Full circle

There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy , who decided to write a memorable song for some friends of his who had formed a group

All The Young Dudes - Mott The Hoople



...who rose to fame and fortune after that, and decided to have some other friends open a tour for them, which they did and noted in a song of their own....

Now I’m Here - Queen



...and who decided, when they rose to fame and fortune in their own turn, to return the favor by providing backup for the lead singer of the original group....

You Nearly Did Me In - Ian Hunter (with Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor)



...who got back together one night with that enchanted boy to pay homage to the good old fashioned lover boy among them who wasn’t there anymore.

All The Young Dudes - Ian Hunter and David Bowie et al, (Freddie Mercury tribute concert)
