I was (am...) also a massive Bowie fan.  Outside of close friends and family, I think his death hit me harder than anyone else's.

Your lyrics made me think a bit of the track "Dandy" by Ian Hunter, Bowie's old mate from Mott the Hoople.  You can check it out here if you like:



He was also inspired to reference some Bowie song names in the track, although I think you squeezed more in.  Hope you continue and put some music behind yours too.
It's all too beautiful.

I think Bowie saved Ian Hunter and his musical career and indeed that of Mott the Hoople...
ie All The Young Dudes???

But thanks anyways.
