i like his strangely devilish charisma with a touch of femininity almost comes off as flirtation but thats because people with a lot of charisma have poor boundaries... i love it

"Where's the kick..." "Huh?!" "...for you David for performance" By god it must have been hard for him to go through the interview in that state... He still got the class, that coolness but man he was really down in it in that moment

His music, style and personality (seen in his interviews and live performances) will always be here for the fans to enjoy. :)

@@jacobmatthews8021 Bowie started dabbling in coke around late 1973, he got away being severely addicted when him and Iggy Pop moved to Berlin from LA in 1976, but would still occasionally do a bit now and again right into the 80s.
It's actually kinda uncomfortable to watch this, you can see he's on the brink of losing it. Hard times for him, so good to know he recovered and took his life so much further unlike sadly other drug overdose victims
This was one of the first interviews I watched of David Bowie after I just discovered him (just last month actually) and I wasn't aware he had a cocaine addiction at the time. He was just delightful and charming here in a peculiar way. He still gave great answers and remarks, and his smiles and chuckles made you smile with him. Maybe I did get a whiff that he seemed more giddy and fidgety than one would normally behave in an interview like this one, one considered more on the serious side. Still, he was engaging. :) I don't know how that's even possible when one's drugged up.
David Bowie is one of the greatest artists of all time ... I loved him, I love him and I will always love him so much and art that is created and left us. Thanks to David and the rest in peace! LOVE !!!
Notice how his eyes well up when he talks about his mother at 9:35 and then again at 13:00 when he mentions his son's name. I know he's high and his eyes look rather watery all throughout the interview, but those are the moments when they seem to shine the brightest. He was obviously a sensitive person. What a cutie 😥
you're probably right.... when your as coked up as he is here, you have little throttle to none on your id. your banking off pure instinct & emotion. plus your more naked mentally.
I was in college at the time of this interview and saw David Bowie on his Station to Station, Evansville, IN., Feb 22nd 1976 tour. Especially liked his Man Who Sold The World/Ziggy Stardust/Aladinsane/Diamond Dogs/PinUps albums.
he said once in a interview that he used to do a lot of coke bc he was really shy and the drugs whenever he needed to do a show or a interview "helped" to encourage himself to do these things
I really want to just hold him and scream that he cannot be so obsessed with how others view him. Bowie viewed himself constantly as a faker, a phony, and has extreme imposter syndrome. Right at the beginning of this interview when he asks him "and how do you think I'm like?" is when I realized that his lyrics on this are actually true, he does feel the imposter syndrome. I wish someone told him that you have to define yourself, not others.
I love these old interview shows... the lulls really are where dick has to get creative with questions, and it’s the quiet moments where you really get glimpses into the inner personalities of the interviewees.
Oh I miss him dearly so intelligent and fun he is such an inspiration although so high on coke here I still love him such great style means a lot. My mum is not so happy that I watch him and think about him all the time thinking that he is changing me but he is just saving my life and making me happier xx
their discussion of stars like normal people reminds me so much of "The Stars (are Out Tonight)" I guess Bowie had been thinking about that for a long time
As someone who's only ever liked post-1979 Bowie and only really seen that version of him.. he is mostly unrecognizable to me here. Really scary.. thank god he saved himself from drugs.
@@ivankaramasov Low, Heroes, Lodger, The Idiot and Lust for Life are the albums that Bowie, Iggy and Eno made whilst recovering from drug addictions and inventing Punk Rock, New Wave, New Romantic, Industrial, Ambient, New Age, Batcave (goth), Cyberpunk, etc.

So much cocaine, the more I watch the more it bothers me to see someone I admire so much suffering. Glad he was able to move beyond this stage. Thank you for everything David, love you!!

May you R.I.P. David Bowie. An Amazing, Awesome legend💙
