DAVID BOWIE - Starman (1972 UK Top Of The Pops TV Appearance) ~ HIGH QUALITY HQ ~

[elleiramarino]

Mick Ronson produced many of Bowie's early hits and played unmatched lead and rhythm guitar that was key in making Bowie's music what it is today !!!

[peyotecactus]

Space Oddity, Starman, Hallo Spaceboy and Ashes to Ashes The true Bowie fan knows these are all about Major Tom. Peter shilling wrote "Coming Home" as a tribute. Does anybody write songs with real substance today?

[StoneyHempman]

Happy Birthday, Mr. Bowie!

This was such a great time to grow up and love rock music i took this album to show and tell 4 th grade and the teacher played rock and roll suicide for the class it was awesome!

[Razamabaz]

Who gives a fuck about sideburns you idiots.

[Poopingbotham]

I'll bet that the bass player forever regrets going on TOTP with those horrible sideburns

[Pollymedusa18]

@Poopingbotham are they real?

[Poopingbotham]

@Pollymedusa18 It would take 20 years or so to grow sideburns that long, so they're probably clip-ons. Non-the-less, they look very horrible

[Pollymedusa18]

@Poopingbotham so right!

[Uzzerrrname]

One of the best live versions of Starman ( or any song ) ever! Love the Ziggy era!!

[spurv]

@Uzzerrrname It's not live - singback at best : no mikes on the drums. And where's the string section? ;)

[28if]

@spurv rules at the time was sing and record early in the day and lip synch for the actual performance. Got around the live performance union rules

[MrHitCount]

This performance is live AND broke barriers, when Bowie put his arm round Mick Ronson!!

[billybob6000]

1:10.. is that clump of white stuff round that guys neck side burns??

[HarryPowell7]

It's a joke. He was having fun and a laff you see.... all the best chap.

[BigMDS67]

@billybob6000 He's got sideburns sort of like a Ronin Samurai.
