David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

"I will help you with the pain", you did David. And you continue to do that. Thank you for having appeared in this world.
Me too. At a time when I was a very young person feeling my life would soon be over.....THIS SONG. Thank you David Bowie. I miss you so, rip.
Yeah
For real
4 Years later. Yeah.
wow feeling u David.. he is so far out u have to love every word song actor father he's perfection to me.
David Bowie (this song in particular) saved my life. As a survivor of sexual abuse, I had crippling anxiety that would basically make me a vegetable (constant fatigue, vomiting, panic attacks that would last for hours, and feeling miserable). At some point in 2016, I thought of ending it all because the symptoms were just becoming unmanageable and I felt hopeless about ever being able to life normally. However...this song would always pull me out of my suicidal episodes and gave me the strength to wipe my tears and muster on. Had it not been for David Bowie, I would have ended my life before being fortunate to receive free mental health counseling from a local community college.
That's my David Bowie story ^.^
I'm so glad you're still here. Stay strong and I wish you well
Bowie was a god like that, glad you realized the world was better off with you in it
Glad you are still here sharing your story with us. Someone said we are like lonely boats sailing in the ocean, but it is nice to see the little lights of nearby boats sailing at the same time. Bowie had the gift of lighting up the whole damn sea
Im a survivor of abuse the nhs doctors that blited my life before it berly begun i grew to be damaged in pain scared alone. But i got balls steel one day you feel them when i wrap them round your head twats. Alway beware a doctor in white
I wouldnt pri in to lno anyones fishes
I’m 17 years old Japanese. Some months ago,I found Bowie and fell in love with him. But, i also found he had dead... it made me shocked and sad.
Although he has already dead, he knows my loneliness,and give the most kind words “Oh no,love,you’re not alone” over 50 years.
I cry bitterly through this video. Thank you Bowie,I’m not alone now, because I can live with your music. You’re alive in my heart.
Yeah bro
have you seen the movie labyrinth? He played the gobling king there.
@Sam lucpin No, I haven’t.thank you. I’ll try.
Best moment in the song ❤️
This song can save lives . And “Oh no, love, you’re not alone” is my favorite part
Bowie has been my therapist since the 70’s, his music an outstretched hand to help me climb out of dark places.
I know what you mean. I've even tripped while listening to David...when that was done in the 70;s . Older now and a bit more wiser ,,i hope LoL
Good then find the light then trust me it's much better than the dark give me your hand just to say Hi ❤️
Heh..
1973
Strange for me to think that a song called Rock 'n Roll Suicide once saved my life...Thank you, David. RIP...
Me too, this song really helped me
we are three then
Make it four
Fuck off there's always someone saying such things even on the oldest Bowie's works just trying to make me cry
SAVED ME TOTALLY AT THE AGE OF 13, THANKYOU DAVID XXXX
this album is keeping me alive rn
Fr he literally saved my life 4 years after he died
same here
I can second that
yes
Me too man
When he says “Oh no love! You’re not alone!” It’s makes me feel so happy and sad at the same time 🥺❤️
Same
Me too X
I BALL MY EYES OUT

He is not alone too, we all love him ❤
The final Ziggy concert: this song followed straight on from the announcement that this would be the last show ever. The drummer, Woody Woodmanson, hadn't been warned ahead of time. Watch at the very end and you'll see him toss his drumsticks away
I first saw the concert footage about 15 years ago when I was discovering Bowie, and when he got to the announcement I was like "wait, WHAT!?"
I bought this VHS in 82.
Good call !! ...I read a book about David's and the spiders for mars published in the late 80's ...and woodmansey was the only one who was not notified ...even bass player bolder knew the split was happening .
@@michaelkoszowski3716. And Woody is still the only survivor of the spiders now. Karma is a bitch

January 10 2016 - "David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18 month battle with cancer." David Bowie has been my favorite artist since I discovered him at the age of 13, over 40 years ago, he has been with me through tick and thin. R.I.P. Ziggy...
George Burrescia it saddens me that i learned about him after his death.
George Burrescia, Thank you. I didn’t know David’s day of passing. Or that it was so recent, either. Ty.
RIP, TWDuke. Been missing you and all of your manifested Selves. I hope to, one day, catch you, Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, and others, in Concert.
Same to me .. i have 54 and he is been with me # my life since 40 years ago .. then will be with me again now every days.. 💖⚡
@@philatio1744 I understand, however real artists give us something that will be enjoyed and appreciated long after they have gone. Bowie, a true artist, has left us so much to remember him by. Enjoy it.
@KaikuKaiku what the fuck do you have to gain from this? someone leaves a comment explaining their connection to a beloved artist and you try to thumb your nose at him to be edgy? Have you not heard of prerecording things? His last music video was about his death, are you going to claim that means it was all preplanned publicity? Grow the fuck up and get a life outside the internet.
I love the ‘give me your hands’ part. He’s so connected with the crowd at the point. That is a beautiful thing.

Have you seen the version of rock 'n roll suicide live In Tokyo. Wow that one is emotional and very very good
You're not alone!
This part always brings me to tears!
Gives me chills
This performance is now 50 years old. I recently got into Bowie and this specific song really touched me on a personal level. I will forever be grateful for the art he gave to us. Thank you, David.
Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful... He sang it with so much empathy..that someone out there really cares..beautiful!
@chloe Ottem-O'Connell no,his half brother committed suicide in the 1985, not in 1973
Well read
Yeah
The best of the best,.
Love u for Forever,,,
1973
oh no, love, you're not alone
Just turn on with me
this line made me feel that I wasn't alone.
fuck that gets me every time
That part always makes me want to cry, it’s so beautiful.
"Thank you very much. Bye bye, we love you."
Well if that isn't the sweetest thing
the fan that runs up and hugs him is all of us
This man was a true rock and roll star. He was making albums until the day he died. He will forever be known as a legend.
The song says it all
Man was a true artist, brilliant, courageous, mysterious, empathetic, raging... Bowie was the best... He broke all the stereotypes, broke all the rules... Rock n roll to its fullest
@@uncleruckus3149 as well regarded as he is, I still don't know if the general public quite recognizes how brilliant this guy was.
@@paulburgess8909 I agree, they probably think he was brilliant... But they don't know just how brilliant
You goddam right
this performance turned me from a casual listener of his to a fan. he was a genius at crafting songs, but his stage performance was otherworldly. the Starman has returned to the stars from whence he came. I love you David Bowie.
@@AysimEParkan yes, Mick Ronson deserved a lot more credit, that's for sure! But it's still Bowie's interpretation, (and I'm sure he had a lot of input with the arrangements) and he was fantastic. I think because he was a naturally gifted actor, and they always say the best singers are also actors, or actors make the best singers, (or whatever they say!) So talented (both of them!)
me too.
@@melizmatea Dont forget Trevor and Woody, they were abandoned after this
1973
This song hurts me, in a good way.
I know you could say it's parasocial, and that musicians can't care about their fans on a personal level, and for any other song I'd agree- but something about this one just feels so incredibly genuine. I can't listen to it without tearing up, no matter how many times I hear it
Its powerful, I understand. There was a whole month where I always cried to this song.
He didn't know us, but I don't think that means he didn't care. You can't make art like this without understanding what people are going through, at least a little bit.
Bowie didn't know any of us, but I do think he wrote this song for people *like* us.
@@firetarrasque4667 Well put!
3:57 lol the fan ran to hug David Bowie but the security came fast
I thought I was the only one to notice that ! 😂
@@jack_myers xD
Oh that lucky guy...
That must be the best day of his life
Lol David kinda hugged him back
Your not alone..........Bowies greatest 3 word lyrics to us all....................
It surely comes from the Jacques Brel’s song, « Jef » « t’es pas tout seul » you’re not alone.
And he taught us to be heroes...just for one day ❤
Thank U.Caly
@@TT-xg7gp no copyright on three of the most common words in any language ;) just sayin.
A J of course I didn’t mean that at all, being inspired is not stealing, but Bowie covered Brel several times in the 70s so it’s possible.
“you're not alone” “'cause you're wonderful”
Yes! I’m not alone. I’m wonderful.
We’re not alone!! We’re wonderful!!
This song taught me affirming myself.
Thanks David. You are my lifesaver.
Isn't he? Life changing he was.

R.I.P Ziggy Stardust, who died 50 years ago today.
And of course, R.I.P David Bowie (Still hard to write that seven years later.)
"Oh no love, you're not alone"
The cigarette burned way too fast. We lost a living legend today.
Yes we did ....
Bowie was a true genius . I think all of us are extremely lucky to have lived and witnessed the mans genius first hand in the same lifetime ....
no he didn't Kiera. His birthday was on the 8th.
+Kiera Jones No,he didn't
I'd remove the "living" part
I just discovered David Bowie like a week ago and this song has already done more for my self esteem since then than every power song I’ve ever listened to collectively. How does he do it? “Oh no love, you’re not alone” and “give me your hands, cause you’re wonderful” are just delivered so genuinely that I actually believe him.
Well you're thinking of this song as just blown my mind in a very clever way making me think again with interest thank you
1973
Welcome to Planet Bowie. We're so happy you're here and you are so very loved.
When I was younger I stayed home from school one day. I wasn't sick but I felt like I was. I had stopped taking my anti depressant a month before and hadn't slept in a week. I was curled up on the bathroom floor and was contemplating suicide like I often did back then. I had my music on shuffle and just when I had gotten up to get the pills out of the cabinet this song came on. I stopped to listen because I wasn't going to interrupt a David Bowie song with my death. This man was sent to us by a force that could crush god.
Evelyn Setsuko I have felt very alone but this man's music even after his death keeps me going. i felt every bit of the you're not alone and you're wonderful as I just heard this particular song for the first time.
Evelyn Setsuko even as an older man when I feel that nobody really understands I can just tell from this music that someone did understand and felt empathy and kindness and he was such an electrifying performer everything about him exudes life.
What a great comment "I wasn't going to interrupt a David Bowie song with my death". Respect.
Evelyn Setsuko ohhhh pity you
You lost me at the last paragraph,otherwise powerful stuff.
One of Bowie's most poignant and evocative songs , evoking the senseless deaths of countless young rock stars who had died because of alcohol and drug excess or had committed suicide . Jimi Hendrix , Janis Joplin , Jim Morrison , Tim Buckley st al
Darby Crash , Sid Vicious , Gram Parson , Elvis , Blond owl allen , big bear of Canned heat, Rory Gallagher , Freddy King and so on ..may their soul rest in peace and they shall jammin together somewhere
@@heartbreakkid5757 I hope to one day make it to that jam sesh..
Don’t forget Marc Bolan and Kurt Cobain. 💕
Marc Bolan died due to serious car accident caused by his drunk girlfriend behind the wheel, who had offered picking him up to home. That wasn't suicide or something like overdosing drugs or alcohol... But I know what you wanted to say, they are unforgiven
Most of them faked their deaths.
This man has inspired me in so much. Words can not describe how emotional this performance of this song makes me. He's inspired me to be the way I want to be and brush off the people who say it's odd or not okay. As I am 13, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet him or express how much of an impact he's made on me but the fact that I was alive for his last few years is more than I could've asked for. Thank you David.
"Oh no love, you're not alone"
Same here. :^)
I'm 25, started listening to Bowie over a year ago, I wish sooner but at least it was before he died. Bowie is without a doubt the most underrated all time. People don't understand how great he was. In the end most music artist stop making stuff on par with music from their prime. Bowie was doing that, Blackstar and the Next Day. And a lot of 90s and 2000s stuff is pretty good. The body of work he left behind is better than anyone's. A top 10 David Bowie list is so hard to do, I did and ended up with a top 20 basically. Bowie more so should have a top 50. I would close to 30 Bowie songs are top 10 quality. A dying Bowie was still the most innovative artist, smart artists would take note from Blackstar.

I'm only 3 and a bit but can already read and write and most of all appreciate the music of David Bowie! About 50 years ago I met him in my previous life - i was quite old then and he was about 20 - he wrote a song about me called the laughing gnome!
Boy, this crowd was really into their role as rock-n-roll maenads or something. Looks like three different times that fans almost knocked him down by grabbing onto him. Big props to Bowie for A) being cool enough to keep taking hands anyway, and B) keeping his footing, because though you can't really tell from this video, I'm pretty sure he had those high platform boots on during this show...
+Rebecca B Thank God for those security guards!
This show he announced as his last show ever as Ziggy Stardust
1973
'oh no love you're not alone'. it's in these times with the absence of Bowie when that line brings the most comfort. he is still out there, still here for us. beautiful song, incredible performance.
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Ohhh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide
You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow
Don't let the milk float ride your mind
They're so natural - religiously unkind
Oh no love! you're not alone
You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care
Oh no love! you're not alone
No matter what or who you've been
No matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone
Just turn on with me and you're not alone
Let's turn on with me and you're not alone
Let's turn on and be not alone
Gimme your hands cause you're wonderful
Gimme your hands cause you're wonderful
Oh gimme your hands.
R.I.P BOWIE , You're not alone!
Man we really need to have more live videos from Bowie in his Ziggy Stardust period. There are no much of them at RUclips. And they are amazing! Bowie had such a way of connecting with the people... You will be forever with us David Robert Jones.
I'm 56. I've been divorced twice. Because of my "head being tangled up" I have been fighting through depression for a long while. This song is so very uplifting! There are many religious but unkind people. They say hurtful words or they judge piously or...they leave you alone. Too blessed to be stressed by those not acting like "shiny, happy, people". Thank God I know many kind and compassionate people who are NOT like that at all. Just sometimes, there are things I cannot begin to share. Depths of hell type memories or emotions and failures.
I love this song! "You are not alone, you're wonderful!" "Take my hand.". I really appreciate his smile at the end when he says thank you very much we love you... that is all any of us can hope for in life.
He was one of the first to bring attention to things like suicide. The lyric "you're not alone" is so beautifully optimistic. This doesn't glorify suicide, it does its best to dissuade it.
Favorite Album of all time!
+tlilbit one of the best, but not favorite of all the time
Cowboyangel You can’t pick his favorite you fucking blockhead.
Already in my all time top 5!!
when I feel down, I come back and watch this. In this performance Bowie has put his own personal suffering into the second person. After the first part of the song we are weak. Then he says "give me your hands" for the first time. Suddenly we are strong again. It's a "hero's journey" of a song.
Определенно,одна из лучших его песен. Скольким людям он дал надежду этой песней. И себе тоже, я думаю
Me too 💛💛💛💛
Yes. His best song.
Nearly 50 years old ….still my favourite …oh no love ,your not alone 👨🎤give me your hands …
RIP, GIVE ME YOUR HANDS, YOU ARE WONDERFUL
This song always gives me a lump in my throat and my eyes water.
RIP David Bowie.
If I ever get a tattoo
I would get
“Oh no love your not alone”
This line literally saved my line and this song helped me so much
Thank you Bowie for everything
Normally I don't correct spellings online, but since you're gonna get a tattoo of this line, make sure it's *you're not alone.
1973
i think that if I been in the concert,when this song finished I cried like a baby.
No too long ago that i got interested in Bowie's music. I think i know him since i was in my 20's, but i was SO distracted by the mainstream music of that moment, that i totally ignored him. I started with his greatest hits: space oddity, starman, heroes, ashes to ashes, golden years, and a large etcetera. Last night i heard his 'The rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from mars', and finally understood why he's huge. I can't describe the emotions i felt in every song. I can't wait to discover his whole discography.
Jorge Valdez If you want to get into Bowie, definitely try this one ruclips.net/video/oP2SS8ggLtU/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/U-AMec7yr7c/видео.html
This was the first Bowie song I ever heard, the first track of The rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. I bought that album as a 16 year old in 72 or 73, because its cover fascinated me. It began a love affair with his music that hasn’t ended. At first I had to keep it hidden, as a working- class lad whose mates were all into Deep Purple, Black Sabbath etc. When I told a girl I liked that I was into Bowie, she cut me dead. Changes….
Thank you David, for making everyone feel better. And thank you Mick Ronson for being such an amazing guitarist
dear david, one year ago you leaved us, but we are not alone because our hands are still with yours. thank you for everything. I miss you a lot. Paola.
I Cried When i Was in Pain lonely im 21 But I was not alone no matter who i was you helped me with the pain cause I turned on with u You Really Saved my Life ❤️🙏🏼 I dance on this song with happiness
Whenever I'm sad I'm listening to his songs and suddenly I become better. Greatest talent.
Fellow Bowie lovers, aswell as a lot of you guys, this song saved my life more than once. Bowie lives on and will live forever. We are rock n roll suicides, and hell we are so fucking strong. I'd like to say am here for any of you guys, if you need to talk or whatever, hit me up. This is the least I can do for my brothers and sisters, sharing the love and art of Bowie. It just feels right. OH NO LOVE, YOU'RE NOT ALONE!
Yeah, this song saved my life
tnx you Ziggy
best wishes from Saint-Petersburg
upt. this song saved my live another time, now i have David's lightning on my arm, thanks mr. Bowie, you fcking cool
David Jones was born to perform and entertain....and he did that with everything he had...right to the end...thanks for everything....exit stage left....R.I.P. Starman

..and you have Burned so Brightly..
He didn't die THAT young though.
Ive had my share. I’ll help you with the pain. Thank you David. You did. For over 35 years
he obviously wasn't just writing a random song and then singing it, you could tell that it was really coming from his heart, this song shows so much empathy, we all miss you dearly, David ❤
RIP David Bowie, a true legend!
Can’t believe how long ago this was
Miss this man sooo much
I’m 62
My grand child runs around singing Bowie Cos his mum sings to him …
And that’s what we need to do Keep DB alive in every generation
Happy 2023 guys.. xx 💋
Miss him everyday
This performance is even better than the record !!!! It's outstandingly soul grabbing .... And What a VOICE ! Unique !
I could listen to him on and on again, a thousand times...
Love him for ever ❤️
He ll never die in our hearts ....
Happy 70th birthday, David Bowie!
Oh Bowie ! Your wonderful !
Angel are you home on your planet? I love you as do many. You will live in our hearts for ever more. You are one of a kind, a walking piece of art. I have loved you all my life, and I am so gutted today, but God is real and I believe you live on. But the stars look very different today,...
I remember the first time I was listening to this song, it was passively playing while I was going through some really tough times. A lot was going on in my life and I felt extremely overwhelmed and depressed. Then out of nowhere I hear " Oh no love you're not alone". That was exactly what I needed at that point in my life and to think it came from a man I never met. David Bowie was more than a man he was an inspiration to all of the outcasts of the world. The man who sold the world is the man who saved a lot of people's souls. Thank you starman, you may be gone, but your legacy will never be forgotten
@Tyler Schroeder Beautifully said. Tears in my eyes.........
When I was 16 years old, I joined his concert in Tokyo. That was my first concert and really fantastic. I remember this song was the final after encore. He is still my hero even now.
This song literally saved me in my darkest days. I still listen to it everytime I feel down, and it brings me back to life.
R.I.P David Bowie ... Bye bye we love you too
★ ★ ★
Goddamit he’s so effortlessly talented - great sense of humour too, I’d of killed to be at that concert!
He was so sweet too - I love his "bye bye, we love you!"
everytime I watch this concert after this song is done I cry like a baby
SeñorSussex It's 3AM here in France and I'm crying alone in my bed... but as he says "you're not alone"
awwww ❤
LadyRStardust We are not alone. We are wonderful.
Giandomenico De Mola We gave our hands ⭐️
I’m good until he says “oh no, love, you’re not alone!” And then I LOOSE IT
When he said 'oh no love you're not alone' I started to cry
Rest in peace, David. This is all I can do in honor of you. You'll never die in our memories....
Some one commented somewhere 'Bowie is not a genius. Mozart and Van Gogh are geniuses.'
Guess what ? Mozart and Van Gogh were not considered geniuses in their life time.
And as all us Bowie 'genius fans' know- he was, is, and always will be, one. Really happy to be part of the elite that know it. I have got something in common with you all. A great club to be in. Cannot thank you enough David Bowie. You transformed my life and your music did, is, and always will, turn me on. Thank god for you. x
these concert videos are keeping me alive
'You're so natural religiously unkind' ..and then it breaks lose, every time for me. I'm not alone.
He’s just so beautiful. God I miss him.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE DAVID BOWIE SONG AND THIS VERSION GIVES ME ALL TYPES OF CHILLS. HIS DRUMMER...KILLED IT!!! #LONGLIVEBOWIE #GIMMIEYOURHANDSCUZYOUREWONDERFUL
My favourite too! Have you seen the video of him doing a sound check for an appearance on one of those morning shows - you know, their summer concert series or whatever...the fans who were there yell out to do this song for his sound check and he does! He probably hadn't sung it in person in years and I bet it was the last time. I wish I had been there! I think it was so sweet of him to do it for them. He couldn't remember all the words and he stopped early (probably because it got much higher at that point) but it was so amazing. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/LkxXFhWNDTw/видео.html
Yeah, I thought this might possibly happen to my boyfriend- the one who got away-but I believe he is living and I pray he is well, happy and doing so well. I have loved-truly loved in that young w ay-yet nearly 50 years later, he still comes Ito my dreams! And, sometimes, my daydreams. Wow! Thank you, Bowie. And thanks for who put this together. For all those saved lives- thrive! Please!
This beautiful creature got me thru all my heartbreak as a teen, a young adult & now an old woman 👵 . I'll be playing David Bowie songs at my funeral.
58years old and still lovin it,favourite is all the madmen though.
2:46 I just love how he actually grabs some hands of the fans
“thank you very much. bye, bye we love you.” and we love you too bowie, we always will
I don't usually cry when I listen to music and ive grown up listening to Bowie but somehow this is the first time I heard this song and it gives me hope and makes me want to actually live and be able to push though harsh times. Thank you
I realized we are not alone.
Thanks Bowie and this song, I was not rock ‘n’ roll suicide.
What do you say if a song and a performance is beyond great? David Bowie.
literally hottest man ever. pure, raw talent. helped me through the worst part of my life. i’m still reliant on his music to this day, and i’m not out of that rough patch yet. oh well, guess im just a rock n roll suicide.
I'm from Belarus. We love you David!
David Bowie and Elvis Presley : both born on the 8th January . What a coincidence the two most iconic pop/rock legends should share the same birth date .
Bowie was a huge Elvis fan. He wrote Golden Years for him to perform but EP turned it down. I know Bowie went to see him in concert. He said he had to see him perform live and watch his process. I wonder if they met?
+ThefightingCelt Bowie was channeling Elvis for the Freddie Mercury tribute concert when he perfomed "TVC15". One of the most astoundingly beautiful things I've ever watched.
+ThefightingCelt There's no report that they met. But they were on each other's minds. www.theguardian.com/music/2016/jan/21/elvis-presley-david-bowie-produce-record-request-country-star-dwight-yoakam
+Lady BlackStardust if they did meet Bowie would most likely have not talked about their conversation. Bowie was private and a class act in my opinion.
winogirlll I doubt there would be any reason to be private about a meeting of the King with Mr. Jones! Elvis died too soon in '77, only 42 years old. Bowie also left us too soon. But what a legacy they both left.
He was such a rock star, one of the greatest songs ever from a true musical genius.
“Oh, whoa, whoa, oh, You’re a rock n’ roll suicide” 🤘

We are old AF now, and David is dead. They were good years, gone too soon. Treasure the days my young friends, they go by quickly.
Just Ran from home, struggling with depression, and crying near the street. This song feels as if Bowie was guiding me and reconforting me. LOVE everyone
Este tema es maravilloso, es un grito a levantarse y no dejarse morir por nada...
Imagine having the talent to write one of these songs, never mind album after album.
It's been a year already. Sad day today and forever.
Yes indeed.......
Two years...
Three years now
And four.

Sometimes those simple words save lives, as they've saved mine.
The intro to this version of Rock 'n' Roll Suicide is unmatched. I always cry by the first minute.
That album has so many great moments, great riffs, great lyrics that are forever quotable
seen you several times in concert, RIP the thin white duke, never forgotten.....
I love how at the end some random guy comes up and hugs him :-)
Aaanndd then some security guard pushes him off of David (-:
I love that he says "Bye-bye, we love you!" at the end! He's so sweet!
I really miss such music icons in today’s world….❤
I was 15 when I first heard of this beautiful being. My sister thought me all about him, slowly I fell in love. I found myself burying myself with his songs and lyrics. It gave me strength, love and will. I'll always wish I met him, or even assisted a concert. But he will always live on in my heard and mind 💓 bless you my bowie❤

Still miss you Ziggy you have been the voice of my high school years which I still can't believe are now over you were there for me whenever I was picked on or rejected you told me that I would eventually find that person that would love me for who I was and that I wasn't alone (I still haven't found her but you always give me hope) hopefully someday I'll be able to tell you everything face to face with much better memories to go along with it see you on the other side old pal
