Hey Amy! You probably won't believe this, but my impetus to learn this song was watching your version, which I thought was super great. Hand on the Bible. So double thanks!!
have always been a Bowie's fan, and all i can say is that you ve made a brilliant cover there. hope it won't take you... Five Years to to cover another DB's song . your deutchland t-shirt could be a referance to his berlin years. keepp up the good work Jimmy and let me know if u ever want any kind of help at the making of a video
Thanks so much my good friend!! Hopefully I'll get around to another Bowie cover soon! I hope we do get the chance to collaborate on something down the line. I'll let you know if I ever have something special. ~ Jimmy
that's a good thing, just keep playing ~ i see you subscribed to Dale's channel (tonedr), now he's a PHENOMENAL guitarist, and he occassionally posts tutorial vids, he's got one up right now on the America song Tin Man I believe. Also dude, check out "fretkiller" he's great on guitar and you can see every finger in his vids. Take care man, thanks for stopping in.
You've become a one-man band with these recent showcases that are clearly produced and delivered with great care and attention to detail. Your vocals are right on the mark and in the perfect register...powerful and very clear. Your flawlessly-rendered instrumentation was,as always,very well-executed. The visuals rounded out a high-end production that not only entertains,but also inspires. Many thanks for sharing.
Dear Max, what can I say? You are one of the nicest guys on YT, and I appreciate you always knowing just exactly what to say to make me feel like a million bucks! I'm glad you liked my version of this Bowie song, and delighted by your observation of the smaller recording/production details that might sometimes be overlooked by a more casual viewer.
blu65! They were ziggy and the "spiders from mars" - diamond dogs came out in the later seventies, this was early seventies Bowie, I believe. Anyway, thanks so much my friend!!
Jimmy, you've done it again. Picked my favorite from an album, even though it isn't the best known. I'll never forget the first time I heard this. The lyrics hit me so hard. Especially the repeat lines. A great song and you did it with real flare, my friend. I think Bowie would love the vid too. A definite 10/10 performance.
Thanks Mattie, my take is a bit more raw I think. Part of that comes from the fact that I'm no kind of drummer at all, as my performance on this tune fully demonstrates. I was using a small Yamaha 7 pad drum kit (more toy than instrument), and just flailing mostly out of control trying to keep a steady beat.
Hi Roy, I appreciate you being so nice. I know you're a big country music fan, and it's nice to know you'll watch and listen and comment on rock songs that I cover. Thanks my friend. ~Jim
Hi Tom, when people think of the Ziggy Stardust album, this is probably not the first song that comes to mind, but it's definitely a classic. Thanks for taking the time to watch, and for posting such a great review.
Hello Sarah, thanks for the very positive comment. My most recent vids were more sedate love songs, so I recorded something a little edgier this go around. Thanks again!!
Loved it- one of my favs ! Check out my version if ya have a min cheers
