True story. I was once sitting in my friends living room, as an adolescent, eating Doritos, and listening to a Zepplin album before I was a fan. Suddenly, a vase shattered in front of the speaker for no reason. I had no idea what happened. My friends mom gave me the evil eye for breaking it, but honestly, I was the only living creature in the room and the vase broke for no reason. Or was it black noise? What do you think?
David Bowie took his interviews well even when he didn't like the questions. Russell Harty was rather rude to him. He just takes it. I think though later (correct me if I'm wrong) he'd just drop a question, avoid it or distract them or just kind of ignore them. One interview the interviewer asked very inappropriate questions that could destroy a person's marriage. He just went through it though. I feel bad for him sometimes.
I didnt realize till now what a bad interviewer Cavett was. nothing particularly interesting about his questions, really silly stuff coming out of his mouth.
I can hardly stand to watch this .Bowie is so out of it and talking shit its unreal.Hes a total prick who only wrote good stuff when he was with a decent musician ie Mick Ronson ,Brian Eno, Nile Rogers.Im going to be sick now
He was not humble. He was in one of his darkest paranoid and cocaine filled times.
Could such a genious and charming personality ever be humble? It's CLEAR that he was trying to hide his embarrassment and Dick Cavett was actually sweet and nice, luckily.
He was into black magic and sick lifestyle: he had been eating only milk and peppers for months and months...
A lot of people think he is real high on drugs in this interview but I've seen interviews where he is way worse, so it's nice to see the young Bowie fairly aware and mostly himself in this one. Altho it makes me sad when he talks about his wife and son.
"The innocent and beautiful have no enemy but time"
He was just amazing. I cannot even describe it... His voice while he spoke, his laugh, his teeth, his wittiness... 1972-1975 was when Bowie was most incredible, IMO. It just really tears me up and saddens me to know that that person no longer exists... I can watch this interview a thousand times and still look at him in awe. What a remarkable person he was... Still is... But back then he just seemed magical. He was beautiful.
I love his sons original name and also how David just smiles. :D He marries Iman later who is both a model and actress. :) He's very smart and I like how he just pauses with "um" every once in a while to think. He was smart to avoid politics, I wish I was just a smart. Amazing man, he's everything everyone says he is. He's just really and completely wonderful.
He was perfect and so other worldly at this point in his life, i wish he could have stayed like this forever, but i am grateful it was captured on film, so it never dies. Mr Bowie really is and always was a facinating creature, then more than he was ever again.
If Dick is really trying to make David uncomfortable and trying to trip him up he didn't succeed haha Bowie is still swauve and cool even though he's stoned out of his mind. He is very sexy here and his hair was amazing!
exactly! u said the same what I just comment under part 3! now I know why he had so many fans and why many people (girls) think he is pretty in that time.
omg he's such a cutie ! i love his red/orange hair periods LONG LIVE BOWIE what an amazing man i love his little tie and the cane great interview but i dont really like how rude Dick Cavett is being David seems somewhat intimidated and Dick knows it, so idk if its just me but he seems like he's trying to make David uncomfortable However, David remains just as sweet and charming as always no wonder i love that man so much thanx for posting(:
i just think dick is being himself. not really meaning to be rude. just trying to do his job i suppose. David is really charming and shy though but thats david! lol
playing with his cane the whole time:) thats the kind of boyish quality you dont see much:)
