I saw this show four times. On my B-day June 12 in Indianapolis and all three shows in Detroit. Great video effects with the large screen. I worked for ASCAP got to meet David. We talked about art and Elvis. David was a big art collector and born on Elvis's birthday Jan 8 1947.
Been looking for this japanese one for ages! It was up about 2 years ago n was one of my favourites but it got took off......but now it's up again! :) cheers! great song n video!
"Break down and cry....oh no, not me...you just put a big smile on my face : ) ♥♥♥ Brilliant, gorgeous, multi-talented and a great sense of humor, absolutely love it.
Never mind... yep. He had just met John and then came FAME with both of them on the track. The FU to the Mainman... that became his biggest hit to date and the first time he topped Billboard 100 Hotlist. Regarding FAME..."Bowie would later claim that he had "absolutely no idea" that the song would do so well as a single, saying "I wouldn't know how to pick a single if it hit me in the face."" With a team like that... what did he expect?! That's what happens when it comes from the heart!

Just big it up for Belew playing 'sax' on his strat. One of the best guitarists in history. Genius.
I saw this show four times. On my B-day June 12 in Indianapolis and all three shows in Detroit. Great video effects with the large screen. I worked for ASCAP got to meet David. We talked about art and Elvis. David was a big art collector and born on Elvis's birthday Jan 8 1947.
love the way he lets us sense envy for a mega Beatles track before settling for the feast of his own back catalogue
he was so amazing i wish i wouldve been born earlier to see him live
RIP
what a performance!what a man
wow! One of his finest! Thanks so much for the upload! Bless this legend! :)
I wonder why he changed it to "President Lincoln" vs "President Nixon"?
The soul-like interlude towards the end I have never heard before! Sounds good!
How I find things like this, I have no idea. God this is beautiful. Thank you for posting it.

Never mind... yep. He had just met John and then came FAME with both of them on the track. The FU to the Mainman... that became his biggest hit to date and the first time he topped Billboard 100 Hotlist.

Uma das minhas favoritas de Bowie!!!!!!!!
They pulled in just behind the bridge
He lays her down, he frowns
Gee my life's a funny thing, am I still too young?
He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything, but
All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American
Scanning life through the picture window
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Ford Mustang, but
Heaven forbid, she'll take anything
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing
Misses a step and cuts his hand, but
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries where have all Papa's heroes gone?
All night
She wants a young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American
All the way from Washington
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more?"
All night
He wants the young American
Young American, young American, he wants the young American
All right
He wants the young American
Do you remember, your President Nixon?
Do you remember, the bills you have to pay
For even yesterday?
Have you have been an un-American?
Just you and your idol singing falsetto 'bout
Leather, leather everywhere, and
Not a myth left from the ghetto
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor
In case, just in case of depression?
Sit on your hands on a bus of survivors
Blushing at all the afro-Sheilas
Ain't that close to love?
Well, ain't that poster love?
Well, it ain't that Barbie doll
Her heart's been broken just like you have
All night
All night was a young American
Young American, young American, you want the young American
All right
All right you want the young American
You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler
A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler
Black's got respect, and white's got his Soul Train
Mama's got cramps, and look at your hands ache
(I heard the news today, oh boy)
I got a suite and you got defeat
Ain't there a man you can say no more?
And, ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw?
And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging?
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die?
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces?
Ain't there one damn song that can make me
Break down and cry?1
All night
I want the young American
Young American, young American, I want the young American
All right
I want the young American, young American whoa whoa
Young American, young American
I want what you want
I want what you want
You want more
I want you
You want I
I want you
I want what you want
But you want what you want
You want I
I want you
And all I want is a young American
Young American

And all I want is the young American
(Young American, young American, I want the young American)

@THEprincessFirefly OMG, I agree - I LUV that shirt...~covet~...;P
Was that a shout out to John Lennon?
Elvis at the end.
+Eileen Castine And his hairstyle.
god
are there many japanese people who know english? as in is it common enough for a concert to make sense there? lol
Adrian Belew just didn't have it but Reeves Gabrels was Bowie's guitarist EVER UGH
N.1.
Nuorten Amerikka
No kidding... LINCOLN! Ha... freed the slaves! Yep... FREEDOM did a Bowie good!
love Bowie just not this version
Is that Adrian Belew on guitar? What a dreadful tone. The song isn't Elephant Talk. Man, he be'lows.
ElMurderachi I’m a massive Bowie fan, however I’ve never understood his use of belew! Much prefer Ronson, slick and fripp
