David Bowie has revealed himself as the Arcade Fire’s biggest fan.
Last week (September 8) Bowie joined the band for a supposedly one-off rendition of the Canadian band's song ‘Wake Up’ during the Fashion Rocks event at New York Radio City Music Hall , and he’s done it again.
Joining the Arcade Fire last night (September 15) at Summerstage show in New York City's Central Park , both acts played together on a version of Bowie’s ‘Queen Bitch’, then did ‘Wake Up’ again.
