Paul Buchanan Bowie Prom - Ashes To Ashes 2 with Lyrics
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2016
- A gorgeous version of David Bowie’s ‘Ashes to Ashes’, featuring Jherek Bischoff and the amazing Stargaze orchestra, wonderfully sang by Paul Buchanan (The Blue Nile) at the recent BBC Bowie Proms. Like us all, we’ve heard this Bowie song many times, but this rendition is as good as it gets in my view. Paul Buchanan made me really listen to the words like never before so I’ve uploaded this with the Lyrics. You’ll notice a few changes by Paul from the original, but nothing that detracts from the majesty of it all. It would be nice if this version made it to No.1 again. Thanks for listening.

40 years ago I discovered The Blue Nile. 40 years later I Love this Life.
How can anyone not love Paul Buchanan?
❤❤❤
Genius song sung by a voice of gold
Buchanan majestic and sublime as always.
no fckin danger.i'd brush that big guy's teeth for him.might sound daft but at this moment,word's fail me...
Intrigued!
this is one of the best things i’ve ever seen
Paul is one of the most genuinely nice guys in the world
who gives a fuck- what an insult to Major Tom
Utterly majestic. PB's voice is truly remarkable. When he hits ....all time low......wow!!!
The best cover ever of a Bowie's great classic
I’m totally in love with this cover! Simply amazing! 🌟💖🎶
WOW! I am knocked out by this. Excellent.
I’m sure David Bowie - who always had great taste - would be very happy with Paul Buchanan’s achingly beautiful vocal interpretation. If anybody isn’t familiar with The Blue Nile, I’d suggest you dive in and start swimming now! Paul is so unique he should have a street named after him in Glasgow. 🤔Wait... Ah. He already has? 😏
Suggest his "Mid-air"
Very touching. Wonderfully to the point: " We know Major Tom's a junkie !
Best cover I've heard of a Bowie song ever. Still listening years after
As a Bowie fan since 1993 I have to say that this version of Ashes to Ashes is deplorable. That is the kindest thing I can say after listening. I think Paul has long since passed his sell by date unfortunately.
Take a listen to David Byrne covering heroes....
@@brianlavery6706 Why don’t you crawl back into that hole you love so much? You know that’s home for you.
Just giving it another whirl ❤. Booked to see him with the SCO at Celtic Connections
A master at work...Legend
To be blessed with such a voice!
I love Paul Buchanan: great performer
This is beautiful. You can tell he is an awesome guy too.
one of the coolest guys in music btw blue nile is his band x
Just discovered Paul Buchanan... Mind blowing voice
Paul was the lead singer of Glasgow's The Blue Nile, he's also had one solo album out as well.
I have also just discovered him right this minute. I was reading the comments on the A t A original video and someone recommended this cover. I am in awe.
Stunning voice....up there with david sylvian
Stunning cover!
This is a beautiful version of this classic song
2nd best voice on earth.....no1..david sylvian
Glasgow and the areas near it produce good male singers in general; like Paul Buchanan, Midge Ure, Jim Kerr, Jack Bruce, Bobby Gillepsie, Lloyd Cole, etc.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Magic.
Sublime. 💫
superb!!
Great!!
Fantastic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well done with Buchanan authentism!
sheer vocal power
wow
I must admit I prefer Paul's other cover on the night off ' I Can’t Give Everything Away' and I have heard somewhere Paul had to be persuaded to do this song also but it's excellent stuff still. He's always excellent thou.
👍 😊 👍
Paul added more pathos.
This would be better at BNS ie Blue Nile Speed not ramming speed.
legit
This was definitely one of the best performances (considering most of them were bad )
He really dropped the ball on this night. Paul was one of my faves.
Nahh
non mi piace per niente .......
de gustibus non est disputandum
Ah be' , grazie al cielo si'................................... ;-)
Buon Natale x
Grazie Anche a te'..... :-)
my God! Master Bowie either turns around in his grave, or his laughing
fit kills him a second time! Which nobodies are on stage here? Where
were his real friends and band members !? This is shameful and does not
do David justice at all! An embarrassing show !!
Paul Buchanan done alright. 5 stars from Q for Hats.
sorry - I dont feel any passion what so ever in this - it feels like a payed job performance & lacking power * depth, Please dont get me wrong I admire Mr Buchanan's work
shame......please stop this pain......vile beyond belief
still shame.........how insulting
Paul Buchanan is a great musician I'm puzzled as to why I never knew of back in the 80s. He and Blue Nile were/are fantastic, and so is this rendition of Major Tom.

One of the best singers ever. PG Buchanan.
@@sharonnorris7015 Yeah he’s brilliant no doubt, but I’m not too big on this version either tbf
@@regolithia Yep, I agree...!
This song isn’t best suited to Buchanan’s style, tbf. It’s a decent go, regardless.
