Every time I thought I’d got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I’ve never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I’m much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes…

—David Bowie, “Changes,” Hunky Dory, 1971

4. Nice to see Angie receive due credit for her promotion of Bowie during a crucial period...

in his career. Her contributions are too often overlooked or dismissed.
