(Bowie)
Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song
I've heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true
They got a message
from the Action Man
I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved
all I've needed to love
Sordid details following
The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls
in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing
CHORUS
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's 4
a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all time low
Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
I'm happy, hope you're happy too
One flash of light
but no smoking pistol
I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue,
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now
CHORUS
My mother said
to get things done
You'd better not mess
with Major Tom

David Bowie (pronunciato ['bo?.wi] in inglese), pseudonimo di David Robert Jones (Brixton, 8 gennaio 1947 – New York, 10 gennaio 2016), è stato un cantante, polistrumentista, attore e compositore britannico. Attivo dalla metà degli anni sessanta fino alla sua morte nel 2016, Bowie ha attraversato cinque decenni nella musica rock, reinventando nel tempo il suo stile e la sua immagine attraverso personaggi iconici come Ziggy Stardust, Halloween Jack e The Thin White Duke (noto in Italia come il Duca Bianco). La sua musica spazia dal folk acustico all'elettronica, passando attraverso il glam rock, il soul e il krautrock, lasciando un'impronta indelebile sulla storia della musica. Bowie ha collaborato con artisti di diverse generazioni, tra cui Iggy Pop, Queen e Nile Rodgers. Oltre alla musica, Bowie si è cimentato anche nell'arte cinematografica, recitando in film come *L'uomo che cadde sulla Terra* (1976), *Furyo* (1983) e *Basquiat* (1996). Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo *The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars* (1972), *Station to Station* (1976) e *Heroes* (1977). Alcuni dei suoi brani più rappresentativi sono *Space Oddity*, *Changes*, *Let's Dance* e *Heroes*.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
