"Lady Grinning Soul" is a beautiful ballad written by the legendary British musician David Bowie. It was released in 1973 as part of his album Aladdin Sane. The song was added at the last minute and replaced the "sax version" of "John, I'm Only Dancing" to close the album. Bowie's muse for this song was Claudia Lennear, a famous American soul singer he had met in 1972. Although it was rumored for years that the song was about Lennear, it wasn't until after Bowie's death in 2016 that Lennear confirmed it. Bowie called her in 2014 and told her that the song was indeed written about him. "Lady Grinning Soul" is a haunting, melancholy song that showcases Bowie's mastery of songwriting and beautiful ballads. It remains one of his most beautiful and enduring songs.
