“A sensitive young girl’s reaction to the media. I think she finds herself disappointed with reality, that although she’s living in the doldrums of reality, she’s being told that there’s a far greater life somewhere, and she’s bitterly disappointed that she doesn’t have access to it.”

— David Bowie, talking about his 1971 hit ‘Life on Mars?’ (via thechocolatebrigade)
