“He’s in the best-selling show”
Following Wednesday’s broadcast of the season premiere of American Horror Story: Freak Show in the US (which featured Jessica Lange’s Character, Elsa Mars, singing Life On Mars), online interest in the original Bowie version has greatly increased.
In recognition of that fact, BuzzFeed had this to say; “Although it’s long since earned its status as a classic rock track, David Bowie’s 1973 single “Life on Mars?” – taken belatedly from his 1971 album, Hunky Dory – has suddenly received a boost in popularity thanks to its inclusion in the first episode of FX’s American Horror Story: Freak Show.”
