  • Gail wrote this song when she was still in the band. It's about how it was to work with David. She says: "It is basically how it felt to suddenly be whisked away in one of the coolest bands in the world, and to be travelling, performing, and appearing all over the world with one of the greatest and most charismatic artists of our time. Magical is the word that comes to mind. It felt like being caught in a fairytale, one of those things that doesn't happen to you, but to someone else, someone luckier than you. Well, this time I was queen for a day, and it is a time I will always remember. If you look closely at the lyrics, I make many references to the names of Bowie songs; Little Wonder, Hero, Fame. The chorus begins "I want to dance", which is a play on 'Let's Dance'. Stuff like that. I was trying to have fun with it."

    I found myself smiling throughout this video thinking of the wonderful bond they shared and then reality hits and I cry, remembering the loss we all share. Thank you for this beautiful piece.

    I liked watching those two on stage...what a special bond they had. No doubt she misses David a lot and still does even now...

    Love all the Bowie song titles throughout; the fact they don't stick out like a sore thumb is a sign of her writing talent.

    I know Iman was the love of his life, but this lady and he obviously had a very special relationship!

    I can't watch this often enough and David and Gail performing Absolute Beginners...nothing I've seen compares to the two of them having fun together and singing their hearts out!

    Beautiful voice, lovely lyrics. I just love watching David and Gail together they are amazing. She must be devastated. Rest in Space Starman (nicked that from someone but it sounds so perfect)
