Stardust: a Memorial to David Bowie.
My golden years began in 1984. I became a future legend, going where no one's been before. In the marketsquare, lightning struck my eye. I followed that lightning as it traveled at the speed of life. At that speed, my grinning soul and I felt like Supermen, As we were watched by all the madmen. We flew like the wind, straight into space, a real night flight. We loved all we saw, including the lonely satellite. We were oddities in space, and soon my fascination Took me to inhabited worlds, space station to station. I met, Warszawans, Neukölns, Subterraneans, I gained fame across the universe as a young American. I saw cat people ruling a criminal world. I found Modern love with a strange looking girl. A prisoner of love, I shouted "Heaven is here!" I found myself traveling I ran wild in the streets, they all thought I was deranged My sanity was not ready to face this strange change. I saw hallucinations that the world fell down My grinning soul pulled me out from underground. In the suburbs of Buddha, we were strangers when we met. Here tin machine guard thought I was a neighborhood threat. She said, "Hallo spaceboy." I said "Oh, you pretty thing!" She took me to her father, the great disco king. Iintroduced myself, and her name was Blue Jean Genie. The wedding took place at the Palace of Athena. The very next day, we took her ship Gemini The honeymoon was filled with stars that night. We saw rock stars, pop stars, new killer stars. But the prettiest of all, was that strange black star. |
Had never heard the original version of this song until today. A very youthful Bowie in 1969.

Bowie was cool whatever look he used. He was the epitome of effortless cool.
