the first of many different
characters Bowie would use

knighthood
(rifiutò la nomina di Cavaliere della Regina)
He didn’t need the recognition:
(non aveva bisogno del riconoscimento)
111 singles
5 UK number ones
2 Brit Awards
2 Grammies
already give him a place in
history.

genres: from rock to pop, from
electronica to drum ‘n’bass.
