    I LOVE Vega's gestures during this. They add a warmth depth, as does the orchestra.

    I used to get so annoyed that many people thought that Nirvana wrote this song. Great version!

    I like this way more than I expected to. it's a very pleasant surprise.
    I've been a Suzanne Vega fan for many years and a Bowie fan for longer.

      Agreed. I too am a huge fan of Suzanne Vega and David Bowie. Of course it helps that the 3 musicians accompanying her were in Bowie's band. I also loved her cover of Lou Reed's Walk On The Wild Side.

    Brilliant rendition! I love Suzanne Vega, but LOVE Bowie even more! I sing this song in the shower everyday, along with Ashes to Ashes. I think my Gen Z neighbors know who Bowie is now.

    Superb version. When I met Vega in Cambridge, 2017, we chatted about Bowie and how some members of his band had backed her, too.

    年末にデビッドボウィとビングクロスビーの Little drummer boyを聞いていた。そして、新年になって、この動画に出会えたことに感謝!    I used to listen to David Bowie &Bing Crosby 's "Little drummer boy" in the end of the year. This year ,I can find this fantastic tune!! Thanks a lot!!!

    @andycordy5190 2 года назад +6

    I really like the way she characterises the voices in this song, keeping the mystery of it but introducing an element of mischievous glee I don't hear in the original. It was the habit of the composer to reimagine his own songs, thus keeping them fresh across decades. I've no idea how he felt about covers he'd heard but I think he would have respected this highly polished version of his tireless and timeless classic.

  • @theDaoistBean

    It's like showing up at a party and seeing that two groups of friends from different parts of your life are both there, found each other before you got there and are having the best time...and it makes you remember why you thought they were all awesome to begin with. One of my favorite Bowie songs performed by one of my favorite female musicians and one of the best band lineups he put together...and the orchestration has some great things going on in there too. Bravo!!!

      They were out together again this summer. Saw them in my hometown. Came to see Gerry almost as much as Vega. The final encore was Lou Reed's Walk On The Wild Side. It was great, but now I wish they'd played Man Who Sold The World. It would have made so much sense!

    @morningstar9233 2 года назад +4

    Orchestral rearrangements can often be overblown but Vega reins it in here with her pragmatic approach. In no small way aided by the back to basics guitar of Gail Anne Dorsey and Gerry Leonard. A deferent interpretation laying orchestral laurels at the feet of the untamed original which serves rather than stifles it's uncanny nature.

  • @waltergoodman9354

    We passed upon the stair
    We spoke of was and when
    Although I wasn't there
    He said I was his friend
    Which came as a surprise
    I spoke into his eyes
    I thought you died alone
    A long long time ago
    Oh no, not me
    We never lost control
    You're face to face
    With the man who sold the world
    I laughed and shook hand
    And made my way back home
    I searched for form and land
    For years and years I roamed
    I gazed a gazeless stare
    We walked a million hills
    I must have died alone
    A long, long time ago
    Who knows?
    Not me
    I never lost control
    You're face to face
    With the man who sold the world
    Who knows?
    Not me
    We never lost control
    You're face to face
    With the man who sold the world
    Thanks, that was a David Bowie song
    What's next?
    I didn't screw it up, did I?
    Okay, but here's another one I could screw up
    What is it?
    Am I gonna do this by myself?
    Yeah, he should do it by himself
    Do it by yourself
    Okay, well
    I think I'll try it in a different key, I'll try it in a normal key
    Yeah
    If it sounds bad, these people are just gonna have to wait
    Do you have a smoke?
    Okay
