"Julie" by David Bowie
I'm posting this song for Dottie, because she has challenged me to find a David Bowie link to the books we read.
"Julie" is a B-side to "Day-in Day-out." This is the only clip for the song that I could find on YouTube. For reasons known only to the video's creator, the song has been set to clips from the movie The Man Who Fell to Earth.
