Lyrics:
It's a God-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling no
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
About David Bowie:
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

    It’s a passing day today Friday, November 19. The man who shot this video for David Bowie, Mick Rock has died today. Mick Rock has did tons of work for many different artists David Bowie, Queen, Iggy Pop etc. He was known to many as “the man who shot the 70s” but I’m sure he was so much more. It’s good to realize and learn about the people behind such great masterpieces such as this besides the artist who wrote and preformed them.

    Stick with the stuff he did up to and including the album "Scary monsters super creeps." Wouldn't bother with too much in the 90s and 2000s save for a few notable tracks. Funny enough the one song that for me incapsulate Bowie in a bottle was written during this fallow period and is called the "Buddha of Suburbia" - those quintessentially quirky lyrics and driving Mick Ronson guitar. 👍

  • @ilikemilk781

    My grandad is the biggest David Bowie fan I know, and this is his all time favourite song. When I asked him what he thought the meaning of the song was, he told me he personally believes it’s about a young girl falling pregnant and how the world has turned against her after she reveals this information to her mum and dad. And that her life becomes miserable with everyone doubting her and everything going wrong for her. To the point where she doesn’t want to be on this planet, she just wants to be on an entirely different planet away from everything. Hence the name life on Mars Edit: Been about 6 months since I commented this and I find it interesting how music and art in general can be viewed in so many different lights and interpreted in so many different ways. I feel that maybe my grandad thinks the song is about a young teen girl who falls pregnant is maybe because my mother was 16 when she had me. And it’s most likely he reflected his own experience of feeling with that into his own interpretation of the song. Idk I just find that really interesting. Art and music are amazing and no one should tell you your interpretation is wrong cause that’s how you see it, that is the truth to you as the viewer, and no one should ever be able to take that away.

    I view it the first part as a sort of look at the news from the eyes of a teen. People die, politicians/pigs squabble, business as usual. I view the second as a much older version of that same person reliving it through art. I view the "Is there life on mars?" question as a sort of "when will anything ever change?" in general.

    in 2015, I, a 14years old autistic struggling with social bonds, lonely listening to music in their bedroom at 1am, fell in love with bowie and music to a whole ; all of that thanks to how this song and videoclip spoke to me. I can't put down in words how Life on Mars changed the course of my earthly life for the better : I learned guitar and even built one inspired by his bolt shaped look. He gave me my first non binary representation, and pushed me to embrace my real gender identity. He help me to understand what it meant to be an artist. I, miss you so much

I was the older sister listening to Bowie, the Tubes, Sabbath, etc., while my younger sister stole my Hotel California, Breakfast in America, and Foreigner albums (no longer in regular play on my turntable, but still appreciated). She tried to nick The Police’s early albums from me, too. I can’t speak about what she did with my unwrapped (for over 4 decades) second vinyl of Dark Side of the moon- the only gift my dad picked out for me by himself (without mom’s help) while he was in London. 😢

    Today, january the 8th 2023, David Bowie would have turned 76. It still hurts that he is not around us anymore. A genius, a true artist and a rare soul he was. "Life on Mars?" is my favorite song of all times and I keep going back to this video several times a year, for it is so beautifully made, it fits the overall mood of the song so well. I can't even describe the feelings this majestic song gives me. From first listen, I was hooked instantly. I love this song and I love David Bowie. Hope he's in a better place now, he deserves it truly. May he be a starman waiting in the sky, knowing that he has changed the world for the best. Rest in peace, starman.

    Well, as it was fifty years ago, there are today people in their sixties and older who, I suppose, could well imagine the shocking and mesmerising novelty of this original pop video. On the other hand, had anyone in their eighties and nineties glimpsed this in 1973, say on one of the only three TV channels available to anyone who possessed a television in Britain, by then most households, then they would not have been so surprised. Why? Because they grew up with music hall acts and vaudeville, then the staple of British popular entertainment, with much dressing-up and buffoonery and mockery. A ninety-year-old in 1973 had been born in 1883! Bowie here, in Life On Mars?, is a pantomime character. As a child in south London, he would have been well aware of music hall legends - under the likes of which a young Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel learned their trade. Indeed, it is said that David Bowie’s idea for the “Major Tom” character in his 1969 hit song “Space Oddity” was sparked by seeing a poster advertising variety show acts as managed by one Tom Major, father of future British prime minister John Major, who was prime minister after Margaret Thatcher in the 1990s. Yes, Bowie here has burnt up the colours to paint himself as a novelty television star. The effect was dampened by the fact that probably more than half of British households in 1973 had still only a black-and-white television in the house. Colour television was so expensive that people frequently rented a television set. But to Bowie’s advantage, as there were only three TV channels available to any Briton, when his pop video was played, on Top Of The Pops only, probably, because it reached the no. 3 spot and stayed there for 3 consecutive weeks, at least one-in-three people watching TV would have watched it. Moreover! Moreover, the family gathered round the television set, the only flickering screen in the house, would have sat there agog at this pantomime character, effeminate in parts but giving way to a determined maleness, strutting very gracefully through his pop routine, such that, as they were in each other’s company, they talked about this wild character and his eccentric, expressive thoughts, however not much different in wildness and eccentricity to so many other household names in film, music or art at that time. The old stage introduction of “for your entertainment and approval” is what is effectively mockingly teased by Bowie here. A low-waist culture that comes with mass entertainment as lifestyle is the target of Bowie’s sardonic routine. Do we really want to say yes to all of it? Puffed up and fluffed up, but full of a weary resignation, Bowie takes pot shots at the exotic bird he is, at himself, the pantomime villain who represents the numbness of all-conquering mass entertainment. Even in 1973! It’s a pose by Bowie, though, too. He’s letting you know that he got there first to tell you so! On TV! And in colour! So in only a limited way did Bowie shock and mesmerise his TV audience in the ‘seventies. There were not enough colour TV sets to go round. Merely getting a colour picture was what was new and unusual, in fact. And it is a little sad to realise that perhaps this pop video was only played twice or three times over the airwaves throughout the Seventies. Hardly a recipe for shocking a nation. But the name of the game back then was to get people to take note. They remembered …. something. And then something of a mystique developed. And that’s what’s missing in the mountain of stuff that is today’s internet world, full of tiny ridiculous screens. What’s shocking is that nobody is shocked or mesmerised by anything anymore. We are lesser people for it. We are not in fact cool and easy about a certain something just because we assume that folk in ‘72 would have been so closeted in their taste and horizons that they would have died from embarrassment in the same boat. Yes, such is the desire for information and tidbits today, that it is no surprise really that no-one can imagine anymore how to be shocked and entertained.

    David Bowie's timeless masterpiece of empathy for "the girl with the mousy hair" which tells the story of that mousy haired girl being stood up for her date at the theatre... and deciding to stay for the movie, fails miserably at her attempt to lose herself in the film... a now completely unbelievable love story that she can only find disdain for as she sits alone in a theatre full of date night couples which leaves her reliving the advice given to her by the parents, whom she now dreads having to face at the end of her "night out"... Bravo to David Bowie for all the firsts and many of the only's he created. A true genius... responsible for every ground breaking musical genre to come in the next three decades following his first album release... for all the mousy haired girls like me.

    To me, this is the most beautiful Bowie ...I see this 4:10 seconds of his existence to be the apex fruition of him...im absolutely blinded by his beauty...and it will forever ring eternal within me. We should all be grateful he shared it and we experienced it in our lifetimes🔥

    I’ve said it before but have you ever tried to hit that note when he sings the word, “Mars?” It’s beyond my range. Bowie has a deep range too. Multi talented. I usually watch this song once per day.

    Hannah Dowds hi, when I come close to hitting it, then you are right, I can’t keep going and warble the word “Mars” into the other notes he goes to. He always said in interviews that he knew he couldn’t sing. I think he can really sing and had a very wide range. I love his music so much. Been listening since the early ‘70’s. Saw him preform live twice. He didn’t come to my area very often.

    I wish I was a teenager when Bowie first exploded on the scene in the late 1960's early '70's but at least I'm old enough to remember when "Fame" and "Fashion" first hit the airwaves [I think I was in middle school at that point] I very vividly remember being in my first or second year of HS when the "Modern Love" album dropped. I had a friend who went to that concert when Bowie was here in NYC. I'm still jealous of him to this day!!!!

    Could you imagine watching this guy write songs in his house. Like, he was a person who paid bills, etc. But to see how he actually put songs together, and his view point on making art, would be really crazy. My mom's first husband in the 70s partied with Bowie, actually danced together with him, and not for a second, but like hours. She said he was super down to earth and fun asf.

    His first few years, the glam rock era, I think he hunted to be a hit artist and was "trying to pay the bills". Once he finally made it he really did his own thing, you can see his music evolve over the years and he always kept an open ear to different music genres, even new ones. His relationship with Trent Reznor is interesting as well if you want some insight into his industrial music period (I'm afraid of Americans et al).

    @@usulnet1386 That's the thing about the top artists, the ones that are always at the top. They always have an open mind, and they always find the best bits and peices of the music they grew up with and found things that the audience loved and the things they didnt and then kept evolving. IKEA does the same thing when they have a product out, they do surveys to see what products do well vs ones that dont. I feel people treat being famous as an identity in it's self rather than being famous for something they created that they loved. They see themselves as world class musicians or entertainers rather than famous people in general.
