts at 13:16

Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Wierd and Gilly, And The Spiders from Mars. He played it left hand, but made it too far, Became the special man, Then we were Ziggy's Band. Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling He could leave 'em to hang Here came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan. So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls? Just the beer light to guide us. So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands? Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were Voodoo The kids was just crass, He was the naz With God given ass He took it all too far But boy could he play guitar. Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind Like a leper messiah When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band Ziggy played guitar

Look up Neil Gaiman's 'The Return of the Thin White Duke'. That's right - Neil Gaiman wrote David Bowie fanfic.

To me growing up in the 70's in the UK the man was a literal God! I remember walking along a beach here in Essex during those wonderful summers we had back in the day with "Drive in Saturday" going round & round in my head! Now....... the guy is all but unknown by most people under 35 - such a shame!

[@pup1008]

Glad to hear it Chad! maybe you could encourage a few of your British cousins of the same age to do the same!

[@jamieduggan4297]

i wish i was a teenager in the 70s and 80s

[@pup1008]

Certainly as someone who lived through all three decades in the UK & was a teen in the latter two, the 70's was a the best time for music but the 80's was a good time to be alive generally - The UK was a very prospourous country back then & everyone had money & was having a great time. Mind you, when you are 17, good looking, & know the people it's good to know ANY time is a good time to be alive! The 60's had some amazing sounds but the UK was still suffering from the financial & physical effects of WW2 & was still quite a grey & depressing place. The 80's had some decent music although thinking about it, a lot of the stuff I listened to came from overseas - bands like the amazing "Rush" & "Talking Heads." Probably one of our greatest song writers came out of this era - Mr. Paul Weller. His band "The Jam" were rightly HUGE for a time.

[@michaeloberman1250]

It was in 1971 that I spent the day with David Bowie and my brother upon David's arrival in the U.S. at Dulles Airport in Virginia. Bowie's first trip to the U.S. was a three week promotional tour for Mercury Records. Bowie had yet to break big here in the States. In an article many years later in VMagazine, David wrote about his heroes and one of them was the Legendary Stardust Cowboy...and if it wasn't for my brother, David would not have become Ziggy Stardust. In David's own words: "In early 1971, just before my departure from the States back to the U.K., Mercury executive Ron Oberman took me aside and furtively pressed a couple of singles into my hand. "Play these," he said. "You will never be the same again." Back home, I choked on "Paralyzed," gasped in awe at "Down in the Wrecking Yard," and fell all about the floor at "I Took a Trip on a Gemini Spaceship." It was the laugh of love. I could not believe that such a talent had gone virtually unrecognized. If ever there was an equivalent to outsider art, this was it. The integrity, honesty, and innocent, brutal focus entranced me. I became a lifelong fan, and Ziggy got a surname."

[@brief_illusions]

I just looked up Legendary Stardust Cowboy, LMAO.... thank you. That was awesome.
