I was 14 when this came out and absolutely obsessed with David Bowie. I taped it off TV and watched it almost every day. He is younger in this video than I am now.
You had great taste at 14 and obviously still do. I miss him. Knowing he is never going to make another song or make a video. Thank God for TH-cam and music!
We are going to lose many of the legends of our best era of music. It has already begun. I wish ticket prices weren't so high! These will be the last opportunity to get to see the icons perform.

This song plays at my job and every time it comes on I feel like a kid in a candy shop for the 3/4 mins it plays. Such an icon, there will never be another David Bowie.
And thank god We live in this technological world where we have these videos of him to keep with us for eternity CAUSE HE deserves to be around for eternity
Don't ever be sad that David Bowie left us be awed that he lived, that he shared so much and that you got to exist on planet Earth at the exact same time.
I love Bowie so much. I'm not one who gets sad from listening to these songs, only when it's "I Can't Give Everything Away", cause I've jammed out to these songs so much I just always know it's Bowie rocking it out. He'll always be alive through that
I miss Him so badly. He was so talented in many ways - multi instrumental, dancing, acting. I love to watch this video and see Him smiling, dancing, joking. Genius, but still normal person. Not like celebrities. He was shining with his own light. Always on my mind.
I listened to Bowie in my mid teens. Later on, while I was in the service,I saw this song on the jukebox in a bar on base, I played this song over and over. All the Lifers kept giving me dirty looks, and I just stared back, as if to say KMA,man. 1975,Korea.
Mr. BOWIE, es usted irrepetible. Su dominio en el escenario. Su voz. La música de su canciones. Su estudiada belleza, a veces, andrógina. Seguro que donde vive ahora le han dedicado una gran estrella a su talento. Porque ahora es universal.
Bowie was like February 29th. Something rare and strange that doesn't really make all that much sense. But without it, everything that does make sense would fall apart.
I found this cassette single, still wrapped and in a Sam Goody bag on the bus, on my way home from the mall. I told the driver and asked if they had a Lost & Found. He told me, “Young man, we don’t even *HAVE* a Lost & Found. However, I admire what you’re trying to do.” So I took it home, listened to it, and was introduced to the music of Mr. Bowie.
If you haven't seen the movie Labyrinth starring David Bowie, you must! It's great for children and adults! I still love that movie and always will! Jim Henson was a huge part of it. 2 legends that have left their marks on this world.
Love this version! I hope you continue to upload more "less famous" David's videos. I hope to watch someday a high quality official release of "Real Cool World", a criminally underrated song from his 90s era
David Bowie grate singer brilliant this song is brilliant grate video. Fame . Very outstanding performance brilliant song. All his songs are brilliant fantastic. Brings so meny memories. He will be sadly missed. God bless him Mr. David Bowie 🌺
David Bowie teaming up with Louise Lecavalier from the Canadian dance group Lalala Human Steps was an absolute delight. The choreography fits the song so well. Perfection.
it was the Ashes to Ashes song and video on the beach that got me, 12 years old, 1980. Then I found other songs, Young Americans and Changes, were still on the radio. Saw him live in 83, aged 15. what a legend.
Thank you Bowie for your legacy and your amazing talent that showed us that is okay to be ourselves❤️ your legacy will reign forever and ever❤️ you’ve helped me through my dark times and thank you, I love you❤️ I don’t know what I would do without you. I’m sad that I’ll never to get to meet you, since I began to be a huge fan after your passing ( even though I kind grew up listening to some of your songs since my dad is a huge fan of yours) and I miss you so much it hurts. I own every album you’ve published on cds and some vinyls. But my beautiful Starman you still live through your music and your presence is with each and everyone of your fans, I can feel it. I love you ❤️
David Bowie - Wikipedia David Robert Jones, 69 (8 January 1947 - 10 January 2016), known professionally as David Bowie (/ˈboʊi/ BOH-ee), was an English singer, songwriter, musician and actor. Regarded as one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, Bowie was acclaimed by critics and musicians, particularly for his innovative work during the 1970s. His career was marked by reinvention and visual presentation, and his music and stagecraft has had a significant impact on popular music. Bowie developed an interest in music from an early age. He studied art, music and design before embarking on a professional career as a musician in 1963. He released a string of unsuccessful singles with local bands and a self-titled solo album (1967) before achieving his first top-five entry on the UK singles chart with "Space Oddity" (1969). After a period of experimentation, he re-emerged in 1972 during the glam rock era with the flamboyant and androgynous alter ego Ziggy Stardust. The character was spearheaded by the success of "Starman" and its album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (both 1972), which won him widespread popularity. In 1975, Bowie's style shifted towards a sound he characterised as "plastic soul", initially alienating many of his UK fans but garnering his first major US crossover success with the number-one single "Fame" and the album Young Americans (both 1975). Bowie wrote "Fame" with former Beatle John Lennon, who also contributed backing vocals and guitar. In 1976, Bowie starred in the cult film The Man Who Fell to Earth and released Station to Station. In 1977, he again changed direction with the electronic-inflected album Low, the first of three collaborations with Brian Eno that came to be known as the Berlin Trilogy. "Heroes" (1977) and Lodger (1979) followed; each album reached the UK top five and received lasting critical praise. After uneven commercial success in the late 1970s, Bowie had three number-one hits: the 1980 single "Ashes to Ashes", its album Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) and "Under Pressure" (a 1981 collaboration with Queen). He achieved his greatest commercial success in the 1980s with Let's Dance (1983). During his lifetime, his record sales, estimated at over 100 million worldwide, made him one of the best-selling musicians of all time. He is the recipient of numerous accolades, including six Grammy Awards and four Brit Awards. Often dubbed the "chameleon of rock" due to his constant musical reinventions, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996. Rolling Stone ranked him among the greatest singers, songwriters and artists of all time. As of 2022, Bowie was the best-selling vinyl artist of the 21st century. Bowie died of liver cancer in his New York City apartment on 10 January 2016. He had been diagnosed 18 months earlier, but he had not made his condition public. The Belgian theatre director Ivo van Hove, who had worked with Bowie on his off-Broadway musical Lazarus, explained that while Bowie was unable to attend its rehearsals due to the progression of the disease, he had otherwise continued to work during his illness. Bowie had insisted that he did not want a funeral, and according to his death certificate he was cremated in New Jersey on 12 January. As he wished in his will, his ashes were scattered in a Buddhist ceremony in Bali. NOTE: Above is a very abbreviated version of his Wikipedia page RIP David Bowie. Thank you for all you gave to this world with your beautiful voice & talents. ❤️🎵🎶🎼
I have been a fan for years. I enjoyed all his music and videos. I got to see him once live in Toronto. I was sad to hear about his passing in 2016. But his music will never die.
PHENOMENAL TALENT NO ONE GOES ANYWHERE NEAR BOWIE HE WAS AND STILL IS HUGE WORLD WIDE HE WAS TRULY A PIONEER TO MUSIC INDUSTRY AND THE MOST INFLUENTIAL ARTIST EVER
Ringo's Rings Those are all great. I like his Thin White Duke times. And Stardust. I love Life on Mars? And as for the Beatles, I can't say. I like most of them. Who else do you like?
This is the 1st Bowie song I ever heard-it was back in the 80s as a kid, and although I have tons of his music, this is the one I listen to almost daily. I would never have guessed those were the lyrics! 😮 "Nien!"? And the bridge: "Could it be the best?" I always heard as scatting, lol!😂 I'm sure David would get a kick out of that, or give one of his warm chuckles. Such a gentleman.😌
A nice song. I like both the original version of "Fame" from the 1975 "Young American" album and this version from 1990. I think that David Bowie is a legend, because even after his death his amazing music will always be there and he will always be remembered for the good things that he brought into the music industry. There will never be a another, David Bowie. :)
Fame, makes a man take things over Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow Fame, puts you there where things are hollow Fame Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame That burns your change to keep you insane Fame Fame, what you like is in the limo Fame, what you get is no tomorrow Fame, what you need you have to borrow Fame Fame, "Nien! It's mine!" is just his line To bind your time, it drives you to, crime Fame Could it be the best, could it be? Really be, really, babe? Could it be, my babe, could it, babe? Really, really? Is it any wonder I reject you first? Fame, fame, fame, fame Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool Fame Fame, bully for you, chilly for me Got to get a rain check on pain Fame Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame Fame, fame, fame Fame What's your name?
Wild. Mr Bowie out-Voguing all the Voguers of the time, like he out-everythinged everything! Is he taking the p**s out of the unrelentless gunkiness of late 80s pop? I think he was having at least a sly smirk before he got back onto the mothership of creativity following his own 80s dive. The man never fails to surprise. I find it something to take into a quiet corner and purr in.
And THAT is how you re-make a song. Take the original, contemporize it but make it enjoyable without sounding too artificial. In other words, take what was already great and make it greater. Love this song, and the video is just as excellent.
![David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World [2020 Mix] [Official Lyric Video]](/img/n.gif)
A mime, a painter, a writer, a dancer, a singer, an actor, a chameleon, an icon, a legend and a kind man. As long as there's music he'll live on.
amen
Yeah he did it all . And he did it with such class
What time do they serve dinner in here?
A legend. He will be remembered!

When I listen to this track I really can hear John’s influence
listen "hot" by James Brown.
Not a day goes by that I don’t appreciate this mans work and influence on this earth and on myself as an individual. Rest In Peace David Bowie
I adore David and Louise together, each with their own style of androgyny and both with great hair!

I have a feeling he'll come back in future and bless us with his music from space.
Wow, didn't know this existed, so cool

Fame, makes a man take things over
Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame, puts you there where things are hollow
Fame
Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame
That burns your change to keep you insane
Fame
Fame, what you like is in the limo
Fame, what you get is no tomorrow
Fame, what you need you have to borrow
Fame
Fame, "Nien! It's mine!" is just his line
To bind your time, it drives you to, crime
Fame
Could it be the best, could it be?
Really be, really, babe?
Could it be, my babe, could it, babe?
Really, really?
Is it any wonder I reject you first?
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool
Fame
Fame, bully for you, chilly for me
Got to get a rain check on pain
Fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame
Fame, fame, fame
Fame
What's your name?

I ain't understand the difference between the 90's version & the original version. But I like this song. 🙂
