Keith's David Bowie "songtence"

He was the "Rebel Rebel" who realised "It's Hard To Be A Saint In The City" as all the "Young Americans" and "All The Young Dudes" were asking "Let's Spend The Night Together". So, though potentially committing "Rock 'N' Roll Suicide" he asked is there "Life On Mars" only to discover, through "Sound and Vision", the "Space Oddity" that is the "Starman" "Ziggy Stardust" and "Changes" himself in his "Golden Years" from "The Man Who Sold The World" to one of our greatest "Heroes"! So it's "The Jean Genie" David Bowie for me please
