Watch new video for David Bowie's 'Starman' featuring never-before-seen footage

A new music video for David Bowie’s 1972 hit Starman has been released, featuring never-before-seen performance footage of the iconic artist in '72 and ’73 by famed photographer Mick Rock.

The video's release comes with the news that the first-ever Dolby Atmos spatial-audio mix of Bowie's landmark 1972 album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars will be available soon. 

The new release was mixed by Ken Scott - who produced the original album with Bowie - and Emre Ramazanoglu at RAK Studios in London.

The new Starman video features a montage of colour and black-and-white film clips of Bowie performing with his backing band The Spiders from Mars during his 1972-1973 U.K. tour - including clips of Bowie dressed as his flamboyant Ziggy Stardust persona strumming an acoustic 12-string guitar and donning various outlandish outfits.

All of The Spiders from Mars—guitarist Mick Ronson, bassist Trevor Bolden, and drummer Mick “Woody” Woodmansey—also appear in the video. In addition, footage of Bowie’s rapid fans in the audience of various concerts are featured in the clip as well.

Starman was the most successful single released from the album.
