Об этой композиции
The album presents, albeit vaguely, the story of «Ziggy Stardust,» the human manifestation of an alien being who is attempting to present humanity with a message of hope in the last five years of its existence. Ziggy Stardust is the definitive rock star: sexually promiscuous, wild in drug intake and with a message, ultimately, of peace and love; but he is destroyed both by his own excesses of drugs and sex, and by the fans he inspired.
In interviews, Bowie has said that the real-life inspiration for Ziggy was chiefly Vince Taylor, though the lyrics hint at Jimi Hendrix («played it left hand … jiving us that we were voodoo») and the character was likely a composite. Bowie claimed that the name came from a tailor’s shop in London called Ziggy’s. He later told Rolling Stone it was «one of the few Christian names I could find beginning with the letter ‘Z’.» «Stardust» comes from one of Bowie’s labelmates, a country singer named Norman Carl Odam, The Legendary Stardust Cowboy. Bowie covered a Legendary Stardust Cowboy song, «I Took a Trip (On a Gemini Spaceship)» thirty years later on Heathen.

Hmm, like others have said: Where's Bowie? This isn't Bowie. Just like trying to find a REAL Beatles song on here, not just a cover.
