According to Wikipedia, Bowie was partially inspired to write this song after hearing of the Chernobyl disaster while in Switzerland shortly after the initial incident. Can't say I hear much of the resemblance outside the 2nd verse, but it's an interesting tidbit nonetheless. "I felt a warm warm breeze That melted metal and steel I got a bad migraine That lasted three long years And the pills that I took Made my fingers disappear"

@dars52292 жыл бұрын
I can hear some of it, yeah. The warm "breeze" that melted metal and steel, and being made to take pills. I think it's the third verse that most suits. The "talented child" that came to live in their town is the power of atomic energy. "We never bothered to scream when your mask fell off" = when the core exploded, the shield/mask fell off. Locals didn't scream/panic because they didn't know they were already dead.

Technically not a mullet, his hair is just long layed feathered cut. A mullet was when guys had the top to the ears feathered like a short hair cut and the back was long and mostly one length. If Bowie's hair was all over a bit longer and fuller it would be a shag, mostly worn by women at the time. Women like Joan Jet wore a short spiky shag usually black was the color of choice.

I heard this for the first time recently on a radio show called 'Forgotten 80s' and really liked it. I don't know why it's obscure/forgotten when it's so catchy with a great dance beat. The only 80s Bowie songs played on standard radio are 'Let's Dance' (which seems to be on a loop) or occasionally 'Ashes to Ashes'. I like uncovering 80s gems, but it's surprising that even someone as iconic as Bowie has songs that you rarely hear anymore.

Fun fact: Peter Frampton can be seen at 1:04, 2:21, 2:26, 3:08, 3:16, and various other points in the background of this music video. He actually played lead guitar on most of the songs on the album this song is from, Never Let Me Down, and the subsequent Glass Spider tour. Many of the theatrics done in shows on that tour were similar to those done in this video, even including Peter not really being involved and just playing guitar to the side. He _did,_ however, sing lead vocals on the chorus of "Sons of the Silent Age" from Bowie's _Heroes_ album, and he played an absolutely killer solo during "Loving the Alien".

NEVER LET ME DOWN IS HIS BEST ALBUM

from wikipedia, something bowie said in 1995 about this album: "It was such an awful album. I've gotten to a place now where I'm not very judgmental about myself. I put out what I do, whether it's in visual arts or in music because I know that everything I do is really heartfelt. Even if it's a failure artistically, it doesn't bother me in the same way that Never Let Me Down bothers me. I really shouldn't have even bothered going into the studio to record it. [laughs] In fact, when I play it, I wonder if I did sometimes."

I know this isn't a popular opinion, but I have to agree with you. Never Let Me Down is my favorite Bowie album, too. Especially this song does it for me. :)

never heard any of these songs on the radio or anything my entire life. stumbled on Glass Spider one day. eventually listened to the entire Never Let Me Down album. and have enjoyed every. single. song. on it ever since. Especially Zeroes. Beat of your Drum

@@saabturbografx I really enjoy Zeroes, Glass Spider and Bang, Bang. Believe it or not, I only got into David Bowie through Iggy Pop. They were often collaborating and writing songs together. I wish more people would recognize and appreciate this album, but at the end of the day all that matters is what we, ourselves, think of it. :)

I think 🤔 this is one of the best tours Bowie ever did, he was never afraid to push the boundaries; a lot of people slated it, but I think 🤔 it was amazing and he looked gorgeous, as usual! :) ;)

When I was twenty years old I bought a watch and later saw in this video David had the same one. That made my day! Always remembered that.

It’s sad that I tear up watching this video, when I was younger (oh god) I thought they were actually harming him. I was so naive and so young, to realize this would later be one of my many favorites in video style and in general. I don’t think I’d be the person I am today if it weren’t for my mum who told me my first song was China girl and how I’d dance around the house. I honestly don’t think I’d be alive today if it weren’t for Bowie, he was more on the father figure side but also more like my overall obsession but music soulmate. I don’t know what I’d do honestly if I did listen to 64+ songs I enjoy from him.
