  • THIS IS THE OPERA VERSION,

    THE GODLY VOICE OF A UTOPIAN

    THAT SO FILLS UP THE SONG

    IT CARRIES ALL WITH MERELY THE PIANO

    & IT HONORS THE MAN WHO INVENTED

    PATHOS FOR THE 70s

    THE NAPOLEON OF ROMANTICISM

    MARC

    EROS, NOT YET ALL DEAD

  • That was some speech my friend

  • What's up with the Bowie vocals concerns?

    Maybe he doesn't sound as good as the original song but absolutely EVERY artist is going to sound a bit different if they make a acoustic version of a song

    And this is a demo as well

  • Thumbs up if you suspect Skrillex was the one who disliked this.

  • i love playing this on guitar such a good song

  • Is it just me or is Lady Stardust by far the finest tune of an exceptional record that is Ziggy Stardust?

  • I for one think this version is better X3 I love listening to raw demo versions. Usually you can hear more emotion.

  • What a find, a raw class version of a work in progress.

  • @milescend ..Exactly..switches to camp androgeny or resignation on the final release from a more mysterious secretive undertone of LIED ...Good observation..I missed that until you pointed it out! cheers!

  • Nice and inspiring always to hear the works in progress..cheers for the upload, Xen Smithy.

  • Awful nice

  • @jhiken Look for Ryko CDs. They all have bonus tracks - demos and alternate versions - and they're dynamite. Even though I have many Bowie albums on vinyl dating back to the 60s, I bought all the Ryko CDs and haven't regretted a single purchase.

  • "..and I smile sadly for a love I could not obey..." so true to me right now, I still loving her. what can i do? just cry and sing this song of darkness and disgrace.

    (sure she wont ever find this comment)
