Bowie has at least 7 different genres / phases ......1 Early Bowie (Changes,Space Oddity, Life on Mars /. 2 Glam Rock Bowie (All of Ziggy Stardust ) 3 Soul Man Bowie (Young Americans, Golden Years) 4 Industrial Bowie Thin White Duke (Station to Station ) 5 New Romantic Bowie (Heroes, Ashes to Ashes) 6 Rock Star Bowie (Lets Dance, Modern Love) 7 Later Bowie BlackStar. Etc.... I could easily threw a few more phases and key songs in,...... Let just say He is one of the most creative musicians ever.
Bowie was the very epitome of genius. Performing live in front of an audience was where he felt most at home and as we can all see here, his relationship with his band and the crowd were always incredible. This was Berlin , so the references to the wall were very poignant for the entire audience. So sad he's no longer with us, but the fruits of his undoubted genius will be with us for ever, thank God. RIP David. 🙋♂
"They will be studying David Bowie one hundred years from now." I don't know, the way mass market music goes, there will be like 10 peole listening to Bowie and similar caliber stuff, and the majority will be studying Drake or some such shit

He burst on the scene in the '60s, rode out the '70s with no holds barred approach to life just as the '70s were, guided us through the '80s with elegance and style, was a stable turn-to performer in the '90s, gave us consistency through the '00s, entertained us even in the '10s and the whole world went to shit after he died, proving he and Petty were holding our musical world on their shoulders, with no one taking their place after their passing. He is missed, and yet another legend to look forward to hearing, jamming with, and being elevated by in the afterlives. 'Fame' is a song with a grove that will tickle your bassist fingers and your soul-filled heart.
You should explore most of the songs of his Ziggy Stardust (The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars) album first. Five Years, Moonage Daydream, Ziggy Stardust, Hang on to Yourself, Suffragette City. It's what really made him a rock icon.
Just a couple of chords, simple back and forth arrangement, easy instrumentation, a song that basically goes nowhere… Bowie turns it into an anthem for the ages.
Millie: you have been gifted to go down the rabbit hole of David Bowie. Lots to do. You will love it. Since you love a good riff, try Rebel Rebel. Just a start.
Millie I could never hate you. I pity you that you have had to endure life up to this point without Bowie in your life. I envy you the journey you can now embark on. Great reaction!!
You need to listen to the studio version. Robert Fripp calibrated the studio floor so he could play the feedback frequency by moving to predetermined marks on the floor. The studio was just across the road from the Berlin wall and this song was inspired by the view from the studio window.
@@ХокХоксон He is not given credit as a "featured peformer" which is required to be given a credit on the song. According to Music Radar: "So the current situation appears that Fripp needs to be given that status (PPL status) before the Phonographic Performance Limited (PPL) music licensing company can recognise him and that the accreditation required is down to the Bowie estate."
@@EdwardGregoryNYC Looks like I don't know something special about credit details , at least I see the credit *Lead Guitar - Robert Fripp* on the record sleeve. Is it not enough?
Love the reaction. I always loved this song and the studio version is really good due to the vocal effects they achieved by using 3 different mic placements on different parts of the song. The back story on this song is really cool, inspired by blossoming love in the shadow of the Berlin Wall.
So many songs and so many different sounds Space Oddity, Ziggy Stardust, John, I'm only dancing, Fame, Suffragett City, Diamond Dogs, Jean Genie. Modern Love. Thats just a few to choose from
Good tune Silly Millie! You pronounce his last name Bow-e, like bow and arrows. I think you did his Space Oddity song earlier and stated it was spacy. Lots to dive in. Rebel Rebel, Changes and Suffragette City are just a few early ones in his career you need to checkout! 😎
David Bowie! ICONIC!! LEGENDARY!!! His BEST Song...Ever; My FAVORITE Bowie song! You are right Millie; He has influenced sooo many artists since SPACE ODDITY in July 1969. I love him....What an immense and varied song catalogue to explore! **REBEL REBEL** **YOUNG AMERICANS** and **LET'S DANCE** for starters. I'm on your Bowie journey Millie! Have a great one
hi millie. david bowie was one of the greatest ever and his rabbit-hole is very deep. and he wasn´t called "the chamaeleon of rock´n roll" for no reason. lot´s of stuff to hear and to suggest. "suffragette city" or "ziggy stardust" perhaps. my favourite ones are "sweet thing" and "big brother", cause they are on the first bowie album I bought. (as a twelve year old, when it came out in 1974., you can do the math.)
You should listen to the studio version (of the album) which lasts 6 minutes and came out in 1977, it is a song with a unique production and sound, Bowie's interpretation there is the best you can hear
Ashes to Ashes must be the Next Bowie song......IS the second part of Space Oddity. Tells the true history of Mayor Tom......and the video clip is a masterpiece
He moved to West Berlin, in 1977 to escape drugs in Los Angelas, and got his fellow music friend Iggy Pop, of The Stooges to join him, attempt to sober up -in the walled in City. (yes they traveled by train into the USSR, through Poland. David and Iggy recorded some in France and Switzerland too between (1977-'80). The line "two lovers, standing by the Wall" was what he saw from Hanna studio, in West Berlin (one of his production team, married, having an affair -Bowie would later reveal) Heroes, defying The Berlin Wall! (I went to West Berlin in 1985, and again in 1990, and 1993 so saw the Wall up, and torn down. I became a fan of Bowie in 1980, after "Ashes to Ashes" -and treasure his Berlin albums. Iggy Pop recorded some of his quality solo work at that time. When U2 was at a creative impasse at the end of 1989, they decided as fans of Bowie, and their current producer Brian Eno (who had been in Roxy Music), who produced three albums for Bowie, and Pop, and Talking Heads, etc. U2 went to Berlin, as it was going to rebuilding, German unification, at Hansa Studios, to record "Aching Baby" in 1990.
Hi Millie,great reaction this morning:)David Bowie had lots of good stuff,even the Hollywood Vampires did a good cover of heroes a few years ago which Johnny Depp sang vocals on,have a great day:)
Hi Millie, you must listen to a song from Bowie called 'Hallo Spaceboy' and 'The Hearts Filthy Lesson'! Next please do 'Come On' by Oktaf Kanis, thanks Millie 🙌🏻
Okay, no hate... 🥰🥰🥰 "Space Oddity", this song you have to hear And of course, POLICE came later, but Sting is still great. I recommend you "Under Pressure", David duet with Annie Lennox, concert "Live Aid", 1992.
Cool reaction Millie, Bowie will not leave us all, because his songs are still alive in our cool ears! Next reaction please react to Come On by Oktaf Kanis, thank you Millie :)
The studio version of this is full on from the beginning, but David rearranged it for many of his live performances with this more laid back start. You have so much wonderful stuff of his to explore. I'd suggest Stay or Station To Station as great live tracks to check out. Also, Gail Ann Dorsey is a great bassist and singer/songwriter in her own right.
Millie, Millie, Millie. You listened to David Bowie two weeks ago, Space Oddity. I know. After listening to so much music we tend to sorta lose our place. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
David Bowie was awesome and a true ikon and musical chameleon, this is one of his best covers ever of a great John Lennon tune. Some of my favorite Bowie is back in his Ziggy Stardust era from 69 to 73 with the Spiders from Mars, who featured a volcanic Mick Ronson on lead guitar. Try Moonage Daydream, live on his Ziggy Stardust tour, that concert movie in 1973 is pure gold. Some of the Best Bowie, Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Hi, Millie! If you want to hear David Bowie's range and that bluesy feel in his voice, go to "Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (Reprise)" studio version. Get the one without pauses between songs, it's a bit shorter, like 8 min and something. The live versions to this one are not that good because Bowie was going through a rough time with his cocaine addiction and his voice was rather hoarse during that tour. Another bluesy one from the same album is "We Are the Dead". They are from the album "Diamond Dogs" and David did a lot on that album: vocals, guitars, saxophone, production.
Millie, here are a few Bowie tracks for you. It's an incomplete list - I gave up. "Space Oddity", "The Prettiest Star" (1970 single), "The Man Who Sold the World", "Changes", "Life on Mars?", "Five Years", "Starman", "Ziggy Stardust", "Watch That Man", "Drive-In Saturday", "The Jean Genie", "Rebel Rebel", "Young Americans", "Fame", "Golden Years", "TVC 15", "Sound and Vision", "Boys Keep Swinging", "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)", "Ashes to Ashes", "Modern Love", "Let's Dance" etc. But before you listen to those here's YOUR homework. Listen to the full length studio version of "Heroes" ua-cam.com/video/uC2lvJ0Xg7M/v-deo.html and then how it was produced by Tony Visconti (the producer) ua-cam.com/video/7Q2scPrc1WE/v-deo.html
back in the late 70ies he came on the stage as Ziggy Stardust now that ... that was a trip .....just look up Ziggy Stardust first time I ever saw anything gender bender
It was composed during his Berlin yrs... he was walking with Visconti and his wife passing the Berlin Wall - thinking of people divided by that... and struggling with his heroine addiction - the song was also a totle song for the film "Christiane F. - the children from the Zoo station", for which he was performing again as it showed exactly the life in Berlin back thrn... There is so much more behind this song
Bowie, Dylan, Beatles and Stones.....the 4 Major names in Musical History.....Nobody can match their catalogue of legendary songs.......sons of Bowie?: Life on mars, Changes, the man Who sold the world, Golden Years, Lets dance, Ashes to Ashes, Starman, Absolut beginners, .....and the list go on and on
starts off with him goofing around.. a little guitar and him talking the lyrics casually and somehow ends up as a rock anthem - amazing trick Mr Bowie...amazing
I fell in love with Bowie the first time I saw him live in the mid 70s. When my daughter was an infant- months old, the only thing that would calm her down was his song Let’s Dance. I took her to see him when she was about 6. We had the best time. Check out more…my favorite is FASHION, but he has so many great songs. Suffragette City, Jeanie, Fame…so many. ❤️U Millie! ☮️❤️😎 and rock n roll. My personal favorite band is YES, followed by Alice In Chains. You are a beautiful soul.
The whole group really takes their time sliding into this classic and ramping up the groove all the way to 11. Really neat compared to the album version.
My favorite Bowie song and performance Gail Ann Dorsey just slays that bass line. She’s sooooo cool. And that cherry red Gibson Double Cut is gorgeous in doing and looks
For another great Bowie performance, plus it's a duet! Trent Reznor and Bowie performing Hurt on stage. Reznor, of NIN, is a huge fan of Bowie, and you can see the joy he has performing one of his signature songs with an inspiration of his.
I still find it astounding so many younger people have missed these gigantic songs of the past-----Try Absolute Beginners also in a smallish venue which he is very good at. The span of his work in mood is very very wide ,, Absolute Beginners remains on the lighter side..
Before even getting to the music, I am VERY impressed that you are doing the British pronunciation of his last name, as BOW-E -- the BOW, as in the Bow Wow of a dog. Over here in the states it was always Bow-ie, as in BOW (as in a bow & arrow, & EEE)
Hello from Germany! This song comes from his time in Berlin! It is also part of a German film based on true events. The film is about drug addiction among young people who meet every day at the Zoo train station in Berlin and prostitute themselves to get their heroin! It is available as a book with the title: "Christiane F we children from Bahnhof Zoo"! We recommend! I've been a fan of David Bowie since the '70s. Our birthdays were on the same day! I always sent him a postcard on his birthday and always got one in return! RIP David Bowie, my childhood idol! We children from Bahnhof Zoo, as a book and as a film, were taught in schools in Germany! Kind regards, Nephilim
I am a big Bowie fan for many many years. He is one of a king. Another voice that will blow you away is Dimash. You need to listen to S.O.S., Stranger and Opera 2 to start and you will be hooked.
Hi Milli. Im new to your channel but you're reacting on my favourite Bowie song, so i just had to take a look and I'm glad I have. You dont have to do a video of it but have a look at my favourite performance of this song from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. He performed it with Mick Ronson on guitar who was one of Bowie's backing band, The Spiders From Mars. Sadly Mick has gone now too. Thanks for a great video. I will be subscribing too.❤
So many people didn't "get" Bowie because from one album to the next, his style & sound changed. But that fact is exactly why he is now considered a musical genius. Even with his popular songs, he re-arranged them on live concerts. As he said himself, "I get bored easily". Millie, watch this video when Bowie was in his 50s...he looks back on his life. A quiet song, but I love the video. ua-cam.com/video/gfOKDB0ChQk/v-deo.html

*Blackstar
Thank you @@bobwoolerOriGinal
And really early Bowie... Listen to the record Deram Antholgy. It is a compilation album from his early, a bit odd, years
What about “I’m Afraid of Americans” by Bowie and Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails? So underrated.
I wouldn't consider his Berlin yrs romantic
Bowie is practically a genre of his own, he was always ten years ahead of everyone! A rabbit worth checking out!🙂
You've struck a vein of pure gold with Bowie. I envy you, getting to hear his greatness for the 1st time 😃. A true legend, gone too soon.
Bowie was the very epitome of genius. Performing live in front of an audience was where he felt most at home and as we can all see here, his relationship with his band and the crowd were always incredible.

a few minutes ago i read that SRV is on David Bowie's 'Let's Dance'
Mark my words. They will be studying David Bowie one hundred years from now.
Not just a legend. A prodigy. A once in a hundred years icon.
:)...I just wrote he'll be dissected and appreciated by music lovers for a THOUSAND years...

The greatest rock song ever sung by the greatest rock star of all time.
The Bowie album “Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” just won 3rd place in the best album of the seventies on a Facebook survey.
Hell yes! I love that so much! Thanks for that.
Think you'll have lots of fun exploring his songs. He's a great singer/songwriter with a deep catalogue.
He burst on the scene in the '60s, rode out the '70s with no holds barred approach to life just as the '70s were, guided us through the '80s with elegance and style, was a stable turn-to performer in the '90s, gave us consistency through the '00s, entertained us even in the '10s and the whole world went to shit after he died, proving he and Petty were holding our musical world on their shoulders, with no one taking their place after their passing.

Yes, Ziggy is Dope! Best Bowie for me. Mick Ronson!
Just a couple of chords, simple back and forth arrangement, easy instrumentation, a song that basically goes nowhere…
Bowie turns it into an anthem for the ages.
Don't talk crap.
And don't forget the fantastic guitar solo created by Robert (King Crimson) Fripp.
"Young Americans" from the Serious Moonlight tour is fantastic.
Millie: you have been gifted to go down the rabbit hole of David Bowie. Lots to do. You will love it. Since you love a good riff, try Rebel Rebel. Just a start.
Must. Watch. Labyrinth. It is my childhood. It is a David Bowie and Muppet musical.
Suffragette City is a great tune as well
Millie I could never hate you. I pity you that you have had to endure life up to this point without Bowie in your life. I envy you the journey you can now embark on. Great reaction!!

I count myself as so lucky to have seen him live at Glastonbury 2000, terrific outdoor gig, hit after hit from a legend.

So many songs and so many different sounds
Space Oddity, Ziggy Stardust, John, I'm only dancing, Fame, Suffragett City, Diamond Dogs, Jean Genie. Modern Love. Thats just a few to choose from
The Man is a legend. There are too many songs to name, Starman, Aladdin Sane, Life on Mars. I could gone on forever.
Good tune Silly Millie! You pronounce his last name Bow-e, like bow and arrows. I think you did his Space Oddity song earlier and stated it was spacy. Lots to dive in. Rebel Rebel, Changes and Suffragette City are just a few early ones in his career you need to checkout! 😎
It's been 34 years since the wall came down. Fewer and fewer remember that there once was an East and a West Berlin (and Germany).
I grew up with Bowie, Sweet, Queen etc. Great music, great times, 70s.👌🕺❤️

we were SO blessed that he decided to perform the entire (brilliant, and forever under-rated) "Low" album. Look for it. It is so amazing.

Ashes to Ashes must be the Next Bowie song......IS the second part of Space Oddity. Tells the true history of Mayor Tom......and the video clip is a masterpiece
Yes! Ashes to Ashes! Bowie for me stands alone. He truly was a trailblazer in his beginnings.
"I'm Afraid of Americans" is one of my favorites.
He moved to West Berlin, in 1977 to escape drugs in Los Angelas, and got his fellow music friend Iggy Pop, of The Stooges to join him, attempt to sober up -in the walled in City. (yes they traveled by train into the USSR, through Poland. David and Iggy recorded some in France and Switzerland too between (1977-'80).

The Thin White Duke. Bowie singing this at Live Aid was a great moment.

Hi Millie, you must listen to a song from Bowie called 'Hallo Spaceboy' and 'The Hearts Filthy Lesson'! Next please do 'Come On' by Oktaf Kanis, thanks Millie 🙌🏻
Robert Fripp from King Crimson did the guitar work on the original "Heroes".
Robert Fripp is awesome! Been a King Crimson fan since the first album came out in 1969. She should do Epitaph off that album, amazing stuff!
Just had The Court of the Crimson King. Liked a lot of their stuff though.
@@kenlawless7247 I really like the John Wetton era with Bill Buford on drums, those 3 albums are gold.
vic I think you should be a guest on Millie's channel. My first suggestion is 21st Century Schizoid Man"@@vicprovost2561
Check out David Bowie and Bing Crosby, Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy.
Loved your reaction
Okay, no hate... 🥰🥰🥰
"Space Oddity", this song you have to hear
And of course, POLICE came later, but Sting is still great.
I recommend you "Under Pressure", David duet with Annie Lennox, concert "Live Aid", 1992.
Millie! Do a reaction to "Starman" from David Bowie and "Starlight" from Oktaf Kanis 🙌🏻
Starlight! Never never never get bored of this song! ❤
Bowie is the one that changed everything, It's like Da'Vinci of Music. The fountain of inspiration
Je t'adores Bowie et moi c'est depuis le début . tu as compris
Cool reaction Millie, Bowie will not leave us all, because his songs are still alive in our cool ears! Next reaction please react to Come On by Oktaf Kanis, thank you Millie :)
I’d put this song in his top 50.
Keep diving into the Bowie rabbit hole!
So many great songs by Bowie but this still is my favorite!! There's just something so personal about it!!
Let's Dance is a great Bowie song with guitar great Stevie Ray Vaughn
Ziggy Stardust - anything from that album
The studio version of this is full on from the beginning, but David rearranged it for many of his live performances with this more laid back start. You have so much wonderful stuff of his to explore. I'd suggest Stay or Station To Station as great live tracks to check out. Also, Gail Ann Dorsey is a great bassist and singer/songwriter in her own right.
5 pretty pretty good starting songs could be: Rock and Roll Suicide, Space Oddity, Lady Grinning Soul, Stay and Ashes To Ashes👌
Your smile said it all. I felt that.
Hahaha it did and thanks 😊 💜
Millie, Millie, Millie. You listened to David Bowie two weeks ago, Space Oddity.
I know. After listening to so much music we tend to sorta lose our place.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is a Bowie song. Great as Lennon was I don't see the connection?
@@paulus7041 My bad, was thinking of Lennons Working Class Hero, wrong tune, too many songs in my 68 year old head@

Millie, here are a few Bowie tracks for you. It's an incomplete list - I gave up.
"Space Oddity", "The Prettiest Star" (1970 single), "The Man Who Sold the World", "Changes", "Life on Mars?", "Five Years", "Starman", "Ziggy Stardust", "Watch That Man", "Drive-In Saturday", "The Jean Genie", "Rebel Rebel", "Young Americans", "Fame", "Golden Years", "TVC 15", "Sound and Vision", "Boys Keep Swinging", "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)", "Ashes to Ashes", "Modern Love", "Let's Dance" etc.
But before you listen to those here's YOUR homework. Listen to the full length studio version of "Heroes" ua-cam.com/video/uC2lvJ0Xg7M/v-deo.html and then how it was produced by Tony Visconti (the producer) ua-cam.com/video/7Q2scPrc1WE/v-deo.html
Halo Space Boy, New Killer Star I'll Survive (Your Naked Eyes)
back in the late 70ies he came on the stage as Ziggy Stardust now that ... that was a trip .....just look up Ziggy Stardust first time I ever saw anything gender bender
You have just witnessed greatness by a true master!! Saw him several times in the late sixties thru the seventies.
Simplemente, el mejor!!
David Bowie! Genius!!!
Yesssss 💜
I think of the dispute he had with SRV over a music video in which Bowie portrayed himself playing the guitar line, when actually it was SRV.
Think of this song in the context of the Berlin wall before it fell!!
You've reacted to "Space Oddity" from Bowie,you know him😂his face at least 😅
Hi!! these are reuploads from my streams, I actually reacted to this one first then Space Oddity
Space Oddity
ua-cam.com/video/iYYRH4apXDo/v-deo.html
It was composed during his Berlin yrs... he was walking with Visconti and his wife passing the Berlin Wall - thinking of people divided by that... and struggling with his heroine addiction - the song was also a totle song for the film "Christiane F. - the children from the Zoo station", for which he was performing again as it showed exactly the life in Berlin back thrn...
There is so much more behind this song
great David R.I.P.
Bowie, Dylan, Beatles and Stones.....the 4 Major names in Musical History.....Nobody can match their catalogue of legendary songs.......sons of Bowie?: Life on mars, Changes, the man Who sold the world, Golden Years, Lets dance, Ashes to Ashes, Starman, Absolut beginners, .....and the list go on and on
This is my favourite version of a wonderful song. RIP to David and Mick Ronson. You are sorely missed by so many of us.
starts off with him goofing around.. a little guitar and him talking the lyrics casually and somehow ends up as a rock anthem - amazing trick Mr Bowie...amazing
He is amazing lol hahaha funny too 💜
Chills!!!!!!!!!!
The white Duke of Blues👍🎶🥁🎸🎤🇬🇧

My favorite Bowie song and performance
Gail Ann Dorsey just slays that bass line.
She’s sooooo cool.
And that cherry red Gibson Double Cut is gorgeous in doing and looks
For another great Bowie performance, plus it's a duet!
Trent Reznor and Bowie performing Hurt on stage.
Reznor, of NIN, is a huge fan of Bowie, and you can see the joy he has
performing one of his signature songs with an inspiration of his.
El único Dios en el que valía la pena creer....
El gran " Duke blanco", el Hombre de las estrellas....❤❤❤❤
The world needs more David Bowie.
motorhead did a great cover of this!!
One classy gentleman .I am happy saw him twice in my life time and actually had the privilege to ask him for autograph on my copy of Fame....
He sang this at the Concert for New York City, after 9-11. it was quite emotional.
My era , probably one of the most influential musicians socially and musically
It's Bow-ie, like bow in your hair.
It's a new world that is opening to you, girl.
Millie ... Is a hero 😊 !
Thank lol 😆 💜
I still find it astounding so many younger people have missed these gigantic songs of the past-----Try Absolute Beginners also in a smallish venue which he is very good at. The span of his work in mood is very very wide ,, Absolute Beginners remains on the lighter side..
What an amazing performance
Millie, you are right... A true "Rock Anthem" !!
Great reaction Millie! Please check out Rebel Rebel next.
You just watched his best video Millie he put his all into it best concert I ever saw David was the best showman
Yeah, we can be heroes, just for one day! Next do a reaction to "COME ON - Oktaf Kanis" 🔥
Before even getting to the music, I am VERY impressed that you are doing the British pronunciation of his last name, as BOW-E -- the BOW, as in the Bow Wow of a dog. Over here in the states it was always Bow-ie, as in BOW (as in a bow & arrow, & EEE)
Hello from Germany! This song comes from his time in Berlin! It is also part of a German film based on true events. The film is about drug addiction among young people who meet every day at the Zoo train station in Berlin and prostitute themselves to get their heroin! It is available as a book with the title: "Christiane F we children from Bahnhof Zoo"! We recommend! I've been a fan of David Bowie since the '70s. Our birthdays were on the same day! I always sent him a postcard on his birthday and always got one in return! RIP David Bowie, my childhood idol! We children from Bahnhof Zoo, as a book and as a film, were taught in schools in Germany! Kind regards, Nephilim
Dude was the coolest performer ever..
Bowie is pronounced "Boh-wee", to rhyme with doughy or Joey.
Bowie would have absolutely loved your hoodie! He was made of stardust after all.
R.I.P. Legend ❤😢
Great reaction and great version of it...
I am a big Bowie fan for many many years. He is one of a king. Another voice that will blow you away is Dimash. You need to listen to S.O.S., Stranger and Opera 2 to start and you will be hooked.
Hi Milli. Im new to your channel but you're reacting on my favourite Bowie song, so i just had to take a look and I'm glad I have.
You dont have to do a video of it but have a look at my favourite performance of this song from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. He performed it with Mick Ronson on guitar who was one of Bowie's backing band, The Spiders From Mars. Sadly Mick has gone now too.
Thanks for a great video. I will be subscribing too.❤
You listening to to the best version...
Enjoy he's one of the best🎉🎉🎉
I am not a big fan of Bowie, but this song is sooooooo good
So many people didn't "get" Bowie because from one album to the next, his style & sound changed. But that fact is exactly why he is now considered a musical genius. Even with his popular songs, he re-arranged them on live concerts. As he said himself, "I get bored easily". Millie, watch this video when Bowie was in his 50s...he looks back on his life. A quiet song, but I love the video. ua-cam.com/video/gfOKDB0ChQk/v-deo.html
