David Bowie sounds like an awesome guy to chat with.
JAY PARIS I would talk to him for hours on end. He's an amazing artist.
He bookmarked himself quite well between the bowie the rockstar & bowie the man.
Always exploring yet very much grounded.
A perfect artist, really.
Alas...
Ofcourse
Too late
Bowie's strength is that he rarely repeats himself.
Especially in an industry that demands it at times.
when he does it’s artistic, like a nod or a different view in an old idea.
Lhes actually quite a good singer, little known fact
He said he always repeated himself in a way - coming back to the same themes of alienation and inner struggle again and again - but always from a new angle or approach. That he didn't repeat, although many times his work did echo back to earlier pieces. A true artist.
For a man who did more cocaine than god and has experienced life in a crazy kaleidoscope that most of us could never imagine in our wildest dreams, David Bowie is surprisingly down to earth.
He always was if you consider writings and works at the exhibition David B is.
Gore Motel
well god doesn't do coke so anyone can do more coke than God
I think that's the pun. Or maybe not.
You mean he’s surprisingly down to earth... for a Starman? 🥁
Well, after all that cocaine and stardust, eventually he just fell to Earth...
I love that the animators even went through the detailing of Bowie's eyes, giving one a ring around it to show how one pupil was larger than the other.
dave,you are a unique beautiful citizen of earth.i believe you will reincarnate into a better rock god.see you on your side!
Yeah
He kinda looks like Sans though.
Thank you for pointing that out. Most people keep saying that they're different colors even though they're quite clearly not if you look closely.
I really thought he would live forever
i thought the same for chuck berry
Legends never die.
vanillabitch but he died
legends never die
vanillabitch that's not true
Bye, David. You were always a rockstar, still are.
Nokomarie he was more than a rockstar, he was a visionary and true musician
Mosixman he's not a rock star...... he's a blackstar
RIP
Bowie was something MUCH GREATER than a mere rockstar!
An artist and a rock god
72-76? Bowie was a rock star from beginning to end!
but man, Ziggy was long way death before 76. Till that date he have already realized Diamond Dogs, Young Americans and Station to Station...
In the 80s David Bowie was very pop instead of rock.
He had a huge cocaine problem from 72-76. A massive one, I read even Mick Jagger was worried about him. Being awake for 5 days doing BOWLS of cocaine but still tore it up in the studio
Bowie was something MUCH GREATER than a mere rockstar!
"I'm not a great singer, but I can interpret the song"
He got it
It's entirely true.
RIP our beautiful Star Man
When I heard his voice, my eyes immediately teared up and got immediate chills
Loveless Knight u aren't the only one man
For those of you wondering why one of his pupils was bigger than the other: When he was a teenager him and his friend George Underwood got into a fight over girl which led Underwood punching Bowie in his left eye. The doctors later determined that the damage caused the pupil to be permanently dilated which caused faulty depth perception and gave the impression that the iris was a different color from the other. Bowie and Underwood were still good friends after and Underwood would even design the artwork for Bowies first few albums.
"Fucking with the fabric of time." ~David Bowie
Your animator(s) deserve a promotion. This is some awesome animation.
We will miss you so much. Thank you. For everything.
Am I the only one to like his talking voice ?
You are not alone! me too. love to hear his talking, could listen endlessly........
I love hearing his voice in interviews and his jokes.Very soft voice and warmth.
You should listen his telling of Peter and the wolf
Vincent von Werne I always listen to it the night before an exam in order to sleep well 😅
Bowie's voice makes my heart flutter :)
Even when in the midst of his cocaine addiction, David had more presence of mind, than most of us ever can dream of.
What an unique man, and true artist, so authentic, an explorer and lover of life on earth and beyond, of things seen and unseen.
Gosh, I Love him so
Bowie is such an innovative creator, always a pleasure to see him and hear him!
he's with the stars now ⚡️
I know exactly what he means by creating for an invented concept/persona rather than for one's self.
Brian Lang no you don't
Same here.
His creativity has no limits.
I miss you Bowie.
The King is dead. RIP.
King is too low. I reckon god suits him.
@@ladystardust5192 A starman
The beauty of Bowie was that he never fell into the trappings of fame. Once you've made it as an artist, you've got your management and your fans asking you to do what is essentially the same thing over, and over with very little variation. That can be incredibly limiting and depressing as an artist, so Bowie just simply ignored them and worked only to satisfy himself. That takes a hell of a lot of bravery and foresight. He was just this unstoppable creative force and a true artist.
Much missed.
Never forgotten.
RIP Spaceboy.
Thank You for everything.
"It can become very complicated" LOL David is smart, witty and natural
he didn't listened his voice? is a great singer voice.he had a great range and was perfect tuned. he was so humble about this skill.
I love how self aware he was
Some real words of wisdom here..
My favorite era of Bowie is 76-80. Love all his stuff! Legend!
God I still miss him so so so much
He’s so interesting it’s crazy
"There's a Starman, waiting in the sky..."
See you there one day, Mr. Bowie.
Kids today (2019) have missed out on the birth of rock and rock. They are enjoying the fruits of the creators of rock and roll. Bless their little cotton socks.
Rest well goblin king ❤️
Ive been missing him alot as of late. And this pops up in my suggestions. Im going to go listen to him and vibe out now.
It's been over two months, but damn I miss David still :(
same here.......still a lot!!
its been 4 years, and we still miss David...
Eight years now :(
David Bowie was sometimes the only constant in my life that was ever-changing. My favorite song fir years is his Starman, and I seriously could never imagine a world where I didn't listen to his music. Hes absolutely a masterpiece.
RIP David Bowie - forever a rockstar 🌹
I was a kid when Let's Dance came out. A lot of it had to do with Stevie Ray Vaughan, but I didn't really appreciate his earlier stuff and still don't want to listen to it to this day. However the last few albums David put out we're so unbelievably creative and well-produced that I absolutely fell in love with his talent and ability to work and produce the highest level of pop culture. And although he's gone now, the great news is there's a lot of material that I have yet to discover. Cheers David!
forever in our hearts bowie
the best bowies interview, by far
He is so humble, so down to earth.
Rest in peace david bowie
David Bowie was, is and always will be a role model and inspiration for me. He will live on forever and ever.
Thus entire series feels like someone went to heaven (or hell) and interviewed a bunch of amazing people
bowie gives me chills
He really was a rock an roll star.
Rip Ziggy
This page is just wow, thank you. You deserve so much more recognition
Watching this interview now a few years after his passing as a big fan made me kind of emotional. I'm thankful this came on my feed
Brilliant interview
I will love you till I die,
I will see you in the sky,
To the man who fell to earth,
Forever Bowie
His voice calms me down and makes me happier than anything.
One of the greatest men that walked the planet, eternally influential, eternally a legend, eternally in all of our hearts. Not just Bowie himself but his music too, he lives on through his work, work that will be continually listened to and reference and played over and over and over forever. Thank you for your work Bowie, you’ve done so much for music and you’ve done so much and continue to do so much for peoples lives. Rest in peace the G.O.A.T.
this is my favorite interview. god, i love this man. ❤❤❤⚡live on, David
was just talking about him with a friend. We've both met and had chats with him - such an easy man to get on with. His creativity reaches us on a personal level, and i believe it has a great deal to do with his willingness to engage whoever or whatever comes along - you can't rediscover yourself if you're not continually discovering the life and lives around you with an open mind. Long live Bowie. Long, long, long live Bowie.
One of the best uploads by Blank on Blank. Bowie was one Rock's great intellectuals and his eloquence and good nature shine here.
a real fucking artist.
Rest in peace, Sir!
The animations are great, thank you!
He was not just a composer but a creator who strengthened the roots of whatever genre that he used to convey his creativity in this world.
Those personalities David made during his career span of more than 50 years itself apart him from any other of his contemporaries. Especially after listened to 'Blackstar', which sounded Avant garde now I miss him way too much since he still would've produced different kind of sounds to us with his unique 'Bowiesque' way of style. ❤️
real unique and one of a kind artists that will never come again i wept a tears the first when he pass the second when i didn't heard him before.
Here is the explanation of the start of Stardust Crusaders insperarion. It makes so much sense now. Love JJBA and David Bowie even more now.
what a beautiful and brilliant man! will always miss and love you..rest in peace❤💔
Awesome Bowie. I'm a big fan and this is great! Thank you so much! So happy I found your channel.
Rest in peace Bowie rock the outher side.
R.I.P. David Bowie
i love him and i miss him so fucking much. thanks for everything david
I wish i could talk like him his way of talking is simply so soothing and intelligent sigh
This is just fabulous.
David is going to be my eternal go to as a definition of an artist.
Such a great artist, man, and human being... Miss you man!!
R.I.P🙏❤️
I swear I'd be happy just to listen to him talk. He's so smooth, singing or not
Love these videos !
am I the only one who just loves to hear him talk?
"An audience appriciation is only going to be periodic at the best of times. You'll fall in and out of favor continually. I don't think it should be something one should be looking for. I think you should turn around at the end of the day and say 'I really like that peice of work' or 'that piece of work sucked' not 'was that popular or wasn't it popular'"
Still relevant to this day.
I love David's songs a lot, because they really inspired me like the way he did!
What a wonderful and honest man, i may not be the greatest fan of your works and i only knew you when you died but you are certainly worthy of your glory Mr. Bowie
I won't be surprised if he was given the honor of a knight, at dark times like these it really helps knowing people like bowie existed and sailed on the steel breeze to the sun.
Respect
this is amazing!!
RIP sweet prince
that's a lovely tribute xx
Lady stardust is one the best songs on the album
Beautiful Human
Quite the teaching on fame and passion, he truly was unique.
RIP legend
An incredible man💙❤️
This was lovely to watch. I could watch animated interviews with him all day. It ended so quickly. :)
Rest In Peace; one of the biggest inspirations in my entire life.
I miss him soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. Love and respect to you Bowie....out in the stars... wherever.

He was such a profound artist!
His voice 🥰
