DAVID BOWIE - SCARY MONSTERS (and super creeps) - LIVE 1997

[@pattycassiani1352]

Simply the best...wonderful wonderful Bowie...

[@playwithastar]

Absolutely shareable: the stylistic method leaps to the eyes of anyone. Another peculiar characteristic of Bowie, for me, is that one to deal with burning issues, culturally complex, communicated in the form of rebellious provocative Rock and, thanks to his ingenious talent, with such a breath of lightness that always leads to smile, exorcising the human fear, thus inviting to rediscover in oneself the energy for a new creativity of the thought. Kisses to your inner child!

the best live version of this song i've heard. Reeves tears it up

[@queenofgoblings]

I can never get enough of this song. This performance is especially powerful and David is so sexy with the half-opened shirt and the mohawk hair cut...Thank you so much for sharing, Fiorella!

Reeves is a BADASS

[@playwithastar]

Many thanks! I'm glad for the mutual attention between our channels that have at least two common denominators: the endless love for Rock and great Artists (longtime friends) who have worked together. Ha ha, I thought of the funny monsters Muppets by Labyrinth movie, to point out the irony of the bottom in this overwhelming cascade of notes, "monsters" that creep and float in several human fears...

and a big and warm embrace to your inner child, too, my friend!

Awesome live! Many thanks for sharing! Wow!

"Paganini does not repeat" and Mozart was the expert in the "theme with variations". That´s the reason why i call Bowie "the XXth century Mozart" although since he released "The next day" album, i have doubts...maybe he is now "the XXth and XXIst century Mozart". ! My inner child loves horror movies, maybe that´s the reason why i feel so happy and energizied by this song. Namaste, Fiorella!

Thank you so much for this quote, which I share: an authentic musical jewel, a historic piece of one of the guitar's magicians most original and sophisticated. In reality and fortunately, it's very hard qualify what are the best solos because they are so many, but here I just wanted to point out the carpet of the rhythmic movement on which the song flows as to portray the unceasing way (almost obsessive) wherewith "monsters" of the fears may reveal themselves. Many thanks for watching.

Bowie rips this song a new Rsole! Best version i've heard of this song.

[@ispinimor1958]

Love it

[@Boris665quiteevil]

Elegantly brilliant album, as is Heroes. His guitar notes are used like lyrics.

[@nomadtraveller100]

Wow I like the way the title floated by. Cool Upload. Adding to my playlists.

[@playwithastar]

As we know, David has always invented different interpretations of the same piece of music, perfectly in line with the saying "Paganini does not repeat", haha​​. This one, in addition to being very powerful as you say, it's also one of those moments in which Bowie gives more space to the spontaneous child that is within him, with amusing theatrical gestures (eg 2:27 - 3:04 - 5:10) maybe to emphasize those fears dragged from childhood. As he has great fun, also us! Many thanks Rita dear.

Simply one of the most awesome performances ever and why only 5 mins 25 secs ? You never want this track to stop - the outro should have been at least 2 minutes longer ! Bowie - the coolest.

[@Boris665quiteevil]

Robert Fripp's solo on Babys On Fire is one of my favs. so unique!
