This day in music history.

January 27, 1971, David Bowie arrived in the US for the first time. However he couldn't play live because of work permit restrictions. He did wear a dress to the press conference, prompting one of the locals to say "Jesus Christ, look at that faggot, we ought to kick his ass" when Bowie heard this he ran away like a little girl. In 1972 Bowie declared that he was bisexual , to which everyone said "oh, we would have never guessed."
Cracked Actor by David Bowie
I've come on a few years from my Hollywood Highs
The best of the last, the cleanest star they ever had
I'm stiff on my legend, the films that I made
Forget that I'm fifty cause you just got paid
Crack, baby, crack, show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack, is that all that you feel
Suck, baby, suck,give me your head
Before you start professing that you're knocking me dead
You caught yourself a trick down on Sunset and Vine
But since he pinned you baby
you're a porcupine
You sold me illusions for a sack full of cheques
You've made a bad connection 'cause I just want your sex
