The girl with the mousy hair…

Hot on the heels of the G4 release of David Bowie’s Life On Mars? as a download only single, (07.18.05 NEWS: G4 LIFE ON MARS DIGI-SINGLE OUT NOW) news reaches us of another version of the song by Michelle Branch scheduled for September 1st via a limited edition Gap stores promotional CD.
