no reason to apologize or stop commenting!

talking about Bolan, wasn't Lady Stardust originally supposed to be about Marc Bolan and the original demo version titled He Was Alright (A Song for Marc)?

also, throughout his career he kept bringing out their music and helping bands or artists who were interesting but not recognized enough. and relatively recently he apparently played a part in the success of Arcade Fire.
