Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	David Bowie in the 1972 music video for his 1969 song "Space Oddity"
Author or copyright owner	Mick Rock
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYYRH4apXDo
Date of publication	1972
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Space Oddity
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	To illustrate Bowie performing the song in the midst of his glam rock phase as an artist, performing a song that he released three years prior. As such, he was disinterested in the idea of shooting a video for an older song, which reflected in his performance.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	The software or website from which the screenshot is taken is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free image is not possible.
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1)	Unlike the song's original music video, this video was shot at the end of 1972, when Bowie was in the middle of his glam rock phase as an artist. This image showcases Bowie's disinterest in the shoot, as well as his exhaustion from touring, recording, and contributing to other artists' projects throughout the year
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Will be used in this article only
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The use of a low resolution screenshot from software or a website will not impact the commercial viability of the software or site.
