David Bowie's style was, simply, David Bowie. He wasn't like anyone else and no one else was like him. He was pure unapologetic musical genius. RIP, David...you are GREATLY missed.
Yes, the black record buying community gave David Bowie his first number one hit on Billboard in the states! Funky soul music that song be--Fame Mr. Bowie even performed it on soul train! ⭐😍 ❤️🖤💚 ✌🏾 ✊🏾👈🏾
@@luissoriano1492 Him and The Beatles were notorious for Reinventing Themselves. He worked with Nile Rogers of the Disco Group Chic who worked with a veritable who's who from Sister Sledge, Diana Ross, and Duran Duran (After Andy Taylor & Roger Taylor "left"). John Lennon who was a close Friend wrote "Fame" and he became one of the very few White Artists to do Soul Train in the 1970's. This Album came out after he successfully detoxed himself from Drugs. He's also a very smart Businessman who now Co-Owns The Beatles Music Catalogue with Michael Jackson.
Growing up at the same time Bowie was putting out albums you just got use to the fact that every Bowie song would be different and Bowie would look different. Brilliant.
React to "Ashes to Ashes" then "I'm Afraid Of Americans" (live), and then "The Little Drummer Boy" (with Bing Crosby). David Bowie covered the entire musical spectrum.
I couldn't have said it better. I miss him very much. You can see him in movies he is in. It is called "Labyrinth".....he was in other movies too, look up his movies on search engine. 😊 technology is wonderful. I grew up without it.
@@lorrieannesilvey474 .." the Man who fell to earth" the best of David's films... I think it was written with Bowie in mind... he is the Alien "starman" that came to us...and boy did he blow our minds...such an influence on my life... stay safe ❤🙏
That’s actually the GOAT Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar....He played throughout this album. I think he’s in the “China Girl” video....A less popular song is “Cat people” but SRV shines on that one
Unfortunately your wasting your time even mentioning Nile Rodgers,he wouldn't know Chic if it ran him over,plus only a knob wouldn't know that's Australia. RIP the USA. Thick fucks.
I remember seeing the news headline: David Bowie has passed away. I was just shocked. How? He was to young. I texted my sister if she’d seen the headline and she didn’t. She was just as shocked if not more than me. Just awful.
The mastermind of the great Nile Rodgers on production ( Chic, Sister Sledge, Madonna, Duran Duran and Bowie to name a few) for the best 80s pop anthems!
@@kimberlysaffles9332 I always wondered how someone could be so Kool... you think I haven't heard David in a while and Wham Bam thank you man, he come back out looking stunning and new...true style setter! ..Enjoy the ever lasting Starman.. "luv on ya" 🙏
@Luna Raven Hey Hi Luna, yeah I was only 12 but what a imprint on my life... so glad it was Hunky Dory that did it for you too. the man was a legend in the true sence of the word.. when ever I see a Bowie reaction vid, I'm off again into his back catalogue...just a seventy kids with glitter in my hair.. stay safe my friend..🙏❤
Bowie always seemed to be just ahead of the next music trend. A master of reinventing his persona & music to be current with the times. Also , while he was a decent guitar player , that is none other than the legendary Stevie Ray Vaughan playing the solo at the end of this song. He was invited to tour with Bowie for this album but declined to instead tour & promote his debut album Texas Flood. Thank god he made that choice !
GOD I LOVE BOWIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! .. HOPE YOU REACT TI HIS SONG S MODERN LOVE AND BLUE JEAN ...GREAT SONGS ... AND T O GO FURTHER BACK I HOPE YOU REACT TO GOLDEN YEARS!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH JAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great music video, as an Australian, it’s so great to see indigenous stars in this video. Bowie was always about representation. From one Bowie album to the next you’ll get a different style of Bowie
"Put on your red shoes and dance the blues...."......hell, yes.........video was shot in Australia (early scene in pub was in Outback, a small town called Carinda)..........Stevie Ray Vaughan contributes some mighty fine guitar licks throughout.....Thanks for posting!!!!!
Bowieeeeee!!! And Nile Rodgers! Now I’m at the part where you’re talking about Bowie’s style. He had so many. He re-created himself over and over and over. There are several articles that talk about how he influenced more genres of music than any other artist. Icon!!
His style is David Bowie style! One of the great chameleons of music. He aspired to change style and persona with every album he would put out. React to 'Life On Mars' please and thank you. Sending good vibes from Ireland 🇮🇪
I went to the 'Serious Moonlight' Tour when it hit London, there will never ever be anyone like Bowie, still can't believe he's gone but feel privileged to have been in the world at the same time as this man...RIP David.. x
I have never seen him in concert, but I have a Serious Moonlight tour book. I have been a Bowie fan since first I heard the Heroes album. Heroes is still my favorite Bowie song.
Loved all his music 70s, 80s and 90s. David Bowie was always good at reinventing himself. "Jump they say" has a sax solo on it or china girl is also worth a listen.
Cousin, your delightful innocence is one of your most appealing traits, and I truly enjoy it. Other reaction sites claim not to have researched songs, but obviously have, so I now only watch you, as you offer that refreshing naïvité each time. Bowie here was focussed on the plight of aboriginal Australians, which at the time he sang this was finally becoming an issue of shared shame in that country.
One guy who is so good, his on a different planet, first heard him age 7 in 1969! Just incredible! Please listen to the diamond Dogs album Jovaughn it’s too good for words.
We went to Alice Springs for the video. It was ridiculously hot. Like 40 celsius. Also Brisbane and the Marshall Islands. Actually the same week we shot China Girl. I don't remember SRV having any part of the recording, he was there for China Girl tho obviously. David wasn't super confident about his own playing at that time, so Stevie was maybe brought in later. The initial takes for that solo were Carlos Alomar. Then David and I did a simpler version which apparently was copied by SRV. David did more of his guitar parts than he's credited with.
I remember my very first job interview as a secretary was for David’s personal management company. I recognized the artwork on the door before I entered. (I can’t recall the name, but I’m pretty sure it was on 7th Ave - possibly 810 7th - as I worked for another company in that building a few years later). I recall the gentleman I interviewed with telling me that it was a “one-girl office”, and I’d be responsible for stocking the penthouse whenever David was in town. I was young and a bit starstruck. Before I left, the gentleman offered me albums to take with me, but every one he offered I already had. 🤣 But it’s a day I’ll never forget. I just wish he’d been in town so I could’ve met him. (Who am I kidding? I would’ve turned to jelly. 🤣) *sigh*
@@Jillyconjem Like, word! So cool. I would have been jelly also, I was jelly when I saw him. We all were. He had a silk suit, Panama hat, blond, just like the video. Oh my...
@@DawnSuttonfabfour He was a beautiful man with amazing creativity. I so wish I’d seen him perform. But anxiety is a real participation/activity killer. 🤷🏼♀️ But what a beautiful man in every way. *sigh*
David Bowie re-invented himself, his sound, his look and his life so many times. His message is be you. And these styles lived in David. I was a freshman in high school with Ziggy Stardust photo in my locker. Fifty years later he still touches that place ... just be YOU.
David Bowie/Putting Out Fire (With Gasoline) There are three versions of this song by David Please pick the original version from the soundtrack of the motion picture Cat People. The soundtrack was scored and musically performed by the great Georgia Moroder, with David Bowie on vocals for two songs on the album. Very underrated as soundtracks go. He is best known for being instrumental in the majority of big hits by the late, great Donna Summer.
If I remember correctly China Girl and Modern Love were on this record too. All good songs. Hope u get a chance to check them out. Thanks for another great pick!
@@meganwilliams2962 Me too. He is spellbinding in The Man Who Fell to Earth. The sense of loss and alienation in his character is palpable and that vacant look on his face throughout...though I don’t think he was acting it! He famously said he couldn’t remember actually making the film, having been in the grips of his addiction. So beautiful, nevertheless.
One of my favourite Bowie songs. His voice is SO beautiful. His voice is wonderful, anyway, but in this song, it's wonderful!!! "Put on your red shoes and dance the blues." and the beautiful line, "Because my love for you would break my heart in two." I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for uploading. I don't know if you've heard it, or if you've done another vid on it, but "HEROES" is wonderful as well.
Bowie was a globally adored musical icon with a huge catalogue of amazing music running over 4 decades and something like 27 studio albums alone. He loved reinventing himself and did so over and over. He was a groundbreaking artist and genius. I seriously recommend this rabbit hole ❤ I think you'd love 'Heroes' (amongst about 100 others 🤩)
Everything by Bowie is phenomenal. I recommend Suffragette City, I'm Afraid of Americans, or Starman. He also did some of the best collaborative work out there. I'm Afraid of Americans is with Trent Reznor. Dancing In The Street is with Mick Jagger. Bowie was a musical genius and a rock god. He is missed daily.
Jay - you checked out his older stuff & I'm so glad you're seeing how much of a chameleon he is!! His musical influence cant be understated. Pleasssse check out MY favorite David Bowie songs! These are soooooo good! - China Girl (his VOICE IS 🥰🔥) - Modern Love - Heroes By the way, that's SRV on guitar!! Sooooooooooooo HOT!!
Was my dad's fave song, mine too, love love love the beats, you can't help but dance to it. Other ones I love of his are Heroes, Starman, China girl & from his movie Labyrinth a song called "Magic Dance" all awesome songs. 😎👌🎵
I have not heard this song in years and I do mean years and it sounds the same! On Awesome song There is a reason why Beverly Johnson the supermodel was married to this man! They were actually married until he passed away
Back when he was the "White Duke", so much class and funk, love me some David Bowie since i was a kid back in the 80's and he was the Goblin King, you can't put him in a category, he's just magic and i miss him.
I envy you hearing these for the first time. I remember what it was like for me, and watching your videos helps recapture those moments. China Girl next! Thanks man!
Nile Rodgers working his musical magic. If you ever get a chance to see him play live with his band Chic, there's a huge chance you'll be blown away by them playing this live.
David Bowie was like a chameleon, he wasn't the same persona for too long. There were so many sides to him to explore. This song was a huge hit and I totally remember dancing to this song at the clubs. Growing up with David Bowie's music of the 70s and 80s, when David Bowie passed away, I cried like a baby. It felt like a part of my life passed with him. I was so sad. Very few celebrities affect me that way but, David Bowie was definitely a special soul. Check out his interviews with MTV when he calls out racism in America, even in music, and really just lays it out there as the host struggles to explain it.
I got bit by the Bowie bug back in the early '70's & it was always exciting to experience each new album of his when they came out. Each one took me on a different journey & yet each time the ride seemed very personal, like he was taking my hand & leading the way. He stayed with me all through the challenges of my life & his passing was a loss I can't describe. It thrills me to see younger people discovering his music to this day. I hope & pray he still affects people with the incredible gift he has left behind in his music.
A Nile Rodgers production (he revealed this song's demo was so dull and dark he almost had to redo it) with a superb Stevie Ray Vaughan outro guitar solo. And - no, you don't seem to be having a first time here 😜
I don't know if you know this Stevie Ray Vaughan plays guitar for him on this track. That's why this vibe is different butt. SRV we all know where he done after that God Bless.
David Bowie's style was, simply, David Bowie. He wasn't like anyone else and no one else was like him. He was pure unapologetic musical genius. RIP, David...you are GREATLY missed.
You are SO RIGHT !
💯
Missed every day.
He is a chameleon with an unmistakable soul vibe.
Yes, the black record buying community gave David Bowie his first number one hit on Billboard in the states! Funky soul music that song be--Fame Mr. Bowie even performed it on soul train! ⭐😍

He had a very unique style that's ever evolving but you ALWAYS know it's him!! Love him
Bowie is a musical chameleon. Trying to keep up with his style is impossible.
He was style that everyone was trying to mimic 💖
Growing up at the same time Bowie was putting out albums you just got use to the fact that every Bowie song would be different and Bowie would look different. Brilliant.
React to "Ashes to Ashes" then "I'm Afraid Of Americans" (live), and then "The Little Drummer Boy" (with Bing Crosby). David Bowie covered the entire musical spectrum.
Agreed. The only consistency in his style is that the music is good. That's his style: good music.
@@bostonwhofan Can we add "This Is Not America" to that list?
Bowie doesn't have a style. Bowie is every style . Bowie is an individual. Bowie is universal. I will miss his new music in my future.
I couldn't have said it better. I miss him very much. You can see him in movies he is in. It is called "Labyrinth".....he was in other movies too, look up his movies on search engine. 😊 technology is wonderful. I grew up without it.
SO true.

The White Duke produced by Nile Rodgers. Pop doesn't get any better than this.
I literally could hear this anywhere in the world and know I was going to have a good time.
The Thin White Duke persona dates to 1976 or so. I don’t recall that early 1980s Bowie gave a name to his style and persona during those years.
@@lesliegolding7159 I guess he said it as a nickname for Bowie.
Chic
That’s actually the GOAT Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar....He played throughout this album. I think he’s in the “China Girl” video....A less popular song is “Cat people” but SRV shines on that one
Yeah, Stevie Ray on guitar made this song, and made this album. It rocks hard because of him.
China Girl is a great song too!
Ok I didn't know that! Nice tidbit. SRV could do no wrong on anything he played.
I always liked the song Car people. Now I know why STV.
Wow...SRV, Nile Rogers and Bowie all on one track! No wonder it's one of the best songs ever!
This song was a huge hit for him. Produced by Nile Rodgers who also produced Madonna’s Like a Virgin Album.
So many great songs, this is up there with the best 👌
Nile Rodgers is one of the greatest producers of all time.
Duran Duran, INXS , Mick Jagger, Diana Ross, Debbie Harry, Daft Punk and many more
Unfortunately your wasting your time even mentioning Nile Rodgers,he wouldn't know Chic if it ran him over,plus only a knob wouldn't know that's Australia. RIP the USA. Thick fucks.
@@mstyles2667 Absolutely, I adore him alone, with CHIC and as a producer.
R.I.P. David. Another one taken from us way too soon! I still cant believe he's gone.

@@christianhelwig I know. It blows my mind and I hate it.
@@yvonnewinters9699 I heard it in passing and thought it was just a rumor st first.
David Bowie's "style" was whatever HE decided it was at any given time.
You never knew what to expect from his next album!
or from him as Phillip Jeffries....
Truth.
Young Americans is my favorite Bowie song.
Luther Vandross led the chorus on that song.
It was in Australia, Bowie's singing bits filmed at the Carinda Hotel, I'm sure people will travel there just for a drink in there.
Yep, In Carinda NSW. It features Australian Aborigines in it.
I live in Melbourne and hope to make it there one day - literally the middle of nowhere though lol
I **thought** it looked Aussie.
China Girl was filmed down under too. 💖🇦🇺
@@uncle_thulhu
Yeah it features aboriginals.
This was another huge song. You can't go wrong with Bowie.
You certainly can't, what's not to love?
More Bowie for JV!!!
I think everyone loves this song!
Regardless of colour, gender, age.
Reminds me of my last year of school! Happy times 😀
💯!!
If you like David Bowie’s dancing songs you should listen to “China Girl” and “Modern Love”. Classic 80’s pop. I dare you to stand still... 😉
When Bowie was interviewed by MTV he gave them hell for not showing enough black artists when there were so many good ones out there. Gotta love him!
I'm pretty sure that video is here on YT.

Ashes to Ashes is one of his best songs in my opinion. He has so many different styles he really appeals to so many genres.
Ashes to Ashes is his best song.
Ashes To Ashes, Fashion, & Under Pressure are my favs. With This Is Not America right behind those.
I used to open my radio show with "I am a DJ." That one is in my top 5 of his songs.
This is filmed in Australia.
Loved this and China girl when they came out , great videos too

David Bowie changed up his style throughout his career. He became different characters. Please listen to Space Oddity by Bowie.

"Young American's" is another fantastic song by Bowie.

Fantastic film!

I have not heard this song in years and I do mean years and it sounds the same! On Awesome song
There is a reason why Beverly Johnson the supermodel was married to this man! They were actually married until he passed away
Iman was his wife. They were married from April 1992 until his death in 2016.
Bowie’s supermodel wife was Iman :)
He was married to Beverly Johnson? That must have been quite a shock to Iman, his wife from 1992 until his death.
This is 80s Bowie. Try “Boys Keep Swinging” and “Fashion”.
Put Blue Jean on your list. I think you will like it too. The original video for it is almost a short movie. Yes, I think you will like it.
I still have my VHS of the long form video. 💜
@@Jillyconjem lolol, me too. It sits beside my 8 track tape of KISS Destroyer.
@@Ancaladar100 It is just so cool. The makeup was so amazing. 💜💜💜
@@Jillyconjem Right??!! Still one of my favorite videos.
Back when he was the "White Duke", so much class and funk, love me some David Bowie since i was a kid back in the 80's and he was the Goblin King, you can't put him in a category, he's just magic and i miss him.
He is legend indeed. I hope you react next to Mariah Carey "Love takes time stockholm 1990" i promise you will get goosebumps ❤️
Checkout Blue jeans by David Bowie
David Bowie has always adapted to change well, plus I think he really enjoys redesigning himself.
I envy you hearing these for the first time. I remember what it was like for me, and watching your videos helps recapture those moments. China Girl next! Thanks man!
Another great song! 👍
Nile Rodgers working his musical magic. If you ever get a chance to see him play live with his band Chic, there's a huge chance you'll be blown away by them playing this live.
I seen chic a few years back.. Niles still got it!
1982 83 84 was crazy Dope... Michael, David, Prince, Madonna, Collins, Freddy.......
David Bowie was like a chameleon, he wasn't the same persona for too long. There were so many sides to him to explore. This song was a huge hit and I totally remember dancing to this song at the clubs. Growing up with David Bowie's music of the 70s and 80s, when David Bowie passed away, I cried like a baby. It felt like a part of my life passed with him. I was so sad. Very few celebrities affect me that way but, David Bowie was definitely a special soul. Check out his interviews with MTV when he calls out racism in America, even in music, and really just lays it out there as the host struggles to explain it.
The Most Funky Soulful WBOAT out of England. He was a Capricorn!!!! RIP David! We LOVE You!!!
David Bowie is Very Artsy 💞

@6:05 Stevie Ray Vaughan! (Gone way too soon)
David Bowie had such a wide range of music and that's what made him so great!
Modern love .....is another good one
I got bit by the Bowie bug back in the early '70's & it was always exciting to experience each new album of his when they came out. Each one took me on a different journey & yet each time the ride seemed very personal, like he was taking my hand & leading the way. He stayed with me all through the challenges of my life & his passing was a loss I can't describe. It thrills me to see younger people discovering his music to this day. I hope & pray he still affects people with the incredible gift he has left behind in his music.
Love it!!👠👠
Now this is a song I can get behind. Not a huge David Bowie fan but this song is great
Filmed in Australia with our lovely First Nation people. He was constantly re-inventing himself. Listen to China Girl.
Early MTV classic by David Bowie! And you might know the beat from Puff Daddy and Mase with Been Around The World
A Nile Rodgers production (he revealed this song's demo was so dull and dark he almost had to redo it) with a superb Stevie Ray Vaughan outro guitar solo.
And - no, you don't seem to be having a first time here 😜
The guitar solo at the end is played by Stevie Ray Vaughn. He was really pissed when the video came out and it showed Bowie playing it.
I don't know if you know this Stevie Ray Vaughan plays guitar for him on this track. That's why this vibe is different butt. SRV we all know where he done after that God Bless.
