We were playing a music trivia game and the question was "what planet did david bowie sing about life on?"

And my buddy says "earth?" Lmao

The song is called life on Mars, but it's all about Earthly things, so I reckon he was singing about Earth problems and only contrasting it to the highbrow idea of life on Mars

Looking at the lyrics again it seems to mostly be about a film, or films in general

I didn't write the question. It's a trivia game that came in a box.
