"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. The original demo version was entitled "He Was Alright (A Song for Marc)."
David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016), known as David Bowie (/ˈboʊ.i/), was an English singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, painter, and actor. He was a figure in popular music for over five decades, and was considered by critics and musicians as an innovator, particularly for his work in the 1970s. His career was marked by reinvention and visual presentation, and his music and stagecraft significantly impacted popular music. During his lifetime, he sold an estimated 140 million records worldwide. In the UK, he was awarded nine platinum album certifications, eleven gold and eight silver, and released eleven number-one albums. In the US, he received five platinum and seven gold certifications. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
The word lady is a civil term of respect for a woman, specifically the female equivalent to gentleman or lord, and in many contexts a term for any adult woman. Once confined to usage when specifically addressing women of high social class or status; over the last 300 years, the term may now be used to refer to any respectable adult woman.
The word comes from Old English hlǣfdige; the first part of the word is a mutated form of hlāf, "loaf, bread", also seen in the corresponding hlāford, "lord". The second part is usually taken to be from the root dig-, "to knead", seen also in dough; the sense development from bread-kneader, or bread-maker, or bread-shaper, to the ordinary meaning, though not clearly to be traced historically, may be illustrated by that of "lord".

(WMG owns this not me) Lyrics: People stared at the makeup on his face Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace The boy in the bright blue jeans Jumped up on the stage And lady stardust sang his songs Of darkness and disgrace And he was alright, the band was all together Yes he was alright, the song went on forever Yes he was awful nice Really quite out of sight And he sang all night long Femme fatales emerged from shadows To watch this creature fair Boys stood upon their chairs To make their point of view I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey Lady stardust sang his songs Of darkness and dismay And he was alright, the band was all together Yes he was alright, the song went on forever And he was awful nice Really quite out of sight And he sang ...
Rare footage of David Bowie performing 'Lady Stardust' at the Rainbow Theatre, London in August 1972, as well as clips from other performances in 1972 and some backstage footage from 1973 - all shot presumably by the great Mick Rock. (Look out for Angie Bowie in the crowd shot at 1.17s) Lady Stardust is believed to be a homage to Marc Bolan and although it is not visible in the video, it is said that Marc's face was projected onto the screen behind Bowie whilst he performed this song at the Rainbow. I initially created this edit in June of last year, putting it together from clips derived from various sources. I held off uploading it back then because I was always hopeful that some better quality footage would turn up to replace some of the rougher quality clips I was using. The excel...

My tribute to Jyn "Stardust" Erso from "Rogue One" and of course to my hero - David Bowie. Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso. "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) I really liked "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story".

Used to operating alone, she finds higher purpose by taking on a desperate mission for the Rebel ...

Stardust, Lady Stardust spread your hair across
Your universe of magic, let us in
Let?s fly into the milky-way, climb these concrete walls
And say don?t ever close us in
Like every city needs a distance, every sky demands a moon
Every winter needs a snowfall, every summer wants a June
Money is just a piece of paper, gold is blinding, don?t you see?
Fame is just our own illusion of what life is meant to be
But I don?t need a perfect mirror, I don?t care for queens and kings
We are free and we are perfect, when Lady Stardust sings
Play on
Oh, Lady Stardust sing
Play on
Lady Stardust sing
Stardust, Lady Stardust let us cruise
Around your universe of magic, I?m in
Let?s play this song, on and on
Until the dawn and never let them win
And every minute needs the hour, every day demands a night
Every giant supernova hits the city with your light
Movie stars and grand directors, silver screens and MTV?s
Gods and angels all around me fills the air like little bees
I don?t need no superheroes, I don?t care for gods with wings
I hear teardrops on the pavement when Lady Stardust sings
Play on
Lady Stardust sing, play on
Lady Stardust sing
And I don?t need no superheroes, I don?t care for gods with wings
I hear teardrops on the pavement when Lady Stardust sings
Oh Lady Stardust sing, Lady Stardust sing
Na, na, na ,na ,na, now she sings
Na, na, na ,na ,na, now she sings
Na, na, na ,na, I?ll sing for you
I?ll sing this song, so please hold on
I?ll sing this song for you and say something that matters
And say something that matters
Try to say something that matters to you, so please hold on
