David Bowie - Miracle Goodnight Promo Video

[rebeccaliebregts]

David Fucking Bowie <3

[spiddia]

Mr. Bowie's a genius.

Now, if only he hadn't included that scantily clad cowgirl...then maybe I'd be able to recommend this to a few friends.

[boundandfallen]

this is so damn catchy for sounding like it was created on a childs toy instrument hehe.

*goes to find old xylophone and boomaphone*

[spiddia]

At 1:24, I think it's funny that he says "nobody dancing" when there are eight of him.

[elyurita]

this album drew a complete blank in David´s career, face it. It was wierd. No underrated shit...

[ivankaramasov]

BTWN is in my top 5 Bowie albums. And it is very underrated as your comment shows.

[panacea999]

this is one of his best, certainly his purest love song

[LadyGrinningSoulDiva]

At the moment, the 90's is my favourite Bowie era. But I love it all! Cool video, very underrated. Thanks for posting.

[davidscalling]

This silly "Audio Preview" thing is messing me up big time. I've replied to so many comments and then hit next page or clicked on another icon without realziing that I was only hitting "Audio Preview" and not "Post Comment". LOL The Audio voice is rather primitive and crude. My text to speach reader uses natural voices. You thoink that YouTube would get with modern times and use a better txt to speech voice.

[davidscalling]

Bowies self titled albums from the early 90's were cool. I liked it when he did the project Tin Machine. However I couldn't figure out why all of my friends seemed to dislike or even hate Bowies late 80's early 90's stuff. They all seemed to stop listening to him. I loved a lot of his early 90's stuff. Everyone I knew started listening to rap crap, and that god awfule grunge stuff. I listened to Bowies 90s stuff in private because my friends who yell at me to change it. I was a closet Bowie fan.

[HighwayJoe]

It is a sad reality that a deep divide exists between fans of Bowie in the 70s and fans of everything Bowie did after that. I grew up in the 80s, so I didn't even know about Ziggy Stardust until the late 90s. And I enjoy pretty much all of Bowie's work, although I freely admit the records from the 80s and 90s [and today] are my favourites.

I wish the divide did not exist at all. But that's nearly always the case with musicians who span decades.

Anyway, glad you're out of the closet. ;)

[davidscalling]

I was like that as a teen in the 80's I loved his modern 80s stuff but when I asked a Record Store Clerk for ideas on what to listen to he gave me some of Bowies older stuff from the 70's. At first I didn't realize Bowie was around that long so I didn' believe it was the same Bowie (haha I was young). Anyway, when I brought back the tape the next day and told the clerk it was "crap" he got upset with me... continuted...

[davidscalling]

...cont... He was an older Hippie Dude who loved Bowies older stuff and I was a New Wave / Alternative Rock kid who loved Bowies newer stuff. He thought that Bowies new stuff was crap and I thought Bowies 70s stuff was crap. LOL By the late 80's early 90's I enjoyed both his 70s stuff and 80s stuff. I liked his late 60s stuff too as I got older. I remember the old clerk guy ranting at me about my music being crap so it actually made me hate 70s stuff even more. He didn't make a good arguement.

[Aueneye]

It is sad especially when you realise that Bowie is who he is because he is ever changing with ever changing tastes. To think of Bowie as being of one particular time or style is to miss the point of his music altogether.

[frenchfanbowie42]

i jump for him,,,,,,,

[femaleBowie]

Reminds me of the duke in certain scenes.

Droooool..

[AziIsobel]

It reminds me of Thin White Duke's times, too.

[bowiemania7]

oh i love the duke!! so hot!

[dbdeg88]

Wow, Bowie could still rock the leotard even in his 40s! And I absolutely love his homage to Buster Keaton...so cute!

[AzzieAvenell]

hehe... "rock the leotard"... too right!

[wrongimpressionist]

No bad songs in this Album, "Black tie white nose".

[SednaDeli]

Man. Black Tie White Noise was by far his most out there album. Great stuff, but dammmmmn, it was so utterly different from absolutely anything he did.

[jjellybean00]

If what I read is correct, this album was his wedding present to Iman. When you hear that and then go back and listen to the album, it kind of takes on a different life.

[Bowiefanperson]

damn. I wish someone would give me apresent of that proportion. "Oh instead of buying me that Lou Reed album you asked for I actually called him up and he made a new album for you"

[Bowiefanperson]

oops typo. it's instead of buying YOU. not instead of buying me.

[ivankaramasov]

It is a great album. I remember it took me months to realize just how great it is. Now it is in my top-5 Bowie albums. I remember reading an interview with Bowie (in Rolling Stone I think) prior to its release that he did not think he had reached this artistic level before.

[sophielovesbowie]

birdBirdBIRD

bowie is well fit.

i love this song

:)

[jjellybean00]

He's georgous!

[Matteic]

All the black&white parts are superb.

[bionicbigfoot]

Almost sounds like something from "Labyrinth", don't it...? Not a great favorite of mine, but, as always, brimming with that unique Bowie-tres-cool vibe.

[screamURhartout123]

hahaha shows he likes sex lol XD haha i adore David Robert Howard Bowie

[stardust2116]

03:24 - TWD. ♥

[Matteic]

The cow-girl is... special. Anybody knows what she's doing here ?

[minners57]

She is waving her boobies....lol... Ummm ya thats pretty much it...hehe...

[stardust2116]

There are lots of this point in this video where he looks exactly how he did as the TWD.

Never ever ever get old.

[stardust2116]

Yum. =)

Through his early 90's video's, he seems to have a thing with wiping his mouth. Sexy though.

[alma1980sommerregen]

DAMN, SOOOOOOOOOO SEXY!

[Harveyfan]

No me extraña que le llamen el Dorian Gray del Rock.

[zoxofzox]

yeh, it was announced in the early 80's that bowie would play buster keaton in a biopic, but it didnt materialize. this video offers the only quick glimpse of bowie as keaton.

[Swagger666666]

magic, isn't it?

[pseudoniempje]

I love him in the black and white costume, when he says knock on the door and does it at the same time. It's just really funny. I want those gloves by the way. Love the song, love the video

[rabidfangirl777]

hot

[Aueneye]

Bowie copy Madonna? About face sir.

[asy4]

Psychiatrists everywhere would have a field day with all the mirror-Rorschack imagery!

[AzzieAvenell]

funny but such a turn-on all at once! hahaha

[hellospacegirl]

Why, why, oh why?!! Why David is so sexy? This video made me WILD! :) Thank you for posting!

[ladybug1230]

who is the blonde woman

[asy4]

I started to say maybe it was a reference to Madonna, but Madonna's Cowboy hat phase was many years after this, I think. Maybe Madonna got the idea for her Cowboy phase from this video.

[asy4]

As the red-head in the "Boys Keep Swinging" video, I always thought he looked a lot like Katherine Hepburne. In some shots here, the resemblance to KH is even more uncanny! He is totally wicked in that pin-stripe suit! Great Video! Thanks for posting!

[ribogok]

And the talking busts look like Buster Keaton!

[asy4]

At first, I thought you were being sarcastic, but on rewatching the video, you are right! They do look like Buster Keaton, and I think that is deliberate. The silent film character starting at 2:37 to 2:54, looks like Bowie making an overt allusion to Buster Keaton's silent-era persona! Great observation.

[ribogok]

I'm sure it's deliberate. Did a Google search on "miracle goodnight" and "buster keaton", and it came out that the comic interlude does reference B.K. explicitly. The Katherine Hepburn impression is uncanny.

[asy4]

I never knew Bowie was a Buster Keaton fan. Makes sense though, given his mime/theater background.

sorry I didn't thnk my comment got posted!

[saranneproject]

i'm fan for the life

[BlackLily888]

Love it................

[Bowiefanperson]

I love this song. Don't yet have the album though.

[Matteic]

I really don't know wich one I prefer. I think I love both.

[AntheanCeilliers]

So beautiful. thank you.

[perisphone]

Love him in the black shorts and the roman sandals....

[alma1980sommerregen]

I agree!!!!!!!!!

:-)

[BlueSilverStars]

As do I. He has great legs. xD

[WoodRatGirl]

@perisphone

I love him in anything!

[Earthling14]

That cowboy chick is so pervertively funny xD. Love the Song thought.

[All4YouSophia]

I'm so glad you put this video up here!

It used to be on youtube, and then it was taken off and I was so sad because I like this version of the video better than the with David just sitting and singing this song.

this is such a creative video.. I love it so much!

(except for the talking roman busts which I find slightly horrifying.)

[bngr1]

It's true. It was so great when the video appeared a few months back and everyone was grateful that we didn't have to look at hottie dancing anymore and I added it to my bebo etc and just as quickly it was gone. I hate when that happens. I expect youtube links to be there forever.

[rocknroll015]

Too much sexy. *splodes*

[mrtyles]

bowie is funny
