      Fun fact! The band Bauhaus was on the set of the 83 film the Hunger and where performing as part of a scene, bowie, one of the stars, was also on set, and walked in on them practicing by playing Ziggy stardust. Bowie was so impressed he called his lawyer to hand them the rights to cover this song on the spot!
      Also, If you haven't seen the hunger, that movie is fucked up. Highly recommend if a erotic horror movie staring david bowie as a vampire is smth your interested in.

This is a horrid thing to have to listen to, if one has ears that is. Edit … This is a cheap effort to capture the essence of the original which was done, live, a decade before. Listen to the Bowie live performance if think this is acceptable. The phrasing, everything … even the breathing is copied. Maybe you’re not aware of this and am giving you the benefit of the doubt

    Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly,
    And the spiders from Mars. He played it left hand
    But made it too far
    Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band
    Now Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
    Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
    He could leave 'em to hang
    'Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan.
    So where were the spiders, while the fly tried to break our balls
    With just the beer light to guide us,
    So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands?
    Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo
    The kid was just crass, he was the nazz
    With God given ass
    He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar
    Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind
    Like a leper messiah
    When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.

    A cover of a Bowie song, about a character partially inspired by Iggy Pop (as well as Lou Reed), done by a band whose vocalist sounds heavily influenced by Iggy Pop. Makes perfect sense and closes a circle.

    • @dixonpinfold2582
      @dixonpinfold2582 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Bowie was known for his extremely considerate manners. He was always far too polite to _ever_ snub a sincere tribute.
      So I'd imagine that when he said that, inside he was thinking more like: "I wish this is how it had been mixed and mastered, mate. There, I said something nice! 'Never don't be nice when you're being quoted for all bloody eternity'-that's what me mum taught me!" (Yes, Bowie's thoughts frequently had exclamation points.)

      Very 1st time I heard it just thought it was a live version. I had heard of Bauhaus but was more familiar with Love and Rockets at the time. The did a fine job with Ball Of Confusion. Without cheating think was a Temptations song released before I was born in 1969.

      Bauhaus proves: in Rock & Roll absolutely anything is possible. Even the impossible: their cover for "Ziggy Stardust" is way BETTER than the original. Stronger. Intense. Passionate. And the funniest thing is: Peter Murphy can be a better David Bowie "rock persona" than HIMSELF. The Vampire Sucked His Blood Until The Last Drop. INCREDIBLE!
