David Bowie - Thursdays child

[RiverMorgan]

Awesome vid be an even greater artist. I would really love to see a computer wiz edit this vid and have the Goblin King staring back at him through the mirror. That would be epic :)

[Nikele1967]

Can't edit??? bummer. I wasn't finished and hit post accidentally. I know how to spell school. lol

[Nikele1967]

He is infinitely beautiful, inside and out. Always was, always will be. Even before he was a twinkle in his mother's eye! He transcends any conception of beauty. His existence has made mine a billion times better. Since I'm 11, Bowie, Bowie Bowie. Growing up with him on playing at home, I modelled my look after Bowie, with short blonde hair like he did during his "China Girl" days. I wrote for my high schoold paper, and did a huge write up on Bowie, and people called my little Bowie!

[MrNatrax]

Is it just me, or is the older version of the girl more beautiful?

[bowiefan5]

94 ppl compared this song to "Rebel, Rebel" and have no perception of time or maturity. I love this man the way I did when I was sixteen, I loved his Heathen Album, and I love this album. He doesn't try to make a "comeback" like some other rock stars. He knows he's getting on his age, and it's time to relax. He's immortalized in pop; he's not going anywhere.

[udohood]

davids fame is Ka Ka, poop...he's lousy at "being famous" he isnt so hot on stage either,hes a bit of a drifting mind, it drifts well inside recording studios. his fame was too meteor , it affected him.

[henry45d]

next to him is that a travesty?

[Worldxian]

una letra muy obscura...

[SHADOWFOX8216]

very emotional

[SHADOWFOX8216]

one of the rare original songs

[impygmalion]

Always liked the song first time watching video. The video is awesome. I love the visuals the sound interruptions. Just. Art

[pakitovillanueva]

simple video,emotional,for the crisis

[pesca86able]

sexo sexo sexo

[ferdinandsouz]

@pesca86able ??????????

[pesca86able]

@ferdinandsouz any problems???

[gildas2]

His best video clip for sure

[Pequenno54]

@WESSYS dont worry, thats a fact, he is a legend and a real artist, he is music. art, know..

[Abiggell]

True  image...

[Pe0pleAreStrange1]

...David was born on a Wednesday :)

[lastmile77]

LOL she looks at him like he may be showing the beginnings of dementia. "Um, David are you OK?" thinking "Oh no, I know he's David Bowie but if he's going to start standing around muttering to himself I don't know if I can take it. And if he calls me Angie I'm gone." BTW why isn't Iman in the video rather than this random woman?

[Jeordieh]

beautiful song..

[MIRTA119]

amazing no words.



[natomissingsoul]

I wish I was the young girl lol

[MrDanielTynan]

Hope Bowie is enjoying his "hermit" years. I bet now he could remake this video only the middle aged lady and guy could replace the adolescents in the mirror.

[dbmarion]

that actually happens to many men and women, some do not support, and true to themselves, the better find someone who is almost always younger, this is a reality, and it happens because only a few know that dulsura grow with they are born, and brightness in her eye, and if they stay next to who does not cultivate his inner child will die hard and unhappy.

[dbmarion]

I think this song speaks of a man who sees his reflection in the mirror, and the desire of his mind, reflects who some see was, hoping that time back, where his wife used to be a sweet little girl who brings joy , and he was happy, but the reality is, that the blows of life left them sad and bitter.



[eelpieballox]

duality has fucked his head up i think !!

[redplague]

The woman looks familiar.

[MrDanielBang]

Omikron: The Nomad Soul :D

[mspeedway]

THE BEST



[andresikb]

2:12 Beautiful!!!

[nestcanz]

How do you understand it? I think he remembered he still loves the very essence of his women just as they were young. Present time doesnt have to be always happy, but if there is a strong foundation, love cannot be shaken.

[shirush14]

Back to the 90' ;)

[naochanosu]

Who is the girl? Could someone tell me the girl's name?

[peacefultrees37]

she is not old, but cold.

[TheSonsofHorusx]

he has an epic black ladie bassist

[mrsmjforlife]

this song makes me feel sad

[DanDeePee]

this video adds so much to the song, this is what a music video should be

[Azurecook5961232]

Cant stop watching this video.... I really think its wonderful.

[manicm24]

What a beautiful, thoughtful video, in stark contrast to today's rubbish.

[suicidegirll]

@manicm24 I agree in 100%!!

[Azurecook5961232]

I like this song. What a nice voice has...

[spooky18120]

Thursay child - always moving on - travelling - always

[YorkistWhiteRose]

He's much braver than I am. If I happened to be looking in the mirror and something like that happened, I'd run screaming into the night.

[JonnyChannel]

no matter how old you are, you have to be free.

[evil1star1kayla]

If i had one wish it would be to see David bowie on the street and have a picture with him so i can always look at it n smile when im sad

LOVE U DAVID BOWIE 4ever and always o(^_^)o

[torturetilldeath]

absolutly fantastic!

[MrRedrocket7]

He is always n.1 to' me

[TheWhateverwhoever]

SORRY i pushed wrong button- fuck!!! SORRY

LOVEEEEE BOWIE; LOVEEE SONG!!!!!!!!!

[untaco]

I saw this video when I was young and loved it, but I couldn't remember its title - finally found it!

[Silenciadores2012]

@untaco same thing happened to me

[K0smaDeus]

the first words before music, what is he singin?

[Oruboris]

@K0smaDeus it's a line from the song, 'Doin' the best with what I have'... most of us his age feel that way when we look in the mirror, but of course it's about a lot more than appearances.

[WESSYS]

It is just this wish of living forever and never getting old, is not about being hot young or old and cold...life will end for all and that is what Bowie is afraid of..he will go too..But his music and and art will stay forever I hope!!!!!

[DougFunnieTributes]

@WESSYS I see what your saying there, but another thing I could see what this song and what the music video is showing is about how when a relationship starts your both young and you love each other more than life, but as you get older your relationship starts to fade.

[ferdinandsouz]

@WESSYS Good comment! In "Reality" he express a little more about that question.

[nenkam]

love u bowie...

[MUSICMOVIETRIVIA]

Celebrating my last thursday....David Bowie Style!!!!

[BritneyIsFemmeFatale]

a real poet of the music, this is one of my fav songs of him <3

he's the legend! i hope he comes back with a new album soon as I've read!

music misses David Bowie's genius!

[haditabonita666]

i actually like the younger girl better she has an honest and quirky look about her :3

[MrPaky85]

translate please??

[macekekas]

I first hear this song on a flight to madrid from mexico city in the year 2000. This is my second time and wow it blows me just like it did the first time, eleven years ago.

[Moonshine3991]

Their younger selves are not half as hot as the real them!!!

The young guy is weird... And the older woman is gorgeous!!! *-*

[KongoInSweden]

So great bassplaying imho... so much feeling and precence :D love this tune, thx David B

[Crimsonhalo666]

he senses the end...looking back at the life that has faded away in pain...

[gijoe989]

david bowie-thursdays child,gijoe989.

[alma7556]

Oh my God,that's so beautiful!

[CrusaderPRT]

its the only music that i like of him, but its on the top of my playlist

[NoDestinyLive4Now]

I actually think the videos that put David in "normal" situations like this are stranger. Is he undressing?

[CrusaderPRT]

So much class

[ahmaddinejungilvez]

Doesn't look 64 here

[UngKristen]

@ahmaddinejungilvez he isn't. the song is 12 years old. time flies...

[comayitas]

should be a buton that says "can't get enough"

[lucianasaynomore]

Bowie i love you!!!!



[mrsmjforlife]

[sira196x]

David Bowie is the better of the world

[fatinadelbosco2]

GLI ANNI PASSANO E TU SEI E SARAI SEMPRE UN MITO DELLA MUSICA <3 TI AMO

[Alos21]

the older chick is so much hotter then that young Teletubbie

[Nelpan]

@Alos21 david bowie is so much hotter than probably anything in the world :D

[Alos21]

@Nelpan you should see me under the moonlight ;)

hihihi jk,Bowie rulz and I aint no gay

[MrDanielTynan]

@Alos21 Must be a woman who wrote this comment. . totally disagree! I mean the older woman is pretty but that young lady looks amazing!

[darknesslol11]

@Alos21 are you crazy?

[antunezdarosa]

compare a partir do terçeiro minuto e tres segundos deste vídeo,o semblante que se forma atrás da imagem do espelho atrás do personagem agora assissta ao vídeo junto dos wiccas e diga se não se parece!!!

[nacre99]

the words are so perfect, but is life, like this, but as he says, it is, two words at my wedding, is going to be david bowie, when i give my vow's, and my first dance is going to be wild is the wind by david bowie eh up all follower's he does not know it yet, of course a bit of elvis xxx

[claffey]

What a great actor, those eyes steal the show.

[DomSezXL]

Weird, but captivating. Never realised it was written for the computer game "Omikron: Nomad Soul". That was a weird bloody game, which also featured Bowie.

[ManifestPanda]

"Hey david, want to take some mescaline and got look at ourselves in the mirror"

"Hmmmm, sure, just make sure to put on some of my incredibly dazzling music so we don't flip out"

[bowiemichelle]

Can't believe this is over 5 years ago! Sure wish we could see him NOW!! Love you David! XOXO

[MrZancabianca]

quante volte mi guardo allo specchio e...proprio come te mi rivedo e ti rivedo come quando cantavi heroes ecc...suffragette63

[deathgoat2010]

the secret of marriarge is to see your spouse the way you saw her/him the day you got married . that is what the vid is about :) at least to me

[wendynha1]

just like a demon...

[Ynneii]

OMFG!!! That girl did not kiss a singer.....she kissed the god of music

[MrAlski1986]

Thursday's Child and Jazzin for Blue Jean are Bowie's best music videos

[MrMaxicosmos]

I'm not gay but this man is so sweet and so sexy ...

[Shadow77796]

@MrMaxicosmos oh sure

[Francesko263]

What's the meaning of this song? What's this song about? I do not understand.

[Ghaiyst]

from 1:25-1:31 doesnt that sound like something played in a coke add?

[Ghaiyst]

I used to hate this song back when I was in 6th grade, but now i've learned to appreciate it much more. Sounds awesome!

[mads1madsen]

I know i should be jalous on Bowie for receiving a kiss by that good looking bird. but its actually the other way around. And im a straight guy. Whats that?

[woahXgirl94]

@mads1madsen Thats called a guy crush, noones 100 percent straight not even guys, :P

[THEHITPACK]

TUNE

[Dravenswraith]

I blame someone who wanted this to sound like simply red or arron Neville,,

[arbitra]

now he is better than more young.... i think....

[katoklzmk]

ThenIman shows up an.d beats the crapout of that chickie!

[scodellar]

..."Only for you I don't regret

That I was Thursday's child"...

[rosaneviola]

Good very good

[xprmental]

Really great work!

[mcmartins1965]

The girl is Medeiros and she is Portuguese.

[Ysraelc17fox]

THIS IS LIKE THE STORY OF MY LIFE ...

BOWIE IS GREAT.

[rock7star007]

@Ysraelc17fox what you mind?

[paulinhafoo]

There should be a buton that says "love it"...

[Moonshine3991]

Today is Thursday. And I can't help singing this song! *---*

[TheJimbobthe3rd]

I love this tune, and an awesome vid

[ariacurva]

... !

[vigovinie1]

I was thinking that Isabelle Adjani could have played the woman next to him there... That would have been sooooo cool. I´m dreaming of a duo. The most enigmatic and sexy couple of all times !

[CaptainLazer1000]

<--- Life-long Bowie fan. An absolute genius!

[TheRockman70]

media cancion por la chucha!!!!!!! , grande camaleon !!!!!!

[dandyboy1]

The living legend

[idigdig]

The older Bowie looks better!

[PurpleTheNeko]

@idigdig

there's no 'better' from perfect ;)

[paikal73]

fantasticccccccccccccc

[imitione]

You know, he actually IS from another planet?

[LadyBowie1119]

Can someone explain the video to me? I just don't seem to get it. He just stares into a mirror, starts to look sickly and thin in the face, and the woman changes into a different woman and back. I just don't get it. I love the song though!

[imitione]

@LadyBowie1119

Not sure, but I understand th song to be about him reflecting back upon his life...

[LadyBowie1119]

@imitione

Yeah... I understand the song; the vid just confuses me a little...

[marilau0680]

@LadyBowie1119 imitione is right, it is about back upon his life. He looks at them (himself and his wife) on the mirror when they were young and there still was that fire between them. He miss the way she used to look at him but now they dont look each other on that way anymore. That passion is gone...

[LadyBowie1119]

@marilau0680

Oh! I see it now. It makes sense. Thanks!

[marilau0680]

@LadyBowie1119 your welcome!

[13Andrianna]

Great

[razaviknows]

it looks like he turned into christian bale lol

[myPlaygroundEarth]

GOD! I cant watch my cure videos or David Bowie without seeing 10,000 Rebecca Black comments.

[gemivan]

gotta get down on friday

[compsciguy]

Gotta grab my bowl, gotta grab my cereal.....

[sharonbowie]

For a video about staring into a mirror, it is incredibly artistic. Especially when that artistic face is Bowie.  He has a quality that just makes me just want to stare at him 24/7, I'm so drawn to him.

[JohnLewisZanna]

Raziel <3



[cnevs82]

you can really tell the gradual vocal decline in this video ..i dont know if its just time and age or the lifestyle of heavy nicotine with a health amount of coke and alcohol both i would assume...he just does not have that slinky range he had in the Young Americans and Lets Dance periods

[ezaube1030]

@cnevs82 His voice was still as great as ever also in his later days, check out for example some of his gorgeous live performances between 1999 and 2003/04. There is no linear decline. But I agree that on some of the recordings on the album "...hours" - like in this song - his voice doesn't sound as good as it could sound...

[monkeyrobot]

anyone know who directed the video?

[antunezdarosa]

oh no he did this song to Lucifer not deceive me, since it is the same as he dreamed, in the fourth minute and fifty seconds,'re very similar and it is German only missed the fringe to the side that neither he uses

[TrentsGrammie]

Bowie is Freaking AWESOME...always has been and Us "old" people haven't forgotten him....

[Kayia121]

@TrentsGrammie Many of us 'young' people are discovering him! He is indeed awesome, and will never be forgotten!

[woahXgirl94]

i love how realistic it is , like/dislike how he coughs :< Stop smoking bowie :( i dont want you to die younger than you should be :( x

[TheColfee]

I want to be Bowie!

[RecifeBiella]

I love so much this man!!! I'm jealous!!! Ti amo, David! Sei il migliore!!!

[skarsgardskull]

no one will ever be not even a 1/8 of what he is...... never....

[mrsmjforlife]

4:20 i'm so jealous of that girl

[ferdinandsouz]

@mrsmjforlife Iman too LOL

[arffarff]

[woahXgirl94]

[38Avril]

[Rodrigoes]

vaya el cambio de la gente sera el camino a la evolucion??

[ewanfanatic88]

am I the only one who thinks this could be a viagra commercial?

[oldbowiefan]

Only for you I don't regret....what a great line

[cantoswiccas]

o nome deste single é thursday child,music!

[laloquai2]

la raja! genial! bowie es un maestro, un dios!

[Simpsoniano66]

can someone tell me the meaning of this song??

[Secundas]

@Simpsoniano66 The title comes from an old children's poem.

"Mondays child is fair of face

Tuesdays child is full of grace

Wednesdays child is full of woe

Thursdays child has far to go..."

...and so on. My interpretation of this song is that it's about a person who's had "far to go" finding happiness in life's journey, but has finally found it in the form of true love. Because his hard life led up to this, he ceases to regret the past and finds hope for what tomorrow will bring.

[medidean]

she's so ugly, wanna replaced her.

;)

[medidean]

she's so ugly, wanna repleced her.

;)

[spadge321]

bowie is fucking mad , but i love the guy

[jacksok2]

I like how they had some white girl in the video even though his WIFE is black-just sayin.

[divinegsxrkitty]

@jacksok2 His wife and him have not been together from youth. Its in relation to others. Its still a beautiful thought and he is unstopable.

[TheJesterGirl]

@jacksok2 So what? It's not supposed to have anything to do with his real life y'know?

[CarolinaContreras90]

Let me be the girl you kiss in the video :-) ♥

[TheSirFERDINAND]

bowie tiene eso que te da un mazaso cuando menos te lo esperas con una sutileza abrumadora , sin dudas un genio

[musialikos]

wow, such a nice videoclip fikimiki

[erniehea]

Who is the girl in the video? The young girl?
