    Whoa! Man when folks today say they're more forward thinking, I always show them how far out the 70s were. The 70s were the age of the sexual revolution, tv was groundbreaking and very landmark entertainment. The "beautiful people knew how to amaze and entertain! The artist were stretching the way to be hip and cool. They may not have been the best looking singers, actors or both. But they were the real deal, they were artist for the ages. God bless!

      yep things are so regressive today, and it isn't funny. This was +50 years ago and it's outrageous to see that it was on a major TV station, on a major show, in a prime time slot, so much for all the BS talked about past decades :-)

      Exact same thoughts from me. Dressed up as a woman when he came to America. That was in the early 70s. Imagine if anybody did that now in 2024 where were meant to be more progressive. It would be a shame if Bowie saw what was happening in today's society, as he was always a peaceful loving person.

    I have been watching bootleg videos of this and other Bowies videos from this particular show for years and most with a lot of quality flaws or missing spots but was happy to see them and could live with them! ...But finally, it's so great to start seeing very high-quality original TMS videos here on "The Midnight Special" channel from Bowie's 1980 Floor Show that aired back in 1973 and I remember it like it was yesterday! ...I sure hope eventually the whole show will be shown in its entirety! ...As there was nothing else ever like it ever since as it was almost the end of his Ziggy-Aladdin persona! ...Absolutely Bowie fantastic!
    Thank you Midnight Special for releasing it and the many other shows and artist you have been sharing as I have been praying for many, many, many years for this musical history day to come from you!

    Bowie's remake of "Sorrow" did not charted in Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart. But it went to # 69 (Cashbox) in December of 1973.

      It was a great worldwide hit. Number 1 in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, number 2 in Ireland, Zimbabwe, Number 3 in the UK, Iceland. It also reached the top 10 in France, Belgium and several other countries. The album Pin Ups was a complete success in the UK, it was number 1 for 5 weeks, debuting above Elton's goodbye yellow brick road that debuted the same week and prevented The Who's album "Quadrophenia" from being number 1.

    Amanda Lear compartió una perspectiva interesante pero un tanto sesgada en el libro Bowie at the Marquee. No daré spoilers para quien no ha leído el tomo, pero me encontré en total desacuerdo con lo que dijo sobre la razón por la que Bowie leía tantos libros.

    The end of the Ziggy Stardust - Aladdin Sane era. Appearing with Bowie is the great Amanda Lear, who maybe (or maybe not) was a pioneering trans woman. Accounts differ...

      I just read the "Patsy Stone" character (played by Joanna Lumley) on the BBC series _Absolutely Fabulous_ was loosely based on Amanda Lear.

    "Performs live" - live lipsyncing. Way too prevalent back then ( and some still). Why would they pass up an opportunity to have a fresh, new, LIVE version of Bowie singing?

    • @Themanwhocameback2

      Bowie's singing IS live. It's the rest that is canned playback.
