    Love the fact that Bowie saw this and apparently he thought it was brilliant. When working on Blackstar, guitarist Ben Monder said David thought it was hilarious and made everyone watch it.

    • @Schmedricks
      @Schmedricks 2 года назад +111

      Unless this is not the original video, this was posted on January 12th 2016. Bowie died on the 10th of January 2016, and Blackstar was released on the 8th. I'd imagine it's true though since the Ben Monder story seems difficult to pull out of thin air, would be interesting to see where it first came from.

      Your negation of this one does not promote the other; people will probably not be influenced to watch the other just to equalise views. Venture to guess David's "Wild is the Wind" made more money than the original by Nina Simone, but that doesn't mean his should be disparaged, or that there weren't people who went and bought a Nina Simone record after hearing Station to Station.

It's just so childish and yet one of the funniest things either of us has ever seen.*
    *What makes it even funnier somehow, is that I've been a record producer for 30 years, and my dad is a retired Chief Superintendent from the Met police in London. Neither of us SHOULD find this video hilarious... but we just do! LOL. If it's not won some kind of award, it damn well should have. Absolutely brilliant!*
