David Bowie:
"There's nothing like the oldies.
Ah, thanks a lot. OK, let's move on."
We'll jump right back to 1970. This song, I'm very proud to have written.
Ah, It's been covered no end of times.
And ah, I guess at the time it was considered a a signature song for me.
Um, this is called'The Man Who Sold The World'."
