Bowie won a Grammy for this short film. I love the in jokes and surreal touches. When Bowie committed to a project, the result was always quality.

How very true. Bowie is amazing here, as just about always. It also helps that the project was directed by Julien Temple, the prolific music video director for the Sex Pistols, Judas Priest, Culture Club and so many other prominent artists.

Holy crap this is amazing. I've seen long storytelling music videos before, but to see a pioneering one from the great David Bowie makes you see how he really had an impact in the music industry. He was so innovative! I loved both his characters. The awkward David was such a sweetheart, and Screaming Lord Byron was dazzling (but you also had a soft spot for him since you could see how troubled he was offstage). Then we had awkward David breaking the fourth wall and that bit just made me laugh. Bowie is a treasure.

Not trying to argue but while Bowie did a lot of innovative shit I fail to see why this is one of them. This isn't even a longform music video, it's literally a short film with a extended music sequence that was later edited out to be used as a music video. This was also like '84 when Michael Nesmith did it 5 years before and did it bigger/better with his elephant video album.... ...he also kinda invented MTV but since the media tells everyone The Monkeees are a joke stuft like that gets ignored

+Levine2001 Yep, I always felt David was underrated as an actor--just look at The Prestige. If I hadn't known going in that this was David Bowie playing Tesla, I wouldn't have recognized him--he disappeared into the role that perfectly. Then there was that run onstage as The Elephant Man (which, unfortunately, was never completely recorded), and this--where he's so convincing both as the rock star who's a parody of himself, and the awkward everyman. If he'd chosen to focus on acting and not singing, we might be mourning Sir David Bowie of the Royal Shakespeare Company, every bit as respected as Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart.

When this song was released I immediately loved it. On the weekend music shows they used to play Blue Jean over and over, which I never tired of. And on the odd special occasions, we got to see the extended version which ran for nearly six minutes. I absolutely love Bowie in this. Despite being a singer first and foremost, I thought he was a bloody great actor also. This extended extended short movie only proves it. I saw him live here in Brisbane in 2004 and absolutely loved every second of that concert. Such a shame we lost him so early. I truly think if he were still alive, he would still be making fantastic music

David Bowie was such a creative and talented person. He was a musician, writer, painter, actor and I understand he sculpted as well. Talent that he possessed is rare in today’s world.

The Two Bowies reminds me of what Iman said about meeting and marrying Bowie. She said she married David Jones; David Bowie was this guy up on stage. He shows those two very different personas so well in this video.

God, I remember when this video premiered on MTV back in 1984...has it really been 35 years? I was only just 16 yrs old when it debuted. Here's to better days...and of course to Screaming Lord Byron...and Vic.

Not just a musician but actor as well. To say David Bowie isn't talented is saying Bruce Lee can't fight or Michael Jordon can't slam dunk.
