My fan life with David Bowie
lasted 21 months. It was intense. I plastered my bedroom walls with Bowie
posters and bought, the LP’s Ziggy Stardust, Hunky Dory, Space Oddity and The
Man Who Sold the World.
At its height, I remember one
afternoon, nervously propping the Aladdin Sane album cover up against the
pillows on my bed and kissing his lips.
It all started on the 3rd July 1972, I’d just turned 13, the night Bowie performed Starman on Top of the Pops. And ended on the 24th May 1974, when Diamond Dogs was released. I didn’t like it.
