David Bowie - Klaus Nomi - Man Who Sold the World

[@WootTootZoot]

I worked event security at a concert in LA when David Bowie was touring with Klaus Nomi. Before the show there were a lot of people standing around talking and wanting to get to David Bowie. But, in all the frenzy, I watched Klaus step back, look around and began to talk to the staff that was working there. The caterers, the stage hands, and even me. I found him to be one of the most engaging interesting people to talk to. He was a warm, humble and openly friendly person. He was a very approachable and nice person and I have always remembered him and his friendliness to me and my co-workers with great fondness.

[@philatio1744]

WootTootZoot Oh man, that sounds incredible. Is here anything else you recall from that era?

I’ve heard very little about Klaus... but it’s always this. He’s a secret treasure.

[@Zowie39]

I was a 12 year old odd ball of a tomboy and me and my sis snuck (sp!) down to the basement to watch SNL on this airing. My life changed even before David Bowie finished his performance! I had finally found where I fit in! I'm 53 years old and I have been a hard-wired , die-hard, obsessed in all things Bowie fan since. It took till the internet to find this rare footage. And I learned that was Klaus Nomi,and so I started listening to him and remember the articles of when David Bowie approached him to do this. That was his style Bowie liked with the suit. Klaus has an almost ethereal voice that was of no other. Oh! If I was to have one wish and that would to go back in time of the early 70's and be apart of that whole New York City scene would be just electric! By the time I had learned about Klaus Nomi was too late. Sadly one of the first performers to die of AIDS and even more tragic not giving enough exposure for more to enjoy. So I am like the rest of these good folks saying "Tell me more" WootTootZoot!!!!! Cant leave us hanging!!!

Wonder if Kurt Cobain saw and was inspired by this performance?

[@lowe-quay-shush]

@@thomasturner8064 FYI David Bowie hired both of them, gave them a few thousand dollars for outfits for this song. He said he was going to be dressed up 'Bauhaus'. They went to Henri Bendel and found the red and/or black Thierry Mugler outfits with leggings for $100 each.

[@thomasturner8064]

@@lowe-quay-shush They did a great job on this and TVC15 from the same show. I heard that Bowie had only very recently met them in NYC.

[@melizmatea]

But the entire thing was his vision. And his arrangement. He always knew what he wanted. He loved getting input, but ultimately it was all his. They were fabulous.

[@joshuayeager3686]

Wish more people would give recognition to Joey Arias, the amazingly talented singer in red, that was best friends with Klaus Nomi. The 2 met Bowie at a dinner event and found out he was a big fan of the both of them as well. This ended up being their only collaboration although they wanted to do more. Joey Arias is still alive and does great shows to this day. He’s such a talent.

[@suchapill3077]

That is great to know. I will check his videos. On Vimeo someone said. Thanks.

[@indiesindie1984]

And Joey Arias too!

[@Lownly1]

And Joey Arias!

[@briteness]

At 0:39, when the background vocals first kick in, the harmony and general sound immediately reminded me of Blackstar. Then I realized that they were singing, "I thought you died alone." Dying alone is, of course, is the theme of Blackstar. I think it likely that Bowie was remembering this SNL performance when he wrote Blackstar.

[@zillatov.v550]

Blackstar has a lot of mysteries regarding if bowie himself was trying to pay some type of tribute to his past Like when bowie performed with marc bolan and then at the end there is a short cartoon-styled animation of the audience applauding and one of people sitting there is wearing a white shirt with the blackstar symbol to it And also at the end of the lazarus video bowie wears some black and white striped clothes which are the same clothes he wore in a photo session for the man who fell to earth which is eve n more scarier if you notice that blackstar released in 2016 and the movie is from 1976 The song "blackstar" itself seems for me very similar to station to station and both are 10 minutes long

[@michaelwilson2340]

Klaus needs to have more recognition. A box set would be nice.

[@martinarg101]

Just 2 albums and some songs, and they are hard to find and very expensive

[@kennethlatham3133]

You know what else would be nice? If some *sshole hadn't come along and hacked up this performance with a pile of unnecessary clips.

[@josesilva2050]

👏👏👏👏👏👏🥇👍🤗Thanks, Thanks, Thanks 😊 You Are Rigth 1000%.

[@AndreaDelleStelle]

Klaus Nomi was one of the most gifted and talented vocalist. I feel his background vocals here actually eclipsed alot of what Bowie was serving in that moment.

[@playitstrange129]

I don’t think there’s enough material for a boxset. But I get what you mean. He’s amazing.

[@adrienneladd8375]

Klaus and Joey certainly add a bunch to this version, but I also want to point out how the lack of distortion on Bowie's voice in this version really adds something as well. Rest in Peace, Klaus and David.

[@JesusGomez-ob2qt]

This Version is like if the song was written for "Heroes" or "Lodger".. I love it

[@ashurdarkstarr6962]

Mysterious and haunting. My favorite version of the song, by far. Nomi makes it even better, he should have collaborated more with Bowie

[@TheWilliambrew]

Very well said. I find it simply transporting and otherworldly; Nomi sends it into a whole new dimension. David is in immaculate form. Really just kinda perfection here on earth. Thank you for your comment.

[@1Cortexiphan]

This version is so great because of how much Klaus Nomi and Joey Arias added to it. Near the end Klaus belts out vocals so powerful they could’ve overtaken Bowie if he wanted to but he did just enough to elevate the song. And Bowie does his best to keep up with both of them and it makes his performance all the more better for it. It’s probably my favorite version of the song.

[@DeaconShadow]

A perfectly restrained performance.

[@drexlerjohn3822]

A perfect example of how they serve the song. Even with such skill and proficiency, these 3 artists, along with the backing band, keep their parts of the performance in check, to ensure each element of the song is present.

[@emtee4564]

I like your comment, but David didn’t didn’t have to try and keep up with anyone, ever... he had a gorgeous voice✨

[@jamesfisher1858]

What a great opportunity for them all to work together. I agree that this version is the best I have never seen it.. thanks for this..... Klaus is under rated and you appreciated him after he died and bowie was as eccentric as him but more excepted... in main stream

[@mizzury54]

Bowie isn't attempting to keep up with anybody. He is simply performing the song as Bowie does.

Klaus Nomi was amazing. So sad he passed way too early. I can’t imagine what his influence on music would have been in the last 20 years.
