I remember during the super bowl, seeing this in that commercial while I was at work. I just remember stopping what I was doing and breaking down in tears because while the commercial was probably already done, it was such a beautiful tribute to David Bowie, RIP to one of rock and rolls true icons
Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low I leaned back on my radio Some cat was layin' down some get it on rock 'n' roll, he said Then the loud sound did seem to fade Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase haze That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie I had to phone someone so I picked on you Hey, that's far out so you heard him too Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two Look out your window I can see his light If we can sparkle he may land tonight Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie
There's a starman soaring trough the sky He's pleased he came and met us And he did blew all our minds There's a starman soaring trough the sky He taught us not to blow it And that it is all worthwile He told us to let the children lose it, let the children use it, let all the children boogie.
+Alex Hadri you mean our ancestors will be listening to this inside a spaceship, on a jolly hippie cruise through the stars? cuz that would just be epic.
At The Britannia in Margate Kent last weekend, a guy picked this for the karaoke and everybody in the bar sang it with him. God bless him David he might be gone but he's not and never will be forgotten, by our generation at least.
Everytime I listen to this song I remember my father 3 days before he died he said" son,I'll be looking after you up there" I was like 6 or 7 years old at the time.
Playlists are pointless now. Unless you're gonna sit right in front of your computer to keep hitting "Skip Ad"! You cant even cue it up and go about your business like before. TH-cam: love it and hate it equally!
We get so burnt on what they give us post 1995 regarding popular music. Even with Death Metal folks agree that was about the beginning of the end. Guess I should be thankful I saw something...🎉
Letitbedone... when I die the Local Band plays this and my mates at the Merivoimat carry me to the hole... Who gets to be at the the flag :P Who wouldn't be amazed to be Bowie 4 a day.
Fantastic .... Happy Christmas .... I think my youtube Bowie Interpretations might be improving .... less fruit last night and someone clapped ... very slowly, but I'll take it.
This song and its performance on uk TOTP is what broke Bowie in the uk.. when he put his arm around Mick Ronson the population was split between outrage and admiration... but EVERYONE who seen it paid attention... the rest is history... in case your wondering Starman wasn’t a hit first time round here in the uk
You're now eternal, Bowie. Thanks for all your incredible en genuine music. So long, Ziggy. Rest in Peace.
+aleenly R.I.P. Bowie, Lemmy and Natalie, Together!
Not fade away. We rest on the shoulders of giants. May they rest in peace. Devotion is the Golden Road. Dharma.
Om Shanti Om.

I'm sure Bowie would have loved being featured in The Superbowl ofc.

Ismael Moncada this made me cry.
Over 50 % of these lines have an incorrect
I AM AN IDIOT
in 2966 this album will still rock in a different way but rock
+Alex Hadri you mean our ancestors will be listening to this inside a spaceship, on a jolly hippie cruise through the stars? cuz that would just be epic.
the world wont be here in nearly a thousand years :/
not rock
Perhaps rock in the same way
In 2966, it may be regarded as classical music, as Mozart is today. Perhaps teenagers will suffer through it in school assembly.

I’m part of the new generation and I speak for some of us saying we won’t be soon to forget it either!
Mike Ronson's guitar sound/arrangements....blowing your minds!!
Everytime I listen to this song I remember my father 3 days before he died he said" son,I'll be looking after you up there" I was like 6 or 7 years old at the time.
