This whole album is such a gem that I usually play it end to end every time. Ready for Bowie's scheme of things!
Next: The three part song, SWEET THING, CANDIDATE, SWEET THING (REPRISE) from Diamond Dogs, 1974
would be exciting for most Bowie nuts.
Bowie’s album “Young Americans” is his “Philly soul” album. Every song is amazing.
Oh yeah, every song!!!
Phenomenal. The wordplay on Young Americans the song is outstanding ❤
The Diamond Dog album is killer as well!
I knew Bowie’s radio hits from my younger days but that was all. It’s nice to go back and hear the other songs that made him so beloved. Thanks Lee, this was a beautiful track.
Bowie is an absolute legend - to write so many beautiful songs over such a long period of time and in a variety of genre is amazing. He is as relevant now as he was for me growing up with him in the late 70's.
I highly recommend that you do a reaction on the song Lazarus, which is from his very last album Black Star. He put together a jazz ensemble to record behind him, and it’s absolutely brilliant.
He was dying of cancer during the making of this album and it’s a goodbye to his family, friends and fans. 🕊❤️🎼
The jazz on Blackstar is provided, mostly, by the Donny McCaslin Quartet. The whole album is so incredible, not just a goodbye but a final outpouring of his amazing talent as he put everything he had left into this final album.
Many recent Bowie fans try to catch up with a lot of the earlier stuff before getting to Blackstar but I think you're ready Lee for the whole album.
My other suggestions would be Slip Away and Everyone Says Hi both from the Heathen album.
Earl Slick & Carlos Alomar on guitars, George Murray on bass, Dennis Davis on drums and Roy Bittan on piano/organ.
Excellent reaction, You said it, Bowie was an artist. He was to the 70s what the Beatles were to the 60s. The guy was always exploring. Try the album Aladdin Sane, it’s glam like Ziggy, but darker. If nothing else, listen to the title track, very avant-garde. My favorite song of all time! Outside is really out there, one of the gems of his later period.
Bowie said this song was his cry for help during his serious addiction to cocaine. This album is amazing & beautiful. Can't wait to see you react to more of his discography 💓
It certainly is wonderful... I'm gonna finish it up, actually! Everyone in the chat was adamant that I do TVC 15 as well.
I definitely can hear the anguish and hopelessness in his voice here. I've been there. But with heroin.
If you do TVC15 (my least favorite on the album) then you might as well do the one remaining song of the 6, and the main single 'Golden Years'
@@L33Reacts You haven't done Golden Years yet right? I think you should do that one instead of TVC 15 personally. It's one of his best from the 70s era!
@LaniFilms ok, I'm just gonna do both in one video to finish the album up. Yall have convinced me 😊
You'll love the Ziggy album.
A beautiful song. A cry for help. The live version that was included in the extended version of this album is even better!
There's a lot more great Bowie waiting for you.
I'd definitely check out his Young Americans album next, it's during his R&B/Soul period. The title cut, Young Americans is a perfect place to start. Must hear Fame, Fascination, Somebody Up There Likes Me and Right are all can't misses. Love Bowie, RIP big man.
Gary Richraft flying turkey trot live REO Speed wagon guitar solo and golden country
Roy Bittan on piano, so good. Wore this album out it never gets boring.
Artist is the word.
“Changes” is a great song.
Your summation is perfect. Young Americans next!
This is the right path.
I vote for SCARY MONSTERS as next Bowie album listen in song order if possible. 😊
One of my favorit song
❤ Thank you!
Hunky dory is another great album
I agree. His voice just pulls you in and you don't want to let go. Bowie is an artist in so many ways from his music, acting and painting. I like how he created different personalities or different aspects of himself from being Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke.
Gorgeous.
I love this album. Bowie's voice gives me goosebumps.
He regretted the production being so dry and having heard these tracks live I agree.
While this isn't exactly a concept album like "Ziggy," I've always thought of this song - the last on the album - as the climactic scene in which The Thin White Duke actually feels love again for the first time in ages. Since The Thin White Duke is defined by his cold heart, falling in love changes him. It kills the vampire that he is, and allows Bowie to regenerate (a la Doctor Who) into his next character. (Further head canon: I believe that The Thin White Duke returned once more on the album "Let's Dance.")
Wild is the Wind is the last track.
That's the "closing credits" music to my head canon movie. lol Still a love song, so my theory still stands. (And it is a cover so maybe it counts slightly less?)@@bradhyatt3906
Warren Peace is Geoffrey Alexander MacCormack, Bowie’s friend from childhood
This is a cry for help. Turn to god. Just in case. I think Bowie's mental health had taken a bit of a battering around this time and this song truly captures that desperation.
Hunky Dory, Diamond Dogs or Low. 3 very different albums I could recommend
David Bowie had a fine range of voice (I'm not a singer, not sure of Octave's) and he'd accent his voice for some like his native south London, or our mid-Atlantic. And he could switch, like in this song between. StationToStation is one of my favorites of Bowie.
Roy Bittan, was the main piano for Bruce Springsteen & E.Street Band. Roy would also work with Dire Straits on their second album.
Bowie was such an international Star !
But he was a South London boy from the Brixton area and never lost sight of his roots!!..
Hiya, sorry don't know your name, just seen your reaction to Bowie, word on a wing,,,really love your respect,,don't know if you will see this, but I'm a guy now 63 years old, but yeah, did all the the things that I was always warned not to do. Early 70s, spiked hair, many colours, hair down to my waist, permed,shaved,etc etc etc, boring 😴,,got my first Bowie album, Hunky Dory, for my 10th birthday, and the rest is history,,,,or at least mine, LISTEN TO BOWIE SINGING, All the Madmen, from his, The Man who sold the world album. Bowie wrote it for his brother, Terry, who introduced Bowie to music in the 60s and as Bowie said was the biggest influence in his life. Terry having served in the armed forces, suffered with many mental health issues and sadly committed suicide in the early 80s in a mental institution which Bowie said he found it very hard to come to terms with. I have hundreds of stuff from this truly giant icon of music history.,even many things from Bowie from the 60s before he changed his name from Jones to Bowie with the bands he played with in that time. JUST listen to the Madmen,,,lean back and enjoy ❤, Tony here in the UK
Sounds like the lead vocal is slightly lower in this mix, with the piano and bass more pronounced. Could just be misremembering of course.
Other than that, the impression of melancholy may or may not have something to do with this being from a fairly miserable time in his life - just before he moved to Berlin to keep a low profile and kick a serious cocaine habit.
