SONG TUTORIALS

Starman

David Bowie was in full Ziggy Stardust mode when he wrote Starman back in 1972. It’s a gorgeous song but it does have some tricky chords – so (with the help of my brainstrust from SMUG) I have given you a couple of options for FMaj7, Ab and Bb. There’s also a great riff that runs through the Interlude and Outro – with two levels to choose from. Please print off the revised song sheet, watch the video tutorial and you can then play along with Bowie singing this on Top of the Pops! And for those interested in fun cover versions, listen to the soundtrack for the fabulous Wes Anderson (my favourite director) film, The Life Aquatic With Steve Sissou for three great Bowie covers by Seu Jorge, including Starman.
