Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars - Starman Live In 1972

[suereed]

strings dreadful.... what were they thinking?

[SirOneCan]

I don't see what there is to like... Weird transgender appearance, very average tune & daft lyrics... Why not have "Oh the metal tree & tomato juice river" as a lyric... Would make about as much sense as this pap, overrated crap. Everyone says they like it because they want to conform to non-conformity... Put some Kinks on if you want retro music. At least they're proper songs with coherent lyrics... Not "oh the stardust, ziggy..."

[TheCozybear65]

the first glam mega-star

[thenobs123]

brings back memories

[charliebe28]

Randy Rhoads had admitted that his hair and stage-clothes styles were intentionally based on Bowie`s guitarist Mick Ronson. Looking at this clip, I can certainly see the similarities.

[Eels88ya]

Manson of the 70's

[Xasthur20]

whats on that dudes face with the black hair?gray lambchops lol.David bowie kicks ass

[WhiteBoy41]

Love to Watch Rono Play !!

[iluvchubbles]

[Eliya1995]

[HelenLPorter]

[loljustice31]

[aliceelsa]

May David Bowies songs be remembered for all eternity...

[gwyn0359]

@bridgettebird_ does this answer your question

[marchel26666]

@gwyn0359 toch wel

[TenthBlackRose]

he was 24 in 1972...

[calculatorINSTINCTS]

to think he was 19/20 in this video <3

[TheFoxSummoner]

"We can sparkle" His inner Jareth came out XD

[tbsva152]

Why could't I be one of the girls dancing in the back? Why was I born in the 90s? :(

[calculatorINSTINCTS]

@tbsva152 at least you weren't born in the naughties ;)

[angelwish2814]

ziggy

[pjames37]

I remember watching this on T.O.T.P. in 1972 with my father commenting about him being feminine. I admit that this clip does look as though it's lifted from a gay version of Star Trek!

[LesIieVanHouten]

tripe

[sixsixxsixxxx]

@LesIieVanHouten anyone named for someone who killed innocent people so viciously really ought to to STFU and get lost

[baby1cham]

Brilliant!!

[iknowuriders]

the real deal



[watchitboy22]

music and drugs best combination

[lordearthblood]

Information is the difference unfortunately - internet or not people tend to seek what they are imediately familiar with. And people ALWAYS go for familiar first, no matter if something older is much better.

Ziggy Stardust is MUCH superior to Mason's pitiful imitations for one, and this show was made before i was born. Yet this is the first time look for Bowie on Youtube, because i'm more metal-oriented musically speaking.

[Grahlalala]

Bolder's sideburns are amazing!!!

[ChaliQ1]

Ronson very underated guitarist early Heavy Metal on some of his stuff.

[BigSeanP]

My dad sold Mick Ronson his first guitar. Mick was at my christening..

[MrDukemeister]

This is my favourite Bowie song.  Criminally underplayed.

[krone900]

@ 2:00 Bill Gates really gets into it.

[ThinkBiker]

a couple of young 20 - somethings have just moved next door to me,

"HUNNY"

"WHAT"

"GET ME MY DAVID BOWIE CD"

[lisajlasvegas108]

Love the beauty of Bowie and Ronson together performing like the Brother's they were... RIP Mick... Rock ON David!! Nice quick look of Trevor Bolder on Bass guitar!!

[conejitoextreme]

very rockin bass playin' love this song

[cyndassprites]

[WA5F]

this was all staged. but I must agree. It's ROCK and ROLL

[stevebaab61]

[jja2112]

Rock and Roll 

[Kwales66]

FUK I just woke up to the real music year

[Samuz8]

[kwsmylie]

It is great to see and hear David with Mick Ronson on guitar again, God rest his soul.

[kwsmylie]

[ManBearBg]

there are no words how to say how awsome this song is, diggaty

[scodellar]

How come that this artistic genius got just 54,147 views and all the present day shit has millions of viewers?

[stealadams]

@scodellar cos real music is dying......

[stealadams]

@stealadams it needs a kick up the ass....

[scodellar]

@stealadams Totally agree!

[bellyboy128]

i want to meet starman :(

[Faria11deeppurplefan]

that bass is beautiful

[watchmebarf]

Rolling Stone just came out with the 100 Greatest Artists issue, this Genius ranked 39th!!!!!! Bullshit. Who the fuck voted? 

[SiddhartaKiwi]

I just can't help wondering if the dorks dancing at the back actually had the slightest idea of what a God they were having in front of their eyes at that moment.

[edenic]

saw the tour paid 50p in !

[patrickandrews]

Sweet!! Love it

[eatingcandy]

aw

[littleme313]

there is no one like bowie.

[357Echelon]

1.22 Bowie do you want to kill me??

[xChaarliz]

Hum... AWESOME ! this is the word ?

[coldironhands1]

how do i get davi dbowie hair?

[NickinFilm]

Thumbs up if you think the guy at 2:00 has just met the Starman

[k1ll3rm1k3]

@NickinFilm ha ha ha

[stardust210264]

This ain´t live, who told you it was? It´s just playback, like always on TV where it is certainly taken from

[KeithyLover18]

LOVE BOWIEEEEEE :D :D :D

[aristeolc]

amazing simple amazing

[sexyhooliganyolanda]

love, love this

[bilhal1]

Bowie is the Man, funny outfits aside. We're talkin' about Lou Reid, Mot the Hoople, Iggy and everyone else who made sure that rock would survive. Punk, Disco, Hip Hop, he got things moving, got people thinking!

[DazJam100]

It's not YouTube that sucks, it's people!

[thenobs123]

hges definitely on fucking drugs. or maybe i am

[elpelagato]

tiipo groso

[gordonbrownsfeet]

Ronson made Bowie he did all the arrangements

[metalhead19931]

@gordonbrownsfeet I wouldn't say he made him. If Bowie wrote shit music it wouldn't matter how it was arranged, it would still be shit. But yes, Mick does deserve more credit than he gets.

[HolstonEllis]

Ronson and Bowie, the best duo in rock history (if you ask me anyhow). This is a gem.

[georgieporgiecomic]

Like is an understatement of universal proportions!

[brazenhead1967]

This track should only be played at 3am while with good friends singing at the top of your voice annoying the neighbours while drinking red wine fine Malt whisky or good Cognac....

[patrickcarroll123]

RIP mick ronson :( i was upset to hear bowie didn't even go to his funeral.

This video is amazing

[eDrifter1]

times have changed.

to bad =(

[nathanicdao]

@1:23 Oh! Us Mr. Bowie? Woo!

[SgtPlmFry]

Dear Mr. David Bowie,

Be my husband.

That is all.

[ssourgirl]

Bowie is genius!

[joeshmoe123456789101]

one of the best writers in history as well as the best 12 string player.

[mefipulate]

LOL wat gay shit is this man hes so fuckken gay lmao

[wizzard1956]

[JRebG]

Bowie is beautiful in this video. Man, I love his style! The interaction between him and Mick is so lovely. :)

[PLAJEBO]

BOWIE NR1

[gallagherandres]

this is fucking amazing

[THEd0gmai2of]

this deserved at least 40,000 views. youtube sucks only porn and shit gets high views

[ReDRuM868]

@THEd0gmai2of The more views it gets the better chance the record company/Nazi's at YouTube/Google will take it down. This video ive seen on YouTube a couple years ago and had over 2 million, hence why it got taken down. YouTubes just wants you to watch their corporate paid sponsor garbage movies, it's no longer a free website anymore you people must realize this. If they made to dramtic of a change and just wiped this stuff all off then YouTube would die.

[fragrit]

@THEd0gmai2of

Caviar for us!

[haricotsvert]

@THEd0gmai2of You know this video is here under another name with 4 Million views, right?

[hearnb1]

@THEd0gmai2of If you add up all of the other post with the same song ... there is Hope for music.

[thlobato]

@THEd0gmai2of your wish comes true. now its got 43250 views

[sarzada]

@THEd0gmai2of porn and shit are lady Gaga and Jusrin Bieber?

[BayPeacelee]

This is a rocking legend, don't dis on the Bowie!

[sam007manu]

This version is so much better than the ones he plays live more recently

[samnninty]

well obviously:L

this is when bowie was at his height
