Just watched an interview of him on the Dick Cavett show. It's amazing how when we age our mannerisms become more refine and precise. We become better versions of ourselves. I think we all need to do interviews at 20 and then at 50 using the same questions. It would be interesting to see how our mannerisms would evolve.
Brilliant mind, having up and downs, but the end reaching peace, consolidating his extraordinary life with Art, music and his journey to accomplish his best...being himself.
Great to visit on his 75th. Did smoking contribute to an early death? Perhaps, but it wouldn't matter after having such a successful life ultimately. His creativity as a life force continues to inspire me.
Interesting to see him get interviewed by The Turtles, based on their look id say this was probably not long before or after they were touring with Frank Zappa
Mark Voleman & Howard Kaylen who went on to perform with Frank Zappa. Bowie was always very intelligent & interesting. So blessed to have seen him on his reality tour it was phenomenal.
@@hawkwind7by7 I remember hearing about David Bowie wanting to leave music behind to train as a monk. A monk he faced on his journey, told him to do music instead :D

Hi Ronan, the interviewer for the part between 11.58 and 14.00 was Mavis Nicholson, for her Thames Television programme, Afternoon Plus in 1979. Much of the other clips are from the Michael Apted DVD documentary, Inspirations.
Why? Why? Did he left us? He and others special genius (as Lennon) should be eternal Thanks God he is here inside my heard. A great human being (and a handome man, of course).
David Bowies philosohic views over his life. Some I agree with and others not. In his first interview he said he believed in an energy source. Also he loved life. He never seemed to acknowledge God.
Perhaps he didn't name his higher power as "God" to choose not to put himself in a religious box to later be scrutinized, judged or misquoted by the press.....Or perhaps it's no one's business in who or what he chooses to believe in.....which it's not anyone's concern.
"is this smoke bothering you?" " Not at all. It adds to the mysterious you were just talking about." So much empathy there. Love it.
She was a good interviewer too, very intelligent and observant and got interesting answers out of her subject. Bravo.

All the time. Most apparent in silent meditation.
I don’t know why, but taking a moment to ponder this quote, has momentarily alleviated my anxiety.
Who in the world would dare to dislike David Bowie?
6 angry trolls grumbling beside an overpass
Bowie haters of course
David Bowie’s evil clone
A philistine heathen
The dreaded Eiwob Divad
The world lost a special person when he died. I grew up with him and loved him. Hes engrained in my life. This was great to watch, thank you.
I can listen to him singing or talking all day...
Damn.... I miss this man. As I'm sure many, many do.
A musician with a mind. A philosopher so to speak.
A mystic
I wish I could have met him. I hope he’s enjoying his eternal journey through the cosmos
He is. And he's journeying AS you, as everyone and everything. Just like everyone is.
@@ladyreverie7027someone’s done their mushrooms 🍄
this man will forever live in music, he swims in it, he glides through it, slices through it like butter
I love David Bowie's 'Never play to the gallery'. So damn true and it continues to inspire me to try and push myself
i just love listening to davids voice so much, its so beautiful
Such a beautiful artist this man was.

I just watched that and that exact thought occurred to me. 💖
Best hair in music EVER.
Love the bit where you see him painting. Hope we’ll be able to see them one day.
Visualizing is a precious skill.
How could you not love this man? 😊❤️
Brilliant mind, having up and downs, but the end reaching peace, consolidating his extraordinary life with Art, music and his journey to accomplish his best...being himself.
Amazing how eloquent all these pieces are, of Bowie of course, but also the interviewers. as well. I miss that.
Being an artist is a Gift from God. So grateful to have grown up with David Bowie.
I love how shy he is
A shy Capricorn man 💖💖
Eclectic, prolific. Totally David. I just love your persona and your music. Always will!!
Thanks this is a great assortment of clips. I love this guy he is just so awesome . He will not be forgotten for a long time.
4:54 wow he answered that question really well
I always forget he was a really good painter/artiest
Unbelievable, just an amazing guy
I am ready for the 2hrs version of this please.
I don't care what anybody says I've Loved this man from the word go. And every word he says is the truth amen. Philadelphia USA
God I love him
I miss him so much
His speech on the internet and what it will become is amazing
He'll be seen the way we see Alan Watts, in a new generation. Thirty years, fifty years from now.
Great to visit on his 75th. Did smoking contribute to an early death? Perhaps, but it wouldn't matter after having such a successful life ultimately. His creativity as a life force continues to inspire me.
I wish he hadn't smoked for so long. I fear it was a big contributor to his early death.
He is still fascinating I reckon
💜thank you very much
This whole vid is fucking great but that last clip man....God I feel so seen
Thank you for this compilation! It's was very useful to me
so elegant all the time
“I wouldn’t like to” do something is very nice phraseology
Interesting to see him get interviewed by The Turtles, based on their look id say this was probably not long before or after they were touring with Frank Zappa
@Evan Wright Thank u
oh I would so love to bring a canvas or two and some paint and hang out with you David
Thanks for this!
@2:45 Is he being interviewed by the TURTLES??? Whoa!
Mark Voleman & Howard Kaylen who went on to perform with Frank Zappa. Bowie was always very intelligent & interesting. So blessed to have seen him on his reality tour it was phenomenal.
i love him so much
all i wish is that there is an afterlife so i can meet him ):

1:09 HOLY SHIT IS THAT STEPHEN FRY? TWO LEGENDS IN ONE ROOM!
Amazing. Mesmerizing... Lovely
True artist
7:40 had me rolling 🤣🤣🤣
In 1996 / 97 he looks a little bit like the " Halloween Jack " Charakter for Daimond Dogs in early 1974
Cultural Genius! We Are SO Lucky and Grateful....He Fell To Earth.🤔😉
you view yourself as a canvas
At one minute in his is Princess Diana!
His talking voice was so incredibly sexy. ❤️
great stuff
🔥 I love life very much indeed 🔥
That's so sad to hear him say that now he's actually gone.
I dont suppose anyone has any direct sources or names for the interviewers? Doing essay on Bowie and wanted to source in particular the 11:58 to 14:00
i don't know but these clips are from longer interviews i found on yt

@@garyduckworth4522 thank you very much Gary that is a massive help!
@@RonanLyleMusic All the best with your essay. There’s no better and more interesting subject to explore and experience and explore some more...
@@garyduckworth4522 thank you so much! I was searching for the name of the interviewer and the year so that I could site it in a paper!
Can I find online the full interview with the guys from the mothers of invention?
Bowie looks very like youtuber singingbanana, aka Prof Grimes from Numberphile.
Great edit
