‘Lady Stardust’ is a reference to Ziggy Stardust, a fictional character who served as David Bowie’s stage persona during 1972 and 1973. His song ‘Lady Stardust’ is the central piece of the narrative of the album ‘The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars’.
The song ‘Lady Stardust’ presents a complete "birth-to-death chronology" of the Ziggy character, who arrived on Earth as an androgynous alien rock star. With an impending apocalyptic disaster facing planet Earth, Ziggy’s purpose was to deliver a message of hope to a planet dying over a lack of natural resources.
