A shortened version of the track from the 1973 album of the same name, accompanying a montage of clips from the film "Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence" (very apt for the time of year, I hope you will agree!), in which Bowie took a prominent part. Though there is no direct connection between the musical composition and the movie, this seems a decent attempt at artistic creation nevertheless, and well worth a look. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aladdin_Sane_%28song%29
