I never even thought he retained his Ziggy Stardust look by this period until I saw this video. I'd always thought he'd moved on to his Young Americans/Station to Station look by this point.
My father, Pierre Llinares (viola) plays on this song with the electrical string quartet, Michel Ripoche (1st violin), Pierre Louis (2d violin) and cellist Hervé Derrien. The sessions took place in Château d'Hérouville recording studio on 29th of july 1973. The strings recording session was on night time at 3 am...
That’s so awesome! I was so jealous my father saw him during this era of his music. I got to see him twice live and even had a small interaction with him before his passing. I’m so blessed and lucky to see one of my favorite artists before they passed.
I think I was about 15 when I bought this single and like many teenagers going through tough periods with a father who liked to dish it out - in those times when I could this song brought me some sort of relief even though it is sad - on a brighter note I can remember being 17 and at last free of my strict parents and dancing to golden years with a beautiful American girl in Penzance .- that is the great thing with beautiful scripted songs they truly can leave strong impressions on you and a time and place in your life.
What a sad loss for the music world. My whole world was totally shattered when I heard the news of David Bowie's passing. He was not only a great singer, songwriter and musician but he was also a great actor too. Thank you so much for posting this legendary performance. David Bowie's musical legacy will live on.
I'm only 19 and only recently discovered his 70s period only a few years ago. Honestly I wasn't alive for Ziggy Stardust but I've become a huge fan of that period and years after. I'm still in shock, RIP David Bowie
For the record, this girl is a French disco singer from the 70's, Amanda Lear, she was an egerie in London at the time! What an exceptional period that must have been... :) Thanks for sharing!
he was so extreme at times that he allowed our extremes to appear almost normal. sort of like how nothing on the cat walk ever really makes it into retail fashion. he enabled an entire generation to express themselves and acted as a decoy time after time.
This stage set, the checkerboard, "pieces" being moved by "Lady Love" is perfect. Not to mention the cameo sax treatment. Just a perfect set and perfect song, one of the best of the 1980 Floor Show.
yes Jack Grattan, that sums it up perfectly. Sorrow. The world won't be the same without David Bowie in it. A musical and creative genius whose music will live in our hearts forever. RIP David Bowie
Lynne Huff Some weird challenge where a group of people strike a random pose, one person films it for a little time, ten secs or something, it was a random trend back in 2016 that to this day I'll never understand.
One of best recordings I have ever heard, the arrangements are near perfect Drums, bass, Violin etc and Bowie's voice is real smooth, love the Sax break it's spot on, hard to find songs as good as this and recorded as well these days!
I love this song, actually I love all his songs. What a great loss to his family, fans and the world of music. I am thankful I grew up knowing who David Bowie was from Ziggy, Thin White Duke and David Jones such a talent he will truly be missed. I still cry when I think about the whole thing. RIP David you are LOVED AND MISSED!!!
I will never forget when I found this album in my brothers drawer 10 years old 1973 and heard this song for the first time. Life changing for a future gay man from northern part of Sweden. Thanks David!
One of the rare artists that could sing live even in his videos (backing track assisted with harmonies & instruments) - what a talented singer etc. I get this song stuck in my head so often. Yay
SORROW LYRICS With your long blonde hair And your eyes of blue The only thing I ever got from you Was sorrow Sorrow You acted funny trying To spend my money You're out there playing your high class games of sorrow Sorrow You never do what you know you oughta Something tells me You're a Devil's daughter Sorrow, sorrow Ahhhh, ah, ahhhh I tried to find her 'Cause I can't resist her (I tried to find her) I never knew just how much I missed her Sorrow Sorrow With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow Sorrow Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh With your long blonde hair I couldn't sleep last night
i wish i had yur dad, i didnt discover bowie until freshman year of h.s. 1979 and like you, havent stopped listening since..your family reunions must rock!!
Watching the sunrise, drinking XO Cognac and thinking of David Bowie. Surreal. What a great loss; and yet we were so blessed to have his company for the time we did. A Rock God!
Jack dude, Bowie will never rest in peace... The Star-man came from the stars.. and to the Universe he returneth.. aahh Men.. tune in.. The planet Earth is sleeping under a bed of stars...actually, Bowie is still the greatest show on Earth.. at least he was in my time.. 50 in April.. he always kept me dreaming.. and he still does.
Amanda Lear, Lear began her career as a fashion model in the mid-1960s and was also a muse of the Spanish surrealist painter Salvador Dalí. She first came to the public attention as the model on the cover of Roxy Music's album For Your Pleasure in 1973. In the mid-1970s to the early 1980s, she was a million-selling Disco Queen, mainly in Continental Europe and Scandinavia with hits such as "Queen of Chinatown", "Follow Me", "Enigma (Give a Bit of Mmh to Me)" and "Fashion Pack".
I couldn't think of a more appropriate song to play yesterday and today, and maybe tomorrow, with the sad, sad passing of Keith Emerson of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.
I am a huge fan of Bowie...although I wasn't alive when he started to make the ingenious music and movies that he does,but am thankfull that I can hear him now and see him. He is still the sexiest man alive to this day. I love him!!!!!
I remember walking into a record store when Diamond Dogs was first released...they had the Diamond Dogs art and the album displayed everywhere...up until then I didn't have the balls to buy a Bowie album (anyone from back then knows what I mean..the other kids in your class saying 'oh! that fag' etc.)...but after experiencing the awesomeness of the feeling I got from that album cover and art...I said screw it and bought the album...I'm soooo glad I did!!!

+Jack Grattan if you notice he wore one of these costumes in his last video Lazarus.
+Jack Grattan INDEED....Sorrow
Omg yes!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Absolutely Totally Great .... So Fab ... I'm inspired by David so I tried a YT original ... Space Boy - Maggie is hurting me ... I'm so grateful.
Gosh he looked so different at different periods of his life.. Such an intriguing, unique and prolific artist...
True artist
I never even thought he retained his Ziggy Stardust look by this period until I saw this video. I'd always thought he'd moved on to his Young Americans/Station to Station look by this point.
David bowie we love u
that's because he believed in CHANGES.

So hypnotic. The man was and still is the artist.

Wow, that must have been amazing. I really love this song and the arrangement.

this was the first single I ever bought from my pocket money.....he touched so many lives...RIP David, so sad
one of the soundtracks of my life when I was a teenager. it holds a special place in my heart

Looks like you've lived, brother!
I lost a friend yesterday, my heart is full of sorrow :(

RIP David Bowie. Sorrow was always my favourite song his voice and the great saxaphone. Now it is the word that describes my emotions. Sorrow.
David was a real visionary and artist of the highest caliber.
I'm glad I lived when this all time great did. In a thousand years , people will still look back at this man in awe. Nice one David, RIP.
He will always be intriguing us mere mortals
Magic time of SEVENTEEN'S
Rest in peace Bowie, you thank you for everything.
Sorrow indeed at his passing .
A great artist and a thoroughly decent man .
RIP David Bowie .

Loved this song through and through. Typically Bowie. The very emotion I feel at the minute.
he was so extreme at times that he allowed our extremes to appear almost normal. sort of like how nothing on the cat walk ever really makes it into retail fashion. he enabled an entire generation to express themselves and acted as a decoy time after time.
Perfectly said
That’s a very nice way of putting it, I’d never looked at it like that
This stage set, the checkerboard, "pieces" being moved by "Lady Love" is perfect. Not to mention the cameo sax treatment. Just a perfect set and perfect song, one of the best of the 1980 Floor Show.
Thank you for all magical moments, your greatness will never die! 🎶🎸🎤🎧🎷🎵
1973 What an awesome song
2020 What an awesome song
My favourite Bowie song ever ❤❤❤
yes Jack Grattan, that sums it up perfectly. Sorrow. The world won't be the same without David Bowie in it. A musical and creative genius whose music will live in our hearts forever. RIP David Bowie
Ronno's arrangement. Genius...
my heart now is empty, I can only feel sorrow I love you David, I will love you forever
0:13 bowie invented the mannequin challenge before anyone else
What is the mannequin challenge?
Lynne Huff Some weird challenge where a group of people strike a random pose, one person films it for a little time, ten secs or something, it was a random trend back in 2016 that to this day I'll never understand.
Oh Thank you It is difficult to understand. Isn't this clip divine?!! The way D dressed, and moved, out of this world.
Love you so much. Rest in peace.
One of best recordings I have ever heard, the arrangements are near perfect Drums, bass, Violin etc and Bowie's voice is real smooth, love the Sax break it's spot on, hard to find songs as good as this and recorded as well these days!
I just love this song.
Such talent and such a loss still all these years later…. And that swagger. No matter what setting he is in David is the sexiest, classiest man
Brilliantly beautiful 🤩
This song has stuck with me longer than any other Bowie song.
This is all I feel...love you, man!
My heart aches! What an EPIC legend! RIP David!
Such beauty you were and still are David R.I.P. Sad for this tragic loss. We all love you💜
It's timeless. Bowie was beauty personified. I am spellbound by the looks he gave to everyone. Oh my!
The First song that started my lifetime journey with an incredible artist. Never forgotten
i saw this on regular Tv in the 70s i think it some kind of special
Yes, The Midnight Special with Wolfman Jack in 1973. I saw it, too! I was 8. It blew my mind.
Liar.
I saw him years ago in Memphis, I was expecting Halloween Jack, but we got The Thin White Duke, amazing!!!
R.I.P David.. a true legend.. an inspiration to so many.
What an absolute genius
One of a kind
OMG in love again what an amazing performance and truly beautiful rendition :)
RIP David Bowie ❤️
I love this campy performance. I mean, how fun.
Love this .... my Bowie performances bring me great joy.
I love this song, actually I love all his songs. What a great loss to his family, fans and the world of music.

This will always be my favorite track....AWESOME
this song brings back great memories! I listened to this song over and over when I was a teen. Thanks for posting.
I'm just discovering Bowie's magic. Can't think of anyone else as amazing and unique as him since...xxx
The black dude is seven different kinds of funky !
+Robert Williams And I cant help leering at Amanda !
It's a chic, I think!
One of my favorite Bowie songs!
Awesome, always. What an incredible artist 💓💓
The world have lost an icon, and I have lost my hero. The sadness is overwhelming, the magic and the music is powerful. R.I.P. David Bowie
SORROW LYRICS
With your long blonde hair
And your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you
Was sorrow
Sorrow
You acted funny trying
To spend my money
You're out there playing your high class games of sorrow
Sorrow
You never do what you know you oughta
Something tells me
You're a Devil's daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
Ahhhh, ah, ahhhh
I tried to find her
'Cause I can't resist her
(I tried to find her)
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
With your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
So much apart of my youth in the 70's - thanks David now RIP cos all I feel is sorrow.
I love you David Bowie. OMG we will miss you so much. I miss you.

The planet Earth is sleeping under a bed of stars...actually, Bowie is still the greatest show on Earth.. at least he was in my time.. 50 in April.. he always kept me dreaming.. and he still does.

This song is everything

My Dad used to sing this to me when I was little! He died when I was eleven so this song is special to me.
U bring us so much joy love u forever
greatest superstar ever
David looks totally amazing here, one of his best looks and a fantastic cover of a fantastic song.
Absolutely one of my most favorite Bowie songs. Just brilliant!
The intro is just masterful. When I wallow in sadness I remember this songs. I close my eyes and let it consume me.
What a great Artist, it´s so sad.....
I couldn't think of a more appropriate song to play yesterday and today, and maybe tomorrow, with the sad, sad passing of Keith Emerson of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.
R.I.P. David Bowie, You was great.
the prettiest star. in every possible way
That's a freakin awesome song !
Absolute bliss - could listen to this on repeat - David, I am me because of you...
6 month today, so sorrow but love, loyalty and admiration above all
He is and always be a legend he may have gone to space but he has left us his music RIP Mr Jones
I am a huge fan of Bowie...although I wasn't alive when he started to make the ingenious music and movies that he does,but am thankfull that I can hear him now and see him. He is still the sexiest man alive to this day. I love him!!!!!
Loss of another World Legend and Ray of Light R.I.P Mr Bowie xxx
"Sorrow" was first recorded by the McCoys in 1965.
So beautiful.
Crying now. Too much sorrow,
Love this song ❤️❤️❤️
Learning this Sax break. Thanks David 🙏🏻😪🎷
I remember walking into a record store when Diamond Dogs was first released...they had the Diamond Dogs art and the album displayed everywhere...up until then I didn't have the balls to buy a Bowie album (anyone from back then knows what I mean..the other kids in your class saying 'oh! that fag' etc.)...but after experiencing the awesomeness of the feeling I got from that album cover and art...I said screw it and bought the album...I'm soooo glad I did!!!
