  • THATS CRAZY THE SIGN IN THE PICTURE SAYS K.WEST AND KANYE LOVES BOWIE

  • @kingod615 Kanye is a cunt that doesn't deserve to love Bowie. He should really consider suicide.

  • @TenWhoWereTaken thats crazy how you can hate somebody you dont even know like that lol god bless and take it easy bro its not that serious lol

  • @kingod615 I was being hyperbolic.

    Well done for being calm and pleasant and not lowering yourself to my level :P

  • i first herd this when i was 13 i am now 51 brilliant

  • VISIT AND WATCH mesaboogie1231 CHANNEL!

    AMAZING!

  • SAX SOLO!!!!

  • il sassofono, che delicatezza ...

  • Great song, love the second part, so elevating.

  • "All I have is my love of love

    And love is not loving. . . "

    So true most of the time.

    Nice upload & vid. Thanks.

  • beauty itself :))

  • stone love

  • well its the 21st century and music is dead what a pity, wish i could go back to these times :(

  • @doctorw2 At least you were lucky enough to have lived in those times, I was born in fucking 1991!!! :(

  • @MyScarletFall yikes! so sorry about that

  • @doctorw2 Music isn't dead, but popular music certainly is. Everything on the radio sounds the same!

  • I am very sorry that you have mistaken the lyrics. Not only does the correct spelling of "defenceless" remain as "defenceless" but the words surely remain "save the slogan" "And love is not loving" "the priest that tastes the word" and not only those but also "sweeping over 'cross a baby". I hope that you might redo the clip with THE corrections, as otherwise it's a great job!

  • thnk u very mux

  • The subtitles are slightly wrong. For instance: it's not "to see the slogan", but "to save the slogan"...

  • @Fernagomes you do one then smartarse , don't criticise unless you can do better

    "for instance" most ppl already know the lyrics anyway , way too quick to judge......

  • @goonchistaw Who are you to tell me who I should criticize or not? And why are you taking my comment negatively?

  • This lyrics are just amazing. They could easily be included in an anthology of great XX Century Poetry. Real art is timeless!

  • I love the way you have created the visual experience with the lyrics subtitled. Very profesionally and tastefully done. I hardly ever notice the usual home made vids on you tube but yours compliments and actually adds to this great understated early Bowie song. Very enjoyable. Thanks

  • I´m hooked on that one for several months...Ziggy Stardust and Hunky Dory are on heavy rotation :)

  • Glam rock and a touch of interstellar faith on Love

  • yeah lovely and it is 'all i have is my love of love, and love is not loving'

  • Its "Love is not loving"

    not "nothings like loving".

    Sorry but those are epic lyrics, they must be gotten right. 

  • the combination of his voice and the way it builds in the chorus is magical....its amazing how this whole album affects you like nothing else can

  • Epic.

    That's all I have to say.

  • most underrated song on ziggy

  • @otacon17x ...totally agree..very understated and underated song

  • holy shit... jdilla sampled this beat on take notice. look up jdilla, take notice

  • Thanks for adding lyrics. Not enough users do that.

  • The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

  • Yeesss Yesss. <3

  • wow xxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • Very nice song!

  • The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from mars is a fucking masterpiece. The only change that I would make (and I have thought about this since buying my first copy in 1972) would be to exchange "velvet goldmine"

    for "it ain't easy". David Bowie is the musical talent and genius in an individual that the Beatles were as a group.

  • "Love is not loving" Insight on/interpretation of this line, anyone?

  • @redsandmountain ''Love'' is not loving him. ''Love'' doesn't treat him very well. ''Love'' hates him. I thank that's basically it. He has problems with problem (because it's ''careless in its choosing''.

  • ...I'M AN ALLIGATOR!!!

  • @Tauvy LOL...I, also, want to kick into that next !!!

  • YouTubers, perchance the saxophone painting is by Bowie?

  • What a lyric: '......slogan that hovers between the headstone and her eyes for they penetrate her grieving.....'

    Talk about imaginery brilliance!!! LOVE YOU DAVID!!!!!

  • @botbagel I bought the Ziggy Stardust album when it came out and still have it. Even though every bit of the entire album is burned into memory...

    that lyric still brings a tear.

  • @botbagel what about the line from ziggy stardust: " like a leper messiah" ? that one makes me chuckles everytime. youd never see a modern music artist come close to thinking up something like that

  • hey, great work! just a note- the lyric is

    'All i have is my love of love, and love is not Loving.

  • Quanti ricordi ...

  • The last line of the chorus is actually: 'but love is not loving', which is what this song is all about.... thanks for posting this

  • @doctorw2 Bigger picture than just that

  • @Tauvy what do you mean? and why did i get three thumbs down for my comment this is clearly a spirtual song.

  • i used imovie for the mac

  • @Smoogly5

    Great job man, truly. One can tell it was a labor of (soul) love. :)

  • great video Smoogly, what did you use to make this?

  • great video1

  • One of my favorite guitar songs of all time. What Mick Ronson does with his sound is great! The little harmonic riffs between lyrics, the way he keeps it melodic and fades out low-key instead of going wild like other songs require. It all comes together here, backup vocals, sax, guitar riffs.

  • I first heard this when I was 10 years old at my brothers mates. He was gettin down to 5 years and I was wonderin what the hell kinda place I was in! And then it started... Soul Love. I've been in love ever since

  • That certainly is interesting... thanks for the comment though

  • This song makes me think of Anime, for some reason.
