    I had the absolute privilege of seeing Bowie in NYC just a few days before this show. He had scheduled 3 shows at the Roseland ballroom, a small venue, to warm up for this show at Glastonbury. He was in fact quite ill and ended up cancelling the first 2 shows. So I got to see his only show in a venue that holds 3000 people, there were celebrities everywhere and people scalping tickets outside for 10 times the ticket price.
    He told us not to tell his doctor he was performing since he was supposed to be on vocal rest. Despite that he put on an amazing show with a few outfit changes and a ton of hits. He closed with Ziggy Stardust which he apparently hadn't performed in a long time. It was a magical night and I am thankful to this day to have experienced his brilliance in person.

    In the late 60's and much of the 70's, Bowie sang in higher ranges most of the time. He had at least a 4-octave vocal range back then along with masterful control of every little nuance of his voice. He could be operatic at times. This video was recorded in 2000. Bowie was in his early 50's. Check him out in his early 20's. Either way, David Bowie is the best of all-time.

    Thanks for this reaction/analysis. I seem to remember Bowie had a bad cold at the time of this performance and was relying on his vocal mannerisms more than usual. He was still smoking at the time as well. There are more pristine performances out there but you get a lot of personality in this version! Thanks again.

    I think more often than people think the risky notes come when an artist has gains a footing in the industry or with the audience. With Bowie he always had that style, but taking your style to it´s maximum forcing the audience to really listen to the complete arrangement is rare or difficult to navigate.

    Related to him creating Heroes next to the Berlin Wall, he also made a German language version of the song, Helden. I only knew about the English language version until I picked up the Sound + Vision box set (which was released when he was doing his tour of the same name). That box set includes a lot of his best work up to that point, but he specifically included Helden as the representative version of Heroes on that set.

    I actually was there! We only drove down to see this in a clapped out Austin Allegro, that car was really old 10 years before. Maybe 20? Lol. We had some friends working security and after parking on a security guards foot, ( on hill and brakes were shocking), we found a way in! Gotta say though that first half of set had us all rocking but then switched to newer, bit dreary stuff, and lost the crowd a bit? The best bit was on way back to the car, thankfully still where we left it. Nearly everyone else had gone for a piss but I ,walking ahead, had to cross a wooden bridge, over what was once a scream but now a sewer. There was this guy, totally out if it, welding a chrome table leg about like a sword/light saber! I thought to myself "Bloody Hell! I'm in a scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail? So I stopped start if the bridge and puffed on cigarette. Light saber guy walks across to me and I said alright mate? What's with the light saber? Unintelligible stuff but I heard him say bashing people! I said what just any people or bad people? He nah only bad guys. Ok so am I OK to cross the bridge of doom? He yeah mate you're cool. Thanks. My parting shot was? I wouldn't be so sure about the next bunch to cross here though? Bowie was okay but that dude on the bridge made Glasto for me.

    what year was this performance? his hair was much longer than when i saw him in the 90s with Nine Inch Nails. what an amazing show *that* was. they never stopped playing. to transition from Bowie to NiN, band members would just swap out during Bowie's songs, until all Bowie's band was gone and it was just Bowie and NiN, playing Bowie's music, minus Trent. then Trent came out, and they one song together, and Bowie left the stage until it came time for the encores. it was truly theatrical and amazing.

That was NOT what made the song in particular so popular, and the artists will often do live variations based on where they feel/think they are going, or (sadly) sometimes just do a rote performance that anyone can see they really don't care too much about anymore.
