David Bowie is, hands down, the greatest artist to have ever walked this earth. The guy is the true definition of an “Icon”, a legendary performer of “sound and vision” who put his entire body and soul into every bit of his art that he ever created. Such a fantastic performer for many decades and always evolving his music and his look and stage presence through the decades he was around for until his untimely death. The absolute coolest and most down to earth musician/artist to ever be here with us on this planet. It’s never too late to discover all his great music from when he first started up until his sudden death. We are so lucky to have had such an artist here with us and the amount of music he created during his time is mind blowing. The most real and truest definition of what many would call “an extremely talented and gifted genius”
David Bowie crossed all genres.spoke out on issues,he even confronted MTV during an interview asking them why they didn't have black artists music videos on their channel. Married one of the most beautiful black women ever in Iman. I think they were married in the early 90's up until his death.
MTV was a rock format channel. I'd like to see soul train have Led Zeppelin on but that would be silly. Artists wanted the exposure MTV offered and of course they caved to the pressure.
@Stu let's be honest. The diversity pressure is only applied to white people. There is no pressure for other groups to diversify. Something can always be too white but never too black or brown. They can form thier own enterprises and clicks with zero pressure to accommodate white people. Diversity ruined MTV and I like most genres of music.
@Stu Has nothing to do with pity,its fact. My comment is flawless truth. Your liberal psycho analysis falls short. Diversity is just for whites to celebrate. BET,BLACK CONGRESSIONAL CAUCUS, BLACK COLLEGES.The list of black in the title is endless. None of these organizations make any attempt to diversify. Your bleeding heart,bending of the knee and butt kissing to people of color is nauseating. I have friends of a few different races and they know where I stand. They are at my house frequently. Who do you rub shoulders with?
Asia and BJ please go down the David Bowie "rabbit hole" there is so much more to discover...an innovative and original artist....I nearly got to meet this man when I was a kid the neighbours were set to have him over for dinner but the mom was embarrassed about their modest home and said no way...what a shame as Bowie was from a working class background and without pretence so would not have cared....much love from New Zealand.
David Bowie was an English singer-songwriter & actor. He constantly reinvented himself to stay current over nearly 5 decades. His first big hit was "Space Oddity" in 1969. He has had a lot of great songs including "Starman", "Ziggy Stardust", "Rebel Rebel", "Young Americans", "Changes", "Fame", "Golden Years", "Ashes To Ashes", "Under Pressure", Let's Dance", "Modern Love", "China Girl", "Heroes" etc.
@@peterdrew5068 Re: Fame I'm in my 60's been a Bowie fan for years. My 'O' level oration (not the most academic) way back in 1975 was a talk on Bowie. Every album. Every book. Blah blah blah, Any way enough of that. Lennon on Fame? Not actually a co-writer but did get a credit. Bowie was a massive Beatles/Lennon fan and covered Across The Universe on Young Americans.. Lennon turned up during the recording of Fame and just hung out. Bowie gave him a 'Co' just for the inspiration it gave him just being in the studio. Fame's 'Riff' is actually a Carlos Alomar riff (From a track of his own called Foot Stompin' I think?) that Bowie used, with Alomars Blessing obviously, as he was Bowies musical director at the time. I hope that helps.
it seemed like everything David Bowie did while we were blessed to have him with us....he was secretly letting out little hints and winks to us all that he really was from somewhere else in the galaxy, another dimension entirely. He just happened to land here on Earth way back when, kinda dug what he saw, liked the scenes we had going on so he chose to remain here and entertain us endlessly with his amazing musical talent, his style, his unique brand of 'only I can pull this look off' kind of cool. God how we miss him. :)
Bowie actually wrote this song for Elvis Presley, they was on the same RCA record label and he was asked if he could write a song for him, Elvis declined the song saying it wasn't right for him at that moment in time but thanked him for the song in a letter he sent him Bowies ex wife says he wrote it for her but Bowie said he didn't it was meant for Elvis,
One of my favorites by Bowie! That's John Lennon singing the "angel" parts in the background, by the way. This came out during his Thin White Duke persona, from his album "Station To Station", that is if my memory is serving me LOL.
So many David Bowie songs for you to discover. Some of his more popular are Heroes, Fame, Rebel Rebel, Modern Love, Lets Dance,, China Girl, Space Oddity, The Man Who Sold The World... the list is long.
your thinking of 'the wonder years' and the song you are trying to remember is 'with a little help from my friends' sung by joe cocker. piece of trivia - did you know david bowie was the first white artiste to appear on soul train?
No matter when or what he was up to, the best musicians we're a part of it. He could sing and he was a professional. Saw him live once on the Serious Moonlight tour in 84 maybe ? I was not that into the album but the show was impressive.
Bowie was a one-off true artist. He constantly changed it up. Many of his fans are only catching up now to some of his incarnations. Dude put out over 25 Studio albums. His body of work is insane!
This is one of my favorites by him. (His last name is pronounced with a long O ... like Joey). I'm an avid fan of your channel - keep doing it. Bowie was usually ahead of trends.
You know which channel I think is super underrated? Metal Piano Music. The guy spends weeks composing classic metal songs into classical/relaxing piano pieces and he hardly gets any views. I love his arrangement of Painkiller by Judas Priest. That guy really deserves millions of followers
I saw DB twice, once with Iggy Pop when he played keyboards in March 1977, then on the Serious Moonlight tour in 1983. Between 1970-80, he never put a foot wrong. "Golden Years" remains a stone-cold classic. It lit up the dance floors in 1975 and still sounds great in 2022. He was a class act. RIP
I grew up listening to Bowie all my youth. My dad was the biggest Bowie fan I knew, and we were both gutted when he died. He was just this magic guy who achieved anything he put his mind to.
Bowie: pronounced BOW like a bow tie or bow & arrow then add the E. BOW-E! Asia & BJ: PLEASE ✔ check out more! 🌟Fame (is funky as hell - banger) 🌟China Girl 🌟Let's Dance (with SRV on guitar) 🌟Heroes 🌟Modern Love 🌟Dancing In The Street (w/Mick Jagger)
@Wayne North Bowie was far ahead of his time. When he lived in Berlin, he made 3 albums, Low, Lodger and heroes. He made Low with Gary Numan, and it was a precursor to all the DJ dance album's.
This man.....what can you say? David Bowie is something beyond your regular music star, or even music icon. From the music to the videos.....and throw the classic Labyrinth into the mix. Something about this man was beyond next level. I am glad you two decided to give him a shot. He is a musical master.
David Bowie ( Bow- E ) Gotta get the name right man ! You have the best of the best here... Singer/songwriter, talented musician.... Reinvented himself many times over many decades and for sure... one of the greatest artists in Rock-n-Roll ✌😎 Check out his album... David Live ( my favorite ) Hits from start to finish 😉
Congratulations and respect. I've watched many reactions to this song and most people think golden years means their youth. You are the first I have come across that realise that your golden years are older years when you have carried out your responsibilities and can be free to "live your best life" according to your own wishes. At 72 I'm in that place now and doing just that. Best believe.
David Bowie is my all time favorite artist. He dabbled in all styles of music, fashion and art in general. He’s the reason why I became a musician. Bowie was the second white artist to perform on Soul Train. Elton John was the first just months before. FYI - That video you guys watched was not an official video, it’s a mash up of most of Bowie’s music videos, concerts and films he did. Fan video pretty much. And David “Bowie” is usually pronounced “Boh-wee” not “Boo-ee” PS. Golden Girls is the shit. Great show!
You should hear his last album. Black Star. He was dying...and he knew it. He poured every ounce of creativity into that album, creating his best album, hands down. He made dying into art!
Oh my God BJ, I have heard this song for years and never thought about the fact that he was singing about being your best in your Golden Years. Love you perspective on this song. Love you and Miss Asia.
David Bowie is the BEST ever! Followed him and bought everything he released on every form of media since the beginning of the 70s. When I woke up to the announcement of his death, it was like a gut punch that wouldn't quit. It's been six years and I'm still in denial.
This track Bowie performed on Soul Train being the 2nd white artist on Soul Train, Elton John was the first one earlier same year 1975 .... as I remember it
This is my favorite Bowie song!! This the song David actually wrote for Elvis, but Elvis ended up declining it. I would gave loved to have heard how Elvis would have done it, but love Bowie's version!! They also shared the same Birthday, Jan 8th. Other Bowie - Fame, and Starman are my other favorites.
Actually, It was "Col" Tom Parker who declined to pass the song to Elvis. That grifter wrecked Elvis' career after the 1968 comeback special. What a shame because Elvis would have done a great job with the track.
That show was called Wonder Years with Fred Savage This song was in the movie “A Knights Tale “ with Heath Ledger along with some Queen / Styx and thin Lizzy songs in the soundtrack
He constantly changed his image and music with every album, that video is a compilation spanning six decades of creativity. BTW BJ David Bowie is pronounced with an 'o' not an 'oo' sound.
David Bowie would employ a very diverse set of musicians and backing vocalists over the years. He would sometimes randomly call up musicians he liked to be part of his music over the years.
BJ my dude, it was the wonder years with Fred Savage. 😉 It was prolly my favorite show as well during my early teens. I haven't thought about that show in a long time, great reference homey🤘🏼🤘🏼y'all keep on killin it!
Someone commented below about the show you were thinking of being "The Wonder Years". There was a TV miniseries called "Golden Years" which made use of this song. It ran on CBS in the summer of 1991. The show was about an elderly janitor who survived an explosion at the laboratory where he worked. Afterwards, he started aging in reverse.
Your golden years are when you are young. Enjoy them before your hair goes silver. You will have your memories to hold forever. Tomorrow is my Birthday I am to be 69. I have many golden years stored away. I have been blessed. Happy New Year!!
David was the rock manifestation an entertainer and movie star crossing genres married to a super model. He checked all the boxes in his fantastic career.
The unpredictable, eccentric and utter genius that is David Bowie in another turn into his soul and take on human life. He is just so all over the place and has such a rich catalog to explore. When you feel like a little rock from him, try his Ziggy Stardust era with the Spiders From Mars as his band. Glam Rock at its best, with the amazing Mick Ronson on lead guitar. Try Moonage Daydream, Ziggy Stardust and Suffragate City for a roaring good time that really rocks out, their live show in 1973 for Ziggy Stardust is legendary. Enjoy! 🎵
David Bowie is my favorite male artist of all time. There's never been anyone quite like him. This was an awesome reaction. I hope you will do some more Bowie songs. Some of my favorites are "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)," "Ziggy Stardust," "Life On Mars," "Starman," "Rebel Rebel," and "Let's Dance." Thanks.

Us black folk back in the 70's so appreciated David Bowie's stuff...We knew he used many soul brothas in his band and spoke out against racism.
Including a very young Luther
He always worked with black artists all through his career. U need to out more Bowie. 🌝
First white artist on soul train for a reason
I think first was Elton John

Bowie & Prince walk hand-in-hand.
Yup a cultural icon on every level
He's one of only a handful I'd say is in that realm. Prince is another.
!00% everything you said and might I add that he was soooo freaking gorgeous!!!
Yup!
David Bowie crossed all genres.spoke out on issues,he even confronted MTV during an interview asking them why they didn't have black artists music videos on their channel. Married one of the most beautiful black women ever in Iman. I think they were married in the early 90's up until his death.
Yes and very happily from all impressions .Both blessed .
That’s an interview you’ll need to see👌🏾👏🏾

Correct me if I'm wrong but, John Lennon joined Mr. Bowie in the song "Fame."
@@zeppelinfan9360 I think John helped with some of the writing, backing vocals & guitar.
And more!

Not actually a co-writer but did get a credit. Bowie was a massive Beatles/Lennon fan and covered Across The Universe on Young Americans..
Lennon turned up during the recording of Fame and just hung out. Bowie gave him a 'Co' just for the inspiration it gave him just being in the studio.

I hope that helps.
@@MrJambug why are you telling me this?
David Bowie always reinvented himself. He had so many personas.
David Bowie had a long career, filled with change and re-invention.
Always hip, breaking boundaries, fearless.
This is used in the big feast scene in A Knights Take with Heath Ledger. They dance to it. It's awesome. Bowie is my rock god.
His death shocked the world. That’s how big he was.
Nobody will ever be cooler than David Bowie!!!

Except maybe Ziggy Stardust! ;)
GREATEST ... Same Here ... I hope my YT Bowie songs makes him smile from far far away.
Indeed
FACT.
So glad you younger folks are liking the music we grooved to in our prime ..our GOLDEN YEARS.....the 70s was GOOD to music!!!
Album was recorded in September 1975
David Bowie was so BADASS. What a range in his vocals on this track. He's was a great Baritone. Smooth sexy performer. R.I.P.
Bowie.... one of the GREATEST artists ever! Fame, Heroes, China Girl, Man Who Sold the World, Let's Dance, Young Americans.....list goes on and on
My favourite male singer and miss him everyday. This is David's funky era but his earlier stuff is my favourite. Please do The Jean Genie
Bowie was the ultimate legend in the music industry!!! He was the master of all genre's of music!!!!!!
Bowie is timeless. The layers he used made his songs so.
Bowie actually wrote this song for Elvis Presley, they was on the same RCA record label and he was asked if he could write a song for him, Elvis declined the song saying it wasn't right for him at that moment in time but thanked him for the song in a letter he sent him
Bowies ex wife says he wrote it for her but Bowie said he didn't it was meant for Elvis,
For Angie everything is about Angie
Why would Elvis want to sing a song about Bowie's wife (Angel).
My favorite Bowie songs are Moonage Daydream, Station to Station, Fame, StarMan, and Lady Grinning Soul💜
One of my favorites by Bowie! That's John Lennon singing the "angel" parts in the background, by the way. This came out during his Thin White Duke persona, from his album "Station To Station", that is if my memory is serving me LOL.
I thought John Lennon sang background vocals on the song Fame ?
@@blackberrycobbler4me He did. But both songs were recorded during the same recording session so Lennon sang on both songs.
One of my all time favorite opening lyrics:. Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere
So many David Bowie songs for you to discover. Some of his more popular are Heroes, Fame, Rebel Rebel, Modern Love, Lets Dance,, China Girl, Space Oddity, The Man Who Sold The World... the list is long.
Young Americans
The show was called "The Wonder Years" and the song was by Joe Cocker and was called "A Little Help From My Friends"! You should do a reaction to it!
To me Bowie was like a crystal prism, always reflecting a different light, in a good way!!!.....
What a great way to put it!
GREATEST ... Same Here ... I hope my YT Bowie songs makes him smile from far far away.
You guys absolutely need to do more Bowie.....the man is a musical genius
We never knew what to expect from the next Bowie hit. We just knew we'd be captivated and it would be amazing.
GREATEST ... Same Here ... I hope my YT Bowie songs makes him smile from far far away.
My favorite! So many layers. Anyone remember Heath Ledger and Shannyn Sossamon dancing to Golden Years in A Knights Tale? So good!
your thinking of 'the wonder years' and the song you are trying to remember is 'with a little help from my friends' sung by joe cocker. piece of trivia - did you know david bowie was the first white artiste to appear on soul train?
Now you know - blue eyed soul, baby! 🤣 "Fame" was another big hit that crossed cultures👍💕
His best song, in my opinion. And he has many!
Bowie is a legend. Groundbreaking in every way…….I loved this period which was his “Philadelphia Soul” period.
No matter when or what he was up to, the best musicians we're a part of it. He could sing and he was a professional. Saw him live once on the Serious Moonlight tour in 84 maybe ? I was not that into the album but the show was impressive.
Hey love you guys! BTW it was The Wonder Years with Fred Savage. The theme song was "With a Little Help From My Friends" by Joe Cocker.

Love Me some Bowie! My favorite of his is Cat People (Putting Out Fire) Thanks for this reaction. ❤
Amazing artist! Great song
Iconic a legend may he Rest In Peace
This is one of my favorites by him. (His last name is pronounced with a long O ... like Joey). I'm an avid fan of your channel - keep doing it. Bowie was usually ahead of trends.
Depends. I've heard many Brits say Bow-ie (as in wow and pow).
@@realise6 Brit here only hear Bow- IE here
He wasn't ahead of the trends, he made them.
@@realise6 Those Brits are wrong, it's as in 'slow'.
Fame by David bowie
The only category I could put him in was his own!!! True artist
You know which channel I think is super underrated? Metal Piano Music. The guy spends weeks composing classic metal songs into classical/relaxing piano pieces and he hardly gets any views. I love his arrangement of Painkiller by Judas Priest. That guy really deserves millions of followers

The Golden years started when David recorded his first song!
Great comment 👍
1976. Beginning of Disco. Genius how he folds in retro 1930s/40’s style harmonizing and makes it work brilliantly.
Golden Years is my absolute favorite Bowie song. The breakdown in the middle "dream all night you gotta get smart.....kills me

I grew up listening to Bowie all my youth. My dad was the biggest Bowie fan I knew, and we were both gutted when he died. He was just this magic guy who achieved anything he put his mind to.
Another Great Artist we lost too soon
He was a artist of many sounds
That hip sound incidentally was called Plastic Soul.
"Golden Years" and "Fame" are probably my favorite songs by David Bo-eee.
GREATEST ... Same Here ... I hope my YT Bowie songs makes him smile from far far away.
Bowie not only reinvented himself musically every few years, he did an entire change of appearance each time. Also appeared in some films.
Bowie is amazing!! So many changes and yet he was always great!!!!
Bowie paved the way for Prince. Both were musical geniuses in complete control of their own very unique style, persona and spectacular songs.
Let's Dance (with Stevie Ray Vaughn on guitar) is a classic!

Golden Years was David Bowie's finest songs.....during the time when he was becoming more funky.
David Bowie is the BEST ever! Followed him and bought everything he released on every form of media since the beginning of the 70s. When I woke up to the announcement of his death, it was like a gut punch that wouldn't quit. It's been six years and I'm still in denial.

David Bowie his music is legendary you need to listen to his other songs Fame , another song - Let's Dance
David Bowie is my favorite male artist of all time. There's never been anyone quite like him. This was an awesome reaction. I hope you will do some more Bowie songs. Some of my favorites are "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)," "Ziggy Stardust," "Life On Mars," "Starman," "Rebel Rebel," and "Let's Dance." Thanks.

Bowie married Somali model Iman in 1992. Asia can see Mrs. Bowie selling her fashions on HSN or QVC.
You want to hear a quirky/ funky Bowie song check out Ashes To Ashes and Fashion. Both uniquely great songs
It was "Wonder Years" and the theme was Joe Cocker singing "Little Help From MY Friends" IIRC....
