    David Bowie was one of the rarest kind of artists that despite the nearly 2 decades that spanned since he wrote "This is not America" that his voice has the same intensity and rhythm as the day he first sang it. So many artists have to rewrite their songs to reflect their age, not Bowie, he sang the song with the same passion as he did when he wrote it with Pat Metheney. RIP David, a true visionary gone too soon.

    As a musician and singer (so so so far from him...) , I can tell you how this live is a perfection. Obviously I 'm not talking about wrong notes , there is none ;-). But above all, it's this ability to keep the emotion and intensity to the climax ! This is truly a remarkable performance. I could be wrong, but at 8'30", David Bowie seems to talk to someone (gone?), and the following sentence is full of an incredible emotion ! Look at his face, and listen to his voice at this time, the intensity is really huge... But everything stays under "control" ! What could we say ? What a talent, so gifted but so humble too ! That's the whole difference...

    I have always heared about(and thought he's one of the greats)David Bowie,as far back as i can remember-and this perfomance is almost something sacred over...)..Absolutely beautiful!..And we will never see the likes of him again,ever-may he Rest In Peace..(...

    A little piece of me died when this legend passed away. I still can't bear it. For so many of us he was the soundtrack to our lives. At just over a year after his passing, I want to remember David Bowie and celebrate his life.

    A towering song (absolutely) - raising the question and explaining WHY there is no answer. Complete acceptance of the difficult truth (you can't change youself). He does have a head start in being comfortable in your skin - which he clearly does (in his). And what a voice live..

    What a great song to be fall in love. But it sucks that if this one reminds you a person you have lost and you know she ain't coming back and whenever hear the opening notes of this it takes you back to the memory lane and relive the love all over again.
    What a naive but powerful song.

    This song speaks to me very strongly. My family had fled to America in the early 20th century for their survival and that of their children. We are survivors of the Holocaust because we were one step ahead of the Haters. For me, America was a sanctuary--and should continue to be one. Even now, more than ever, Sanctuary is desperately needed.
