    I have been a fan of this band, and this video ever since it came out years ago. I had taken my kids to the movie, Godzilla, when it came out in the 90's (1998). And one night when I was channel surfing, during the same year or next, (not sure), I came across the MTV Music Awards on television just in time where they announced that the Wallflowers were about to perform. I patiently waited through the several severely long sponsored commercials, and this performance immediately started when the show came back on air.
    Til' this day, I am still awestruck at this live performance, many times with an open mouth, while watching this video reminiscent from that one night, (not so long ago) ;-)
    To begin with, the sound crew for this venue deserves a lot of credit. But the orchestra was just truly amazing, and shot this song into the stratosphere. And the synchronization between them and the Wallflowers is what makes this song and video one of my most favorite of all time. I am truly grateful to have experienced this live performance, even though I was not there in person. Just awesome!

    Nunca me esqueço quando ouvi essa música a primeira vez, chorei. Justamente em 1998 e agora em 2023 me causa a mesma emoção. Que David Bowie esteja em um ótimo lugar e não fique chateado porque essa música está eternizada brilhantemente pelo The Wallflowers. ❤

    I am not here to comment on a competition between the Master Bowie and the Walflowers. No.
    Yaakov Dylan is an extraordinary musician, who came from a great legendary father’s motivator.
    The irrepressible Bob
    Dylan.
    And Nothing to say about my Darling David Bowie and his brilliant career and fantastic musical legacy..
    May his beautiful Soul be resting easy in the light of God 🙌🏼.
    Magnificent version!

    The 90's marked us all... that were not marked already. The ink on our souls provides us so much that we all know we could never truely voice it, but nothing on the face of this earth will ever prevent us from the feelings and experiences of it. A toast to all, and those yet to be marked as we are, I love all of humanity and hope and pray we all can be our own heroes.

    I believe David Bowie's original version was recorded in a large hall, which is why it had that open echo vacant feel that just took it to another level. This particular cover somehow captures some of the essence of the original. I miss David, it's like I've had a sickness in my stomach ever since I learnt of his death..

    This is one of the RARE song remakes that actually turns out to be better than the original. No disrespect to Bowie. Thank you David Bowie for writing and composing a great song. I just prefer this version, it's more up-tempo and the song seems to have a better flow with the Wallflowers.

    • @darylmoore6711
      @darylmoore6711 9 років тому +14

      I like Bowie's version too. I never said I didn't, I just prefer the Wallflowers version opposed to Bowie's. It's one of the few Wallflowers songs I liked. Just my opinion. 95% of the time, I prefer the original. This is one of the rare cases where I prefer the remake. My opinion.

    • @zigomanis18
      @zigomanis18 9 років тому +13
