  • This is Benedict Cumberbatch's go-to karaoke song!!!! Ahh.

  • The album cover for "PINUPS" was soooooo bad in its day, my 13 year old in 1973 day, and I loved the album......all covers but taken up a few notches, "Love on ya David"

  • I've been trying to find this video for ages!!

  • I STILL DANCE TO THIS ESPECIALLY AT WEDDINGS. BRILL VERSION.

  • He really should get round to making the 1980 Floor Show an official release.

  • oh my god!!!!!!!

  • Cant fault this cover.

    Checkout Sankofa Liverpool to hear some more amazing music.

  • "a cover of The Merseys"....which was a cover of "the McCoys". something i just discovered tonight - never knew about the mersey's version. i've thought all these years it was a david bowie song - he perfected it, for sure. i checked out the McCoys version - not terrible, when put in context. "pop" band at the fringe/beginning of garage rock straight outta indiana/the midwest. still, i will never forgive that band for "hang on sloopy". ugh. it'll be stuck in my head now for days.

  • Yes, Vork... I did get it in woolies...lol...how you guess?...Was it the .5p?

  • How can I get this on dvd. I love it.

  • One of best recordings I have ever heard, the arrangements are near perfect Drums, bass, Violin etc and Bowie's voice is real smooth, love the Sax break it's spot on, hard to find songs as good as this and recorded as well these days!

  • The first single i bought... cost 37.5 p... full price. Lotta money back in the day... Nearly 4Bob.. Had 'The port of Amsterdam' on the B side... Worth the price on its own.

  • @1doctoma did you get it in Woolies?

  • I love the way he can touch my heart with his songs. This song makes me cry when I remember that I love a girl with long blonde hair and the eyes of blue, and the only thing that I ever got from her was sorrow. Bowie for fuckin' ever.

  • amanda lear was a lad before?

  • @kjsh987 what, all tall skinny women supposed to be men? hah

  • GOD BLESS and KEEP SAVE MR BOWIE FOREVER

  • In an interview Bowie said that he bought a load of costumes and told his band they had to wear them. The band said "no way are we wearing them", Obviously Bowie got his own way and they wore them,The rest is history.

  • @rigley5 i'd wear a barbed-wire bathing suit if he asked me to!

  • why can't music be like this now? *miserable sob*

  • @TomthatiscalledTom

    Here, Here

  • Bowie is so so hot in this video - even if he does look the tiniest bit like Janet Street Porter

  • @pauljones337

  • I heard this one on a sirrius radio and thought it sounded pretty good, so here I am...

  • this is a video from the midnight special..live in london 1973...

  • Amazing

  • My favuorite song from Pin-ups - fantastic cover version.

  • Indeed Bowie is God...Making Iggy Pop Jesus and Billy Idol that spirit thing.

  • @Stratocasterlad Billy Idol? You mean Bryan Ferry....

  • I've been watching too many conspiracy vids. Now, when I see a checker board floor and a top hat, I think Masonic imagery. Great tune though

  • great cover

  • Age references overdone on the Bowie vid's, kids. People always have and always will-endofdisc. 1:03 is AWESOME!

  • @alimcadam-perfect!

  • amanda lear and david bowie are amazing <3

  • totally fucking gorgeous, a complete one-off - this is what talent is...I salute you Mr Bowie for giving us years of beautiful, rocking, amazing music

  • why was i born in the 90's :(

  • @DavidBowieFan1947 I was born in the 90s too :(

  • @Ryxbantti Me too! i was born in '92! ...i think i was born in the wrong decade....

  • AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!

    

  • im marrying him...

    even if he is 52 years older than me.

  • One dark night in summer went listening to "Sorrow"

    Found myself in mood not kind of borrowed

    Listenening contiouned and I felt deeper

    Felt the kind of ways, I would no sweep that

    English is hard for me. Was that ok?

  • So great! March 1974, my 12th birthday, this single as a gift from my brother, my first record ever, on the flipside Brel's Amsterdam. Can anyone have a better start as a record collector? Later in my life Hard'n'Heavy, then Punk, Independent, Post Punk, 60s Trash, Soul, Mod, Acidhouse, in the 90s Drum'n'B. but I always got back to Bowie! Now I don't know who is God. David Bowie or Paul Weller? Probably they are both gods! "Sorrow", so great! Whole Pin Up's is such a wonderful 60's tribute

  • @xpauly Weller mmm, probably a poor mans jedward, never ever compare him to Bowie please, Bowie = God

  • I will marry him, who cares if he's 50 years older than me?

  • They and other bands around were the original gender benders, and yes he did on one occasion bed mick jagger and marc bolan.

  • BOWIE ......  THE GREATEST!!!!

  • i bet he fucked that blonde hair woman that night

  • @joacka either her or the black guy with the saxophone....

  • David bowie you have never brought me sorrow, except for when I think about how I will never have you to myself

  • If i was that girl in the video i would have probaly have wet myself my now!

  • Got this song on repeat :D Amazing.

  • Yes, that was Amanda Lear. :D

  • @Blissfullynostalgiac yes Amanda Lear who sings Queen of Chinatown, love that song.

  • Who s the woman with blond hair? Looks like Amanda Lear from the Roxy Music sleeve!

  • @megapaul8689 I thought this was a model from the 70s called Verushka.

  • @megapaul8689 i tought it was amanda lear too!

  • Hahaha! like his gesture at 1:05

  • DB is good and god

  • Ya i'm 15 but i've loved Bowie since I was 7 and it breaks my heart knowing i'll never see him live cause was Born decades too late

  • @xXmakingwishesXx Same here. How I fell in love with him was by seeing the Labyrinth and now, as a teenager, I'm into his music. I'm your age and I always think "WHY WAS I BORN IN THE WRONG ERA??" He's so amazing, but I probably won't even ever meet him U___U

  • @natotack

    same here. im 14 i LOVE him from labyrinth

  • @jemappelledrwholuvr I saw that film as a teen and fell in love with it. Bowie is the most beautiful man!

  • I have 14 years old and I'm falling in love with him. Bowie is fucking perfect <3

  • @BerrizzyProductions I've been obsessed with Bowie since I was 5 (11 years now) and he gets more perfect every day. You have much to look forward to ;)

  • @BowieGirl95 hi, it's an obsession worth the time, i've been obsessed for 35 yrs and STILL obsessed, he's a GOD. ALWAYS

  • You have taste . Bowie's. gigs are amazin.

  • 2:50 to 3:00 defines why I am bisexual instead of just an outright lesbian. :)

  • @Lenora1854 LOL Awesome comment.. Thank you for making me smile! :)

  • @Lenora1854 LOL Awesome comment.. Thank you for making me smile! :) I think having a crush on him in this video would still make u a lesbian tho.. when he puts his head down and looks at the camera all sultry like, he kinda looks like a chick.. either way, im sure he made alot of people bi sexual

  • Keith st, by Oh Mercy video is a rip off of this song and when i mentioned it on the comments section in the Keith st vid they blocked me lol. Oh mercy are a bunch of wankers.

  • Bowie is GOD!

  • So you must be 14 I guess, and you like Bowie, you have my admiration, it is no easy to find someone so young who likes the old artists... you are a hope (musically talking) of your generation.

  • @bluesmol73 Thank you! I like to think so too. Bowie is my God. Along with the likes of Queen, Mott the Hoople, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure... all the greatest.

  • @chloenoire how old are you hun? i got into bowie in the late 70's and my parents were horrified lol, he is still my hero and marc bolan etc..good on you xx

  • @69millybabe I'm 15, but I got into Bowie when I was 13. Both my parents are very ... contemporary? And like all this modern crap. It's a bit reversed from what it's 'supposed' to be, ahaha. I love Bowie, so much. xx

  • @chloenoire your parents sound cool, you keep on lovin him xx

  • @bluesmol73 oh, I forgot to mention T Rex. :D

  • I want to poke David with a long glittery stick too!!

  • @69millybaby(sorry if I got it wrong!)-AWESOME !!!!!!

  • i learned sax to this and yong americans thanks to db i am now professional

  • how does one give a "thumbs down" to this piece? I guess 34 NASCAR fans wandered off the path.

  • Bad Religion's Sorrow is better.

  • ... since I was 11 I knew that's music and he's an amazing singer!!! love him till I die!!!

  • The guy miming the saxophone makes me LOL.

  • I´m so sorrow, today, Just the Bowie can save me now.

  • Who knew there was a video. Duh. He's David Bowie. Always blows me away. It's cool he's always got a babe.

  • bowie is the best of the world

  • Amanda Lear ? Same person who did the cover of Roxy Music's 2nd album

  • @mkhochb1 ..yes..amanda lear..there was only one amanda lear..

  • The guy was a fucking visionary!

  • gay ass video but I still love the homie

  • Angie, was written by Mick Jagger, who was in Love with Angie Bowie!

  • My Dad used to sing this to me when I was little! He died when I was eleven so this song is special to me.

  • Is this before he starts talking to the blond woman?

  • I... why is he so fucking lovely? And why is he 49 years older than me? Life isn't fair.

  • @chloenoire Amen to that

  • @chloenoire My previous comment was for you of course

  • @chloenoire My speach! <3 Darling, he's been made just to lovemaking! :D

  • @chloenoire Amen, sister.

  • @chloenoire same broski, I never even had a chance :P I should've born right after him...sad face

    

  • @chloenoire

    he's 48 years older than me. i wanna be born in 1948!!!! im gonna go find the tardis, time travel to 1963, go murder iman, and keep him.

  • @chloenoire WHAT? I know...

    Why is it that all the hot guys are either dead or approaching their 70's?

  • @Taggerung12 sux doesn't it...luckily i've found some look alikes but they didn't work out :(

    

  • @chloenoire - i'm 39 and i feel sorry for young people like yourself having to dig deep into the past to find good music - it's a shame that most of the rubbish / bland music churned-out these days is putting the younger generation off music............but, hey.....who cares.......there's always Bowie :)

  • This album is really worth the money. Bowie plays the songs from the London scene in the late 60's. "See Emily Play" cover is also really outstanding on this album.

  • JUST A MINUTE !!! thats gotta be Pete Townshend kneeling at 1.26

  • seems that this video is for real fans only...;-)

  • who is the girl in this??? ....jerry hall ?

  • @monicaflynn1 Amanda Lear was a model and singer song writer. It was rumoured she was a transexual. She's affairs with lot's of singer in 60'/70s

  • @ndeycard......Great share..Thanks!!!!!!

  • Really great music.even for an oldie like me 72 this year. Iwell remember the sixties but can still appreciate some of the modern stuff.

    Best wishes to everyone!!

    Mike.

  • isn't it Kevin Spacey sitting ?

  • David Bowie is god

  • @daveirwin69 yea!? lol! much fallen angel dna in him..rofl! ;o

    ()()():~

  • @daveirwin69 - I ain´t religious, BuT God oughta b spellt with a capital letter, otherwise i couldn´t agree more withya^^

  • This is good, old time rock n' roll.

  • he really is the goblin king O.O

  • (continued) wanted and we got a great album of covers!

  • @immersivemusic-Thanks for the info! Bowie's not only an AMAZING talent, he's a brilliant, clever man. So many artists get ripped off by rich men in black suits who know NOTHING about music. It must suck so BAD to have your rights stolen. Saying F*** You to the "man" Bowie beat them in the most divine way! A beautiful cd, SO under-rated. I was gifted w/the name Sorrow by my love who would tease me & say, "With your long blond hair & eyes of blue the only thing I ever get from you is Sorrow"

  • Pinups is a great record! I read he tried to get back some of his publishing rights from the label/publisher and they wouldn't budge. So, in a "I'll show them" moment, he did all cover versions on this album with songs held by different publishers so his label/publisher wouldn't get any income on the publishing end. He did this to fulfill his contractual obligation and to force his record label into sharing future publishing on songs he wrote and apparently it worked. In the end, he got what he

  • woah. Keep on moving those hips! hehe. XD

  • The intro is just masterful. When I wallow in sadness I remember this songs. I close my eyes and let it consume me.

  • Pin Ups was a very underated project.

  • PinUps  one of my favourite's and Alladin Sane, a Double Pun on (A Lad Insane!)

    "Seeing life through his Brother's eye's, from the Mental Assilum!"

    Were ahead of their time!

    David's mother had six sister's, that were all Schitzophrenic, including his Brother and my Aunt!

    I was obsessed with the Sureal Lyric's!
