[cherrrianna]

It wasn't the song I liked it was the video I thought was just to cool ....

[goldie103103]

I love the fact he playing 2 parts in this music video and that make ups quite effective.

Happy Birthday David Bowie !

[sallyfieldrequired]

Is that the biba rainbow room??

[alphonsedot]

love tht makeup

[kja427]

In The 70's, Mr. Bowie was great, but unorganized. once he got organized, there was a time he was unstopable. I wonder what he was trying to say in his presentation in this video. That's the one thing I can't figure out. At any rate, nice work, Mr. Bowie; Keep it up!

[MrOdelay72]

1:53 RATTLE AND HUM ¬¬

[fanofprotopic]

this song would have fit nicely on the "Let's Dance" album

[Play2Win1958]

She aint bitting David  lol

[schmittelt]

I used to have this single...on blue vinyl.

[Play2Win1958]

@schmittelt - I got it on his greatest hits that came with a Video DVD to all the songs ! pretty kewl !

[fmarockerfreak]

it may not be cerebral (to quote Bowie) but it sure as hell makes me dance

[GNOSISCOLECTIVA]

A cell shaded David Bowie

[MrDanielTynan]

That comic book style two tone makeup. . looks so cool! Makes him look like a comic book character

[shelleyinthecity]

3:10 is an obvious reference to cocaine. Look how Bowie smiles when he taps his nose.

[DaNiElRyNeMaRiN]

im got to name im daughter blue jean

[RollingOrmond]

Bowie an ADD dilletante, but this video is clever.

[YorkistWhiteRose]

He's such a good actor. On the stage you have the... undescribably amazing singer, and in the audience you have the drip.

[kapri11212]

And Twilight was born....

[undeadsymphony]

2:51 David Bowie knows how to shot web?! :O

[RollingOrmond]

@undeadsymphony It's taken from Japanese Noh theater where they shoot webs from their sleeves.

[TheSHERIE68]

lot of but licks turn up when it comes to rich junky liars

[ziggylarsen]

amo este video!

[horseboyken]

his makeup makes him look like a living shadow

[guystevo]

gino 

[kanumbra]

i just wanna hit that girl and say, "NOTICE THE GUY NEXT TO YOU JESUS CHRIST"

[andmaketherain]

@kanumbra But, he's on stage ;-)

[kanumbra]

@andmaketherain ahahah 

[TheKaza29]

This song makes me feel nostalgic

[ferducau]

Debería cantarla Miguel Bose.

[Sugarmoon23]

wasn't there a longer version to this video from back in the 80's?

[lizdylanboykie]

@Sugarmoon23 yep there is a long version, approx 15 mins or so i think with a whole storyline

[hpcine]

Whats with the speed up on this playback?

[mummymanno]

mmmmmmmm!!



[FlyingTurtletastic]

*faints* So... awesome

[jazzyjetson]

Where is the prelude part to this where David plays the over eager suitor and the rock star-this is the best part. Hello. Deliver that part and you rock.

[G3Geza]

Goodnight sweet prince. The world is a poorer place without you xxx

[0lukalukalukaluka0]

@G3Geza on every song of david bowie ur writting that he is dead and he is not ?!?!?!?!?

[JDoub14]

@G3Geza He's alive you stupidhead!!! D: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!

[TheKarinza]

His alter ego at the table is SO pulling a Ricky Gervais!!!!!

[mickeymousebiker1]

Humor combined with great music/dance. This is what made MTV what it was (not the reality shows).

[iammontecristo]

I was pulled a "Blue Jean" joke on a guy from school (because his name was Gene and he's a bit of nerd).

[supersonicbird11]

Yea, I guss its all sunk in looking at the post's Past tense" Was" etc..

It seams it pretty much confirmed DB's Biographer has said it would take an act of God for DB to go back into Music..So Very Sad ! ! ! 

[howltothemoon101]

oh my god Bowie! *fan girl faint*

[kiararei]

bow down in the presence of god

[orios511]

The man who fell to earth, for making us happy!! David, you are great!!

[mayhemnecrobutcher]

get the fuck outa here Vevo! Your not wanted...

[mahermis1]

Great song great video. Bowie was is and always will be awesome, and the Eighties still rule. 'Nuff said.

[stopthesoftkill]

david bowie has the unique ability to make just about any ridiculous looking costume seem cool

[northernsoul44]

eemm is that right said fred at 0:56 LOL

[polodemarseille]

THIS SONG WAS NOT WRITTEN BY DAVID BOWIE BUT BY FRENCH SINGER JACQUES DUTROC AND JACQUES LANZMANM IN 1966

[rosetint5]

Did anyone ever see Labrynth? Very sexy :)

[parragho]

what an amazing make up

and bowie... sigh*

[udohood]

its hysterical with him playing himself with a band aid on his nonse..anthe way the star "sits".....thats borrowed from malcolm mcdowell....

[VanitieGrace]

It's funny how the woman wearing white doesn't realize she's the main focus.

[mrsmjforlife]

david bowie is so beautiful

[Fumanchurisado]

Gino brought me here.



[Sistererica]

Dancing with David Bowie is on my bucket list. 

[llukyrhs1975]

i was just a child

[supersonicbird11]

@llukyrhs1975 who really gives a shit..Really get a grip ! everyone was a child at some point, jesus !

[canihasusernamepls]

THIS is a man who isnt traditionally attractive with incredible sexual pull!

[CadenceL33]

AHHHHHHH!!! He's so strangely sexy! :3

[DarthSeraphim]

The make up artist did a kick ass job on his make up. Its pretty impressive.

[JaemzStar]

@DarthSeraphim I thought he was a painting at the beginning xD

[RasputinNovy1981]

song is awesome, kind of oldschool rock homage with Bowie flavour.

Most bizzare part is at end of song when Bowie at table says something like "he'll come to us", touching his nose (like insinuating cocaine snorting) followed by hysterical chuckle.

[AloofAri6]

@RasputinNovy1981 i think that chuckle was from pain cuz it looked like his nose was broken

[AloofAri6]

I just had an Inception-dream-within-a-dream thing last night where David Bowie was in my bathroom and I touched his hair and then I was at a pool party with this song playing and told my friends I had a dream about him...

[DaveWollenberg]

David hit #8 in Billboard, 11-3-84. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! I just pray that David's WISELY quit smokin' by now. Too many bad things can affect the body from it.

[madonnamaniac94]

love this song:)

[ziggy95]

This was a promo for the song Blue Jean "jazzin for blue jean" was an experimental short video where DB played both hero and fool

[lerocleroc]

What does he say at the end?

[Mateuselgrande]

he aways put you up when you need hin,,

[iAmAPimpHearMeRoar]

I still don't understand why this chick is constantly touching her ear and her nose....

[jefit]

Many snaps for this and just about every other Bowie song.

[smallcharm1]

won this song on a 45 record back in high school during a spot dance (for those who are unaware a 45 was a smaller record slightly larger than a compact disk with just one song on each side). Fell in love with Bowie then and his songs always bring back fond memories :-)

[MeIancholyMan]

Would be nice if EMI would upload the original FULL video including the lead up to the musical portion of this video....

[dsoul100]

Very lovely and innovative video!

[huntercentury]

Thumbs up if you still do the little "snap clap" at the end of the song. :)

[TheQueenOfALLMusic]

@huntercentury I couldn't contained myself, I'm soo hooked up on this song, I actually clapped wildly when i first heard this. :-D

[Kangsryche]

"Somebody stabbed me!!!"

[davettalashley]

If I was Iman, I'd be knocking the boots offa that one every night.

[Capcoor]

My favorite David Bowie song.Although...I never noticed the xylophone in the background-and I'm a percussionist!

[thekonohazuku]

Great! Great! Great!

I looked back upon my happy school day.

From Japan,Thanks.

[scurvy0123]

The Bowie sitting at the table looks like Kenneth the page.

[THEprincessFirefly]

i like the 2 different looking bowies. very well done and rathr different.

[mrsoffspringlady]

@THEprincessFirefly I saw your comment and had to write. I dont know if they have it on youtube, havent looked. But this was a 30 movie brought out on VHS. Seeing the two different Bowies was amazing. They did a great job. You would love it, if you liked this. This is only 3 minutes of it.

[TheBookWorm1718]

@mrsoffspringlady They do have the entire Jazzin' for Blue Jean video up on here, in two parts I believe, and yes it's very funny seeing David Bowie, the nerd, and then Screaming Lord Byron, I love it.

[Moonshine3991]

Man, he is awesome!!!

I seriously LOVE his eyes!!! *-*

[centralparocker]

Dynamite song....

[vicdallastx007]

lleno de putarracos

[Hitman799]

how can this barley have 318 thousand views and justin biebers baby have 550 million????

[sunpygk]

@Hitman799 id say cause his main fan group are 12 to 14 year old, mostly girls no?

[RetroJenny]

@Hitman799 Most viewers on youtube are really young so naturally most of the views will be for mainstream popular music.

[nordg1]

like his collaboration w/ the late freddie mercury on under pressure

[MrAlexxluis]

Could anybody help me? I´d like to understand what David are saying to the girl...and why she is so bored... (English isn´ t my mother language). Thanks in advance.... 

[diamondsammy12]

@MrAlexxluis She's not bored... she's aloof, hard to get, something that's difficult to obtain... does that help you? What is your mother tongue, if I may ask?... : )

[MrAlexxluis]

@diamondsammy12 Thanks, pal. But can you understand the words that they´re sayin to each other? My mothertongue is portuguese, I´m from Brazil.

[diamondsammy12]

@MrAlexxluis Way cool... I'm in Los Angeles... my good friend is currently in San Paulo teaching English... I'm thinking of flying down there to see him... you up to partying with an old rocker gal when I arrive? : )

[MrAlexxluis]

@diamondsammy12 hey, rockers are always welcome here, Sao Paulo rocks! There´s a lot of good places to listen good oldies and have some beer and make new friends! Please let me know when you arrive! You can find me at my gmail or my facebook page, my name is Alexandre Luis Floriano. Best regards!

[Tedisntakidanymore]

I just love this video. There's so much going on ... the make-up, the costuming, the "scene" look...with the hip audience snapping their fingers ...the very sly humor, not to mention the rockin' music. So very cool!  Long live David Bowie!!

[jackhandy0001]

Although the eighties stemmed from the seventies, David Bowie was always original and distinct...

[jackhandy0001]

The eighties were the antithesis of the seventies...This is a good example.

[LeeisCoolio]

So that is right said fred playing the bass then ??

[freelancer9955]

The year this video was made it seemed no one could appropriately estimate the outstanding aesthetics of the video according to the press of that time. The video and film, of which a part was it, seemed simply well done and, may be, the advanced ones. The modern perception of the video confirms that David Bowie shows in this musical scene something more that could be correctly expressed only by musical critics.

[woahXgirl94]

I want to have sex with this man.

[fragglemaniac]

@woahXgirl94 who doesn't! :P

[woahXgirl94]

@fragglemaniac hes 64 and i still want to! loool :)

[IllBeYourDetonator]

I totally just now realized that the guy sitting next to the girl at the table was also Bowie. xD

[talanhawke]

That being said, Bowie is musical genius. Long may he live.

[NeonAngel1997]

RRRraaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwrrr­rrrr

[JKRowling123]

give me your shoes mr Bowie :)

[veralidaine97]

Hands down most gorgeous man to ever grace the earth. And his voice?  Indescribable!

[StevenTheFerret1999]

@veralidaine97 WRONG your thinking of elvis

[veralidaine97]

@StevenTheFerret1999 TOTALLY NOT!!! Elvis is soooo overrated! Besides, why are you pushing Elvis on a BOWIE music video? Bowie is way more attractive than Elvis and he actually writes his own stuff! Did Elvis even write a single song? He may have a nice voice but that's it. So no YOU'RE wrong! David Bowie always and forever! I could care less about Elvis.

[yatsand1]

this video is brill. love bowie always have done always will do. is he alright these days have heard rumours he is not very well.

[laloulaaa]

Sound of my 11 years old !!! Was so amazing at this time !! David Bowie : wwwooohhhh !

[HippieJimi]

Some times I feel like..........

[sceptresoul]

bowie is reminiscent of a Klimt painting here.

[brutal101ladyboys]

the best!!!!!!

[planetbetter]

this video cracks me up; so over the top 80's

[kojiyuulove]

faster

[Skatolotodo]

I dont know why but i see a little of scott weiland in Bowie's face, or viceversa xD

[MegaSarcastica]

I've always been into artistic types. Classic!

[o0Demonz0o]

Is Lord Byron, no Hanna montana

[FreeSaddamNow]

This really looks and sounds better now than it did back in the 80s. Really. I was there. I can atest.

[HBK344356]

DAMN ADS!!!!

[stimpp]

funny...the early 80s we thought Bowie was gone forever - then he made several entertaining videos and thoroughly kick ass songs - Modern Love is one of my favorites and this one is not bad at all.

[MyScottF]

OMG - this video brings back great memories! Not only was the music totally awesome, but the performance's were truly original and creative. If ever a time machine gets built, I want to go back and re-live the 80's....

[louveska]

I love his make up here :D Oh in fact I love him all here there everywhere ;d

[ashcha1228]

gotta love David Bowie!!! :)

[BabbitPenguin]

This is sped up D:

[xXNightmareShadowXx]

I absolutely adore his makeup in this music video. <3

[scholesclass]

First 30secs of the vid are rock genius...

[webster670]

Everything about this song and the video is awesome and that woman is STUNNING!

[makinawdandy6699]

The Turban is a good look.

[dkempf1]

A 30 second ad for a two minute video!???

[mcqueeney]

so feckin sexy with his own teeth.

[4713sixxamrox]

all i sayed when i saw him was...hot..sexy... oh woooow ... and my botfriend sayed " what the fuck im right here u know that right?!?!" haha lovely lovely

[RosesAndTeddyBears]

is it just me but is there a lot of ear touching in this video? david, the girl, and the crowd al touch there ears. and at the end why do they snap? please answer if u know!! im curious

[Kakashi949]

@RosesAndTeddyBears They snap at the end because at some places, such as Poetry Jams or Jazz Bars, they snap to applaud instead of clapping.

[juniebird80s]

This song is so amazing!! Always loved this one! It just rocks!! David Bowie is one awesome singer!! Takes me back to better days. This song takes me back to days of true happiness and innocence. I miss those days. My heart just aches for those days so much. What a time that was! Never to be forgotten! There was a magic in the air back then that you just cant feel today and that is a real shame. This song is pure magic in itself! Missing those days but hold the memories in my heart forever!! ☺♥

[viewtifuljoe99]

There literally is a david bowie song for any mood

[chickloverforever]

@viewtifuljoe99 theres david bowie songs for moods i didnt even know i had

[jakesbulldogg]

@viewtifuljoe99 I agree,and vevo sucks balls.

[Tota4399]

@viewtifuljoe99 That is so true.

[ashbabie89]

God icelights+feature defining make up = one hot as hell David Bowie character. Byron's no Ziggy but he's hot so I think we can compromise

[schumi9xwdc]

Ah the magics in the makeup...lol

[jezzalynrivaz]

damn he's hot itz like porn

[jezzalynrivaz]

damn he's hot

[faiandmattlover]

*snap snap snap*

[nikicolbert]

All bowie fans know that!! IDIOT!!!

[CASADINHAS]

the best

[martinf74]

Mrilyn Manson should do a video like this. Where is sitting in the audience dressed as an average joe watching himelf on stage where a girl is ignoring him as normal.

[rmtmiller]

He was ahead of his time. I've always loved this song and video! Good makeup effects too! And I never noticed before how many times she swipes her finger under her nose!

[jezzalynrivaz]

david bowie is super sexy in dis video

[wildwindchild]

Thank you.

[NAIVADA]

plays too fast....

[rare12inchsingles]

@NAIVADA I agree..It seems every music video of this track on Youtube seems to be sped up..I have the 12" promo vinyl single of this uploaded on Youtube..check it out and you'll notice it's at the correct speed.

[oprahIV]

What is that affect that he haas??
