Trey Songz*covered David Bowie's classic "Life on Mars?"*for an upcoming episode of HBO ****** Vinyl.*His version, though slightly more stylized, stays pretty close to the original, and it pairs nicely with his signature croon.
SEE ALSO: In 1964 David Bowie formed a society to defend men with long hair (http://mashable.com/2016/03/17/david-bowie-long-hair/)
Songz was "ho**red" to be asked, he tells Complex (http://www.complex.com/music/2016/03/trey-songz-new-song-premiere-life-on-mars-david-bowie-cover?utm_campaign=musictw&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social). Bowie's recent death made it all the more important that he get it just right.*
"After learning of his passing I knew that this was a special moment in time," he says. "This cover became my personal tribute to David."
