- Bowie is one of my all time favourites so i feel a bit bad at covering his songs as they are just so good, however i was asked for this and i try to please , needed a bit of help from my friend Buzz Lightyear though.
PS, she's back at work !
Buzz Lightyear on the background is brilliant! Peace 🕊️
He wanted in on it.
I love your covers because it makes me listen to the lyrics in a different way, great rendition man
I could listen to this man singing about baking a cake and i would still be touched like i just got a hug for the first time in what feels like forever
true. agree
Agreed
The perfect mix of melancholy, angst, and sitting in a tin can. So good.
Bowie is smiling somewhere . He was a great experimenter in all things . I'm sure he would be diggin' this ,as I am
This one hit the feels. David Bowie (rip) would be very proud :(
Morning Frank…what a complete surprise today’s cover is! And an excellent version, thoroughly enjoyable.
Thank you Larry i find his stuff really hard to do for some reason.
It's not often a cover of a song i really like gives me the amount of emotions like this one does. ❤❤❤
Hi Mr. Watkinson! I found your videos tonight while I was scrolling through UA-cam, just wasting time before I go to bed and work the next morning. I’m 21, and I started learning how to play guitar last November. I go to a lesson every week, and I practice for about 20 or 30 minutes on my lunch breaks, as well as my two 15 minute breaks; about an hour spent total in the day. Watching you play inspires me to keep practicing so that one day I could play as greatly and as passionately as you do. I hope you enjoy your day, and I wish you all the best!
Thank you.
frank bowie .sounds great .
Haha, I agree!
Thank you, Frank!---This is done so well, and so well delivered.., conveying both the stark, fragile loneliness of inhospitable outer space and the far away longing for even more fragile Mother Earth. Just Awesome!
Bowie would dig this Frank. Well done!
this song has a very big emotional impact on me, and your voice when you sing always makes me feel every word in my heart. the combination is just heavenly. this is incredibly comforting to me, your covers are always adequate and enough. thank you
No acostumbro a comentar los vídeos, ya que hablo español. Pero esta interpretación es sublime, preciosa, me encanta! Eres grandioso!! Enhorabuena!
Gracias.
Good afternoon Frank. I did the countdown in the first verse. Have a great day. Love to you and yours 🌼
I’ve just found your channel and this is the first I’ve listened to. Great wee version, and Buzz Lightyear in the background)
I normally don’t like anyone covering Bowie because they never do it justice…but this was so beautiful and heartfelt ❤
Love your cover 🧡 It adds such a deeper sense of loss to this beautiful song.
Great cover! Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸

Beautiful Frank thank you for all you share!
Really, how do you do that? Of course, it's a fantastic song, but listening to you, it's just new, written and come to this world in that very moment. And it helps so much in moments of heaviness, sadness and supposed darkness: Thank you so much for all that, what you make: it's art, it's helpful, it's important, it's love. Thank you 🙏⭐️💛
I love this so much
Loved It ‼️
One of my favorite songs of all time. Great job.
To infinity... and beyond!
Although I like Bowie, I actually really really love this rendition of the song more. Great work!
Beautiful rendition of a great, nay timeless song
Beautiful cover.
This is so wonderful, Frank. Thanks for sharing your art and giving us all a smile.💛

Beautiful! The wife and I love your music and covers! We love the way you sing this one!
Very versatile very beautiful Frank. One of my favorite songs ever! Great cover and tugs at your heartstrings. Just one last question do we call you Frank or Franky Stardust now?
Call me anything you like.
one of the best you ever did
One of my favourite songs 😊
thank you for this. beautiful!!
Impresionante. Eres un fenómeno.
Great stuff Frank!
Watching and listening in awe....
My friend... every cover you play, you touch my heart.. Blessed you!!
So soft... Like a lullaby..
Magnifique, j'aime énormément votre reprise..... 🙏
Me too 2 French here
my heart just about beat out of my chest seeing my favourite cover artist cover this Bowie song. brilliant job again Frank!!
Sorry for not listening to this great version by Space Oddity before now, Mr.Watkinson..This is nothing less than beautiful to listen to. Thanks.
Brilliant. Emotional. The end shrug was hilarious :)
Beautiful in the simplicity ! Like your Ashes to Ashes cover, you got exactly the spirit and the sadness of the song, your voice blend with the guitar are very good. Bowie would be happy to hear it....ThankS
This song is incredibly special to me it gives me the chills like no other song dose.
I have loved this song since I was 9 years old in 1969 and my name is Tom and it always brings tears to my eyes, you really caught the melancholy nature of the song !
Kate Bush’s Runnin Up that Hill would probably be an awesome cover to hear from him
Oh yes!
this brought me so much peace, thank you
Wow Frank! I just listened to 'Wish You Were Here', now this. I love it! It's so different yet familiar. Excellence.. 👍
You are so talented great job!
This performance is the flip-side to Capt. Hadfield's. While Chris remarks upon the blue Earth as a beauty, your performance revealed such a deepness in the lyrics. "Planet Earth is blue... there is nothing I can do." A somberness that befits the original author, yet the clearness in the performance almost brings peace to the tragic lyrics. Thank you.
Thank you for this ♡♡♡
this goes beyond anything 🤟🏿☮️
Brilliant!
I love this song, it's so awesome that you did a cover of it!
Lindo!
Buzz Lightyear at the back ready to take off! Well done!
Brilliant and beautiful as always
Such a sweet voice as always.
Thank you for your performance :) hope you’re with joy like you bring joy to us
Beautiful, so beautiful.
One of Bowie’s best.
YOUR VERSION IS SO GOOD AND WITH EMOTION!
Beautiful cover ❤ I love your videos! Love from India
This is superb
One of my favorite Bowie songs, and it's a fantastic cover. Love it.
Fantastic cover sir, it's been a while since I checked your channel, but I'm here to listen to this version of yours! May God bless you sir!
Welcome back!
Frank, this was fantastic. My husband and I love your work. You are very appreciated. If you ever feel like covering some Tragically Hip, I think it would be amazing.
Lovely!
You are soooo great! I can listen you singing all day.
Thank you!
Marvellous - you're a legend.
I think everybody who are listening right now they are imagining themselves on an epic movie of them flying on a vast black universe towards to the void :D Love your rendition paps!!!
