David Bowie - SLOW BURN - Live By Request 2002 - HQ

BOWIE-ALCHEMY: the existential emptiness in a full singing, warm, wraparound.

[@txtsmpl]

As all Bowiesongs, this one is one of the Bowies most best best songs.

[@matteomarchese9771]

i will never get over the fact he's really gone. fuck, it's strange. he was like family

[@tylerpurrden]

Yeah it's still not any easier, still miss him every day 💝

[@kimcason8764]

Ditto. Just can't get over the Fact he's gone..! 8 yrs or so, now. And it Breaks my Heart. That there will be no more releases to test our minds. He was always Twisting and Turning his Style..! I found, as he got older his work just got Better.! Mssing him Daily..! Rip. David Bowie. Gone but Not Forgotten. 😢 Cheer All. 😎

@@kimcason8764 oh give over

[@BreakingGlass77]

I heard a rumour that during "Live By Request", the most requested song was actually "The Laughing Gnome" but Bowie refused to play it.

[@DJSantiagosworld]

BreakingGlass77 Why?

[@samley2691]

DJ Santiago Do you really need to ask why he didn’t want to play that? Haha

[@elliotdobson7996]

@@DJSantiagosworld I know this is very late but I found out recently why. So apparently he was more than willing to do the song. He was going to do it in a velvet underground style, but he found out that nme had been trying to get everyone to use their vote on laughing gnome and so he was annoyed that they influenced it

[@DJSantiagosworld]

@@elliotdobson7996 thanks. I’m an aspiring musician and hopefully can reach Bowie’s stature

[@Stephuzz]

@@elliotdobson7996 wow. i hate nme now

[@fgpfallen]

One of his best Songs. His voice is amazing!

[@samsmith4216]

One of Bowie's best...

[@howdoiturnssj3]

EVERY bowie song is one of the best.

[@23igna]

I agree. Heathen is an incredible album

[@jancoetzee8650]

This song captures getting old perfectly

[@jpb9481]

The lyrics are nothing about getting old though

[@thegirlinquestion]

@@jpb9481sometimes music makes you feel a type of way, even if the song isn’t about that feeling

[@kimcason8764]

Yep, dont I know it. I first saw him in the early 70's. At the Age of 17/18 ish. He Blew my mind, but I came home thinking, I was NOT so Odd after all..! Now approaching my 68yr. it Just seems wrong that he's gone..😢 But the 1 up to that, is it may not be long before I join him..! Tickets would have to be Free in Heven, right..?😇 And if in Hell, worth my Soul..! 😈

[@TerryR67]

These are the nights.. These are the darkest of all..

[@amandahugandkiss8011]

I miss him so damn much! ⚡🌠

[@Gismum]

one of the greatest singer of all times

[@jans2887]

You're confusing "favorite" with "greatest"

[@nathanmahoney9365]

He has so many best performances. He killed this one, amazing voice.

[@laurenmai2282]

Just listen...thats pure vocal....xx

[@fotonomad69]

And here we are, at the centre of it all.......pure genius. Miss you so much David.

[@brendan680]

One of the things I have loved about Bowie since '71 is the clarity of his vocals and he never lets us down !!

[@pattycassiani1352]

Lui non canta....lui interpreta ...e per questo ogni canzone è un' emozione...love Bowie forever

[@yvesdu6943]

Aux jeunes générations, voici ce qu'est une vraie Superstar.

[@jeremymitchell995]

This is my absolute favourite Bowie song but one never hears it on the radio....Townsend's guitar (not during this live show obviously) is completely sublime.

[@markmcglone2871]

R.I.P. David Bowie - A master of his craft.

[@mercedyzmarieguion292]

Love this version. The " sound" is better here than on the album version in my humble opinion. I've noticed that "B" sings live performances of his songs with more gusto than on recorded versions. This is my opinion. To me "B" comes alive during live performances. Imho Bowie is the ORIGINAL "B" not Beyonce.

[@scottkaye7932]

Over and over,year after year he killed it.this jam, awesome!! R.I.P Thin White Duke.I miss you David.

[@jabelspector]

the entire band is fantastic especially drums. amazing performance

[@kiers1970]

Bowie is amazing. Not just his performance and presence. The superb musicians that accompanied him. It's so clear he valued them so much.

[@user-jd4oq6vj8w]

One of the best. David for ever and ever.....

What a beauty,the man and his music

[@lorithurber9744]

with a tear in my eye a as he takes to the sky what a beautiful sight to see his wings spread wide as he circles around almost as if he is waving at me with a tear in my eye and my hand in the air I wave back still missed

Simplemente es difícil elegir una canción favorita del Duke Blanco, no hay canción de David Bowie que no disfrute ... desde Andy Warhol, There is a happy land, hasta blackstar, slow burn...

[@stephanecanoen688]

excellent

[@mapesolo]

Con esta canción arrancó mi curiosidad por todo su trabajo... gracias por tanto starman, por tanto! David Bowie para siempre!

[@marciafllima7091]

Mr Bowie always marvelous!

[@Beto8starwalker]

Genio. Gran voz. Gran actor. QEPD

[@theMusicofmyLife1]

Pure silk, which wraps almost impalpable, but reaches the heart, up to scratching without doing evil... yet touches it and you ... you feel troubled by following the sinuous waves of a timbre so caressing... by a modulation so rich in nuances, suspended between the senses and the incorporeal state. You are sad and happy at the same time. Pure Art! Many thanks.

[@gregarioustumours2397]

Heathen is an amazing album and this track sticks out. Bowie and his band are aces!

[@garrold7123]

Such a pity no one ever requested strangers when we meet or tried to request other songs from the 60s instead of laughing gnome, because he simply wouldn't do that. What about c'est la vie? These requests are so stages

James Joyce, "Ulysses". Maybe ... Thanks for watching and comment.

Townshend was here

[@franzerendeiro5146]

LunaMoth Musical Entity i would too if my guitarist sucked that badly

[@themagnanimous1246]

@@legostudios6017 he doesn't suck he just isnt playing parts that fit very well

[@saraivatoledo1842]

Earl Slick killing it. What Townshend did in the studio is superior imho , but , this is live and the former pulls a performance such as this ? Impressive .

[@richardedson816]

killer guitar-who is this guy?

[@MrGeirPaulsen]

Earl Slick... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Slick

[@tw9535]

How could someone as great as Bowie not be able to find a competent guitarist? The overall performance definitely gained momentum, though.

[@simonbeck7108]

It's not easy duplicating Pete Townshend from the Who - he did the studio recording... If Slick turned the guitar up to the volume level Pete had in the studio to get those great loud overtones it would be louder than the rest of the band - So Slick had to do something else that Townshend... you can't always recreate everything from the record to a live-setting.

[@adriankaill9413]

He's no Pete Townshend...

[@PyrrhusBrin]

He's doing his best, not the easiest to replicate the work that Pete Townshend did.

[@phartweg3324]

Slow burn - my favourite Bowie song. Unfortunately, it could also be applied to the demise of democracy everywhere....but maybe he knew something that we did not.

[@ice_fox]

that guitarist sure destroyed the song's cool intro =(

[@taff6987]

I noticed that right away too! I'm sure the keyboard player went down a note to try and fix it. The intro with guitar is one of the highs of this track. Guess we not perfect beings.

[@robertoafernandezr7776]

I think that guitar was originally done by Pete Townshend.. So I guess even when he's said before that he doesn't know how to solo, he does indeed...

[@ericabowie7851]

erica bowie - lubs you too and I want you to come and get me asap. Looking forward to holding you in my arms again. I know I'm your sister and that you're Neville Goddard. Send me an email as soon as the spirit moves you. Love, E.

[@AmnDKO]

Guitarist is a lousy replacement for Pete Townshend.

[@philipnewton]

Earl's great but it isn't Pete's awesome version

[@robertoafernandezr7776]

The piano is WAY too loud and horrible!! It shouldn't go there!
