  • I was talking with my brother the other day, and we both agreed that, all things considered, this may just be the best song ever...

  • This is one of the very few things I thank the 80's

  • Only David Bowie could get away with telling Robert Fripp to shut up!

  • <pure fucking genius

  • Ik was 18 toen deze plaat uitkwam, klinkt nog steeds geweldig

  • What does the girl say in Japanese?

  • @Vispateresa3

    simply, Japanese woman says this lyrics trace in Japanese.

  • @Vispateresa3 Shirueto ya kage ga kakumei o miteiru

    Mo tengoku no giu no kaidan wa nai

    Sorry mate, I couldn't resist it :)

  • bowiesongs.tumblr.com/page/2 there is an explanation there mate !

  • Out of interest, did Bowie stub his toe at 0:55? Sounds like he's really in pain.

  • great great album and song ! love it ! and fripp in one of his best collaborations.

  • La guitarra de Robert Fripp, por favor....

  • @patmos789

    no

  • @clovisr9 Por qué no?

  • This is such a cool album, Thank you Falling for posting

  • Great great great great great piece of art.

    Never will be enough grateful to David Bowie

  • I hate weeaboos for ruining anything even remotely connected to Japan.

  • @TenWhoWereTaken you are a downner

  • top ten albums ever

    

  • thanks for posting. judging by your comments section, the whole world's also glad. love youtube - the people's channel, the world's channel!!!

  • scary monster song habla de nuestros miedos en el constante dialogo con uno mismo..."keep me running,running scare", bob marley diria.."you can run away...but can´t hide fron yourself..papara". en it´s not game sea chino o japones la mujer le esta parando un peo, cuaima como decimos por aqui.

  • 俺現実から締め出され… 何が起こっているかわからない! どこに教訓があるか人々は指を折られている。 こんな独裁者に卑しめられるのは悲しい! 新聞は書き立てる、そう! 難民の記録映画… 標的を背にした恋人たち! 群集に石を投げれば粉々に砕け、 昨日に蓋をすれば恐怖は増す! 俺の頭に弾を撃ち込めば、 新聞は書き立てる… 
  • what Mr Bowie sings, actually, is not "I am bored from the event" but, rather "I am barred from the event"... as in not let in to report on what's happening, and therefore the next line "I really don't understand the situation"... I'll write to you, Dude, and very sorry to complain.

  • what does she say in japanese (or chinese)?

  • @1001subway It's Japanese, and I have no idea.

  • @1001subway

    It's Japanese, and she repeats the lyrics that Bowie sings, I'm pretty sure.

  • @Pe0pleAreStrange1 I had the lyrics with translation once, I think the Japanese was something different to the lyrics. I forget what it was, though.:D

  • The asian gal makes me think of Yoko Ono doing a beatnik reading See Howl.

  • Comment removed

  • between scary monsters and outside is a big hole!!! Bowie can be so good!!

  • sound of leaking gas and japanese speaking. Again another prophetic sound and lyrics 2012 is no game

  • fripp doesn't get enough credit for his work on bowie's two greatest albums, "heroes" and scary monsters. incredible dissonant guitar work

  • . . . "to be insulted by these fascists is so degrading". . .

  • That´s the way. Bowie plus Robert Fripp. There is nothing else I can say.

  • It really upsets me that there isn't music like this today. Only Bowie.

  • And this ladies and gentlemen, is where the Pixies came from...Fripp is so great on this album...spraying burning guitar over everything:)

  • always loved this

  • Eines meiner Lieblingsalben :)

  • Starting at 2:53: The most incredible, dissonant guitar solo in the history of rock music featuring Robert Fripp. The funny this is, so few people know about it except die-hard Bowie fans.

  • @alarkinsane I agree. I am a big Fripp fan, but I'd say he played his very best on Scary Monsters. I would like to add that Bowie's singing on this song is the most incredible, dissonant vocals I have ever heard, the way he sings "...no more free steps to heaaaaaaaveeeeeen..." is the sound ot _total_ desperation.

  • There's more energy in this one song than a thousand H-bombs, the drummer sounds like he's using mallets and hearing Bowie scream at Fripp to SHADDUP! is just priceless!

  • is pete townsend playin on this?

  • @poplife123 : It's Robert Fripp from King Crimson

  • @poplife123 Townshend plays on "Because You're Young" from this album

  • What's up with including lyrics in youtube videos? They're usually incorrect or filled with typos.

  • This is a phenomal song. NOBODY writes like Bowie these days. Bowie challeneged you all the time. He never came up with a song just to please his fans ( must admit post Lets Dance he went aray but he got his mojo back

  • us saxon boys from essex fought tooth and dagger against those vikings in the maldon harbour , we got stuffed but we still got our saxon swords 1000 years later . 1000 years later its not the vikings invading its the imf and all there bankers . learn your history hitler took power when we had to much debt he said i will feed you turn a blind eye. People gonna starve because the bankers make us . Destroy derivatives and fractional banking or we starve no joking .

  • gordons joining the imf , britons gonna get an imf audit , gordons gonna be running the imf . Any red blooded brits realise the story of a power that controls all what we think is in power , ill have to be quick utube dont like alternative undumbed down views , 1 pound 1 euro 1 dollar 1 chip in your head , im 41 listened to this at 10 cheers david bowie opened my mind big brothers watching us .

  • This song and the whole Scary Monsters album are incredible... I never tire of listening..

  • love it!

  • シルエットや影が革命を見ている。

    もう天国への自由の階段はない

  • FANTASTIC!

    Thanks for posting!
