  • Forever young.

  • i love bowie

    david superstar

    

  • This reminds me of the band Lacrimosa. Tilo looks like David & Anne looks like the female singer here.

  • I thought Absolute Begginers tab on GuitarTab was an easy tab for absolute begginers, and finally it' such a great song.

  • Terrible audio quallity :(

  • Wow! Amazing song..The vocals, piano, and saxophone are pure magic.

  • Riveting song. What life should be about, LOVE, not things, and false friends.

  • Maravilhoso!!! Incrível!! David Bowie!!

  • Love it. It's me and my wife forever.

  • I absoluteley love it

  • absolutly...........thumbs up.....

    

  • i hurt a monkey once by mistake and it looked like the monkey was grinning. david like the late mr jackson, thats michael not joe, had a monkey too.

  • RIP Mr.Bowie - such sad news

  • @CharlieSpooner What A Nob Jockey you are! Guess U are one of lifes idiots that this planet could do without!

    Shame you will never grow up because you are so stupid brought up in a degenerate upbringing.

  • @CharlieSpooner Get off the Internet you dribbling moron. Nursie is here with your medication. Run along!

  • @CharlieSpooner TOOL!

  • This song always makes me tear up cause it's so beautiful. :')

  • What can I say? One of the best songs for lovers..for beginners..for everyone who has a spark of love in heart...

  • david looks so sexy in the fedora and trenchcoat

  • Who ever directed you in this fucked it up.

  • eye luv ya all

  • childhood flashing before my eyes....i am grateful to my father for being cool enough to be playing this music when i was a kid...

    nature and nurture joined hands there completly:)))

  • Absolutely Great!!!!!!!

  • sempre bellàà

  • what i have to say... the 24 people who clicked on the unlike button... i think we just have to ignore them.. they don't belong in this world..

  • Absolute great.....

  • ISS 2030: "Absolute Beginners": you can play it anywhere..

  • hi kate bush!

  • @54taqiyya she does sound so incredibly similar but actually, no, it is not Kate Bush.. it's Janet Armstrong.

  • @amsgal ok, thanks for that. i was sure it was.:)

  • Not only is it wonderful song, it came from an excellent movie!!

  • This is a wonderful rock song: can be played anywhere: in a cafe, at a barbie, at a midnight bar. Budding songwriters can learn from this song because the lyrics are meaningful, universal, and express the exciting incipient part of a relationship. Or the renewal of one. The jazz parts give it a muscularity that makes the song appeal to both men and women. The longer soundtrack version has a longer jazz part and finishes brilliantly on that bam-bam ba'ahm that it begins with. A great video-song!

  • perfect song..jenita i love you and our 3 crissa, jenny a aljhane ..i pray we can hear this song together sometimes in real, greets from düsseldorf to western samar, phillipines

  • Bowie the Maestro!

  • He is absolutely amazing...

  • Este hombre ha demostrado que sabe hacer música. Tiene canciones enormes. Esta es una de ellas.Leí que Lennon quedó impresionado de su sentido musical, y de su capacidad de improvisación.Grabaron juntos Fame, y across the universe. Un lp de Bowie: Youngs americans.

  • this man is just too goddam gorgeous

  • @glamourennui

    and loving the alien . and wild is the wind. and cool world. and as the world falls dwon and all the early 80s stuff . and some of the let's dance stuff . couldn't agree with you more !

  • unbelievable song, one which always reminds me just how good David Bowie is.

    i still remember as a 19 year old waiting for the song to be premiered on The Tube in the UK one friday evening. Watched it with another Bowie fan and at end of the song we sat there in silence and awe at these vocals. it was then rewinded on the vhs video for at least 2 hours . moments like that stay with you forever. god bless yoy David.

  • なんて美しい曲なんだろう・・・いつ聞いても胸が躍る

  • 25 years on, the beauty of this song brings tears to my eyes each and every time I hear it..... & i'm a 44 year old bloke!! It needs covering...

  • einfach geil! only cool! its only david bowie... i love it!!!

  • great song crap film

  • @TheSeanm102 ditto....;)

  • per usual Bowie has bewitched me agian!

  • Rick Wakeman plays in this song

  • Ein grandioses und zeitloses Meisterwerk!

  • absolute one of the greatest songs ever...tonight i replay 20 times in a row, and not enogh...

  • This video-song is compelling to watch. It is like a trailer for the film itself. I suspect the movie did not quite do well in 1986 because the movie's theme of the fight for racial harmony in 1950s London jarred against actual events in 1985 with race riots in London. The song is utterly brilliant. majestic lyrics. Some david bowie songs would be great in musicals and this would be one of them. Bravo Bowie!

  • absolutely perfect. thank you for this music. i could listen to this one 100 times and i'll never tire of it...

    -prof mhon sousa

  • part of a masterpiece

  • Qué embole sería la vida sin Bowie

  • samantha te amoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooo.

  • se me caen las putas lagrimas...

  • this song is one of my favourite Bowie songs :) He's simply EPIC.

  • "And I'm absolutely sane"... Les jeunes sans troubles mentaux sont rares. Déjà vieux, cons et racistes.

  • Great David Bowie!!!

  • Choon!
