"Where are we now?"

Forty-four years ago I don't think either of us would have expected that a day would come, when a Bowie single release would be headline news, worthy of more than one item in the BBC Today program this morning. "Where are we now?"... David asks, reflecting in his lyric the time he spent in Berlin.

From The Guardian...

"The track was put on sale in the iTunes store in 119 countries on Tuesday morning and a video preview posted on his website, which has been relaunched for the occasion. His 30th studio recording, The Next Day, would be released in March, said the Iso/Columbia record company. The glam-rock singer shot to fame in the late 60s with Space Oddity but has been largely silent in recent years, not performing live since 2006 and rarely appearing in public since then."
