  • Genius, genius, genius.

  • in those times it wasnt necessary to put the word ''love'' to make a love song!!

  • I don't really give a shit what sexual preference Bowie was, because he was a genius musician and nothing about his personal life changes that!

  • I think it's safe to say Bowie had bisexual relationships. He and his wife met because they were dating the same men. He's known for dating Lindsay Kemp, Wayne County and Romy Haag and having a lot of boys following him around during the 70's.

  • this song isn't long enough

  • Bowie = Beauty

  • Ahhh back when music was real

  • he sings so nice

  • Pink Floyd are better than Bowie? Are you on heavy drugs?

  • @736DarrenClarke is that some sort of sick joke

  • @736DarrenClarke Mmmm Actually, they are totally different, and also, yep, Bowie is fucking awesome but Floyd also blows your mind, well only if you know how to apreciate their music.

  • @736DarrenClarke Oh and also, sincerely their music is more deep and complex than bowie's, but! Stop fighting on who's best and enjoy the music.

  • @736DarrenClarke I like both but God forbid someone have a different opinion than you eh?

  • I heard this song on the radio again this morning. :) I like this song.

  • I've always refused to say this word, but I believe Bowie is the only one who merits it... SWAG.

  • @1091Floyd21 >Floyd

    Son, I think you're in no position to criticize a musical legend as a Pink Floyd fan.

  • @dropdeadspazms Don't you 'son' me!!! Pink Floyd are clearly miles better than Bowie, with the way he sits like a woman at the piano. At least what Isaid was true!!

  • @1091Floyd21

    no, what you said wasn't true at all, it was merely your shitty opinion based on your own insecurities & who's really the fag, the guy who sits at a piano like someone who only uses piano for certain songs or the guy who has to go around on other music videos sucking pink floyds cock? i'm gonna say the cock sucker and i think most would agree and i even like them, but they have nothing to do with this video

  • @RZris We're not discussing me, you moron. Bowie is a homosexual.. FACT. He had sex with teenage boys back in the day. FACT. My points still remain unrefuted!

  • @1091Floyd21

    the one who points the finger shall always be scrutinized, don't you know anything? and just cause you type 'FACT' in capitals, doesn't make it so.....the guy has a wife, so there's one out the window and the other....don't you think a big pop star who had sex with teenage boys, and nothings like you know about it, would've gotten in trouble for something like that? and yet....he never has. go away with your mouth-foaming, retarded, OPINIONS you fuckin chud

  • @RZris But it is FACT. The wikipedia website led me to all sorts of other website about it. Yes, I too would presume that if someone had a wife it would mean they'd be straight, so technically speaking, he's bisexual. He is known for having slept with the same sex and has openly sdmitted it, & then regretted it because it didn't go down well with the american fans. You should know this, you're a Bowie fan. He didn't get in trouble because I think he was a teenager at the time.

  • @1091Floyd21

    backpedal, backpedal, backpedal, go backpedal back into your hole. first he was a homosexual and now he's bisexual, he had sex with teenagers but oh....he was a teenager when he did it. what is it, a homo-boy fucker or a bisexual-freak? either way WHAT THE FUCK IS IT TO YOU OR THE MUSIC? yeah i'm a fan, but i don't know or care about shit like this...it's his personal life, i'm not a fuckin loser to care about what he does beyond the music unlike yourself. fuck off

  • @RZris Once again, lets not resort to mindless insults. Bisexual, homosexual.. lets not fall out over a technicality like that. Bi means both straight and gay, so therefore its true to say he's gay also. I think we can agree Bowie isn't squeaky clean.

    You asked "what is it, a homo-boy fucker or a bisexual-freak", well I suppose its both!!!!!

    I rest my case

  • @RZris I won't be scrutinised, because I am pointing the finger correctly so, and remain anonymous. It has been a while since I looked Bowie up on Wiki, but I can probably still back up what I said if need be. And if need be I will make sure it is well known on this comment page.

  • @1091Floyd21 Actually he and his wife came up with spreading that rumor back in around '70 or so. David's real name is David Jones, like the guy from the Monkees,so he changed his name and started the rumor about his sexuality,. The times were far different then,people in the music industry weren't so obsessed with image above all, and a bit of controversy was good if it made an artist more noticeable. As for being a paedo,I've never heard that and I've heard all about Bowie.

  • @Oldbmwr100rs That's a pretty lame excuse with all due respect!

  • @1091Floyd21 Yeah, well it worked,didn't it? People didn't think Bowie played in the Monkees,and that was the idea. My older brother was very into Bowie in the early '70s,so I pretty much grew up listening to that,as well as learning a lot about hem. His ex wife's remarks regarding David's actions then have largely been seen as weak attempts at trying to get some of his fame is all. As for who's gay in the music industry,Bowie's the very least of them.

  • @Oldbmwr100rs You cannot say he's the very least of them. There's a whole load of sexual rumors around Bowie being gay. You don't just announce you're gay to get fame. You are only surmising the reasons why Bowie's ex wife said he was gay. If Bowie's the very least gay, then we're all gay!!!! Who are theMookees?????

  • @1091Floyd21 If You don't even know who the Monkees (The prefab four!) are,you don't know much about rock history.And it really doesn't matter what David's sexual preferences are,he's been married at least twice,and even in interviews has stated he did it mostly for shock value. And the other thing is, he's a lot wealthier and has been more influential to music in the last 40 years than most musicians.

    He's so rich he doesn't have to care what anyone thinks,really.

  • @Oldbmwr100rs Bowie, and Pink Floyd Rock in their different way. Different rules for different schools. People are so sucked in by what other people think, and I don't think people need to be rich to not care what other people think, unless your selling your ass. Regarding sexuality, watch the movie ''Kinsey' starring Liam Neeson, the entire sexual revolution has been attributed to Kinsey. He sees sexuality as on a scale of 1-9 hetero 1- 8 gay, 9 (asexual)

  • @TheJ731 Perhaps not, but it clearly isn't being performed live, not with the mix you hear, which has Bowie doing backing vocals.

  • 90 people don't like good music :P

  • Happy 65th Birthday David Robert Heywood Jones...i made a special birthday video montage for the celebrations today..please check it out....all my love to Bowie and my fellow Bowie fans..hope you like my vid..xxxxxxxxxx

  • Happy Birthday Ziggy Stardust!

  • Happy Birthday Ziggy

  • Happy Birthday !

    

  • "Put another log on the fire for me. I've made some breakfast and coffee".I really don't know why but I love that lyric line.

  • 90 people are not pretty things......

  • please come do a show in the UK before i spend all my xmas money? :) ahh i love david bowie :D

  • The Thin White Duke""""....So right about those pretty things......and there here to say and drivin your fans insane..thankyou David...You remain the Bomb de Bombe...thanx

  • DAVID FUCKING BOWIE

  • What a beautiful man.

  • ugh i love him so much it hurts D:

  • I adore the lyrics to this song <3

  • Esse cara é foda!

  • Gorgeous man!

  • I love you so much:)

  • I am going to David's fancy dress emporium today.

  • I wonder if Bowie was inspired by "The Midwich Cuckoos" by John Wyndham ?

  • people who play live music can take some notes from this performance, although i think bowie might be an aline/human hybrid, theres got to be a reason he's got those mismatched eyes and wonky teeth and limitless talent that makes it look like he isn't even trying.

  • @fishboy1111111

    indeed we came from duno a far  distant planet:: cant say more here!!!

  • 3:04 - 3:05 Bowie, you pretty pretty pretty! ♥

  • @Groblinfull idk what ur talking about m

  • @xBeautifulMystery don't even say that. David Bowie is God. And can never be beaten.

  • @xBeautifulMystery yeah, I doubt it. Go to bed, kitten. You got school in the morning.

  • @xBeautifulMystery oh, my god. for a second; i took you seriously i thought you were legit, but seeing as you like bands like the Jonas Brothers and Coldplay, call them rock band and look like a scenester bitch from The Millionaires, I'm convinced you're a troll and a bad one too. 5/10 for getting me to reply.

  • @xBeautifulMystery If you're that bothered, don't click on videos are clearly David Bowie. It doesn't take a lot of intelligence now does it?

  • Wake up ! Fast !! 1972, beautiful song, and video also, unbelievable !

  • Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

    Don't you know you're driving your

    Mamas and Papas insane

    Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

    Mamas and Papas insane

    Let me make it plain

    You gotta make way for the Homo Superior

  • Sweet little David...

  • 240p ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  • Great version of a great song. In fact David Bowie put out some of the best music in the history of rock n roll between 71--74

  • Gotta make way for the homo superior! This is such a fun song.

  • Yes, he's inspirational!

  • I love him!

  • my favorite bowie song ever ;)

  • Comment removed

  • Homo sapiens have outgrown their use

  • The most beautiful man on the planet!

  • Scroll up! You're missing David!

  • i think he is amazing who else can play several instruments and sing awesome songs who really takes the time to do that, absolutely amazing!

  • In this video he has grace of the cat. Wow.

  • David Bowie has the most amazing voice, amazing style (i love his ziggy stardust years) and he's fucking handsome. So to all you haters you're just jealous that 100 years from now ppl will be listening to David Bowie and no one will ever know that you ever existed.

  • @Sarinolasg Nope, you're wrong. People will be listening to Bowie 1000 years from now. With his music, one finds time is as you travel in it. it swings back and forth.

  • Bowie is beautiful! Such a sexy smile and wonderful bone structure. I love his ziggy stardust years too, pure class! And yes I still think he is handsome now

  • what??? he's fucking beautiful! <3

  • @xBeautifulMystery FUCK OFF Go die in a hole ! It's horrible to say it.

  • I'm raping the replay button on this thing.

  • Live on "The Old Grey Whisltle Test" if I'm not mistaken. genius.

  • @xBeautifulMystery Obvious troll is obvious.

  • @DogInJar10 Leave me alone I think hes ugly

  • @xBeautifulMystery who gives a fuck what you think? go watch something else cunt

  • @blooddonor70 WTF?

  • @xBeautifulMystery He IS ugly, but HE IS DAVID FUCKING BOWIE, HAVE SOME RESPECT, BITCH

  • @xBeautifulMystery Your repressed gayness is SO confused. You profess to thinking he's ugly and imply he should die for being gay. Yet YOU came and watched the video and felt the need to make a negative comment.

    Free your gayness and stop being a silly little closet queen homophobe. Your life (including those around you) will be much better for it. Lose the bitterness you silly little thing.

  • @xBeautifulMystery are you FUCKING kidding me? why did you even click the video in the first place? if you can't appreciate great music than why don't you listen to the shitty pop music of today, you mainstream fuck.

  • @xBeautifulMystery

    Unfortunately for you, god's like sweet David live forever.

  • @xBeautifulMystery I hope you die, ya cunt mouthed little special ed troll. Wtf have you ever contributed to anything?

  • @blooddonor70 I write lots of songs and they're really good. Better then this troll Bowie atleasy

  • @xBeautifulMystery wow you're embarrassing yourself.

  • @blooddonor70 no youve never heard my songs boo

  • @xBeautifulMystery you're that extra special kind of retarded person that never realizes no one takes them seriously. I'm finished with you now, Bowie is God, you're cockroach feces.

  • @xBeautifulMystery First of all this page is not devoted to you or your song writing skills you arrogant loser it is devoted to Bowie a legend.

    Secondly why should people listen to you when you are a prat

  • he's such a pretty thing

  • I cant get enough of this song! I just imagine singing it in some hollywood flick to the dark and misunderstood girl star of the film! "the earth is a bitch! we finished our news! homosapiens have out grown their use! all the strangers came today...and it looks as if they're here to stay!"

  • Oh, David Bowie, you pretty thing!

  • Loved this growing up. Had the hairdo all through my teens. Great times!

  • this is the greatest song that ever happened. "You're welcome universe." -David Bowie

  • @garycalgary actually, it's loblaws, but yeah

  • Absolutely among the very best songs of the 70'ies. Mozart to my ears

  • this is my favourite music video of all time

  • irritating and annoying

  • I love this song to pieces.

  • 2:12

  • ‎'Don't you know your driving you mama's and papa's insane'!

  • I'm pissed and alone tonight and its so nice to hear the man in the early days ! 

  • 87 people are afraid of Spiders =P

  • @ftwopointeight Maybe 87 people are jealous because they know Justin Beiber will never be this epic.

  • Bowie.. is one of most innovative artists in the history of rock music.. His music sounds just as good as it did back in the day when i was such a major Bowie fanatic. Ziggy Stardust.. Was the coolest.. I think he is such a magical and enchanting creature.. man. I adore him. There is only One David Bowie.. He is a creative and musical genius. He is the Starman.. Ziggy played guitar!

  • Pure brilliance -3 god I love Bowie.

  • momes and popes

  • this guy looks like a fucking tool

  • @1barak1 yeah but he was the original fucking tool of which all other tools are mere facsimiles. learn some respect!

  • hard to believe that Hermans Hermits released this as a single before Bowie lol

  • @wonsworld61

    Wikipedia:

    Peter Noone (Herman)

    Born November 5, 1947, Noone starred in ABC's The Canterville Ghost and played Pinocchio in the 1968 Hallmark Hall of Fame version. His other TV credits include Married ...

    As a soloist, he had a minor hit with David Bowie's "Oh You Pretty Thing" and a minor US adult-contemporary hit on the Casablanca label with "Meet Me On The Corner Down At Joe's Cafe" in the mid-1970s.

  • @devochkadee I stand corrected . .it was Noone as himself not as Herman . .however .. also from wikipedia..

    Oh! You Pretty Things

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    "Oh! You Pretty Things"

    "Oh! You Pretty Things" is a song written by David Bowie in 1971

    The song was first released by Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits, in a single on which Bowie played piano. It became a #12 hit in mid-1971. Noone replaced Bowie's line "The Earth is a bitch" with "The Earth is a beast"..

  • It wasnt a Hermans Hermits single, it was a cover of David Bowie's song by Peter Noone. Oh you pretty things is Bowie's song..

  • Fantabulous ! But, I noticed there are 85 people who can't hear and need to get themselves a 'miracle ear'..! lol

  • Favourite song :)

  • 85 people are ugly

  • I want his boots so bad....

  • As far as lyrics go he is the real deal. His songs are lyrically perfect, in my opinion, I saw him live and he sounds just like the recordings.

  • This song is amazing how could anyone dislike it???!

  • like this if you think that people that ask you to like things are pathetic losers and should really stop being attention seeking cunts

  • anyone know if bowie still tours???

  • @TheWelshCelt No DB has Retired from music !

  • TREVOR FUCKING BOLDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • hye people don´t go around fucking with that bullshit that david is dead. because he isn´t.sorry that there´s more talentfull people than all of you but life is like that and shut up.

  • @shitfishtwinkies did bowie die? am i missing something?

  • @nostalgicBurst  Nope. Just another stupid hoax. I hate them ):

  • @nostalgicBurst

    Bowie can't die. Don't you know he's obtained the power of immortality through the many ritual blood orgies he has every single morning before tea and cake?

  • @nostalgicBurst He didn't! everyone is just saying he did!

  • @nostalgicBurst He didn't! everyone is just saying he did! if he did die, it wiould be all over the news! and its not. Don't believe any of it!!!

  • Like if the people saying "like if you came here because you love david bowie" are LIARS

  • like if you like the song or felt like typing "oh you pretty things"

  • "Gotta make way for the Homo superior" ! I Love it. Bowie has some of the best lines in his lyrics ever. Back in 1972 after I bought Hunky Dory, played it and played it until the grooves were wore out, I said that it was one of my 10 top favorite albums of all time, 43 years later, I still say Hunky Dory is one of my 10 favorite albums ever !

  • "Gotta make way for the Homo superior" ! Love it. Bowie has some of the best

  • looooove hunky dory!

  • Thumbs up if you recognize the incredible IRONY in a Joe fresh commercial using an incredibly poignant song that speaks volumes about current human culture to shill products

  • What the fuck is Joe Fresh?

  • @archer1949 i swear, i was wondering the same....!

  • @TheIncredibleHulk97 i suppose I could look it up, but I really don't care enough.

  • @archer1949 lol yeah

  • @archer1949 Its a brand of clothing. This song was used for their fall commercial.

  • @archer1949 fucking joe fresh is a canadian clothing line found at Zellers department store

    you're welcome

  • @archer1949 it's a Canadian Clothing chain

  • Ah, he was so young. And that smile is just golden. ^_^

  • Hunky Dory is one of the greatest albums ever made

  • How does a Joe Fresh commercial ever compare to the first time you ever listened to Hunky Dory. Go home. Please.

  • Its fucking SAD that people YouTubed this video based on a Joe Fresh commercial. Educate yourselves. David Bowie is one of the greatest musicians of all time. READ A BOOK YOU FUCKING LOSERS. STOP LISTENING TO TOP 40 SHITTY RIHANNA/BIEBER CRAP.

  • Comment removed

  • Respond to this video... what if we came here to listen to the song from the joe fresh ad cause we liked it instead of the ad? isnt that considered educating ourselves?

  • @candiceskullian sounds like somebody is jealous of my top comment? 

  • 3.31 how could one not like those eyes and grin

  • I knew it was Bowie's tune on the Joe Fresh commies......I'd say Mr. Fresh has very good taste........ in music!!!

  • Yay good music being used in commercials

  • Quality posting

  • king of intros.

  • Joe Fresh army has arrived.

  • @LiveBeat5 joe fresh kicks ass

  • all the nightmares came today.

  • Like if you have awakened from an age. I like you coming instead of...going. I like you just regular infatuation. Is that a problem?

  • THANK YOUUU JOE FRESHHHH, HOW DID I NOT KNOW OF THIS BOWIE SONG? <3 UGH I LOVE IT

  • I was so sure this was the studio version but no. It's live. Bowie is a god.

  • @SilverIsHere sounds even better live thatn the studio version imo XD

  • That's it i'm buying joe fresh clothing from now on!

  • @SingALilify

    Maybe, instead, you can not be stupid. David Bowie is great, that does not automatically mean that Joe Fresh Clothing is great. The two are not in any way correlated. Stop being a consumer whore. I'm sure you're a great person however.

  • @purplelobsta calm down -.-

  • I thought it was Jack White singing on the commercial!

  • Bowie <3

    I have such a girl crush on this man.
