David Bowie is 65!

Unpredictable, mercurial, enigmatic, but always talented David Bowie is 65 today, sharing his birthday with that other rock legend Elvis. Always individualistic Bowie declined a CBE in 2000 and a knighthood in 2003. He said: ‘I would never have any intention of accepting anything like that. I seriously don't know what it's for. It's not what I spent my life working for.’

His Glastonbury performance in 2000 is regarded by fans as one of the greatest Glasto shows of all time. And in a poll of who festival fans want to headline Glastonbury when it returns next year, Bowie was number one choice.



We’ve featured the next track here before but I make no apologies for the repetition. I love it to bits.



Finally a clip with the evergreen Mick:
