    David Bowie challenged MTV in its early days for not playing Black artists. He had a way of just calling it like he saw it. Marched to his own beat and that was part of his appeal. Gave others courage to live their own truths. RIP.

      He sure did. The video where he called them on it in a televised interview is still out there and he was brilliant. There’s racism everywhere but the older English rock stars saw it when they came here, in the ‘60s-80s and some of them spoke out against it. David was one of them who did it in a very public platform. Love that man.

    Let me say this. I'm British and I'm 62 years old. In 1977 when I was 19, I first listened to this and other tracks like Sound and Vision. I said then that this was music that belonged to the future, and I still say it now when I hear Sound and Vision. It's great that you lads think the same as we did in the 70s. Our 44 year-old music then was made in the 1930's.

    Goot Lort, the David Bowie rabbit hole is deep and has many tunnels. "Space Oddity" followed by "Ashes To Ashes" "Ziggy Stardust" "Changes" "Young Americans" "Heroes." "Golden Years" "Fashion" "Sound And Vision" "Oh You Pretty Things" and "Suffragette City." And "Under Pressure" with Queen, official video if you haven't already done it. That should start you guys out, but there is SO MUCH MORE. He's a GENIUS.

The video is black and white and jazzy and is so amazing. 💜💜💜

    I’ve been waiting so long for you to listen to David Bowie. He was an artist decades ahead of his time.. there so many songs you should listen to, Young Americans, Let’s Dance, Changes.. just as an example, and all three are totally different in style. He’s worth exploring like Queen’s Freddy Mercury. Also, he was the Glam Rock master, his performances were spectacles..

    Bowie unapologetically reinvented himself through the decades of his life. He loved his fans and even saved music that's been released even after his death. He wasn't scared of trying different sounds, styles and mixing it up with other artists. He never took himself seriously and like Elvis loved working with black musicians. They both had soul and even had the same Birthday. He was a genius before his time. When you guys said funk vibe and on the moon walking...you were spot on because that was Bowie in a nutshell! I'm a Bowie superfan and I love you guys and I'm stoked you gave it a listen and got him. Thanks guys! ❤
