2:14 has to be my favorite part. We've got Mick singing whilst Bowie, back turned, just does jazz hands before turning around to sing and then side glancing Mick like he's a lunatic and hasn't been doing whatever the heck is going on the whole video before that moment.
He could have picked a better shirt yes. But he still looks great, they are young here. They both look great here. Great video they pulled off. I love it. They were trying to look gay.
This is my go-to video when trying to explain the 80s to people who weren't born yet. A time when two of the greatest sex icon/rock stars on the planet could make a homoerotic video with one prancing around in yoga pants, a bolero shirt and white trainers whilst the other rocks out in a romper suit and trench coat and no-one thought it was weird...
There is nothing homoerotic about this video .. it was talentless and cringe worthy then when it was first released and is even worse looking back .... what were they thinking, it’s not cool 😎
The fact this appears to have been made on a budget of £5 makes it so much better. -Random abandoned building. -Bowie appears to be in his pyjamas plus a trench coat. -Using car headlights instead if proper lighting. -Mick drinking Pepsi mid recording. -Nothing in the video apart from Bowie and Jagger fucking around. 11/10
Dude, it’s true. They had a couple hours to throw this song/video together. Likely told them to do whatever. They couldn’t even edit out Jagger taking a Diet Coke break.
@@dickpunch --- that Diet Coke break always cracked me up --- basically Jagger telling the film crew to "fuck off" because he was thirsty and didnt care about wasting videotape LOL

I'm 14 and I've succeeded in doing this! Me and my best mate were dancing to this song in the Bromsgrove high street about a month and a half ago! It was after school and we decided to go and get some sweets from the pound shop in town, I had my phone and these two came on shuffle - we turned it up and just danced. I'm pretty sure about 3 parents pulled their children onto the other side of the high street!
This is one of my favorite things in the world. I had a shitty day today but this video made it better. From Mick Jagger’s running in place open to David Bowie’s ridiculous outfit.…the dancing and singing in each other's face…God, I love this awful, brilliant thing.
Disagree. This isn't bad dancing, this is perfect dancing. They are in rhytm and just Goofing around and having fun. A dance without having fun is an awful dance.
I wish I had any sort of relationship like these two had, whether it's romantic or platonic, I don't care, I just want someone I can have fun with like this and be happy with like these two.
