Regrettably, it took Freddie Mercury’s passing for Bowie to first perform their song “Under Pressure” at the 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute Show.
Bowie worked on the song with Queen in the recording studio, but they never performed it together in front of an audience. Annie Lennox filled in for the late Queen lead singer in their duet.

Bowie's Granddaughter
Duncan Jones has named his daughter Zowie, the name his late father, David Bowie, called him. Duncan first announced his daughter’s name in a heartfelt tweet, in which he mentions his legendary father.
He wrote. “It didn’t occur to me until now that when I named my daughter Zowie I would ultimately be writing “To Zowie, from Dad,” exactly like my dad did for me when I was little.”
