  • I must recommend Robert A. Heinlein's I Will Fear No Evil, written during a life-threatening illness, peritonitis. Published in 1970, a great science fiction futuristic (2015!) novel about a wealthy old man's brain being transplanted into the most available donor body: a beautiful young woman, his murdered secretary! Glad to be alive, he surprisingly has to come to grips with his own bisexuality, by necessity. Indeed, he becomes a more complete, tolerant human being in this incredible adventure.

  • Ok, I'll dance with you.

  • Never! And I mean NEVER put advertisements before Bowie!

  • Mick Ronson is the most under-rated guitar god of all time he is a trash icon R.I.P.

  • mick ronson at the end of this song is just amazing the feedback control is just awesome

  • Aww his boyfriend got all jealous

  • @pandorlla Yeah, that says it all.

  • So you gotta ask. Just who was John?

  • @MrMajorTime Somewhere it said it was a response to a John Lennon comment not sure though! David Bowie was just being obviously Bisexual at that time for the public suggesting a jealous John person

  • @Groblinfull Thanks for that potential answer. VERY interesting song; is almost an apology by a man to a man for being attacted to a woman! I know that everyone is a little bisexual. Ironically, the necessity for someone to ask forgiveness of being attracted to anyone of either sex, is as much a stigma for straight or gay person alike.

    And the truth is that everyone is also a little jealous of wandering attentions. We are all constantly fighting temptations whilst wanting to remain true to one.

  • @MrMajorTime Great observations, Major. Lacan again, all dressed.

  • @TheJonathanzzz Thanks for listening in.

  • Wow that poste twice! That must have been one for me and one for you.

  • Don't get me wrong! Bowie brought the honesty of being turned on to the world. It had little to do with sex, or androgyny. It was about being alive, and suggesting that we are all bisexual in configuration. What man doesn't admire another man's attractiveness just as he admires another woman's attractiveness. There are elements of male and female in all humans. If not, we couldn't survive as an empathetic species. We like to see fascinating people of both sexes. What the hell is wrong with that?

  • johnow it's 2011 perhaps dancing said the Communion aliens

    on your tongue

    /watch?v=CGQo6zpVzt8

  • This song is reply to John Lennon. He made comments, that Davis is a cross-dresser, so David made this song.

  • @SuperJasutein cool

  • Rest in peace  ANN MILLER

  • i love it in my communication class, we where talking about how marriages fail. One women said that modern music was full of lyrics that talked about sex, and i told her look at older music its just not as out in the open as newer music

  • i wonder how no one have noticed that this version is actually a 1/2 tone lower than the actual song lol :D

  • @iPwNooBs28 .. Lol. I didn

    t at first. Once you mentioned it it does look pretty obvious... Im sure a lot of people heard it but just cant be arsed to type... :-).. In any case you have a pretty good ear I guess... Good for you!!!

  • always loved him and i was born in the 90s, he will always be my fantasy :D

  • I'm straight, but if I was gay, lived in the seventies and God actually existed and made me choose one man, between the population of our little planet, to fuck, that choice would be easy as hell...: DAVID (FUCKIN ZIGGY STARDUST) BOWIE!

    (and for the teenagers nowdays which feel desperate to find something worth to be listened just wait and don't slit your wrists yet: I'm gonna be the new God, the hero of our time ;) )

  • Im only dancing!

  • This man is absolutely awesome!!! \\õ//

  • who DOESNT want to fuck bowie

  • @wonderbreaddisplay you're gay :D

  • @ferdinandsouz uh

    7 likes

  • @wonderbreaddisplay Hm, guilty. This man's the responsable for my recently acquired bisexuality.

  • @patoelbuenoss I want to fuck David Bowie a hair more than I want to fuck Tim Currie - and that says a LOT.

  • Touch meeeeeee! David feeling his androgyny! Look how short this song is. It kicks out in less than 3 minutes! But what an impact! A young man, playing the field, with a supposedly steady Daddy. Telling the score of wanting to get out and get laid by girls once in a while. Man, what a trip! You know how ballsy this was back in the day? But no one ever said this song was wrong or too gay. Was just too good! A man put this out there at a time when his career was not so secure as his vision. Bravo!

  • Jesus Christ bless Brother David Bowie and his family and his deceased brother...

  • And this music video was made with a budget of just US$200. What a genious!

  • Bowie being a weirdass writer again. The song starts old rocknroll with the beat and a major melody, then gets seriously weird in the chorus. A record exec today wouldnt release this. Bowie looks like Helen Reddy.

  • mick rock and bowie is great.....

  • Favourite Bowie Song.

  • David, I'm only typing.

  • ~sigh..... David Bowie is Awesome

    Love this song

  • My name is John. We met back in the day. I remember a day when things were so. And it was a request for forgiveness I accepted then as now.

  • Bowie turns me on! ;)

  • This song is about being a cool hot glam rocker, so you fake being gay and walk around with your fake "boyfriend" who believes you to be the real deal. But you're really ogling girls all the time so naturally "John" gets jealous.

  • Love him, but that mullet will never sit right with me.

  • At 2.38 dave blows a little bubble out of the side of his mouth!

  • Bowie was talking to me when he sang this.

  • @MrMajorTime ...yeah right,.in ur dream's

  • @zarty999777 Yeah. In my dreams. What are dreams but shadows of things that are real.

  • bowie, i'll dance with you any day :)

  • wow, that's some fucking awesome shit!!!!

  • THE ABSOLUTE FUCKING MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE!!!...

  • @petermurphreak -I thought that would be Peter Murphy in your opinion? ;D

  • @Fan666Maiden... I WORSHIP both GODS!!!...

  • sexy

  • David Bowie's music speaks for itself..... wonderful! Unusual, fascinating, other worldly.

  • @heidirlipes If his music speaks for itself, why the hell don't you shut up?

    (Sorry, I couldn't resist being a smart-ass!)

  • @heidirlipes You know I was just kidding, right? Your comment was just fine. Go ahead. Take a swing at me! I got it coming.

  • i meant live :P

    

  • unfortunately i wasnt born in this era , so i have never seen this amazing man alive , i pray that one day he will do one more tour , just so i can see him , i wish more people my age noticed music like this instead of worthless crap like whoever miley Cyrus and justin beiber are , it isnt real music , this is!

  • @msbowiedepp i wish there were more people like you in this world

  • @9eyeball9 cheers :D x

  • @msbowiedepp I liked your comment, but you don't have to say bad things about Cyrus or Bieber (I don't like them either). You see, were're so much better, we don't even have to say they are crap, people already know that.

    and one more thing: BOWIE IS THE MAN! (go on tour again, please. If you do I can die happily)

    And sorry for my English, it's not my native language (Ifthere are any mistakes, please, tell me ;)

  • @nandacw19bueno lol your english is fine ;) , and i agree he should totally do another tour :) xx

  • @nandacw19bueno Your english is excellent actually. Better than most people on here for sure.

  • @msbowiedepp keep hoping and you never know. There's alot of young people like you and I really hope you get to see his magic one day

  • @leonoel42 thank you , means a lot :)

  • Comment removed

  • @ChameleonLost88 ok hold on a minute , first of all there was absolutely no need for that , second of all , i just used jb as an example , dont get your knickers in a knot , i am entitled to my own oppion , dont be hatten'

  • @msbowiedepp I agree on that I went a little to far with what I said. Anyway, have fun obsessing over that little kid. I swear people like you talk about him more than his hardcore fans do...

  • @ChameleonLost88 thank you , and yes i will enjoy it , i love him very much , i think most people who watch this video do

  • @msbowiedepp I know, David is the best!!!

  • @ChameleonLost88 Yes he really is :D i just wish more people my age knew who he was or listened to him , but people are entitled to their own opinion so i shall leave them to it :)

  • @msbowiedepp Well if you like him so much you should put part of his name in part of your youtube handle... Oh wait... umm... nvm... ;)

  • @ChameleonLost88 hahahaha ;D i like you , your a cool person :P

  • @msbowiedepp Well, that's because: "The Halloween Jack is a real cool cat and he lives on top of Manhattan Chase. The elevator's broke, so he slides down a rope onto the street below, oh Tarzie, go man go. Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach her face is sans feature, but she wears a Dali brooch. Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake. Wrecked up and paralyzed, Diamond Dogs are sableized." I just mean have a very merry Halloween!

  • @ChameleonLost88 :D and a very merry one to you too :D , stupid question but are you dressing up??

  • @msbowiedepp Actually yes, are you also? I'm dressing up, ironically, as Justin Beiber.

  • @ChameleonLost88 hahaha i hate justin beiber :P , i dressed up as a rag doll :D

  • Is he not The Face On Mars at 2:46?

  • am i the only one who thinks the dancers are a bit creepy?

  • Spit bubble between his teeth at 2:37

  • I HATE VEVO!

  • oh my god are there really arguments on the bowie video's. the world is insane

  • to the people who think they know everything about Bowie:

    He is a mystery. Knowing random trivia facts about him is not knowing him.

  • can you say s%*t quality audio?

  • sexy fucking song

  • THE BEST

  • TOUCH-A TOUCH-A TOUCH-A TOUCH ME

  • mick is so sexyy i wanna touch him and his guitar

    david bowie turns me on :)

  • mick is so sexyy i wanna touch him and his guitar

  • I'll dance with you!!!

  • I'll dance with you David!

  • What did they do? The music is too slow and half a step lower than it should be... A problem with the sample rate perhaps?

  • ilovelamp000 -what is your problem. You be what you want - it would never bother me. An over reaction methinks !! Now chill and just enjoy the music.

  • This was Bowie announcing he was bi-sexual.

  • @andcar121 And this is me announcing... FUCK YEAH! Bowie is the reason I tell people Im bi, and Im fucking proud of being bi! So Im a girl. So what if I like girls AND boys? Bowie agrees:3

  • @ilovelamp0000 Same here! :3

  • @ilovelamp0000 That's great that you're proud of your own sexuality, but Bowie doesn't 'agree' as such. He renounced his own bisexuality in the eighties, and said he regretted ever coming out with all the gay/bi stuff back in the days of Ziggy. Bowie is predominantly a straight man and later explained that he claimed to be bi back then mostly for the shock-value.

  • @LantaGem I'm well aware. Im saying that Bowie isn't against people like me, unlike many other people. Now, if you're trying to act like a Bowie professional, I suggest you don't try to outsmart me with Bowie knowledge. I know everything there is to know about Bowie. I own all of his albums. I have a Bowie haircut. I have done reports on Bowie in school. I am 13 years old and I know more about Bowie than anyone besides Bowie himself. So go tell someone else about Bowie. I already know it all.

  • Comment removed

  • @ilovelamp0000 Thirteen huh? Maybe when you grow up a bit you'll realise that very few people "know everything there is to know" about ANY subject - let alone someone as complex as Bowie. Then again, I find it kind of amusing to be lectured on being a know-all by a child.

    It might be oh-so-cool for kids your age to declare they are 'bi' right now (NOT that there's anything wrong with people who really ARE gay or bi) - only to regret their action/words later in life.

  • @LantaGem Whateva' :)

  • @ilovelamp0000 I know how old he was when he lost his virginity....

    and that there may have been sexual abuse in his earlier years from a particular well know pedophile....

    plz do not say u kno errythang cuz u do not!!!11 :U

  • @ilovelamp0000 You cannot possibly know 'everything' about Bowie. For example, do you know his blood type? His star sign? His dreams? No. Please, do not lecture people on Bowie, you just ruin it for other people :'(

  • OH I DO LOVE THIS SONG.

    *turns off capslock*

    Sorry, this song deserves it. You can't listen to it and not dance. If you do, you don't have a heart.

  • "& the Beat goes on, is there something wrong between you & John?" 

  • 2:32 - All hail Trevor Bolder!

  • it'd take lady gaga three lifetimes what it took bowie to accomplish on a year

  • when people looked in bowie's eyes and scored...

  • when people looked in bowie's eyes and scored!

  • this was the future in 1972..look what happened!

  • He's stoned

  • Mick Ronson..thee most under-rated guitarist of all time, RIP!

  • I'll dance with you.

  • Damn mormons...

  • I am building a time machine. im going back who want s to come

  • @TheHappyjack1 I do.

    

  • @miseryinanutshell This cost £100 to make. How much would half light and a small cheek transfer cost these days? Much Love, Zil

  • @TheHappyjack1 You'd get there, realise your IPhone has no 3g connectivity back then, and cry to go home.

  • @TenWhoWereTaken I don't even have a Iphone troll.

  • holy shit bowie is sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from mars.........Is there life on Mars?? Yes, and it brought us music like this........AWESOME!

  • @badoocee

    indeed ziggy was a god!!!!!!

  • @badoocee yeah, but apparently it also brought us Charlie Sheen lol

  • Funny...I wonder haha

  • Great song! I absolutely love the atmosphere of this video ! David Bowie looks wonderful; I think this is the best look for him (the Ziggy look but with eyebrows).

  • ziggy is one sexy mother fucker!!!!!

  • Every time I listen to this song I laugh imagining his "friend" John getting jealous 'cos he's dancing with a gal lol I love my confused David Bowie

  • What the fuck up is with the mormons?

  • @walruspower60 Where the hell did that come from?

  • @loqutor The ad at the beginning of the video. The Mormon ad.

  • @walruspower60 Oh, poor babbeh. Do their bewiefs offend you? They need to be more considewate of your feewings and stop having opinions diffewent fwom yours.

  • what the fuck is VEVO?

  • other great glam rock artists harley....grame grace......sparks....yeah

  • @gramegrace touch me! We passed upon the stairs...

  • greaaattttt sooooonnnnngggggggggg!!!!!!

  • OH MY GOD I hate Vevo. Can't watch the fuckin video. OK! Know what? I'll see it in any other fan channel --'

  • John, I'm masturbating...

  • @aledobretociastko Isn't this the way I was? I was only dancing. Life's a well thumbed machine. Then I met him. The world turned upside down. Touch me. Ziljd1an

  • Comment removed

  • magnificent!!!

  • This song makes me wanna dance

  • Bowie looks hot in this video

  • He turns me on! love this and ooohhh brings back the time. .dancing bodies everywhere, orgy style

  • if i were to meet david bowie or anything like that he would probably have to file a restraining order against me for many reasons

  • Bowie with The Spiders! It doesn't get any tighter than this! Ronson's raw steel, the glam rock image, hasn't dated at all. Looks so much more vital than any of today's boring bullshit. This song, at this time, was a brave statement about bisexuality and relationships. Hell, Bowie was young, smart, talented and looking great! The whole band played like dynamite and Bowie's vocals and The Spider's sound competed to be the best. And we are the winners! Why can't we see more balls like this today!?

  • david bowie is fucking hot and too damn talented! <3

  • Check out Mick Ronson !! Just a great guitarist , and singer too..Try to find his solo stuff. If you like Bowie.

  • Happy Birthday Sir!

  • This is the kind of song you hear the first time and just walk by.

    But then you come back and say "hey, there's something about it..."

  • :)

  • One of His Many Best!!

  • Okay, I must say this. I'm 13 years old, and David Bowie is the sexiest man alive. I love this song, and the video especially...when I'm older, I'm going to get a tattoo of an anchor on my cheekbone, like the one he has in this video:) People who don't listen to his music have yet to discover what classic *good* music is. I hope they come to their senses someday. And @HippieJimi, I don't either, man. I don't either.

  • @IllBeYourDetonator, Idiot, nobody cares how old you are. Love, your peer.

  • i'm 5000 years old.

    BUT I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

  • the duke

    

  • They never play Bowie on the radio anymore....even classic rock stations play to 40 garbage!

  • I don't trust people,who don't listen to David Bowie...

  • @HippieJimi me neither!!!!!!

  • @HippieJimi Who should?

  • @HippieJimi

    my freind had a husband who didnt like bowie,a year later they split.....

  • I hate at this moment that I'm watching a video with the sexiest man to ever walk the earth yet Youtube is promoting Justin Beiber by putting his face in the background. WHY?

  • I really like this song... "I saw you watching from the stairs/You're everyone who ever cared". I kind of think of the protaganist of it as being someone who wants to be loved and payed attention to and so they make their boyfriend jealous. Hence "Won't somebody dance with me?" Then again, I could be talking crap

  • I'm 12, but I love his song

  • TOUCH ME!!!!

  • @linorf  where??? lol

  • hdkblhbjhabcf

    I LOVE IT. <333

  • Dave is crazy and amazing shit. I am an addict and only wish I could have been in my teens instead of 1-8 for his best.

  • @Bobbo714 But then Bobbo, if you where in your teens you would now be 50 something instead of 40 something. Give yourself a hug.

  • omg im sry evry time i go on youtube its already logged on and my friend came over whos ALSO a bowie fan and shes not smart at times but ya... he was a addict. i totally blieve it. so sry! brittany posted that. (my friend)

  • gawd, every time he says "touch me!" my heart ju
