by David Bowie
Starman was written by David Bowie, released in April 1972 as the lead single from his album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Starman is a glam rock song that introduces the character of Ziggy Stardust bringing a message from an alien saviour to Earth, and it was added late in the album’s production at the record company’s request. The single reached the UK top 10, and Bowie’s performance of Starman on BBC’s Top of the Pops in July 1972 is often cited as a pivotal moment that boosted his fame and influenced a generation of musicians and fans.
