I love that he had humor all the time about everything. It's so nice to watch him like this and sad at the same time because he's gone and it's like he's still with us and we're trapped in this time. RIP Bowie. You are sorely missed.
what's crazy is for me, i knew his songs but i didn't really follow him but now that he is dead, i find him mesmerizing. I have no clue what he would of been like back when he was doing drugs but a clean and sober David Bowie - what a personality!
Hi David Harden, many musicians/actors lived the 1970s to the fullest and some fell by the wayside (Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin ... to name a few.) Even today, this is still an issue in the industry. To get through such tours requires physical fitness and inner balance and if fans then also massively harass the artists in any way, this means additional stress, which some artists cannot cope with and then try to compensate with drugs of any kind. Some artists manage to live beyond the age of 30 (Michael Jackson 50, Elvis Presley 42). And Mick Jagger (77 🤩) is still alive, despite drug use in his youth ... One takes a turn beforehand and gets the corner and the other starts his journey into the hereafter a little earlier. Back to your last sentence: "yeah - what a personality!"
Das ist wohl wahr. Eben einer von der aussterbenden "Rasse" Gentleman. Selbst in den schrägsten Zeiten hat er es nicht an Manieren und Anstand mangeln lassen. Ich vermisse ihn.

Bowie wirkte unheimlich sexy aber er benahm sich nie obszön. Wenigstens hab ich ihn einmal live erlebt - im Oktober 2003 in Wien, es war die "Reality Tour". - Es war ein wunderschöner Abend.

"well I know one person who tried eating it but he was stoned" I don't think any of them got that, but it was such a clever and funny joke. What a lovely bloke David Bowie was.
@@agee7777 There were a lot of Bowie fans in the crowd though. It was usual that people would come to the show just for the guest when a big star like Bowie showed up.
Oh i always loved it when he smiles and wrinkles his nose. Just a cute habit.....it still makes me so sad to know that we've lost this beautiful soul. Sleep well 😢
As a Brit - and Bowie nut for 40+ years - it's super impressive that he can turn up in front of a German audience and be interviewed in English. RIP Spaceboy. Much missed, never forgotten.
To be honest, it wasn't the best Interview from HS's Side, in my Opinion. Pretty shallow Questions, but maybe he was Starstruck, I know I would be..😂 But Bowie was super relaxed here, love the Guy! RIP
What a pitty, he is not among us anymore. He must have been one of the very very few poeple in the world who wasn't only talanted and handsom, but also always friendly and never arrogant...
@isabella aragon How right you are. - I saw other rock stars live - what a big difference. I saw Bowie only one time in the year 2003 in Vienna, it was the "Reality Tour". After the concert I went back to my hotel with joy in my heart and I've got power for the next three weeks. As is if I had fine Holidays.
Bowie was such a beautiful person. I'm very surprised at how good Harald Schmidt was at asking good questions and letting David talk instead of doing the standard "interrupt the guest just as they start to say something interesting" bit.
I admire the way Bowie attracted & retained over big tracts of time good relationships with excellent musicians who all seemed to be nice people as well. I think Bowie was genuinely nice, polite & with a restrained ego. There are no stories of badly behaving rock ‘n roll bad boys. Ok, he reputedly nearly did for himself in the cocaine, red peppers & milk era of the Thin White Duke, but he didn’t harm others. I love the stories of the DAM Trio, his long time early rhythm section, Dennis Davis, Carlos Alomar & George Murray, after his Spiders from Mars team of Mick Ronson, Trevor Bolder & Woody Woodmansey. Later, I don’t know all the names, but I think he worked for years with Mike Garson (keyboards) & Gail Dorsey (base). Each team, with Bowie, created what sounds to fans as a certain, characteristic sound & feel. He was a prolific writer both of lyrics & music and incredibly skilled despite having little classical training (I think, anyone know?). I recall Mike & Gail play a tribute to their friend shortly after his death & with no impression of fakery, they looked like people who’d lost a close family member. Everyone speaks highly of his collaborative style & that he was mostly great fun to be with. If like me you’re prone to a little OCD, you will enjoy many interviews with one of his longest time friends, bassist & producer, Tony Visconti. For blazing wonder of someone who was under appreciated, I cannot recommend anything better than analysis by Visconti of Denis Davis’ drumming on Look Back In Anger.
Oha, Mr. Cool, and so charming... Even as a guy I have to say what a hell of a sexy voice! Harald Schmidt who normally is obsessed about being the centre of the show came in second here :-) Most do not understand the jokes.
*Geniale Künstler wie Bowie sind sehr sensibel und Bowie hat wohl Haralds sympatische und einzigartige Qualität sofort erkannt und als POSITIV eingestuft ;)* *Gottschalk dagegen wirkt eher wie ein Teletubbie auf Crack, sehr uninspirierend, mainstreamig und eher abtörnend ;)*
Das er die Adresse weiss wo Iggy Pop mal vor 100 Jahren in Berlin gelebt hat ist schier unglaublich, ich weiss nicht mal mehr meine eigene letzte Adresse, und das ist nur zwei Jahre lol
+Muftipufti I knew that but didn,t comment on it...I was sure that sooner or later some German would correct us...hahaa ....The Germans like to correct people and tell them that they are wrong..... i was right.
+Muftipufti awww,,, So sorry if i hurt your little German feelings, The Germans don,t know everything...but they know everything better. haha..You hear it every day mostly accompanied with" Der moralischer Zeigefinger" pointed in your face.....
Oh how people,s predudices show their ignorance,I am english and came to West Berlin in 1985 and have been here ever since. I don,t want to live anywhere else...Probably here longer than you have been a German...lol
Oh no, he does! He just didn't get that it wasn't Iggy's birthday but the wall's birthday which would be called something totally different in German, which David couldn't have known.
In this conversation he says that he didn't know what gone. Happen when the baby came!!!!! And Ducan then i ask myself, was he not there at the laibery?
Harald Schmidt has one, but the problem is he takes the requirments of being a tv host very seriously and is more interrested in the journalism side of his job than the joke side. Which is part of why David Bowie is such a good musician, because he doesn´t take himself too seriously. There´s a story about the host being seriously angry at one of his employees, because he made fun semi-rudely about some american singer. The host later fired that man for being that way...you can see, that host took his job very seriously.
Actually it's quite annoying if the interviewer is translating after every answer. (Or is that just my opinion?🤔) And then, it's the already commented fact that the Bowie viewers/listeners and fans probably know English
Unglaublich sympathisch! Bin dankbar, dass ich ihn 1990 zweimal live sehen durfte. R.I.P.
I love that he had humor all the time about everything. It's so nice to watch him like this and sad at the same time because he's gone and it's like he's still with us and we're trapped in this time. RIP Bowie. You are sorely missed.

Harold Schmidt is a very generous kind host
Especially to Helmut Berger :D
Oh he isn't. But he did a great interview with David.
We miss Him as Elvis, the Genie David Bowie... Tremendous voice and man. 🇩🇪🎤🎵
I could watch david bowie for ever 😍 ❤ ♥ 😀 💕 thanks for sharing this with us
Me too!❤
Deine Stimme klingt wie Musik in meinen Ohren.
Wundervoll. 😍
Miss You, David. ♥
Man, what a nice bloke...
Bowie will forever be my favorite!
einer der besten menschen überhaupt...rip david
Now it is 2022. I remember that evening in summer 2002 exactly. 20 years ago! Like yesterday...
David ist so toll, schade, dass ich zu der Zeit nicht einmal auf der Welt war 🙏🏼💞

What generousity and genious he was
So True
My favourite album is Heathen. RIP David.
I was there. :)

Big big legend.

Hat mich auch sehr gewundert wie sich Harald Schmidt mal so zurück nehmen konnte. Tatsächlich hat er mal etwas Respekt für jemanden gezeigt.
A Better Future has never been more relevant a song. Love Heathen. Great man.
miss you David Bowie
So much missed 💕🎶
Coolness
I get mesmerized whenever David speaks.
TRUE, I KEEP WATCHING ALL INTERVIEWS
So great to see, thanks
Wonderful David Bowie....
He was so lovely
Hier wirkt er viel entspannter als bei wetten das ich frag mich ob es am Alter liegt oder an Gottschalks extrovertierter art

True life experience 💯😁
& SO GREAT AT IT..WHAT A BIG LOSS

Thankfully David's humor was so THERE because the host seems to have misplaced his sense of humor (if he had one)

Awful song and lyrics but his Charisma shines through always.
Schmidt interessiert sich einen Scheiß für seinen Gast.
surprised this is on German TV and its spoken in English? Why wouldnt it be spoken in German?
Maybe I'm wrong but I think the Harald Schmidt late night was a live show. And almost every German speaks a decent english
Actually it's quite annoying if the interviewer is translating after every answer. (Or is that just my opinion?🤔) And then, it's the already commented fact that the Bowie viewers/listeners and fans probably know English
With Harald Schmidt it's OK.
Because David Bowie couldn't speak German.
