This version is so beat...god rest Mick Ronson's soul....the man belted this fucker out like the GLAM ANTHEM it is !...this is just plain ole disappointing... and i'm a big Bowie fan.... but this particular ensemble can't do it justice...for all of Reeves Gabrels talents, at times he just becomes plain ole annoying.
God! I would give anything, anything at all to be Gail Dorcey at that moment. I could actually feel what she must have felt. OH, GOD!! HELP ME, PLEASE!!
I hate to break it to you longfade but that's the lovely Gail Ann Dorsey on bass. She's been with Bowie for 10+ years and when she duets with him on 'Under Pressure' not only does she play the most wicked bass line, she sings Freddie Mercury's part very well.
@flash6859 your not kidding,,she does the best version with Bowie on under pressure,,,she hits those high notes to perfection,,,so anyway i agree with you.....
Definitely one of my favorite bass lines right now. That's MeShell Mdegeocello playing bass. She's pretty much sticking to the original bass line, but kicking ass as usual. I love that walking bass line during the verses.
Awesome video! Definitely one of the most underrated Bowie songs out there!!!!!!

I Love Bowie, and I have all his old albums, but this version didn't really do much for me. He's still cool though.

Well put! Gail Ann Dorsey rocks. She blows Suzie Quatro away on bass and has an excellent voice!

Rockin' the "Bohawk", smoochin' Gail Ann on stage, being Aladin Insanely rich - it's good to be Bowie.

Bowie has morphed himself so many times with his look and style, and yet always comes through with his genius and talent every time.

I have to agree with you. Either this version or the one on the Heathen Bonus CD.
