2015's METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN begins with a haunting cover by Midge Ure of David Bowie's 1970 classic, 'The Man Who Sold The World'. Why this song, and why this cover version? In this analysis video, I go into the Bowie mythology behind the song itself, and connect it to some possible interpretations for MGSV.
****************************
""The Man Who Sold the World" is a song written by English singer-songwriter David Bowie. The title track of Bowie's third studio album of the same name, it was released in November 1970 in the US and in April 1971 in the UK by Mercury Records. Produced by Tony Visconti, it was recorded at Trident and Advision Studios in London in May 1970, towards the end of the album's sessions; Bowie recorded his vocal on the final day of mixing for the album, reflecting his generally dismissive attitude during the sessions. Musically, it is based around a "circular" guitar riff from Mick Ronson. Its lyrics are cryptic and evocative, being inspired by numerous poems including "Antigonish" by William Hughes Mearns. Bowie's vocals are heavily "phased" throughout and have been described as "haunting". "
