旁白:1962年,少年大卫·琼斯因打架导致左眼受伤,这次意外反而让他对外貌的独特性产生了追求。多年后,他为了突破事业瓶颈,决定创造一个全新的舞台形象。在与地下丝绒乐队成员的误会中,他受到启发,开始认真思考如何通过模仿和创新,塑造一个与众不同的身份。他从电影《发条橙》和日本歌舞伎中汲取灵感,最终创造了Ziggy Stardust这个雌雄同体的外星摇滚明星形象。1972年2月10日,大卫·鲍伊首次以Ziggy Stardust的身份登台演出,尽管观众人数不多,但这次演出却为他带来了意想不到的成功,迅速在音乐界传播开来。同年夏天,他受邀参加英国顶级音乐节目“Top of the Pops”,凭借一首《Starman》迅速走红,成为了全球瞩目的摇滚明星。尽管Ziggy Stardust只是他众多舞台形象中的一个,但它无疑是大卫·鲍伊音乐生涯中一个重要的里程碑,为他赢得了世界范围内的认可和赞誉。
