Lady Stardust

"Lady Stardust" is a song written by David Bowie that appeared on the album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972). The song is generally interpreted as alluding to fellow glam rock icon Marc Bolan.^[1]^[2] The original demo version was entitled "He Was Alright (A Song for Marc)."

Live versions

Bowie played the song at the BBC show Sounds of the 70s with Bob Harris on 25 May 1972. This was broadcast on 19 June 1972 and in 2000 was released on the album Bowie at the Beeb.

The original demo version of the song was released as a bonus track on the Rykodisc CD release of Ziggy Stardust in 1990. This also appeared on the Ziggy Stardust - 30th Anniversary Reissue bonus disc in 2002.
It appeared on the Russian compilation Starman in 1989.
