David Bowie, Ziggystardust, Moonage Daydream

I remember somewhere in the forum that Laura had noted that after the June 20th transcript... 5 more years! 2 go! 0 new year...she had remembered a song called Five Years from the Ziggystardust and the Spiders from Mars album. Well I was in Youtube listening to some Bowie and came across an old favorite of mine, Moonage Daydream off the same album. The lyrics caught my attention, although I have heard it a thousand times in the past, it didn't register in my brain until now how very odd they were.

the lyrics can be found here and it includes a video of early David Bowie. I would have cut and pasted it but was unable to do so. Besides, it is better to just listen to the first verse of the song using the link above...

It's weird, but Five Years (the song) was actually the first thing that came to my mind when I read that session as well. I thought it was just me. :D

My favorite Bowie song is Life on Mars? :)

Thanks for the video links. I'm a younger guy, and I haven't really ever seen any footage of him performing from way back when. It's pretty crazy to see him all young like that. I noticed some of the songs also sounded a little different than the versions I have. More natural.
