Lyrics
When comes the shaking man
A nation in his eyes
Striped with blood and emblazed tattoo
Streaking cathedral spire
They say
He has no brain
They say
He has no mood
They say
He was born again
They say
Look at him climb
They say Jump
They say
He has two gods
They say
He has no fear
They say
He has no eyes
They say
He has no mouth
They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd
They say Jump
Watch out!
Got to believe somebody
Got to believe
Jump
Got to believe somebody
Jump
Got to believe
They say jump
About David Bowie:
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.
#DavidBowie #JumpTheySay #Bowie
Jesus Christ this man left so much music and art for us it's unbeliavable
I didn't knew this was released on my year. love the man!
50 years of music, can you believe it?
This song is awsome!!! He is (was)a gentleman!!
👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰
@@duncan3998 I'm talking about the length of time of Bowie created and released music in his career (1966-2016; 52 years, if you count his early work with the Lower Third), fool. 😒
Unpopular opinion, but Jump They Say is actually my 2nd favourite Bowie song. A criminally underappreciated masterpiece.
Agree.
No question! And this, "short promotional film"!
Black Tie, White Noise unfairly gets maligned. This song is a standout on a very good album some people wish to dismiss. I think the whole album is fantastic! It was in my opinion the beginning of David's creative rebirth. He didn't look back after this one, thankfully.
Yes indeed as with 92s outside sometimes concept werx and Bowie is the master of even conceptual lifestyle self imposed rocker ziggy sets out to make himsef a rock god then kills him off lol because he’s to popular, enter the space junkies with issues as his capsule hurls into the Abyss lol major Tom, thin white duke etc Bowie’s awesome and missed , strung out on heaven’s high hitting an all time low,,, SPROCKETS!!!! Gday all!! they say JUMP! ! Fades out out out ou o c --
I do agreee
Non conventional Song.
Funky and acid jazz mixid up with class and talent.
The more you listen ti It the more It grows the Better It sounds
In my opinion this is one of Bowie's best. Slayed by the critics, but it is incredibly powerful. One of my favorites!
I love this song too. Lucky me I formed my opinion before reading the critics! :D
Not a huge fan of the album it comes from (Outside remains my favourite overall album from Bowie) but this is probably my favourite track he's ever done.
Someone had an interview with Bowie once and insensitively mentioned Terry to him.Bowie then looked very sad and the interviewer then changed the subject.
These videos of him also resemble mini movies.I may not understand everything,but it is worth watching.
I like the instrument in the background.Something sad about it,too.And the 2 voices at times,very nice.
But yes,it is sad.
At the end,he looks a bit like that death scene in Merry christmas mr.Lawrence when he eventually died.
The critics are utterly and completely meaningless when it comes to David Bowie. Don’t give them a second thought - ever. Ever, EVer.
@@CamPalinSmithdĝĵĵĥh
No one in the history of this world has been more stylish entering and exiting elevators than Bowie. :)
His brother was the inspiration for this song. Sad but creative song
Yes I believe half brother but yeah
No one wears a suit better than Mr Bowie
Bryan Ferry wears a suit pretty well as well! xx
Love his motions his hands always positioned perfectly the lyrics FkiN Awesome like it or not damn great song thanks 🙏 ziggy ,,,,
Cate Blanchett as well!
@@pagan95 i
tESLA WAS ALESOMELZ ELEGANT ON an equal measure! It ain't a coincidence that he portrazed him in a role from THE PRESTIGUE. The 2 geniuses colided there. And the elegant suits, of course!
Bowie could sing the damn phone book and make it amazing!
Sweet Heart Damn right 👍
The phone book is amazing..
He's so beautiful in this video, it hurts
Omg yes. It makes me tear up.
Yes, he is !!
I’m sorry I’m not very good at this as I keep apologizing I’m glad I didn’t make a comment stating that I absolutely agree with you the man was always beautiful, before he knew he was beautiful perhaps, but for all of the true heartbreaking, heart feeling reasons that man is eternally beautiful! Thank you for your comment❤️
Again, I was so silly and don’t know really how to work any of this other than saying that it sounds like you were being kind which some responses are not. I absolutely adore David Bowie and I have through thick and thin and have very funny stories I wish I could talk to people about but I don’t know how to do anything other than text or use this Avenue because I’m so dysfunctional with technology but basically I have adored David Bowie my whole life which was rather comical having my parents wonder why my walls were covered in photos and posters of him and boy George and the cure and the Smiths I’m surprised they didn’t get me locked up when I am just a really ridiculously vanilla girl I guess they call me. I don’t call me anything I’m just me!
Modern Allah
These re-uploadings are giving me life
I agree me too :-)
yeah, but why such low quality...?
Hunky Doris that's probably how they were recorded?
So you will buy them on various "music home videos". Do you know what those are? @@hunky-doris
I can deal with low quality just to see this video again.
I absolutely LOVE that shot of him at 1:36 walking out of his office and everyone rising as he walks past while checking his watch. Just so classy and suave and badass.
Bowie was a sexy MoFo.
❤ AGREED! 👌🏼
Pretty sure it’s a reference to a scene from The Trial by Kafka
the way david copes with the idea of grief is so subtle and powerful. he always manages to make a big deal out of the most intimate details. this song is about terry, his schizophrenic brother who eventually committed suicide. jeez, what a song. the chorus can be easily misinterpreted as inspirational, as in 'jump' means 'take a risk and change your life' but something makes me think that again he talks of the alienation of mental illness. he even references the movie 'la jetee' in this video. david was just on another level artistically and visually compared to any of his contemporaries. light years ahead.
Yeah I think you're right upon assuming, because he says "don't listen to the crowd" near the end. The crowd is telling the subject to jump. Very ahead of his time in spreading awareness of mental health.
Completely correct
Thank you so much. The energy off this song gives me hope again. Thank you 😊
Amazing, I wasn't aware of these details. Thanks for the info
His blue eye maybe reference to a lobotomy performed...
Not only my favorite Bowie song but one of my favorite songs ever created ever in the history of human music. I can't listen to it enough or heap enough praise on it. It is relentlessly listenable, energetic, and it to this day has this future sound that nothing in the past 20 years has come close to touching. This is what music today should have sounded like. Instead music today simultaneously sucks enough to be distressing yet bland and soulless enough that I can't really even remember the names of any recent songs released at all. Thank God we got to have Bowie to leave us actual, real music to listen to for these dark and creatively dead times.
Beautifully put xx x
I think pop radio in general is mostly unfocused(yet at the same time derivatively corporate) slop but there are wonderful musicians in many genres outside the top forty and genre cliché bullshit. You just have hear of them by mouth. Here are my recommendations- Marcus King (already becoming a badass top 50 rock guitarist) Ren (an art pop rapper and talented classical guitar player/that is one of the most in important post modern word smiths in the rock and rap game) The Yawpers (one of the tightest bands on the indie rock scene who never fail to deliver originality yet still not afraid to reference all the artistic greats that come before them) Naked Giants ( fun indie rock with a blues twist) and I recently discovered the electro noise/folk rockers The Nude Party and for Metal/Harder rock there are great bands like Kaleo, Royal Blood and Brian Jonestown Massacre. Just go and explore further than the crap by Taylor Swift, Machine Kelly and Nicki Minaj for real entertainment and artistic expression
I think Sam Fender and Tom Grennan are promising in the current era, but no one will ever hold a torch to David. The man was just a genius.. voice, composition, subject matter, everything.
Incredible video too.
Bowie and Kate Bush were the best single artists produced last century in the UK. Both are musical geniuses. No one like them before or since. Creative original and non commercial
Okay, I'm totally obsessed with this song now!!
Christine Chumley ikr, I've found myself coming back to this album every other day😅
I have been (obsessed with this) since it came out.
I hope in a possitve way.....dont do anything silly
I keep watching this video, David Bowie’s and gestures and facial expressions in the blue room are weird yet intriguing.
Still fresh and innovative 26 years later. David Bowie is his own genre.
30 years later...now;)
Underrated song, underrated video and album. "Black Tie White Noise" was my first Bowie album and it was very ahead of its time
Mine too!
It is 2022 and I am thinking these kind of beats were waaaaay ahead of the time of 93/94
One of the best songs of David Bowie. Underestimated
Agree
Born in 1969, whereas David released his first unbelievable album in 1967, like the Beattles. I Turned back the clocks to make up for lost time and discovered his whole genius through his numerous quality visionary albums. This title was as usual ahead of its time, so gripping...RIP no ones compares to you. Imam was a lucky Lady to gather his inner thoughts. I admire him is an euphemism.
Happy Birthday David - We miss you!! January 8, 2024
The most missed person in the world💔 👑.
THIS IS MY NUMBER-ONE SONG FROM BOWIE (and that's saying a great deal considering the wealth of music he blessed us with), I miss him very much.
It's an excellent choice.
I miss you David
The Same Here😏
we all do...
Millions weep fountains
Genius is a overused word.
David was a genius.
Federica Viviani I understand you very much !
Beautiful man, exquisite hands. Saw Mr. BOWIE in
1974 U.S. tour of Ziggy Stardust, changed our lives
Forever. 80 yrs old & still a Bowie rocker.😅
Such a great man he was
The melody has extreme vulnerability combined with extreme power. And... it's so beautiful running higher and higher. And the video is a masterpiece
This vídeo Is a Real masterpiece
Its for his brother who suffered from mental illness and jumped in front of a train , tore bowie up took him 7 years to accept it to a degree and he wrote this song .True
The most underrated Bowie tune. For his later work this is fantastic…
Bowie even looked like a world class star didn't he?
I just finished listening to Black Tie White Noise after a long time:
it's still a great album today. This song is a true masterpiece.
I listened to it twice today.😅
It's amazing when you realize that Bowie always was innovator in every decade of his 50 years career!
Indeed!
One of my favorite Bowie's songs, from one of his most underrated albums.
This song its AMAZING! what a master piece!!
We miss you more than you could ever imagine Mr. Bowie. There will never be one like you. Rest In Peace.
It seems like David Bowie David Bowie created a new image and sound with every album/project. Prince, the genius he was, his image changes weren't drastic and all his songs had a distinct sound that you know was Prince soon as you heard it. Though he did change it up when he wrote for other people.
Bowie on the other hand, you wouldn't know it was his songs except for the sound of his voice and he created a new persona with different albums.
Star Man, Life on Mars or Rebel Rebel sound nothing like Fame, Golden Years or Let's Dance. A true genius that is sorely missed.
Very underrated Bowie track
Beautiful tribute to his brother ; magnificent Bowie, like always ! The Lord of the pop / rock !
This song really does capture that feeling of "what if I fell" when you get near a high ledge.
He defined every decade in which he released records. What a unique and wonderful talent. It's fantastic to see all these reminders dropping in my inbox again. Every day's a Bowie day!
This song came one year after my cousin, who was one of my best friends, took his own life, after he and hid girlfriend ended their relationship, and he left us a letter.
First time I saw this clip and heard the song the tears just fell off.
The message was clear to me.
But I didn't know, only until years later, that it was written about David's half brother, who committed suicide as well.
The song and the clip are a masterpiece, and the trumpet solo is truly unique.
I have always loved Bowie and creations, but this song together with Heroes, have special meaning for me.
RIP Starman 🙏
.
P.S
I think that the eyes cover that he used this clip gave him the inspiration decades later for Lazarus eye cover.
My favourite Bowie record. His performance is sublime in this video.
Credits to the producer Nile Rogers, another very talented Musician who contributed so much of himself to this masterpiece ..Kudos
OMG!!! The virtual reality goggles he's wearing is like the cloth and buttons he wore in Lazarus!! I never made that connection before.
He just got cooler and cooler.
No, the reference was the film A Clockwork Orange. Bowie liked the movie since Ziggy Stardust.
Fernando Graca: Wrong.
Nothing in this video references the A Clockwork Orange film. You won't even find that claim anywhere online.
> The video specifically and heavily references the '60s short film La Jetee by obscure French film maker Chris Marker, (which was much much later adapted into the full length feature film 12 Monkeys by Terry Gilliam in the mid '90s) which is widely regarded as a classic.
> It also specifically refences 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick.
Yes, Bowie was a Clockwork Orange fan - but it's in the track Girl Loves Me on his final album Blackstar that he partly references it, (by using a lot of Nadsat language words in that song). Not in this video here.
Yes, I noticed that too!
Also, the video references Orson Welles' adaptation of Kafka's 'The Trial' (the faces at 0:18, people standing up in a wave at 1:37, and the use of architecture throughout).
@@lefunk22 Yes, and last scenes of him on the car reference the 'most beautiful suicide', a photo of Evelyn McHale, who threw herself off the Empire State Building in the 1940s and landed on the roof of a car in a near identical pose.
There was nobody like him and certainly nobody to replace him
FINALLY!!!! One of my favorite songs by David Bowie!
Kate Swan me too
Lodger-esque in that suit. Gnash on, David. I miss you every day. #BowieForever
This album was the beginning of the last Bowie phase where he produced music that easily rivals the early catalog. I love how hard he pushes the arrangements to almost breaking.
Ikr? Some of his stuff sounds like it's on the verge of falling apart into chaos, but he almost always manages to keep it coherent somehow. The tension is endlessly fascinating and it's why I never get tired of his music.
I like seeing all of these new uploads. It feels like he’s still with us
He is and always will be :-)
Selma Basic yeah man feel the same but hearing him is a legend
Hell yeah
Selma Basic “He was born again, they say”
Even if he is not physically alive, he will always live in our hearts, and his music will always remind us that he made them with love and meaning so it reminds us that no matter what, he will still live and still be David Bowie. 😄
Here’s a trivia tidbit if you don’t know: the trumpet solo was also the played by “Bowie,” but not this Bowie. A trumpet player named Lester Bowie who “the” Bowie asked to play on the song. Pretty cool.
He artistically fused Jazz, Rock, Pop in one song. Together with his hypnotizing voice - this song oozes talent
This masterpiece is so underrated!
So much love & pain in this song. Unbelieveable visual... I get goosebumps.
Black Thie White Noise is very underated ! Amazing song 🖤
One of my favorites, if not my favorite.
this is aggressively 90's
In the best possible way
Bowie was exceptional. I've been a fan for YEARS. His music is a brilliant legacy.
Made my day again with new videos, RIP David and Terry.
Deena Dunderdale, was Terry's terrible illness also a catalyst for David's own metamorphoses?
Yes I believe so :-)
Deena Dunderdale: the eye mask as like as in black star. This video here deals also with death. What was the relationship between David and Freddy Mercury?
@@rollowed4181 Bowie's claim was for shock. Mercury was gay but it took him a while to come to terms with it.
1.) Has anyone ever made a more beautiful music video? No. 2.) While doing so, has anyone so poetically and specifically communicated about paranoia---with such incredible love? Of course not.
David left and the world instantly went to shit. This was not a coincidence. Miss him every single day.
Almost coincidentally I went to rehab soon after he died.
My father passed away 9 days after Bowie. For me, your statement is true.
Absoloutley true, this corona pandemic is final evidence
Fuq. I miss him. Tears
Miss him dearly. The world has gone to shit since he has left.
The 90's were an ERA for music and film
Out of every video released, this is my favorite of all.
One of the best part 3:07 - the way she drive her eye from the spectator to the eyepiece,
And than Bowie naturally, no mistakes.
Very well done video.
the first two and a half minutes of this video are really good-- something about bowie in this video already feels different than normal (and he looks fantastic as always). the rest of the video truly disturbed me in a way, from the identical nurses saying to jump, to the injury makeup, to the "most beautiful suicide"/lodger pose on the car. this certainly must hit home for him because of the connection to his brother, but i can't help feeling like this came from a personal place as well. some of those smiles and expressions he gave seem too relieved and calm for a suicide, unless he understood on some level the mindset that would make one see it as a relief. fantastic video, speculation aside. eternally grateful we had him as long as we did.
This is because this song was about his brother suicide.
@@carlnilssonyoung8961 Also because of the facial expression of the 'nurses'.Very well acted, by the way.Devoid of-sympathy, emotion,sincerity.Pretensieus and not at all caring.
I keep going back to this every once and a while but the current most striking thing to me is the seemingly endless climbing of the scale at the very end. It's like, "when does this stop going up?!?" and then to FADE OUT on it! Just brilliant on so many levels.
A haunting music video, killer track, outstanding production with an ever so magnetic Bowie.
This song has followed me for the past 30 years.
A hybrid between perfection and liveliness
David Howie. Was and always will be the innovator of modern music!!!!
this song was the reason I became Bowie's fan back in 90's 🙂
Genius. We all miss him.
Totally underrated song, awesome groove meaningful lyrics, one of my all time favorite Bowie songs.
This song got me out of a depressive episode today. I'm more of a Berlin Trilogy/Outside kind of Bowie fan, but this song absolutely rocks. And the backstory of this song is really sad, which makes it more effective for me.
Bowie looks so handsome in this video. I love his facial expressions in the microphone scene. It's crazy how upbeat this song sounds sonically, but it's about his brother that passed away.
Underrated Bowie song, the music, the context of the lyrics and what they're about
My little daily return to the 90s where the music was brilliant.
No other rock star on earth could ever transform themselves like this guy could, and 20 years after this with his next to last album “the next day” he amazed us all again with an even better album! I also have Black Star but haven’t played it once since his sad demise.
I still can Not Listen Black Star
Oh my goodness, I know it'll be hard, but you need to let yourself enjoy Blackstar. Just take the time to really sit down and digest it; it's heavy. You'll probably cry, and that's just fine. Don't deprive yourself of one of his finest creations. He wouldn't want that for you.
@@caityy1334 I’m the same, I have to be in the right mood to listen to it! Can’t believe it’s seven years since he passed!
to me, this is one of his best songs and certainly from an album that doesn't get enough love. especially as he went through not just a creative rut after "let's dance" and then find inspiration again through tin machine. this was a really personal song as it says a lot about the loss of his half-brother terry and how his schizophrenia and mental illness really drove him to suicide.
i LOVE THAT DAVID'S LEGACY DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE BEING TAINTED BY PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED MATERIAL AND CASHING IN ON HIS MEMORY. THANKYOU DAVID FOR PROVIDING SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE SOUNDTRACK TO MY LIFE.
He was adamant that his music not be turned in advertisement fodder during his lifetime. His estate has continued that stance. Several filmmakers wanting to do a film about his life have been told, "You're free to make a film about him; the facts of his life are public domain. But his music is rarely allowed to be used in any way. It's not for sale."
"Space Oddity" was used in the Ben Stiller film, "Walter Mitty," but that was a very rare exception - and not even close to cashing in on Bowie's song.
When I live my dream - an early one but a particularly nice song - has been on a UK ad. British Airways possibly? And David was never that averse to ads - beside Crystal Japan, there was the Sound and Vision version used by Sony for their TVs or even the theme for Blackstar.
And the steady release of expensive limited edition early demos and live albums since his death has been a regular thing (especially on record store day, often on vinyl) together with the big box sets (how else do you buy the Arnold Corns stuff or The Gouster?). You might also want to look at the merchandise on the official website.
None of this seems that unreasonable.
I'm sure there's more.
So good to hear this track again, I totally love Bowie's music and the Black Tie, White Noise album had some awesome tracks on it. Jump they say was written about the suicide of his brother, so it must've been very emotional for David to pen.
Lima Charlie all the madman from the man who sold the world is also about his brother
@@busterthebear6756 I think that his mother suffered same illness.
long long overdue for a vinyl reissue, alongside outside1. and e a r t h l i n g!
Brilliant "come back" with this video and song. Bowie more charismatic than ever.
Jesus, Bowie was just so beautiful. The way he moved, his voice, his eyes. It’s unbelievable.
Utterly arresting. Partly he was genetically blessed, partly it was his mime training. Man knew how to carry himself.
The music scene seems empty without Bowie. Actually it 's empty. I miss you David!!!!
David Bowie was a man of great compassion with a massive heart of pure gold this song globally could have changed the whole way on how we veiw Schizophrenia ' this song was how he felt on his beloved brother Terry 'who had inroduced him too music' when he was very young...David was deeply affected by his brothers condition growing up..This song was a tribute to Terry' this song was an anthem of change in him trying to breaki down the shocking stigma of mental illness...I penned a letter too David in 1992 asking would he help myself and my daughter ' who was suffering from this condition and was fading away into oblivion ' he went beyond that request ' he wrote a song jump they say..Nobody else cared' no family ' or friends' nobody listened to me' not even our caring media ' who used our story for their ratings' and the magazines' press ' who all just cashed in on our story in making money out of a devestating condition' their indifference was just nauseating' ..We did our campaign of awarnenss in trying to break down the myths and misconceptions of schizophtenia' in order to help othr folks' and aid in their recovery ..The aftermath was gross towards us both ... David Bowie was my last resort because i had tried every other avenue ...He was the only person who understood my plea..So i'm just stting the record straght on this deep thinking great artist...He had a heart of pure gold' he had a great understanding on this condition' he tried his best in the only way he knew best..That was through his art of singing ..he was a Earth Angel..Now he sings in Heaven ' for the Univsal Spirit ..King of Kings..So now you have it the truth..
🤍
This song is accurate of what is going on today..... more so now than ever. ..Devastating news everytime I pick up the news paper....David knew the pain of losing his brother in the most dreadfully awful tragic way.....compassion is scarce.....young lives are getting lost jumping off bridges and dying on the railway lines....is all we hear is lessons have been learned...and hearts are getting hardened...people encouraging youngsters to jump to their death like it is some sort of sport.....David could not of shouted any louder with this song.....this song shows the agony of mental illness.......it reached number 9 in the UK chart ...Definitely should of been number 1......David could not of been any clearer with this song...he made it obvious to us all to the anguish of mental disorder...I personally believe he wanted to bring it out into the open.....I miss David Bowie genius music...🎶🎵🎼🎸🎷🎺🎹🎻🥁🎤
WOW just wow 😢❤i hope everything turned out ok for your family. Mentle illness is very misunderstood, thank you for sharing❤❤❤
@@Fightingforms Where would I begin? I wrote him because I had a flash of intuition, and felt he would help to support our media campaign at the time..I just felt he wanted to do something for the tragic big brother he lost in such tragic circumstances., Like his own legacy for Terry ...I had always loved his music from the first album Aladin sane,I was given as a birthday present, in my young days.I feel it could have been his legacy for his brother, and to help others in the future..I just feel it wasn't allowed ..I never thought in my wildest dreams thought he would pen a song. like jump they say... The song remains eternally a memory forever etched in our hearts ...As for me, the price would prove to be a hellish struggle to survive because everybody who ever knew my name ganged up on me and outcasted me...Yet I would do it all over again on my own, In a heartbeat, because my kid survived all the hell, and we are closer than ever today she can now do her beloved art again, something that wasn't possible back then...I got my kid back..Like I said in my earlier post ..God knows David's soul and he sings with the angel realm now.. Thank you for your kind comment..
This is absolutely consistent with everything I read about Bowie while he was dying from cancer. My understanding is that he did what he could to help the others undergoing treatment be more comfortable. He put them at ease. Just a stellar human being in every possible respect which makes losing him in 2016 so much more painful.
Only David Bowie can make checking his watch the coolest move in video history~!
This music video was ahead of its era.
Non really. This was the era when a lot of money (and creativity) was put into the music and the videos alike, because the creators could afford it.
One of my favourite Bowie tracks
Underrated song from a genius.
There will never be another artist who is so proud of his work that he references past subject matter in new compositions.
It’s like he was testing us to see if we could find them ie Bowie’s version of “Where’s Wally”.From the obvious” Major Tom “references in “Ashes to Ashes “to the subtle “hitting an all time LOW”
Love the re use of the backhand swipe in “Jump” and the “Station to Station” outfit in the “Lazarus” video.
I have often seen this album referred to as ‘utterly forgettable’ and the likes, and, well, I’m just here to yell out loud that I think it is a downright fantastic album and this song one of my favourites on it. You’ve got to give kudos to bowie for not repeating himself very much. God how I miss him, by the way.
Yeah, people are dumb, This song is brilliant. :)
Obviously, these idiots who even dare to give an opinion about Bowie's work are the forgetables..
Yes! Thank you! I've been shouting this from the rooftops since I heard this song & album (although I've never jumped 😉).
Bowie was a genius. Dear God, how I miss him. ❤️
NO ONE GOES NEAR BOWIE THE BEST IMO WAY AHEAD OF TIMES HIS MUSIC WILL NEVER DIE
one of my favourite David Bowie songs
Hes dead now :)

From 1993
@@ivankaramasov woaa
this just proves that he was still ahead of our time ahaha
RIP Terry Burns,(his half brother), who committed suicide by standing over a train. RIP David Bowie! This song helped me get through a lot. It basically means you have to listen to what your heart is telling you to do. If you’re suicidal,then reach out to a family member or a friend that can help you. Don’t have the Heavenly Father on one shoulder and the devil on another. In the end,you have to believe somebody. Thank you David for your loving sweet music. I will always love and miss you. ❤️❤️♥️♥️🍒
Grande canzone!! Super Bowie....love forever
I really want to see this video in 4k!!! I believe that I'm going to see some day
Spot on, me too it’s a brilliant song with a story behind it
Er ist einfach Genial...er ist Bowie!!!!!!
you had me at 'Jump' my love... David Bowie, the indisputable King of Music
jello
Eh?
To me, there are some elements in this video that are reminiscent of The Man Who Fell to Earth, from the corporate intrigue to Bowie being thrown out a window like Buck Henry's character, to Bowie being blindfolded and tortured, not unlike Newton's fate in the movie. I've always loved this song and video.
I've been trying to think why this music video was causing an ache in my heart and what you said makes sense completely. It 100% has the vibe of of man who fell to earth, especially the part where he gets taken and tortured. It is also sad because it's for his brother.
I think that this is an attempt to talk about the effects that life in a hyper competitive world may have.
This is why, according to me, the scene is located in a coorporation.
If you want to achieve something, thenb"Jump! They say", namely do what you can and more!
But this gets to frustration and madness and the only jump that can stop suffering is the one from the rooftop
Most on point depiction of the true life experience on earth. Just stunning. Bowie gave so much but never could give everything away.
My fav Bowie’s video ever!!!! One of the best works by Mark Romanek!
Masterpiece
Great song and fantastic videoclip.Great looking man.I think he dedicated the song to his brother.
Dude is the perfect teacher. 🤗
Bro has a VR headset 20 years before they were invented and made a song about society making you do the worst thing to yourself. Relevant eternally
One of the best from one of the best. A highlight from an album that I love and listen to regularly.
Simplemente, David Bowie. Único.
Superb! And so underated! David Bowie at his finest
