With musical diversity, and a cover of David Bowie's "Rebel Rebel", which was originally planned to be the title track for the Oscar-winning film Boys Don't Cry. Before his death David Bowie was quoted as saying that this version was his favorite cover of his work.
Yeah, I had no idea this existed but being a Bowie fan and a Rickie fan came across it... and then went "Ohmylordy, Brian Setzer... and is that Syd Straw?!?"
I'm sure Mr David Bowie would be resting peacefully knowing Rickie-Lee Jones is doing his work proud, I can almost imagine him joining in with tis amazing work by our favourite Lady RLJ.
I knew Rickie was a consummate artist the first time she appeared on The Tonight Show with her red beret. Not only is she a treasure, she is an inspiration.
Ooh, I've been lovin' Ricky since her first hit, 'Chuck E's In Love', way way back in, what, '77 ?? Love finding this old footage! She is one-of-a-kind, so unique, so original, so uncompromising in her artistry! And I've still got her first 3 vinyl albums.
Damn, THIS is who sings “Rebel Rebel” on “Boys Don’t Cry” trailer on Amazon!! Nobody can figure out who it is as far as I’ve been able to find via search. You would almost have to know the band/singer name to find it even though the band/singer is who you are trying to find. I’m exhausted now from listening to almost every female cover of Rebel Rebel out there! Maybe this post will show in search now so everyone else, who haven’t given up, can find it.
Sexy and very nice. Rickie shows class. If you don´t like it, listen to Bowies version. The thing with RUclips is that´s there is something for everyone.
Dig this, a lot!! Got here tracking Nathan Larson, (scored Boys Don't Cry) the tremendously underappreciated guitarist of DC's finest - Shudder To Think. You like remakes that are remade? Check Shudder's rendition of So Into You... 🥃🌷😊
Thanks for the info Coventry112! I see Jay Leno, so it must have been the Tonight show, but was this an impromptu gathering of serious talent just for this show or was this a tour introduction? Additionally, when was this I wonder?
WHEN AND WHERE WAS THIS PERFORMED? ALSO, WHO IS THE FEMALE BACK UP SINGER? I RECOGNIZE BRIAN SETZER ON GUITAR AND THE GUT BASS PLAYER BUT THATS ALL. GREAT VERSION OF THIS CLASSIC TUNE...GOOD POST, THANKS!
Sorry, but she can't sing. Weeeeeek voice. Lucky to be working with such great material. She does a nice job with her handling of the acoustic. And she's overwhelmed by/outsung by her backup.

I've loved her since the first time I ever heard her. Can't get enough of her.
She played it for me as a birthday request at an outdoor concert in Boone, NC, a few years ago. Love her version.
❤wow very tight ....vocals are excellent 👌 😮
I just found this. Its unbelievable. I love it. She gives the song a different twist. I have always been a rickie lee jones fam.

Bowie had said it was his favorite cover of his work!
Yes yes yes. It's my favorite Bowie cover...now

Excellent cover. Vocal, groove, all is perfect. Rickie is the best❤
Rickie Lee Jones looks so pretty
ça me fait tellement plaisir de la voir reprendre cette chanson là .. Deux amours de jeunesse Rickie et David :)
Great version, and Bowie's all time favorite cover.
We survived….rebel rebel..🎶 Rickie bring it…still
during the years....she s been amazing, thanks for having such a wonderful musical heritage in her, and her own awesome songs.

I love how she interprets her covers.
Yup. I love her cover of "Show Biz Kids" with Joe Jackson.
What a great version of RR. Love R.Lee. x

Very young Brian Setzer. Restrained but that was still some fine playing.
he was just jammin'. jones was headlining.
@@donwelch6612 Yeh I know just love her stuff
I really find this refreshingly different, and like the whole line-up, this lady's voice is just so -------------------------------
ThankYou! Syd Straw as backup singer!
And she is such a schmoooozbuster!🤓👕🏠
Love ya, Rickie Lee
I just discovered she was the voice over on the Orb's "fluffy little clouds"

Sexy and very nice. Rickie shows class. If you don´t like it, listen to Bowies version. The thing with RUclips is that´s there is something for everyone.
I spy Syd Straw on backing vocals. Wow!

Is that cat on lead guitar the cat from “Stray Cats”?
J'aimerais avoir les transcriptions de certaines des paroles de Rickie Lee Jones
Elvis Boulevard..
Wow
Syd Straw providing background vocals
That one of those stray cats playing in the back?
Just a couple of incorrect lyrics but I love RLJ and Rebel Rebel.
who is the guitarist? is he from stray cats? he looks very familiar.
Yeah, that's Brian Setzer w/ his lovely Gretsch guitar.
Thanks for the info Coventry112! I see Jay Leno, so it must have been the Tonight show, but was this an impromptu gathering of serious talent just for this show or was this a tour introduction? Additionally, when was this I wonder?

HUGOGRUNER1 Patti Smith

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ‼️
Hello legs.
Mmmm, not sure about this.
looks rough
What makes one of the best rockabilly guitarists in history involved in that mediocrity?
Who on earth told her this was a good idea??
+jvm22187 no idea have you?
+jvm22187 Maybe Bowie himself. This is from 1993, you know.
As a fan of Rickie Lee Jones and Brian Setzer I can only say - This is shit. Fuck people, what were you thinking??
+Spud O'Doom I thought this was a great cover!
As a fan of Ricki Lee Jones and respect for Brian Setzer
I absolutely love This!!

U sound snobby and ignorant in music.
I'm sorry for you....
