The Jean Genie, released in 1972 as the lead single from Aladdin Sane, is a gritty glam rock track that blends Bowie’s fascination with American culture and blues influences. The song’s raw energy and catchy riff made it one of his most iconic tracks. Directed by Mick Rock, the music video features a mix of concert footage and street scenes in New York, highlighting Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust persona alongside Cyrinda Foxe, who also appears in the video.
