David Bowie-Trent Reznor-I'm afraid of Americans

[blueeyes96660]

Have loved you both for a looooong time now. Keep Rockin!!

[YourWorshipLeia]

I am the only one that would do anything to sing with David Bowie?

[baccararose256]

Make love to me Ziggy Stardust!! I take you home, make you fish bowel soup!!

[Carefree0101]

Why is Trent being his cab-driver a bad thing? Do you know how GLAD I'd be if I looked and TR was my cabbie? Gotta keep the dream alive.

[hypnodance]

@Carefree0101 Well, Trent chases David throughout the video, and when David tries to escape there Trent is. It's like the Tom & Jerry cartoons where someone tries to escape someone only to find them in the most unlikely places. Only difference is, here it's not funny.

[TheFoxSummoner]

Maybe he was just chasing David because he wants his autograph? I mean that's what I would do o-o

[sharonbowie]

I want David Bowie!

[wblstudios]

If mid 90's Trent Reznor was chasing me with an invisible gun, I'd probably do the same damn thing.

[dcd442]

just a case of...scary monsters, and super creeps.

[KiddKashTV]

@fashionkiddkash i grew up on this song

[evermoreeternal]

you know for as old as he is bowie dont look too bad

[laloserratos]

Reznor & Bowie, the best combination, even better than Sonny & Cher hahaha

[dakotac81]

is there a live version of this song with both trent and david?

[coffeegirl18]

@dakotac81 I'm not sure but at the NINJA concert NIN sang it.

[MultiFinlayson]

Great Song!

[kjsway]

I like the ending because it says GOD is un-American so that means what are you afraid of ?

[daemonette73]

Definitely one of my favourite collaborations....love the track, the video, the Bowie and the Reznor :)

[Cubarted]

If Trent chased me, i'd turn around and give him a hug ;)

[swtpea57]

@Cubarted

I'd buy him a drink at the pub:)

[CidLorh]

@Cubarted I'd put his penis in and around my mouth(:

[bionitroop]

@Cubarted not gonna lie, I would probably hump his leg.

[marc08110]

CLAPTON AIN'T GOD.......BOWIE IS GOD.....

[marc08110]

@marc08110 AND REZNOR IS A GENIOUS

[marc08110]

Respond to this video...  CLAPTON,,,, AIN'T GOD.....BOWIE IS GOD & REZNOR IS A GENIOUS

[ofalltheranters]

Run, David Bowie, run!

[juiceman38804]

everyone should check out the music video with american psycho to this song

its a good

[upaboveit76]

Love that this song shows all the threats as people with some version of guns. Of course there is no correlation between the number of gun deaths and the number of weapons in our country right?

[swtpea57]

@upaboveit76 The song is about Paranoia

[Etatdesiege1979]

@swtpea57 in the US right?

[WoodlandRavah]

@upaboveit76

"Of course there is no correlation between the number of gun deaths and the number of weapons in our country right?"

Honestly when you look at the numbers a well armed populace has lower levels of gun deaths and lower levels of crime. Counterintuitive, I know, but essentially when you outlaw guns only outlaws will have guns. Look at the 3rd world, is it that bad because everyones armed or because a few a-holes are?

[paintballkid454]

@upaboveit76 people kill people no matter what, regardless of the amount of publicly available weapons. Look at Britain, they have tight anit-gun laws, but lots of murders (stabbings) still occur. Taking away guns doesnt solve shit, people will always want to kill people. Hell, car accidents kill more people everyday than guns, so by your logic, why don't we outlaw cars?

[FBobby]

@upaboveit76 way to totally misinterperate the video to fit youre own retarded views.

[JokerHuntr]

@upaboveit76 You have a weak soul bro...bitches like you are whats causing the problems in this country

[KisameHoshigaki707]

Trent Reznor stalking David Bowie.

Priceless.

[ancientofways]

I listen to this a lot thanks to you sweet pea!! I'm a Pease myself. <3

[rich107s]

And well he should be...................

[FartFaceJimmy]

The single has some really good remixes on it. I love this!

[thepordage]

worst thing about this sing is the americans they mention in the song aren't ficticious.

[sodcloud]

wow, bowie, eno, and nin. doesn't get much better than that. kind of weird that such a good song first appeared on the soundtrack to a movie as bad as "Showgirls" though

[mkultra138]

I love this video! Great Taxi Driver vibe!

[humandefense]

This song is awesome except the guitar needs a nice heavy base that accompanies it. Or the guitar needs to be stronger like in the "deep" song.

[tutatuta13]

this is one of daria's songs

[stuckondamoment]

Is this a Single Edit or the NIN Mix?

[pokeybadger]

what is this?

[keartan]

Trent rezner remix a david bowie song, with a video!

[armageddon74400]

[woahXgirl94]

[dagger4ureye]

[5767ziegler]

[Splangy1]

I'm an american but thats only cuz of where I was born and I don't like to call myself one

[LothairApoclyane]

i always knew trent reznor loved to help jesus hunt the gays..

[Jayjen35]

Not likely that Reznor would help Jesus do anything....

[nigklr232]

gay is gay

[facefantome]

[nigklr232]

sad thing is everyone in this world wants to be an American!!!!!!!!! lol right to bare arms got to love it..........lawl hahahahahhahahahahahah

[5767ziegler]

[Thlaan]

Dude... Do you know what I would give to have Trent Reznor chase me? .-.

omg.

[PoeticSerendipity1]

@Thlaan hell ya!...dude, I am in accordance with you...man, what I would give to have Trent chase me too...lol *sigh*...

[Koolaidmusicjunkie]

@Thlaan  this. :D

[diaryofthedead]

in the situation that the word fag is being used means liking one of the same sex doesnt necessarily mean it has to be used for guys only

not insulting just sayin

[queenwinterkat]

yeah, i know this, i always say this or that is "gay" but since his comment was based on nothing and with no explanation, i decided to fuck with him a little. shame on me for provoking a kid though.

[diaryofthedead]

lol well hey everyones gotta have some fun right?

[queenwinterkat]

lady, i believe there's a good chance you may be correct.

[beefchainsaw]

there is acutally a 100% chance that i am correct.

[queenwinterkat]

with any luck at all...

[mooncrack]

I never get tired of this video! My two favorite musicians, one stalking the other. Brilliant!

[johnwyre]

bowie is A LEGEND!!!! <3

[DrMabuse06]

We Americans will scare you European pansies. LOL.

This song rocks. Man Bowie is the coolest.

[boysarefun]

god. reznor and bowie are so goddom beautiful.

[yakuza3333]

trent kinda looks like jakie from the game the darkness

[davies545]

im afraid of the ghost of alexander litvinenko

[emilskracic]

Im afraid of Canadians.

[TriciaN85]

Why?  We're so nice.

[Kanavazk]

No we're not.

[swtpea57]

@emilskracic

So am I

Cheers

[queenwinterkat]

i'm afraid of amreicans too!

[dragongt42]

i hate when people only know of the bad things of americans -_- we arent all murderers and crimanals.

[queenwinterkat]

no, just our government, but then again, what gov. isn't? do you realise i'm american?

[swtpea57]

@queenwinterkat

So?

[mrsmcmullen]

I love this song and video concept!!! thanks for posting!

[renatalorbiesky]

I still like it, the man is just awesome!

[ColdLand88]

Bowie looks like T-Bag from Prison Break in this vid.

[pansy0]

:D Or Gary Oldman. But I think he looks great.

[Sophie101]

I agree!

And Trent is devilish! I LOOOVE THIS VID!

[Jayjen35]

Yeah, Reznor is doing he "Travis Bickle" thing!...

[shanic89]

We look bad to the world because we elected Bush not only once but twice! He sucks at foreign diplomacy I would be afraid of us too.

[PunkMartyr]

This vid is pretty much about the shit you see on the 10 o'clock news everyday you shake your head and say oh my god

[lifegardgrll]

Bowie is past 60 and still looks hot as hell....

[RikiGurl]

i would be freaked out if he was chasing me down too...lol...this video is soo true though, the u.s. has been going to hell lately

[pokorn5]

whats this song about

[StickyDoom]

I'd be scared if Trent was stalking me down. Scared and kind of flattered at the same time.

[Kl4pp5tuhl]

You still owe him for that Album you downloaded. He'll chase you down until his PayPal Account sees some cash.

[swtpea57]

@StickyDoom Maybe he would give you a Remix :-)

[9INstyle]

@StickyDoom I'd be scared if he is my taxi driver... =D

[hypnodance]

@9INstyle I know. That scene where Bowie thinks he's escaped Trent, then sees him as the driver? :D

Reminds me of those cartoons where Droopy Dog keeps showing up no matter what the wolf does to escape him...

[ilovestalin]

real great. I particularly like the end. everything is perfect, video and music. and this is really very intelligent.

art with an A

[snoopyfan07]

awesome video never knew these 2 did a video together n i call myself a fan?! great!!!

[heavybarz]

This should be a classic for song and video!

[WikidChild23]

How can a guy Bowie's age be so damn hot?!!

[jcrist]

haha this was about ten years ago tho.

[HAXBACBCEX]

А мне понравилось!!!Прикольная песня!!!ну клип неочень и что?главное песня!!!

[forwardpass]

You know if Trent were chasing Bowie down the road they would both pull their groins and twist their ankles in their fancy shoes before they even made it a block and end getting in a sissy, rock and roll slapfight in the street. They'd probably tussle about 30 sec. before they tired out and then probably would go do heroin after that. You know I'm right.

[shomerflash]

Trent Reznor is quite the buff guy now. He could probably take you down, buddy.

[forwardpass]

Yeah, but...I'm a big wuss. Besides, right before he got to me, I'd grab Bowie by the back of his jacket and yell, "I got him Trent! Here he is!" He'd appreciate that and then we'd both shoot him down with our 'Finger Guns'.

[Masterstalker10]

LOL SIMPLY FANTASTIC

[rainelinden]

My friend thinks Trent looks horrific in this video but I would sooooo do him!

Also, amazing song, some people just take it too seriously. Bowie's obviously being sardonic, just listen to the lyrics: "I'm afraid of Americans, I'm afraid of the WORLD."

The fact that he sees people shooting each other with imaginary guns just shows the paranoia of his persona in the video... Just enjoy the video and don't try to analyse it too deeply.

[kaiserpauline]

i'm not sure he says "god is in america" because it's strange with other lyrics

[PopPsychosis]

I believe he says "God is an American."

It goes with the lyrics. It's as though he's saying he's afraid of God, too. Make sense?

[kaiserpauline]

ok but i found other lyrics on elyrics and he doesn't say 'god'. but now i understand why he could say it and when i listen to this music i understand god.

[static829]

Two great artists in full blend...

[homosapien408]

Who directed this paranoid, truth serum?! There is constant reference to Scorsese's Taxi Driver: the impulsive violence that America represents. Damn, I didn't know Bowie still makes music. Where the fuck have I been?

[hauptberg]

Trent said one of his biggest musical influences was David Bowie

[researcherse]

For whom he isn't?

[DamnationsFlame666]

trent comes out of nowwhere lol

[KINS138]

haha I wouldnt run from trent

[cybawatt]

I love this song, I LOVE it. Never get sick of it.

[swtpea57]

Go for Seven "Bowie"

Trent has his own website up and you can remix

Happy Christmas!

[cybawatt]

I know!  I signed up, downloaded a bunch of stuff. Can't wait to get to work. ^^

[gypsykingmaster]

the best part is the ending! "god is in america." fuckin great lyrics

[rodrigoNIN6]

i can't understand the american irony

[therobidentity]

I love this video. Very surreal. I love how Trent menaces Bowie and Bowie totally freaks out, imagining violence everywhere he looks. Nice touches with the newspaper headline and Trent's cab license.

[therobidentity]

I don't really get the ending with the weirdo parade though. Kind of lost me there....

[adamwalsh]

its a Mexican/Spanish tradition of celebrating the Day Of the Dead.

[therobidentity]

Well, I thought it might be that... I recognized the skeleton and such... I think the Christmas lights covered guy and the guy with the helmet threw me off. I didn't recognize those as being part of Day of the Dead stuff. Maybe that particular parade was more multicultural than I'm used to, I don't know. ;)

[IlluminatusXXX]

Are you freakin nutz? that's awesome.

[therobidentity]

I don't mean to say that it isn't awesome, just that I didn't get it. It kind of came out of nowhere at me and I didn't recognize it as the traditional Day of the Dead celebration.

As to whether or not I'm freakin nutz... the jury's still out. ;)

[leni12369]

I am afraid of Americans in the way they are treating a mother, respectless, inhuman and disgusting. The womans name is Britney Spears. Yes you were listening well. Am I out now?

[adamwalsh]

two talented men.

[absynth909]

I've heard this song a billion times, but never seen the video. And Trent chasing David....HAHAHA! Excellent.

[sjellebellie]

Grrrr I'm afraid I can't help it, but I just luvvvv their dirty faces XD

[cheezpoof93]

Johnny's so awesome.

And creepy.

Good ol' Trent.

[Michikaru]

He he he he, serial rapest fantasticness!

[TrentCobain]

I wish Trent would follow me

[BroKENTOy65]

you're not the only one...

[TrentCobain]

Trent looks great with a goatee

[Syntheticidad]

LOL, Trent and his crazy face!

Perfect ;P

[JamesCrossfield]

Excellent!

[rockaholic1992]

I didn't know Bowie helped Trent do this! Cool.

[GDGspire]

Trent helped Bowie do this you mean? :P

Best musical pairing EVER.

[sslaxx]

So, so true. The versions of Hurt and Reptile they did together were fantastic!

[hellopixiez]

Greatt!!

Trent!

DAViiiid!!

sex symbols!

[Nocholas4sale]

nice video. somewhat
