DAVID BOWIE - CHINA GIRL | ICONIC 80s HIT l REACTION & REVIEW! 🎶

[@DJBilodeau]

You know Philip I was going to get hooked on anything Bowie. Nice later career song for Bowie-looking forward to your reaction!

[@patriciacanadiansenior8130]

That's a favourite! You have a great smile!

[@DJBilodeau]

Yeah, this was a great program. And a nice unexpected surprise as well!

I haven't heard this version before - thanks Phil.👍 Nile Rodgers was the producer for this and the Let's Dance Album. He is one of the founder members of Chic - legendary 70s funk/disco act.

And I'm glad you had me take another look at this (overlooked by me) song by Bowie. That was amazing!

[@DJBilodeau]

Iggy Pop was something of a protege of David Bowie's. Iggy was from Ypsilanti, Michigan, where I lived myself for a number of years.

[@DJBilodeau]

Kudos to whoever made the suggestion for this song!

For Bowie soul and funk: Try cuts from Bowie's Young Americans album with Luther Vandross back-up singers to die for and David Sanborn on killer alto saxophone, like Somebody Up There Likes Me, Win, Fascination, Right and Can You Hear Me. [Find Luther and David both on Dick Cavett talk-show video.clip..also see KZbin video of Soul Train with Bowie doing Fame and Golden Years singles] ...Also guitarist Carlos Alomar funk on Secret Life of Arabia (Heroes album). … Sample his Let’s Dance album produced by Chic’s Nile Rogers (all good!). From Station to Station album: Stay. Also Black Tie, White Noise with Al B. Sure.…Tonight with Tina Turner (also with him in one of her concert videos on KZbin)... Knock on Wood and Here Today, Gone Tomorrow (Ohio Players) (from David Live in Philadelphia (extended version), 1975). “1984” (from Diamond Dogs album. Reminds me of “Shaft.” Later recorded by Tina Turner on her Private Dancer album)...from the soundtrack to the kids film, Labyrinth: “Underground” (w/ Black choir) and “Magic Dance.” A friend of the Black community -Bowie complained to MTV about Black videos being relegated to early morning broadcasts. Married to Somali super-model Iman.

It would be awesome if you reacted to the Sweet Thing suite! It's three songs that flow into each other. A postapocalyptic epic!

To the real hard core Bowie fans. . .who's playing lead guitar on this track?

[@anthonymckeever6626]

It's Stevie Ray Vaughan playing lead guitar in the middle section, very distinctive. He played on the Lets Dance album and was originally mean to play live on tour with Bowie, but didn't.

@@anthonymckeever6626 that's what I thought, but I do appreciate your confirmation!
