I'm watching the Proms - and what do I hear?
David Bowie songs, classical stylee
Though not sung in opera fashion, no - more
That crap middle-class style, don't have to be
Able to sing at all, no, not really
A poor version of Heroes, not the best
Song in the Bowie catalogue, maybe
Now there's a classically-trained singer pressed
Into service, a track from Low, no less
The way he sings, it's quite high register
And a sparse song made emotional as he
Extends the length of the vocal lines, best
To showcase his instrument that rings clear
Now Marc Almond's doing Starman. Crazy!
