Before Gaga

Before Lady Gaga. 
Before Madonna. 
There was his royal glamness 
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust, 
The Man Who Fell to Earth.
"The Children of the summer's end
Gathered in the dampened grass
We played Our songs 
and felt the London sky
Resting on our hands
It was God's land
It was ragged and naive
It was Heaven"

"The Sun Machine is Coming Down, 
and We're Gonna Have a Party
The Sun Machine is Coming Down, 
and We're Gonna Have a Party
The Sun Machine is Coming Down, 
and We're Gonna Have a Party
The Sun Machine is Coming Down, 
and We're Gonna Have a Party
The Sun Machine is Coming Down, 
and We're Gonna Have a Party." 
exerpts from Memory of a Free Festival by David Bowie 1969
