Still. Love. This. Track. Honestly. Every time he brought it out on tour, it just got hairier and nastier and so [insert expletive here] sexy it defies description. I grew up through that era, and it still resonates with me like it was yesterday. Miss you, Papa Ziggy.
I just scored tickets to see Celebrating DB with Peter Murphy, saw that they will be concentrating on his post Young Americans phase & am praying that they cover this🤞❣
Fantastic ! This is really what one feels who has been waiting for justice, so long, so long....And WHO LOOKS BACK IN ANGER !! Never never forget !! And Reeves Gabrels on guitar great !
@@GoDamnWeird Yep, this song is the perfect opener - a band always plays different with the audience in front of them so theres always things to tweak during the first few songs. Notice how he grabs his in-ear belt pack right after the first few words, probably to turn up the volume. The mix for the TV was probably done in a van by the audio engineer of the TV station, which is (still) common in german public TV.
@bengt167 Personally, I greatly admire Gabrels, eclectic, rich of imagination, free of musical preconceptions, perhaps the best improviser after Hendrix, certainly one of the "guitar-hero" of the 21st century. Also, I think it's also a great man, with that dignified humility of the authentic artists; even likeable, with his sly air, composed and sweet, a nice contrast which puts more emphasis on the power of his sound. Bowie, well ... IS Bowie. Many thanks.
One of my favorite Bowie songs. It must have been tremendously exciting to have been at the concert. I must admit, however, I prefer Bowie's vocals as originally expressed on the video\album version of the track, especially the "You KNOW who I am," he said, the way he hits that "know", which I think is one of the most awesome ways to begin a song in all of rock and roll. In this version thought, Bowie is affecting some strange nasal accent, like maybe he's trying to sound like an Americanized Johnny Rotten, or something... maybe it was a parody that would have been obvious in 1996?
He signals to the sound person to turn up his mic part way through, so it's possible he couldn't hear himself well at the start and that affected his vocals
@racyweb Thank you, Tracy. This song touches me deeply. Every time I look it, I ask me how does David to sing in this upsetting way what himself has conceived, so far from the suggested topics, with an open vision, far-sighted. Probably because he had known very well them, had transcended them. It's not glacial distance, but compassionate, spiritual. This Death's Angel so expected, this anger in looking back ... an anguished human time, softened by Light strokes featured in Bowie's poetry.
Bowie made us immediately curious. “What is this?” We can’t look away. We don’t understand it, but there is something strangely important going on here. That was Bowie’s brand of Cool.
You know who iam he said The speaker was an angel He coughed and shook his crumpled wings closed his eyes and moved his lips This time we should be going Waiting so long I've been waiting so long Chorus Look back in anger Driven by the night Till you come No one seemed to hear him so he leafed through a magazine and yawned he rubbed the sleep away very sane he seemed to me Waiting so long I've been waiting so long Chorus Look back in anger Feel it in my voice Till you come Waiting so long, now........ Waiting so long I've been waiting so waiting so .......
Oh babe.....I was SUCH A BIG FAN till I get 12 years old....We had to move to Berlin (from Western Germany) ....and everything I knew was this fu***ng film and the music.... My destiny was, that I looked like the actress (Nadja Brunckhorst)...and that my brain was filled up with this Heroin-stuff.... I wanna talk to Bowie, since I was 12; may be he could rehab me. By the way....: All the BEST from Berlin-Schöneberg!
@bmusitan Very shareable. But some nuances, which were further refined in process of one great experience and perfectly in line with the temperament of Bowie who had always tended to treat every infinitesimal detail (and, of course, for the undeniable talent), I have appreciated his performance also in recent times. Thanks for the comment.
I always believed he was referring to Iggy Pop. New values has a song named ‘Angel’ to which I think this song is a response to. Particularly as Bowie is painting himself as an angel. And the lyric of ‘Angel’ seems to fit very perfectly with the relationship they shared, and I don’t mean necessarily in a gay way.
I don’t think this is a good rendition. Especially the drums are far off the greatness of the original. The original is mad, quirky and driven, this version is a boring stomper. I guess the 90s demanded this. Still, I love Bowie and always will.
I'd say as a performer, Bowie was at his peak in the 1970s. This is great, none the less. He's just being more artistic, in my opinion, later on in his years and less of a performer, which is why people drove away from his music. They want to dance and go nuts over his music than enjoy it as something artistic, like what they do with lady gaga's music.

0:24 Bowie's happy because he's at a David Bowie concert.
The band is so tight it's unbelievable. True craftsmanship by all.
and was first song of the show
My thoughts exactly. Incredibly tight and fantastic to hear.
Bowie always employed cream of the crop musicians
Oh shit! Wow, terrific performance of this underrated track.
SUCH a stupendously good song! DAVID BOWIE WE MISS YOU SO MUCH! R.I.P
AgD
the speaker was an angel
+Caroline Martin Agreed.
One of the better re-interpretations of this 1979 song... Bowie's vocal is gymnastic & clear in the mix... Bowie great in the 90's!!!

I was there, greatest concert of my life!
I believe you.
Leo Granja What a gift.💝
Where was It? And which date? I saw him at the doctor music festival in Spain july 12th 1996
Oh that's amazing! Im actually really young fan of David Bowie.I am a bit jealous hah, but very happy for those who could see him live♡
Saw him February 1996. Wow wow wow !
R.I.P. David Bowie. You were such a gift to the world.
Vocal supremacy.
I just scored tickets to see Celebrating DB with Peter Murphy, saw that they will be concentrating on his post Young Americans phase & am praying that they cover this🤞❣
Gail anne dorsey is just awesome
he was truly the real deal just wish I had the chance to see him live
to him it’s just another day but this track remains one of the most important ones of my life. when i listen to it i feel possessed
So true ... but the songs are so great ... inspired me to perform his songs on YT ... I'm so privileged.
Fantastic ! This is really what one feels who has been waiting for justice, so long, so long....And WHO LOOKS BACK IN ANGER !! Never never forget !! And Reeves Gabrels on guitar great !
No words. This man still captures me after all these years. Respect brother David.
This verion is fabulous ❤🎉
I saw him 4 times. Last in 1990. I would trade all four for this one show easily. This looks like just awesome fun!
energy omg
That could only be Mike Garson on keyboards.
Great performance.
I recently went to a villa in Bali that was once rented by Bowie in the late 80s. I could truly still feel his aura!
I saw this tour. The band was excellent! Of course Bowie was incredible.
i MISS HIM SO MUCH!
Bowie and his band is amazing. Mick’s “broken” piano playing stands out on this track.
He must have loved so much his band. Bless him. Missing him
Brilliant Bowie❣️
At 2:30 he asks to increase volume of his mic or of the sound on his ears. It's not the light.
He was after more vocal in the monitors, cause the band hooked in harder at that point. Front of house was perfect, no doubt.

We’re going to be waiting a long time for another artist of Bowie’s magnitude.
It isn't going to happen.
Bowie and my past so many good memories!..
So true ... but the songs are so great ... inspired me to perform his songs on YT ... I'm so privileged.
Superbo...come sempre...love Bowie

....i agree....he is extremely special.....and a great visual foil for DAVID....and GAIL ANN....BOWIE....always knew how to pick them....
...the almighty Reeves Gabrels - and Bowie so f****n cool !
High energy

The pinnacle of artistry...
The song of the mood for 2016
Reeves sounds GREAT on this one!
Great version!

You know who iam he said
The speaker was an angel
He coughed and shook his crumpled wings closed his eyes and moved his lips
This time we should be going
Waiting so long I've been waiting so long
Chorus
Look back in anger
Driven by the night
Till you come
No one seemed to hear him so he leafed through a magazine and yawned he rubbed the sleep away very sane he seemed to me
Waiting so long I've been waiting so long
Chorus
Look back in anger
Feel it in my voice
Till you come
Waiting so long, now........
Waiting so long I've been waiting so waiting so .......

The band butchered this song. The original arrangement was much funkier.
