This is the opening track of the 1970 LP, The Man Who Sold The World. Although over the course of many years I have had various ideas and images about how "Circle" might look if
dramatized, I have not in the nearly four years I have been making music videos ever attempted to try it. I knew it would pose numerous difficulties, especially where finding and editing the appropriate film footage was concerned, so it remained on the back burner of future projects.

That is over now. For my final music video of 2016, I complete the year on its final eve, and the circle, with one of David Bowie's most imaginative and speculative works. Happy New Year's!
