What is the story behind the man who sold the world?
This song is about a man who no longer recognizes himself and feels awful about it. For years, Bowie struggled with his identity and expressed himself through his songs, often creating characters to perform them. ... Then he (the old David Bowie) says: "Oh no, not me. I never lost control."
