funny fact...bowie performed this on "soul train" tv show

John Lennon co-wrote this song and is singing some background vocals.

@suz5862 8 ай бұрын

Lennon may have been given a co-writing credit but his contribution was limited to proposing the word “aim” which Bowie changed to “fame”.

Hardly "co-wrote".

You could do Let’s Dance by David Bowie for Funky Friday.

This really was ahead of its time and it definitely predicted a lot of aspects of 80s music. But it still had that mid-70s special kind of vibe to it as well, before all the technology exploded.

Bowie was one of a kind and so is his music. No other artist was making music like this! Sorely missed!! *I was in the 5th grade when this song came out and we were doing "the bump" to this song!! Anyone remember that dance? LOL

I was never really a big Bowie fan, as I was into a different genre of music. However, over the years I've come to appreciate him and song like this and Space Oddity, among others. Nice to see someone hearing this for the first time. Enjoying your channel! ✌🏻💀

This song, Space Oddity & Let's Dance are my all time favorite Bowie songs!

This was the last song on the Young Americans album. Bowie recorded it in his R&B/Soul phase. Definitely check out the song Young Americans, Fascination, Right and Somebody Up There Likes Me, they're all really funky!

This should be interesting. And I think John Lennon of the Beatles collaborated with Elton John on this. They hung out sometimes apparently.

@karenmikalofsky5287 8 ай бұрын

Yes! John Lennon had some of the song writing credits and he is singing the falsetto “fame”. I don’t think Elton John was involved, but I could be wrong.

Ace, i remember hearing this when it was newly released round 1974-75, and saw David in concert. No one else like him. Never will be .

@tiffanyspencer2782 8 ай бұрын

Wow! I never knew John co-wrote & did background vocals. 😂...This was performed live on soul train & the dancers were killin it! 😊 Please react to that. I'm from the 70's & when I watched it I was like wtf? Who is this white dude? It was different & a little weird, but I loved it! This is how David was introduced to me. I'd never seen or heard anything like this. Amazing

David Bowie calls this plastic soul. "Modern Love" - "Golden Years" - "Young Americans" - all great.

@suz5862 8 ай бұрын

There is not one ounce of funk in Modern Love which was written 8 years later after Bowie’s plastic soul period.

@kenlawless7247 8 ай бұрын

You might want to read some reviews of Modern Love Suz. You might be the only one who doesn't hear the soul influence.@@suz5862

David Bowie did Soul Train. He did "Young Americans".

@suz5862 8 ай бұрын

No - the other song he performed was Golden Years.

He reinvented himself so many times -- one of the first to present as androgynous, to wear makeup, costume, assume different personas for his musical style changes. True artist, and apparently a really lovely down-to-earth human -- Changes, Suffragette City, The Jean Genie, Starman, Space Oddity...

This is one of those songs I don’t remember hearing for the first time. It’s always playing I don’t remember it not playing.

The 80s weren't really funky. It got watered down. 60s and 70s had heavy funk, and you can go back to James Brown, P-Funk, Maceo Parker, Ohio Players,etc. This song had that grit...
