Bowie and Gail Ann had such great musical energy!!!! This was a great song from her!!! 🥰 I thank you Gail Ann for your performances with Bowie!!!❤️. Love you girl!!! 😘
I found myself smiling throughout this video thinking of the wonderful bond they shared and then reality hits and I cry, remembering the loss we all share. Thank you for this beautiful piece.
I think a bit like her, David seams to be like a magic man that brings the light in the people he meets. I live a difficult life, struggling with many aspects of it in all the spheres of my life and listening to him, watching him inspires me and brings me joy and hope that one day, me too shale have a good life and be more confidant and happier than right now. I discovered him only recently and have been listening regularly to his music for about a year now. RIP and thank you for the light of your music.
Please please please, listen to Frank Sinatra, his soul was tortured in real life but his music will get you through anything, especially the sand ones, and the live shows he did when he was in his 60's and 70s. Frank Sinatra either loved you or hated you, there is no gray area in his life.
I'm truly amazed by this incredible video. I've always loved David Bowie's music but never knew of his infectious personality and wit. He is hysterical and fun. Now I know one reason I feel such a bond with him even tho he has died. Obviously the amazingly talent Gail Ann just caught his heart and vice versa. I did not know that David was such an affectionate guy. You can see how he loved to hug and be close to people he cared about. Wow, some of this just leaves me breathless. One thing I wonder about though, is all the kissing w/Gail. How did Iman feel about that? He kissed her 3x in about a minute in one of the shorts here. Not disrespecting him or her...I can see he's an affectionate man and maybe it's being caught up in the moments of sheer joy some lucky folks experience when doing what they love with someone as great and talented and loving as Gail. She looks like she's just nuts over him...altho in some videos, when he approaches her a little too strongly, she turns away and gives him a look. Oh David.
+gail katz Been a DB fan over 40 years and feel like I almost knew him personally from things that happened in my life re: David. One being, in 1980 when I met him and Iggy Pop in a Chicago dance club. I sat at his table for almost an hr., too nervous to speak plus the music was loud. When he got up to lv., I told him of my adoration of his music, what a huge fan I was, etc. I put my hand on his neck, pulled him close and kissed him on the lips.... to my surprise he kissed me back!! He was so approachable and loved his fans. But, re: Iman; she knew what he was like when she married him and a kiss is just a kiss, it doesn't have to be sexual - they both knew that. It's a European thing. I'm sure they had a blissful, happy, faithful marriage. I can't even imagine what she is going through since his passing, but doubt she'll ever fall in love w/ any other man again. I wouldn't if I were her.
+Cathy T OMG-I am so jealous, Cathy!!!!! You did the right thing to go for that kiss and to get one in return. He was gorgeous in 1980...did he have the blonde pompadour yet? WOW. What a story. I can see why you have special feelings for him....Yes, I agree on the part about Iman and I think kissing Gail so much was part of how wrapped up he got in the music and also how great she was as a musician, which enhanced his performance as well. He worked so hard up there and she didn't even join the band till he was in his late 40's, so I think he was very enamored of her talent and the good person she was. He seemed to hang with decent human beings because I think he had a lot of love in his heart. I love some of the videos of the Reality Tour that show him and the gang hanging out, being as candid as possible knowing they were being taped. Great fun except that was the heart attack tour.Thanks so much for sharing, Cathy, that warm and wonderful and exciting story about Starman. He was one incredible mind and talent.
Yes, I don't know why more isn't written about Coco; she was the only one with him from the get-go, and she was the catalyst in getting him out of the potential death trap, and into Berlin. Had she not been around, poor David wouldn't have been around. She must have really felt his loss badly.
Beautiful voice, lovely lyrics. I just love watching David and Gail together they are amazing. She must be devastated. Rest in Space Starman (nicked that from someone but it sounds so perfect)
It always hits me out of the blue. Even five years later I still cry now and then, like right now. Havent heard this song for a long time, and those beautiful, funny clips to go with it. *sob*
David Bowie a toujours su mettre le talent de Gail Ann Dorsey en valeur. Ils étaient très complices tous les deux. Je suis très triste que David ne soit plus là. J'étais très fan de lui.
David really cares for many young talents he met n brought under his wing, like placebo, Luther vandross,( n many musicians n paintings artists ) ...he knows talents hidden inside people waiting for discovered. Sure such protege relationship is magical. Especially Gail Ann's long time collaboration. He is such a generous person, a master classy act.
I can't watch this often enough and David and Gail performing Absolute Beginners...nothing I've seen compares to the two of them having fun together and singing their hearts out!
It's been 5 years now since the Starman returned to the heavens. I watched the David Bowie Celebration concert over the weekend and felt so emotional watching Gail do Strangers When we Meet. But I'm telling you, seeing this video has me on the verge of tears even more. And I've seen it before, but it just drives home the point that David was magic and he with Gail was magic. David was really not of this Earth and he infused magic into everyone and everything he touched. He is everywhere. Thanks for this video, Sanna!!
Thank you so much for posting this...the song is awesome, the visuals are awesome....David and Gail were really close and their mutual respect and admiration shines through....
Incredibly beautiful !!! I admire Gail Ann Dorsey A LOT, and her song gives me so much hope for the future, while currently living an awful present time ... I hope that one day I'll realise my dreams too and play bass and guitar with other musicians in front of a real audience ... Loneliness, isolation and fear are killing me.
Can't get enough of Gail Ann Dorsey. This video is awesome, they are both so alive and free. The song is amazing. But I can't find live performances of Gail. Want to celebrate her. Anyone know of a link to her performances and recording, please.
This is so beautiful, best tribute to the sweetest most talented man on earth, they were so perfect together, thanks for sharing, such a wonderful song and great video, : ) ♥♥♥♥♥♥
BEAUTIFUL SONG; HEARTFELT, LOVING....A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP THAT SEEMS MUTUAL AND ROOTED IN LOVE AND RESPECT.....ALAS WE CAN ALWAYS DREAM AND WONDER ...DAVID AND GAIL..SIMPLY LOVELY.
What a great partnership..saw a clip once the two of them doing a benefit for a school in new York Bowie had a beer bottle cap taped to his boot for percussion genius grazie grazie Mille ciao ciao
Until recently, this song had a certain sadness because it was reminiscing about a reasonably distant memory. Now there's hope though; maybe she'll perform in Bowie's band again. I'm glad he's back and part of that is because SHE would be back too. She was and is essential to his modern day sound.
Bowie and Gail Ann had such great musical energy!!!! This was a great song from her!!! 🥰 I thank you Gail Ann for your performances with Bowie!!!❤️. Love you girl!!! 😘
Good, very good. They match each other perfectly.
I liked watching those two on stage...what a special bond they had. No doubt she misses David a lot and still does even now...
I found myself smiling throughout this video thinking of the wonderful bond they shared and then reality hits and I cry, remembering the loss we all share. Thank you for this beautiful piece.
same here ❤️🎶😊😊😊🥺😢😞
Такая трогательная песня для нашего чудесного Дэвида. Он открыл эти магические двери не только для Гейл, но и для всех нас ❤
He look so happy around her. there's definitely love between these two. 😍😍

Gail, this is such a beautiful song - I'm sure he loved it, as much as he loved you. xo
Love all the Bowie song titles throughout; the fact they don't stick out like a sore thumb is a sign of her writing talent.
Love watching and hearing Gail play! She is classy and graceful!
They were great together! ❤️❤️
Love this son much! Her friendship with David was so beautiful you could see how much they cared for each other.
I still can't watch this without crying :-(
Same

I know Iman was the love of his life, but this lady and he obviously had a very special relationship!
yess
Je pense aussi la même idée!
wildcatter63 I'd agree - best true friends.
wildcatter63 Corrinne Coco Schwab too - hope I spelled that correctly. ♡
Yes, I don't know why more isn't written about Coco; she was the only one with him from the get-go, and she was the catalyst in getting him out of the potential death trap, and into Berlin. Had she not been around, poor David wouldn't have been around. She must have really felt his loss badly.
Beautiful voice, lovely lyrics. I just love watching David and Gail together they are amazing. She must be devastated. Rest in Space Starman (nicked that from someone but it sounds so perfect)
can't stop crying
+Corrado Savio me too. This song really brought the tears. he was just such a lovely being besides being a musical god.
It always hits me out of the blue. Even five years later I still cry now and then, like right now. Havent heard this song for a long time, and those beautiful, funny clips to go with it. *sob*

It was magical Gail. Really magical. We were all blown away by you guys for years. My salute x x
Ottima intesa personale e musicale...love Bowie forever

Thank you this is really special 💞
Linda preciosa
Tremendo homenaje.😂❤😂❤
Until recently, this song had a certain sadness because it was reminiscing about a reasonably distant memory.
Now there's hope though; maybe she'll perform in Bowie's band again. I'm glad he's back and part of that is because SHE would be back too. She was and is essential to his modern day sound.
David is an angel 👼🤣
WoW.
magnifique !!
Gail Ann
David knows
As Always
He saved my life
Just by being sweet SOUL-He Knows
Magica
I love this video and watch it all the time, over and over again! does anyone know the video/gig @ 5.20?
Beautiful 👌💜💜💜
It has been the real creative union, and also it is a pity that it has broken up
Actually he does. Gail has been his bass player since the late 90's. p.s. Gail's an old friend of mine.
