As you must know, David Bowie passed away last Sunday, so as a tribute to this unique artist let me introduce you one of his best songs, The Man Who Sold The World.

We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home

We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World
