His fans may or may not have influenced his style but he's deff influenced by something at this time.
scary Davy.
Something white, yes....
The cane?
I love the question: can you picture yourself at 60? At 60 Bowie was one of the coolest people on the planet. And so successful, happy, clean-living and stable. RIP
Was thinking the same.
He didn't let him answer that properly. I would have loved to hear the answer.
I know he took substances during this time but David always seemed to be nervous and self conscious during interviews. Complex and fascinating, he was one of the most original and creative talents of the twentieth century.
Bewlay brother
Lol. He looks like Joker from comic books in this phase.
HE WOULD MAKE A GREAT JOKER
@@coldramentpm1013 that is gonna be a bit... difficult to say the least
He should have played Joker in the first Batman movie in 1989.
How about another joke… murrrrrayy?
Spot on
Dick Cavett was such a laid back host
He was the best. Love watching his old shows.
The number one
I think Dick was one of the few interviewers that Marlon Brando liked, and Brando was an insufferable human being from what I've seen.
His body language was going at light speed
Cocaine.
That s what gram od cocaine will do to you 🤯
Dick Cavett is the best! Love his interviews.
I like him too.
He seems very codependent with his cane. Perhaps he’s “co-cane”?
HAR!! HAR!!!... ( still, I could never come up with quickies like that
That's Perfect! :)
Might be the greatest pun I’ve ever heard
Daniel Walker true!!! He’s all coked out!!! Too funny
Nice one
it was very sad to see him describe his relationship with his mother, he snapped right out of his high and straight into sorrow
its probably why he could do so many drugs.... artist like him are being driven by a very heavy vibe. their brains are on tilt and skating right ontop of chaos ice. its their norm.... drugs just marginally turn that off. bowie was high strung, very smart but also riddled. but he was also tough. his resurrection in berlin was an amazing survival story. he was as close to death as a rock star gets before he left LA. once he found equilibrium he was able to navigate quite a few more amazing chapters. as important to the 70s as dylan was to the 60s.
The man who fell to earth. This was his major cocaine period, thus the skeletal frame and OCD quirks.
He had kidney disease ...
You mean the cocaine quirks
1:48 "woo!" he's like telling the audience to calm down lol
Bowie was a true legend, I commend his humbleness and honesty..
David Bowie: Pure genius
He reminds me of a man that wants to live a quiet life
The only playlist I have on spotify that is dedicated to a single artist is Bowie.
It is sad that he is no longer with us because he contributed so much to the world with his art yet it's comforting to know as that he lived an adventurous life. Of the unknown. He illustrated so many versions of himself which encouraged and still encourages artists and everyone in general to discover more of themselves. There is more to us all, each and every one of us. What also resonated from this interview was that he shared how he wasn't academically engaged but more so an creative. He had tried the educational route briefly but came into his own heuristic journey. Those aspects spoke to me and perhaps to almost everyone based on how they see themselves as for what they want to contribute to the world. It hits different when people who made an impact like David are no longer here. .. the retrospect shows greatly from this interview.
David creating ASMR with that cane.
Bowie was just skin and bones!
Drugs an poor eating bk then sadly .
@@Davido50 I think this is around the time he started acting as the 'thin white duke'' persona, so he purposely lost weight. I may be wrong though.
@@user-hp8hg2ix1b sound correct. thanks!
Don't you know
Yeah, drugs will do that to you
Reminds me of Spuds interview in Trainspotting
Co26 Sailing you nailed it.
1:31 the drip is hitting him at this very moment
he settles in a lot after the crowd reacts positively to his quote about fans. Like a lot of his counterparts and fellow popular artists, he's uncomfortable being the center of attention. But he also knows how to use that attention to empower the fans. that's cool.
Kids don't know what they are missing. When your musical heroes did interviews high out of their minds.
David Bowie was not the joker because he was not evil. He was a kind and sensitive highly creative visual and musical artist. And could wear a suit and a pair of clothing like nobody’s business! Sharp as a knife 👔🎩🕶👑
Most of his "personas" were as you said save the Thin White Duke, he was pure evil.
he went thru a period where he was dancing w/ the man who sold the world.... to his credit and strength he really got himself together for quite a fruitful career.
Seriously, was there ever a better dressed man?
he was really on another planet at this time. The film, "The Man Who Fell to Earth" didn't do him justice. He climbed out of this, but on another level his best music came out of this period and before.
And after, with Heroes and Scary Monsters album
Never has such a great divide between two entertainers been witnessed. In terms of talent, intellect or fashion ;+}
It’s amazing how obviously under the influence so many of these guests were back in those days. You see it now and again these days, but nothing like this. It isn’t even just the musicians, although they probably are the most frequently under the influence. They had it nice back in those hippie days. Free love and drugs in the latter 60’s, and then all of a sudden bam “that didn’t work, let’s sell out so we have plenty of good coke for the discos”. If you didn’t get into dope or other hard drugs and OD by the 80’s, you were getting old and partied out and just took your Valium, pain pills, SSRI’s, etc to get through the day while telling all the young people not to do drugs. I’ve seen so many hippies that totally reversed into yuppie corporatists and helped run our country into the ground. Carlin has a point when it came to the narcissistic baby boomers.
Facts.
Not being a little jelly there, are you?
MaskedMarvyl probably a little? Doesn’t hurt my point though
This is an excellent comment. It is insightful and concise. The lesson I take is that most results in your life are the culmination of whatever you have done up to today. If you spend your young adult years dedicating your efforts to something that produces nothing long term-even if it’s in the name of love and happiness-later in life you’re more likely to become resentful, jealous, demanding and yes, maybe narcissistic and angry. Edit: PS David Bowie is pretty much my all time favorite musician and Dick Cavett is the world’s best interviewer so that’s why I watched this...Cavett should have asked about life on mars.
FloydofOz thanks for the compliment. I also love Bowie and as a drummer his final album had me nerding out on the incredible performance throughout. ‘Tis a pity it was a bore.... nah, I actually loved the album as a work of art as well, but that’s what I would have said if I didn’t. I wish you the best and stay safe, my friend.
He didnt get along with his mother but later reconciled.
1:30 that bittersweet leftover ...
Dick cavett is a complete master. You had to be way out to throw him off like the fall casevettes interview. He never got thrown by odd or difficult for the most part
"What do your parents do for a living?" such a nice, casual question to ask, you wouldn't ever here in 2021.
“It’s not the side effects of the cocaine”
God this gives me anxiety
Didn’t expect his talking voice to sound like this
He would have been such an amazing Joker.
@Waxel Punkt. Foh
Definitely has the right smile and look for it, but at the same time I think it would have been pretty disturbing to see David Bowie as the joker.
Or Elrond, from the Lord of The Rings. He wanted to do it but it ended up not going through..
"Ground Control to Major Joker"...
Hmm, just doesn't have the same ring to it.....
@Waxel Punkt. Joker's had many characterizations over the years.
Paul McCartney is still rocking at 80
So sad his father already gone and he's not close to his mother. I feel sorry for him really.
I think they became a lot closer as Bowie got older. David was always much closer to his dad. He was devastated when he died.
Why do all the geniuses come from dysfunctional backgrounds?
David was a genus
He was a genius,too.
He was like a little kid.
He certainly aged well
Dick Cavett would eat his words if he ever saw Tina Turner in her final concerts where she was nearly 70 years old looking and sounding as good as she always did.
A reunion of the Beatles in their 70s, that'd be great :)
How would it be different than the shambling corpse of the Rolling Stones? "To every thing there is a season..."
@@mfeltes A fair point.
"Nutmeg Under Their Cuticles" is the name of my Spiders From Mars cover band.
melhor entrevistador que já vi na vida!
Ok he was taking heroin at the time but for god sake he still looks amazing. Like no- one else. He was a bloody genius.
Cocaine you mean
Magical!!
You look at the fan art and think, “Yes, the fans definitely have some interesting lives.”
Truly an icon and artistically unique.
I wonder how Bowie feels about Marilyn Manson ripping off his personality.
If you wanna hang out you've got to take her out...
If you wanna get down, down on the ground...
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie...
If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues...
When your day is done and you wanna run...
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie...
If your day is gone and you wanna ride on...
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back...
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie...
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie...
The kilo of cocaine in David's bloodstream was showing off to the other cocaine afterwards. "I was snorted by David Bowie! Gonna tell this story to me grandkids, I am."
Annie Lennox has that deep smoking voice.
It's the coke. His voice isn't that raspy after he got clean in '77, or when he detoxed during the next tour in '76.
Waxel Punkt. Oof. That’s harsh.
Waxel Punkt. I was watching that performance not long ago, it was at the end of under pressure lol.
Just because there's a skinny man with a big smile doesn't mean he would be a great joker. He's David Bowie, he had his own original character and was the Goblin King. Pick something new.
Cocaine is a helluva drug
Not wrong there man
Turbo Lazer the most boring, predictable comment ever, try and be original for once.
Challleemurffeeee
crapitoutjim thanks Fun Police for all your help
@@crapitoutjim but i got plenty likes tho
The only person I've ever truly loved.....apart from my son, is David.💙💜❤🧡💚💙💜❤🧡💚
In those days everyone in show business was completely out of their minds, and there was NO attempt to hide it.
To hear them talk about the Beatles at 80 needing help with their instruments haha!! Ringo and Paul still going strong. David thinking about himself at 60 was also funny to hear.
Hey!.....Agree, Cavett was a real asshole.....
The Thin White Duke.
character in his prime.
Creepy weird. He's like the proto-Max Headroom here! Loved the early music, though.
LOL look how many times he touches his cane
high on blow, the good shit.
It wasn't good for him. This was a really dark and turbulent time in his life. His ex-wife Angie talks about it.
Very fidgety, 'cos he's as high as Major Tom.
You can be fidgety and not be on something. It's possible. Not saying he wasn't a drug-taking person, just that as a fellow fidgeter, I understand his mannerisms.
If you know Bowie's history, his cocaine addiction was stratospheric around the mid 70s. David said once of the time his cocaine habit was at its most severe 'I went to blow my nose one day and half my brains came out, that scared me'
@@danw1374
This during the Thin White Duke phase of his career.
that 'good idea' bout Ny cracked me up. good talk, to the end it became super
Why does Dick look like an 80s mafia kingpin long before that look even existed?
David Robert Jones (Londres, 8 de enero de 1947-Nueva York, 10 de enero de 2016), más conocido por su nombre artístico David Bowie, fue un cantautor, actor, multiinstrumentista y diseñador británico. Figura importante de la música popular durante casi cinco décadas, Bowie es considerado un innovador, en particular por sus trabajos de la década de 1970 y por su peculiar voz, además de la profundidad intelectual de su obra.
If he had green hair and a purple suit he'd be the Joker.
one year and one day before I was born.
Was that cain David was messing about with a Co-cain? Man he was wonderful x
he is completely high !
If anyone would have said Bowie would be as cool as 60, as he was then... no one would have believed him.
People could dream about Beatles reunion still... well i still do, but I am one of those who dont need LSD to fly, you know what I mean 🤣🤣🤣
Other than him playing with his cane (no pun intended lmao) but I really couldn’t tell he was high, just seemed really nervous.
Bowie seems like he was "sweet" guy!
high david!
The cane thing is a nervous tick
He changed images like if....he was crazy
David was is one beautiful man in this video :-)
very weird to see them young talking, "imagine when your 60", or "imagine the beatles reunite at 80" just strange when ive only been there at the end and seen them as "the classics"
03:29 flying saucers mentioned!
Are you the Gary McK that was nearly (and thankfully not) extradited to the US?
@@justsayin1752 Unfortunately for my family, yes :/ If you have a look at my channel you'll see it's my original content. Thanks for being thankful-not ;+}
Really funny to me that Cavett mentions the idea of The Beatles playing in their 70s as preposterous. And yet, Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones are still doing concerts in their 70s!!! The amazing thing to me is that people still go to see them!! What ever happened to the line from the Who, "hope I die before I get old"?
Nothing happened to that line. Pete Townsand wrote that line and it means whatever it to means to you. Doesn't seem anything to do with the Stones or Paul, who clearly don't wanna die and keep rocking.
I miss him
DICK CAVETT
19 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 1936
85 AÑOS (86)
ESCORPION
I think that’s really Marcia Wallace from the Bob Newhart show.
Jeez. Bowie would've made a great Joker.
What a frightening look he had then, almost like a wax model come to life.
When someone’s stop for three years ago maybe it’s time to shift a beat
This guy look like joker. This seems like joker scene with de niro
Yeah. Everybody weird is now the Joker. Pillock.
So let him be jokay, right. Just let him be jokey.
@@whittlepixels5633 To be fair, he influenced quite a few versions of The Joker and was apparently considered for the role in 1989, so it's not a ridiculous idea.
@@andytrevino4077 which versions?
@@whittlepixels5633 The Dark Knight Returns Joker is the biggest instance; The Joker's design in Batman R.I.P. is supposedly based off of the "Thin White Duke" persona, and apparently so was Leto's.
“Return the plaque
Theres something in my Noooooose ..... i mean the Aiiiiirr
College is high school in UK
Sounds like David Brent
Cavett was kind of condescending in some of his questions / comments to Bowie.Bowie was a class act even as a young man.
My God, could he be any skinnier??
I can tell David Bowie was someone who did Not like talking about himself....
MaskedMarvyl And the audience cheered when he took his coat off, fine specimen of a man? I think not
Anybody remember him in that magician movie with Hugh Jackman lol That was a great movie, that and that Christian Bale magician movie also
Yes. He playedtje role Nikola Tesla i believe .
Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale were in the same magician film call The Prestige, directed by Christopher Nolan. David Bowey played Nikola Tesla.
Omg he so cool
He's soooo obv coked up! 😂
interesting if true.
He was probably high 😂 omg but he is cool you know
He turned to buddhism and learned a lot about the human condition in the 90s I believe, sorted his addictions out
Bowie was a helluva drug.
he was shy and strange in the begining
