David Bowie and the story of Ziggy Stardust

Arts Documentary hosted by Jarvis Cocker, published by BBC in 2012 - English narration


Information

David Bowie and the story of Ziggy Stardust
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars is arguably the most important album
in the mind-blowing career of David Bowie. Released in 1972, it's the record that set the mercurial
musician on course to becoming one of the best-known pop stars on the planet. In just over a year,
Bowie's messianic Martian invaded the minds of the nation's youth with a killer combination of
extraterrestrial rock 'n' roll and outrageous sexuality, all delivered in high-heeled boots,
multi-coloured dresses and extravagant make-up. In Bowie's own words, Ziggy was 'a cross between
Nijinsky and Woolworths', but this unlikely culture clash worked - Ziggy turned Bowie into stardust.
This documentary tells the story of how Bowie arrived at one of the most iconic creations in the
history of pop music. The songs, the hairstyles, the fashion and the theatrical stage presentation
that merged together to turn David Bowie into the biggest craze since the Beatles. Ziggy's instant
success gave the impression that he was the perfectly-planned pop star. But, as the film reveals, it
had been a momentous struggle for David Bowie to hit on just the right formula that would take him
to the top. Narrated by fan Jarvis Cocker, it reveals Bowie's mission to the stars through the
musicians and colleagues who helped him in his unwavering quest for fame - a musical voyage that led
Bowie to doubt his true identity, eventually forcing the sudden demise of his alien alter ego, Ziggy.
