![David Bowie - Rebel Rebel [REMASTERED HD] • TopPop](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/d8BzPxWvdAs/mqdefault.jpg)
David Bowie is a chameleon. There is no genre of music Bowie has not done! A true musical master.
He was indeed. Best comment! RIP DB. Hope you and SRV wrote some new tunes riding a cozy cloud.
Facts.
I’d like him to do some death metal 😉
@@hamburgersandfuriousanger6820 Bowie can't do anything now because he is actually, well, dead. However, he did a whole album about death and dying, it's called "Blackstar" or rather "*". It is not a metal album though, it is rather an art rock and jazz album. So, is death jazz satisfying enough for you?
@@miki03soimu meant to say would’ve lol but yea he didn’t touch any type of metal. The closest he came I think was when he collaborated with Trent reznor? I might be mistaken.
Your Stones observation is spot on. Bowie freely admits he inverted the "(Can't Get No) Satisfaction" guitar riff to construct this song.
This is probably one of the reasons Mick Jagger has always claimed he wish The Stones wrote “Rebel Rebel.”
Reminiscent of “Substitute” by The Who. Also “No More Mister Nice Guy” by Alice Cooper.
Wooow ok I appreciate that info
( I can't get no) " Satisfaction "
He said so himself that he was doing the Stones
Funny enough Bowie and Jagger did a music video cover of Dancing in the Street, and it was everything wrong with the 80's.
The original release had that cheesy overproduced 80's sound. Jagger and Bowie went back to the mixing board a few years back and produced a more folksy, stripped-down version that everyone should listen to: ruclips.net/video/BHkhIjG0DKc/видео.html
Boy..it sure was..Very well said...
This song was Bowie's last "glam rock" song, The Spiders were gone and Bowie played the lead guitar himself.
Loved the Spiders from Mars, they should react to some of the live Ziggy Stardust, ripping band, rocking Bowie.
On, “Will You Rock and Roll With Me”, Bowie really nails the Ronson sound imho.
I've been a Bowie fan for over 50 years. I saw him in L.A. in 74. He strutted around the stage like he owned it. Back then no one cared if were weird. Bowie and Jagger were contemporaries and good friends.
Bowie was a better live performer than Jagger. He really cared about doing high quality live performances. Nothing against Jagger. Bowie was just very serious about performance on stage. And actually singing well.
@@Greg-io1ipyou're one of those whack job Gregs
Can't put Bowie in a box, ever. He and Mick were REALLY good friend's.
And don’t forget that musicians are first fans, then performers.
Mick Jagger and David Bowie were friends from when they were teenagers , way before they were famous musicians. ☺️
David was able to transform himself into many different looks, characters, etc. He's missed for sure, and he could mesmerize you when watching him. He was a musical genius indeed!!
His Songbook is huge!!!!❤❤❤🎷🎷🎤🎤🎸🎸👍🏼
David is referred to as a rock chameleon, his sound changed from album to album, there's no way to pin down his sound.
We used to BLARE this song on our car stereos in 70's. We thought we were rebellious too, but compared to Bowie, we were just normal kids. Yeah, we were. But it was fun to go on this ride with Bowie.
Suffragette City is the Bowie song you need.
David Bowie Wrote It.
Mick Ronson was what made early Bowie the best. Never the same after he left.
I actually liked the Let's Dance era of Bowie's career.
@@324cmac that was a good song but not as good as early bowie. I saw bowie when he had SRV as his guitarist. Was pretty damn good
@@edwardcapobianco2975 I'm sure it was. I think of SRV as a Jimi Hendrix copycat. I know that's not a popular opinion.
Ronson was integral in the more rocking era of Bowie. He helped give him an edge that he otherwise lacked. Everything after that felt schmaltzy. Ronson was also a first-class arranger and balladeer, and Bowie’s piano ballads were never better than in the Ronson era. That said, “Rebel Rebel” is post-Ronson, as Bowie handles much of the guitar duties here.
@@324cmac many were influenced by Hendrix but SRV is a better guitarist and superior singer as well. No comparison.
You'll never pin Bowie down....dude reinvented himself with each album. He is one of THE greats. His catalogue matches The Stones, easily. Oh, and this song was about Iggy Pop.
Bowie genius.
The best era for me, for David Bowie, is when he was rocking out with guitarist extraordinaire Mick Ronson with the Spiders from Mars in the early 70s. I was in high school at that time and he was one of the true superstars to emerge in that time. You should see them live, try Moonage Daydream Live from his Ziggy Stardust days, the band just nails it and Ronson explodes, Bowie's looks very pleased with the show all of them are putting on. They also do an epic Width of a Circle, one of David Bowie's finest moments in his career. For another studio banger try Suffragate City, classic riff and a snarling Bowie vocal. Try some more rocking Bowie's like you just heard, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶
Mick Ronson is such an under-appreciated guitarist. His contribution to the glam rock scene of the 70s is essential.
Ronson was great and instrumental in Bowie’s early success. However, by the time of Diamond Dogs, Bowie had a new band, and “Rebel Rebel” is mostly all Bowie on guitar, with Alan Parker.
That’s Bowie playing guitar.
Dude, I was gonna say, can we please get some love goin for the TRUE genius of this operation. Mick Ronson!
@@mr.snicker-doodles7081👍
Ny all-time fav Bowie song!!!
I saw David Bowie say in an interview once that when he was a kid he wanted to write musicals for the stage and since then I can hear and see it in his work. A lot of his songs have a certain stage musical quality and he certainly had a character for each album. His voice in the song Sweet Thing makes me goosey all over and gives me a similar feeling to what Pink Floyd gives me. There's a great vid on YT of his songs Sweet Thing - Candidate - Sweet thing (Reprise) together. *chef's kiss*
Oh boy! I was 17, and I can remember getting ready to go out, with my Farah hair, platforms, gold lamee'jacket, bell bottoms, blasting this song. Love this song.
One of a kind !!! Peter Frampton's father (Owen Frampton) was David Bowie's Art teacher. True story.
As it’s been said a few times Bowie was a musical chameleon who’s music crossed many genres and was appreciated by many. One thing of note he was also the first white artist to be featured on Soul Train in the 70’s!
My band always filled the floor with this one Laa and Chee!
I miss him. ❤
Thank God for David Bowie. (1974 was the year The Stones released the album, It's Only Rock & Roll.)
I once read an article with James Brown where he was asked who his favourite singers were and he said David Bowie, and he could sing anything and make it great.
Before y’all leave the Diamond Dogs album please check out Sweet Thing, Candidate, Sweet Thing (reprise). One song, three parts. Go with a lyrics video, kinda hard to understand what he’s singing at times. 🖖🍻
you said it perfect… Bowie is fusion…. in many different ways.
That's Bowie on guitar. He played virtually all the guitar on the D/Dogs album. In fact he played about 50% of the Instruments on the album.
Bullseye reaction: Keith Harwood and Glyn Johns were engineers on the "Diamond Dogs" LP.
Degree of separation from not only the Stones but also...yep. Zep.
Bowie's glam era!!!
Bowie definitely loved the Stones. If the whole glam rock genre were a public company, the Stones would definitely be majority shareholders of it. “Brown Sugar” was definitely very influential for it. Bowie also owes a lot to Marc Bolan.
I first heard Bowie around '74. I had no idea his catalog would become so expansive. Fast forward to 2007. My daughter LOVES Bowie and she asked me to take her to see him in Atlanta. I did, and, trust me, until you've heard a crowd of 10,000 chant "ooooh, wham, bam, thank you ma'am" in unison, it'll make a huge and lasting impression on you. Back then, ticket prices were reasonable and you got your money's worth. Now hell will freeze over before I pay exorbitant prices to see bands that WE made famous in the first place. (For a frame of reference, I'm 63 years old.)
64, I get you. Tickets were 5.50 to 10 bucks back then.😥
You should try "Jean Genie " by him. It's a really great glam rock song. Preferably with the official video. It adds to the atmosphere of the era.
I’ve listened to this song/album for nearly 50 years and had never made that Stones connection but you’re spot on with it. Would love to see you guys react to the entire Diamond Dogs album.
Jagger and Bowie were contemporaries -- and Bowie was ALWAYS keeping you guessing as to what style he would give birth to next. A chameleon indeed.
Bowie was the man back in the days, l saw him in concert several times but this song is special to me because when I was a teenager in the 70's, l had friends that were in a backyard band called "Hot Soup" and they played this and when the chorus would play, "Hot Tramp l love you so", well the crowd would sing " Hot Soup plays rock and roll, get it? Maybe you had to there🤔 anyway....great memories ✌️🥰
You guys should definitely check out the medley "1984"/"Big Brother"/"Chant of the Ever Circling Skeletal Family " from his Diamond Dogs album. Great music.
As some have said, this is really great but there are plenty more to come!
If you want to know who influenced Bowie, listen to his 1973 "Pin-ups" album where he puts his stamp on songs by artists that influenced him during the 60s.
The reason he was able to stay relevant from the '70s on up until his passing was that he always had his ear to the ground for what was going on in the underground. He would then take those sounds, mix it with his own flavors, and create new trends. He never chased them, he set them.
I said this before, but I think it would really help for you to go through his albums chronologically (skipping the first one). It will give you a better idea of his creative progression rather than skipping around to different periods. Plus he just has a treasure chest full of quality stuff on every record.
Bowie makes up the genres love you
YEAH MAN, HE PLAYED SO MANYYYYY DIFFERENT CHARACTERS YOU GUYS! 😊HIM AND ELTON DOMINATEDDDDD THE 70'S WITH THE COSTUMES, SOUNDS, SONGS!!! LMAO JUST TOOOOO DAMN GOOD GUYS! 😊 HUGE R.I.P ☹ TO DAVID AND SAD ☹ CONDOLENCES TO HIS WIFE ( IMAN )
You'll have fun exploring Bowie's catalog, it changes all over the place. He went through phases and not only his songs, but his physical looks, dress and personality changed from phase to phase. One of the greats!
I was just thinking that this sounded like the stones when you cut in and said that. amazing. what we do when we watch you is listen deeper like you two do. I love it.
David Bowie was the lead guitarist on this one which he wrote. But you are right Che, it is very Rolling Stones-ish. The bass guitar is played by the ubiquitous and wonderfully named, Herbie Flowers! 🙃
Bowie and Jagger are both from London suburbs/ or Greater London . So yep can't really disagree on that point. And they hung out together back in the day.
David Bowie has some great music to listen to. Worth checking out. Diamond Dogs. Panic in Detroit, (I am biased being from the D), Gene Jeanie. Moonage Daydream. Just to name a few. Mick Ronson on the guitar was a great guitarist. As always fellas you are doing a great job. Appreciate you 🙏 ❤
Jean Genie FFS!
@@steddie4514I usually react to music videos.I will make an exception this time. Sorry I am not perfect . I made a mistake. But for someone to hide behind a key board and point it out that way let's me know how intelligent you are.
Bowie marches to his own drum. He doesn't copy anybody else.
Nigel is quite talented himself. David Bowie always surrounded himself with great musicians. Probably his best attribute. He was very ambitious to get the best musicians around him to get the most out of his songs. He knew how he wanted his songs to sound. He was like the Andy Warhol of music.
There is an hysterical clip where David recalls first time seeing the Stones. He diesxa Mick accent.
David was really very funny.
You know how bands copy each other’s sounds? David was imitating the Stones here. Listen to how he’s shaping his voice. He’s doing Mick!
David wrote, produced, sang and played guitar on this. Almost all Bowie songs are written or co-written by Bowie except the album Pin-Ups, which was all covers.
There are two versions of this, a US and a UK version. I think this is the UK version. Technically the right one.
A great song with a great guitar riff. 🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸👍
You can't define Bowie's music. He was very into listening to musical styles while he travelled and visited countless other musicians and bands, then going into the studio to do his twist on what he heard. Enjoy your Bowie reactions! I suggest trying Stay, Life on Mars, Fame, Golden Years, Young Americans,.
You mentioned it coming off of Space Oddity - that song was originally released in 1969, and re-released in 1973. Between those 2 dates are 3 great albums, Man Who Sold The World, Hunky Dory, and Ziggy Stardust - the last two are a must to react to.
Good catch on the Stones influence. It was a major influence on the album this is from, "Diamond Dogs". This album began as a concept album that would be based on George Orwell's novel "1984". When Orwell's widow refused to grant Bowie the rights to reference it directly, he reworked it into "Diamond Dogs". But many of the "1984" references remain, including songs titled "We Are The Dead", "Big Brother", and "1984". This song was based on the character Julia from the novel, who is described as a "rebel from the waist down"...Often said to be the last defining moment of the glam era...
You guys are right about the Stones sound. The guitar, and his voice, sounds like the Stones.
to me it sounded just like something he would do.💚
Funny enough, David Nd Mick were great friends, spot on👍
This is almost a bridge album between the glam-rock of Ziggy and Aladdin Sane into his Thin White Duke/ Blue-eyed soul of Young Americans.
You gotta react to Bowie singing Comfortably Numb live in concert with David Gilmour🤟🤟
That’s Bowie on lead guitar…
Great reaction! 😊
I was so waiting for this reaction! One of the greatest openings rifts ever!!!
Great job fellas, but wait till you hear Let's Dance and Fame. Straight 🔥🔥🔥
Great pick guys! One of my favorite Bowie tunes - he was such a diverse artist.🎶 Check out his performance at Live Aid in 1985. Thanks for reacting to another song by this great artist. RIP David❤
I loved this when I was waay younger. My fav DB album still is Aladdin Sane.
Brilliant call on sounding like the Stones!
One of my favorite riffs
David Bowie's real name is David Jones, Bowie had to change his name because lead singer of the Monkees and fellow Englishman Davy Jones had the name first.
David Thomas Jones (30 December 1945 - 29 February 2012) was an English actor and singer.
Aside from his work on The Monkees TV show, Jones's acting credits include a Tony-nominated performance as the Artful Dodger in the original London and Broadway productions of Oliver! and a guest-starring role in a hallmark episode of The Brady Bunch television show and a later reprised parody film.
David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 - 10 January 2016), known professionally as David Bowie (/ˈboʊi/ BOH-ee),[1] was an English singer-songwriter and actor.
He received a serious injury at school in 1962 when his friend George Underwood punched him in the left eye during a fight over a girl. After a series of operations during a four-month hospitalisation,[20] his doctors determined that the damage could not be fully repaired and Bowie was left with faulty depth perception and anisocoria (a permanently dilated pupil), which gave a false impression of a change in the iris' colour, erroneously suggesting he had heterochromia iridum (one iris a different colour to the other); his eye later became one of Bowie's most recognisable features. Wikipedia.
Even his pose in that picture you're showing is a "Mick" pose. 🤙😎
You are bring back my teenager years!
missing him greatly
That guitar riff is 🔥🔥🔥
Here you guys go...
1. You LOVE SRV
2. Your diggin' Bowie
Check out "Cat People" from Bowie's "Let's Dance" album...SMOKIN🔥
Keep up with Bowie! Lots of gold in them mines! :)
Eventually every soundscape went through the Bowie filter. T.Rex, the Stones, and the Velvet Underground were big influences on Bowie at the time, but Bowie took that stuff and put his own spin on it.
You guys will really dig "Fame" by David Bowie, which was co-written by The Beatles' John Lennon, who also provides some guitar and backing vocals. 🎸🔥😎
Doing a search on here for "rebel rebel reality" will bring up a video of the way he did a slightly-abbreviated, mildly-reworked version of the song with his stellar early-2000s band. I like it even more than the original. Bowie forever!
Now you know Bowie, RIP Ziggy✌️by the way loved your crosswalk photo.😊
Blue Jean live from the MTV thing is one of my favorites
Great shout about the Stones! You pre-empted what I was going to write here. This one is a bit one dimensional (but it's a fantastically catchy dimension!) apart from the fantastic Ronson riff I really like his vocals, particularly at the end, where he's seemingly doing adlibs ) See also Brown Sugar/The Jean Genie for Stones comparisons. He covered Let's Spend The Night together (glam fashion) on the album (Aladdin San) immediately before Diamond Dogs, which this track lives on. Enough about RS; this is a great pop song. My 13 year old self loved it and I still do.
Yep, Bowie does The Stones is what this is - title track (Diamond Dogs) is even more Stones like. He also did a Stones cover at the time of this album (Let's Spend The Night Together). For Bowie rock that sounds Bowie, try Queen Bitch or Panic In Detroit.
Bowie was playing around with a Stones influenced vibe especially beginning with the Aladdin Sane album, which came out about a year before this. He even covered "Let's Spend the Night Together" on that album. But the well known songs from that album -- "The Jean Genie" and "Cracked Actor" -- though they have a hint of a Stones quality really sound all Bowie, like no one else.
It was the Young Americans album, which came out in 1975, that he completely changed his sound again -- going for a more pop, soul and funk quality. He even co-wrote a song with Luther Vandross on that album, a song called "Fascination" -- though the big hits from that album were "Young Americans" and "Fame", the latter co-written with John Lennon.
Every album is totally different.
You guys should check out Bowie’s “Lady Grinning Soul” from the Aladdin Sane album - a completely different feel, and the keys are amazing. Or something from his “plastic soul” Young Americans album (with a young Luther Vandross arranging the backup vocals). “Win” from that album is one of my favorites.
Yep...Stones for sure. 😎👍
He even had a metal band called Tim Machine
Bowie in himself plays guitar on this record. You should react to Sweet thing/Candidate/ST reprise, in my opinion, the masterpiece of the album.
Love you guys It’s Good to see brothers working together like you do.I enjoy watching you guys react to songs that you’ve never heard.I’d like to know if you can react to Dazed and confused live at Madison square garden 1973. It’s a long song but I guarantee that it’ll blow your mind.I’ve seen other reactors react to it and they made it through.I just want to see the look on your faces when Jimmy goes to work in this song. Insane
Let’s Spend the Night Together is a Stones cover by Bowie. Check out both versions!
You’re getting closer to Bowie’s Signature Album “Ziggy Stardust”. Check out “Moonage Daydream” with Bowie’s Absolutely Amazing Vocals & Lyrics with Mick Ronson on Piano String Arraignments Melotron & Ronson’s Other Worldly Guitar Great Songs off of the Ziggy Stardust Album

Bowie covered The Rolling Stones "Let's Spend the Night Together" on his classic 1973 album Aladdin Sane. "Rebel Rebel" is from his classic 1974 album Diamond Dogs. The album he dropped between those two, Pin Ups, is full of covers from The Who, The Yardbirds, The Pretty Things, Pink Floyd and The Kinks. He covered The Beatles on his next album, Young Americans, and Nina Simone on his album after that. Bowie liked to share his favs with his fans.
Sounds like a Stones song, great observation. I agree 👍Try the song Young Americans, you’ll like it, Bowie works with some of the best black female backup vocalists around, try it next. Thanks guys
Excelente David, un Genio ....RIP...................Hola, podrian reaccionar a : Whitesnake - Take Me With You (Liove in London 15) , creo que les va a encantar, pura adrenalina. Saludos desde Buienos Aires, Argentina !!!!
Trivia: David Bowie's real name was David Jones but he changed it so as not to be confused with Davie Jones of the Monkees. Also, apparently Bowie was envious of Bryan Ferry's vocal talent and being that they were contemporaries vying for the same audience it's quite possible.
Michael Jackson and Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees
All In Your Name.
Mick Ronson was a great guitarist. One of my favorite.
