    After not touring for 2 years, throwing a group together last minute, and having to follow Queen after one of the biggest moment in music history. This Chad of a man walked out in a suit and rocks live aid as hard if not harder than before. Bowie was in a league of his own and it’s not close. Rest in Power you beautiful soul

    Not too many performers could have followed Queen's dynamic performance, as well as Bowie. He also opened The Concert for New York City, post 9/11, with a FANTASTIC version of Pail Simon's, "America". Then ended with "Heroes". There was never a moment too big for that man. RIP DAVID!

      Her name is Tessa Niles. She was (retired now I believe but not sure) one of the more heavily sought backgournd singers in England. She sang with the likes of George Harrison, Eric Clapton (I first became aware of her on his Unplugged), Elton John, and of course, Bowie.

She also has a show that she regularly performs called Unsung Singers which is all about the British backing singers and their contribution to British music. It features Tessa, Gina Foster, Mim Grey, Keith Murrell and the MD is Mike Moran ( Co writer with Freddie Mercury on Barcelona )

David had influenced, and was very generous in giving advice on 'THE PERFORMANCE" and they emulated him:- Michael Jackson, Madonna, Billy Idol, Duran Duran etc. and EVEN QUEEN!

Think about it - the crowd was all fired up and happy by that time, and Bowie stepped in to keep the energy going. It was already good vibe, the only way you could possibly lose would be to suddenly kill the energy with a slow tearjerker or something! Excellent performances by Queen and Bowie alike!

    I just don't get why people consider stuff like this "selling out". Modern Love in particular is amazingly soulful.
    People think that just because Bowie grew his eyebrows back and stopped dying his hair red he'd some how given up on being a quality musician. Truth is, maybe he just wanted to make a fun album that could get his fans on the dance floor

      Agree. No problem. David said I am gonna make a great album that, BESIDES, may contain some HITS. he achieved that. Though, to be true, it´s not as good as Scary Monsters, his absolute peak IMHO. But Modern love, good selling or not, is a hell of a great Rock´n Roll great piece. Its a bit like MFN by Dire Straits. Commercial, hit focused? yes. Absolutely GREAT, yes, too :)

      Bowie himself referred to the '80s as his "Phil Collins years." Let's Dance was a solid-enough album, but his run of albums and tours in the years that followed were the very definition of "selling out" - I mean, do you *really* consider Tonight or Never Let Me Down to be classics in the same vein as his entire run from The Man Who Sold the World to Scary Monsters?

      people fall in love with ir initial discovery of an artist because they have nothing to compare the debut to anything else of theirs. when you hear a new band and get all🤩😍🥰😍🤩😍😍🤩🥰😍🤩 is an oxytocin feeling. I think it's why a lot of times an artist sophomore album is not recognized as great until way there in their career. Sometimes the sophomore album actually sucks though. I agree Bowie's creative artistry had merit all throughout his career in every phase. He is a type of artist where following all the different phases was a fun part of knowing him and going through the journey together. I LOVED "Let's Dance" and "China Girl" from this early 80'a era of Bowie.
