During the 70's and 80's David Bowie was in the backdrop of my consciousness, but I was never really a fan at that time . Now I appreciate the man tremendously, especially for his early work, and his uniqueness. Below are the lyrics to one of my favorite Bowie songs, and a few pics. Also check out the link to the 1980 'Ashes To Ashes' music video! Very dated.
Ashes To Ashes
by David Bowie -1980
do you remember a guy that's been
in such an early song
i heard a rumour from ground control
oh no, don't say it's true
they got a message from the action man
i'm happy hope you're happy too
i've loved all i've needed love
sordid details following
the shrieking of nothing is killing
just pictures of jap girls in synthesis
and i ain't got no money and and i ain't got no hair
but i'm hoping to kick but the planet is glowing aglow aglow
ashes to ashes funk to funky
we know major tom's a junky
strung out on heaven's high
hitting an all time low
time and again i tell myself
i'll stay clean tonight
but the little green wheels are following me
oh no not again
i'm stuck with a valuable friend
i'm happy hope you're happy too
one flash of light
but no smoking pistol
i've never done good things
i've never done bad things
i never did anything out of the blue
want an axe to break the ice
want to come down right now
ashes to ashes funk to funky
we know major tom's a junky
strung out on heaven's high
hitting an all time low
my mama said to get things done
you better not mess with major tom
my mama said to get things done
you better not mess with major tom
my mama said to get things done
you better not mess with major tom
