  9. Some people think he had different coloured eyes but really he had one dilated pupil because he got punched by his friend at school.

    Once when he toured, you could phone up and vote for a song he would play live. The winner was The Laughing Gnome. He didn't play it!

    His son who he called Zowie Bowie changed his name to Duncan Jones and he is a famous film director.
