DAVID BOWIE - SPACE ODDITY (ADHD Reaction) | MY FIRST BOWIE EXPERIENCE AND WOW!!

[@Linda-y9h]

Masterpiece. Loved him so much. That one hurt when he left us. ❤

[@joescott8877]

For real. And Prince just a few months after Bowie! Ye gods! I mused who was more musically brilliant, and I had to choose Prince (I mean, come on now, it's Prince, lol!), but the fact that it was worthy of consideration says a lot about how gigantic Bowie's talent was! And his INTERVIEWS! Oh, how endlessly watchable and wonderful he was!

[@happymethehappyone8300]

"And the stars look very different today"... R.I.P. David 🙏❤️

Great track 🎶 by David Bowie! He’s one-of- a-kind artist and I agree, it does have a Pink Floyd feel to it.🙏 Your vid cheered me up today as I was in a groggy mood(long story), but now I’m all better. Thanks so very much for sharing your reaction and it’s a like and thumbs up.😄👍#davidbowie

[@mirandak3273]

At Last you got to Bowie. You could do a great song of his for each decade until he died in 2016. He’s one of the greats! I love him.

[@mark-nm4tc]

So glad I got to see this legend at Glastonbury 2000, belting out the hits. Bowie is one of those who just was a totally unique one-off, I'd suggest doing his other classics like Life on Mars, Changes, Heroes, Ashes to Ashes and so on. Real musical genius, you'll love him.

[@davidmannion7333]

I was lucky enough to be there too, it was the last year before the super wall went up so the site was definitely over populated! I turned around during Bowie's set to look back and the crowd seemed to go on forever. And then he played Heroes and I was in bits! Special.

[@mark-nm4tc]

@@davidmannion7333 I know...a mate of mine said he'd watch Bowie for a couple of songs and then go over to the acoustic stage to see another act. He turned to look at the crowd - we were stood to the right of the mixing desk - and said 'Oh F***' realising by the time he got out of the crowd & made it to the acoustic stage, he'd have missed most of it, so he remained to watch Bowie😄

[@MusiCatsKing]

Not to mention, Absolute beginners and Aladdin Sane with that 45-bar piano solo.

[@gmoarmycombat20]

This song is eargasmic still to this day. Flashing back at the moment😁 Great one!

[@rominaostrower]

I absolutely loved your reaction! You said near to the end "bring me down" and that was really genius. It made me realize that the music keeps going up, creating tension that is never released, and that was genius. The song rakes you high just as the spaceship keeps going further away from earth without the ability to come back down. I have listened to this song so many times and your reaction made me see that beautiful detail for the first time, thank you!

[@brainsqueezereactions]

😊😊😊😊 Well this comment made me happy!

[@byronmitchell3784]

procol harem, "whiter shade of pale"

[@Ray1969.]

Very few artists have inspired as many other future artists as David Bowie did. Truly a one of a kind!!

[@targetshootr]

He's the first singer I know of who didn't try to hide his accent. We saw him on the first leg of Diamond Dogs in '74. His first four or five albums were rock n roll genius.

[@MDElam]

You say "Pink Floyd vibe," but David Bowie actually performed Pink Floyd's "Arnold Layne" and "Comfortably Numb" (which I think you've already reacted to) with David Gilmour live. Still, Bowie is great; he kept reinventing himself in new and interesting ways!

[@reverts3031]

Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield did a cover of this while he was stationed on the International Space Station. It's a fair cover and worth the watch. (It had David Bowie's approval.)

[@joycepalm9190]

YES!! Hadfield later did an interview about the difficulty in filming that without gravity!

[@yolandagiandrea8051]

I saw that, it was really good.

[@constitutionalpatriot6797]

Context is everything! Imagine hearing it at the point in time when space walks were a relatively new thing, and we were losing astronauts in freak accidents. When you get to 70s music you might want to check out Bowie's "Panic In Detroit" track.

[@miathemalinoisgsdx1320]

Awesome track from an awesome album. Probably my fave because Time was the first Bowie track i ever heard as a 13 or 14 year old.

[@gerrydantone6834]

The Bowie sequel to Space Oddity is "Ashes to Ashes," and it is even BETTER!!

[@roystoyscomics1361]

When we get to the 80s decade you might want to check out Peter Schillings Major Tom (Coming Home) which came out in 1982. It is a song in response to the character in Bowie's Space Oddity. It is an unofficial sequel but details Major Tom losing contact with ground control and heading off into space. 😂

[@mattblatchley2061]

THIS^^^

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Ha, I haven't even started yet and I'm rubbing my hands with glee. But it is shocking me that you haven't already done David bowie. I guess now that I think about it, I don't remember any reactions to it but it sure sounds like something right up your alley. And that guy was a chameleon man he evolved so rapidly, just like the Beatles. Highly influential.

[@rghilino6734]

I envy you having a first listen of the entire Bowie catalog ahead of you.

[@stevenmurano7863]

Arguably the greatest artist of our time!! Dice in to that catslog. But go chronologically

[@lauraallen55]

The David Bowie rabbit hole is probably one of the deepest. He had so many fantastic songs... albums!I don't even know where to start with suggestions. I'll try to start with what I think would send you specifically: Young Americans Under Pressure (with Queen) Fame (with John Lennon) Changes Heroes Suffragette City I'm Afraid Of Americans Rebel Rebel That's as short as I can possibly make a starting list for you. David Bowie is a whole genre unto himself. It still hurts that he's gone.

[@joescott8877]

There's a sort of "sister" song to this: "Ashes to Ashes.," where Bowie sings about Major Tom as a "junkie" among other things (There's your drug reference, heh. Tho I'm not convinced THIS song is about drug use. Maybe.) David Bowie was a sort of miraculous human. Unbelievably talented, incredibly good-looking, an absurdly great voice, highly intelligent, and funny AF to boot! Here he displays all those qualities while (it's just two minutes) he impersonates Mick Jagger! Cheers! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGiQaHuAeL2rZ5I

[@karenbeer9920]

I’ve heard this song loads of times but this is the first time I’ve properly listened to it with headphones on…WOW!!

Don't forget Summer In The City, by Luvin Spoonful...classic 60s

[@tanya41277]

My kids LOVE this song!!!! My 8 year old makes Alexa play it for him allll the time.

[@curtadams7406]

Another of the first songs concerned with space travel is Jethro Tull's "For Michael Collins, Jeffrey and Me" from their "Benefit" album. Michael Collins was a member of the Apollo 11 crew, that was the mission of the first lunar landing, but he was the one who remained in the Command Module while the others descended to the moon's surface and became the first men to walk on the moon,. (I am embarrassed to admit that all of this was lost on me back in the day, it was actually fairly recently that I finally delved into the song's lyrics.) The "Benefit" album was released in 1970, so maybe you will consider this song for your 1970s week.

[@paul-u9e5x]

So happy I found this channel. You're so much like me. Def do Ziggy Stardust.

[@michaelreeder9931]

Great reaction to a really trippy piece of music. The sixties were great (as much as I can remember). Great music in the sixties and seventies. Love your channel, keep it up!

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

I'm not sure our pal, Hector, got what happened to Major Tom in the latter part of the song, because he didn't show any reaction to it. That's not a criticism of him, because it was his first listen and he was understandably lost in the sauce. There's a lot to take in. But it's cool, it just means he'll experience that poignant reveal in a subsequent listen. And when he does, it will enhance his appreciation of the song exponentially. This is one of the 10 best rock/pop songs of all-time.

[@brainsqueezereactions]

Now you have my attention........

[@tanya41277]

​@brainsqueezereactions did you go back and listen...I'd be interested to hear what you think when you figure it out.

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

@@brainsqueezereactions Don't read the lyrics to find what you missed, Hector, just re-listen to the song and pay attention to the lyrics, particularly after the bridge. Everything's enunciated clearly, so you won't need the lyrics in front of you. Discover what it was that eluded you in the story, just through listening.

Check out his eventual sequel to this song called Ashes to Ashes ✌️

[@enchantedwooddesigns3462]

That song was the first of his I discovered on a record in the tiny town library by the jr high and high school in 7th grade 78. I'm pretty sure I wore the heck out of that song I played it so many times ) I went on to find he has so many good songs.

[@Peter-oh3hc]

Ok, now I want a t-shirt that says "it's not t-shirt worthy but it will fucking do"

[@francinescott7405]

Yay, Bowie!! His catalogue is extensive, so settle in. You should listen chronologically, as his music helped pave the way forward. There's a sense of evolution to his music. No two albums are alike - in my opinion - and he was so avant-garde that I'll admit he lost me a couple of times, & I had to 'grow' in order to catch up. Choose anything, it's all good. Thanks.

[@AKICITA]

Great selection to start off with on the Bowie catalogue! I'm not a fan of all his work, (and his range is WIIIIDE!) but there is NO argument that he's a musical ICON!

Love them, as a 60 year old with an extremely eclectic taste in music that spans 60s through to date Its been great watching your reactions to Led Zep , Sabbath, Jimi H and now Bowie.

[@JimBliss23]

Dude, you need to listen to more Bowie. For me there are a small handful of artists who break the mould. They transcend what everyone else around them is doing. And Bowie is right at the top of that list... along with people like Prince, Bjork, The Beatles... to be honest, given my advancing years I never thought I'd find another one of those transcendent artists, but recently Ren has muscled his way to the top table too. Another thing Bowie and Ren have in common is they can sound completely different depending what song you're listening to. Check out Ashes to Ashes for the next installment of Major Tom's trip. And in no particular order, have a listen to "Heroes", Let's Dance, Hearts Filthy Lesson, Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (reprise), Life on Mars?, Five Years... I could go on. And so should you...
