    Bowie was 52 years of age when he performed this great track.
    Saw him with Iggy when he played keyboards back in 1977, then on the Serious
    Moonlight Tour of 1983. A brilliant and mercurial musician who wasn't afraid of
    change. The body of work DB made throughout the decades remain unparalleled.

    In an interview both backup singers said they had no idea who he was when they came in for the job... seriously tho how can anyone involved with music in and around the year 2000 not know the genius that he is... well was as this point. Gosh dang it I miss him...

    David Bowie was unbelievable throughout his music career. I saw The Glass Spider Tour in support of Never Let Me Down. Bowie, his band and his stage ensemble were mesmerizing. David Bowie DIDN'T change with the times. He created his OWN style, musically and fashion wise, SO the world had to STRUGGLE to change and keep up with HIM!
    This video is awesome. I've NEVER seen it before. David Bowie DOESN'T need any visual effects to enhance his music. The style, relevance and meaning STILL shines through. RIP and thanks for everything!

    There are two things in my opinion that made Bowie an absolutely unique talent in rock history:
    1) Bowie was able to create music that broke conventions and was undeniably strange, yet still hooked you from the first time you heard it. None of the "repeated listens required" stuff you get with the prog rockers of his era, from the first chords you're in. Even a song as weird as Beauty And The Beast (opening track of Heroes) just grabs you immediately and you'll be singing along before the song finishes playing. He made inaccessible music accessible.
    2) Through all his reinventions, no matter what persona or style he adopted, from folk, to glam, to punk rock, to new romantic, to industrial and drum 'n bass, to soul and funk, to the jazzy coda to his career that was the phenomenal Blackstar....Bowie ultimately always sounds like Bowie. You'll never hear a Bowie song and think "this is a completely different artist from the guy who did Space Oddity". Listen to a Genesis or Queen song from the 1970s and compare it to their work from the 1990s and they sound like completely different bands. But Bowie always remained Bowie, no matter how drastic the changes to his music were.
