Robert Fripp’s guitarwork in this Classic Bowie song is superb. BUT it is not Fripp in the video playing, it is a young G.E. Smith standing on that small stage playing the Telecaster. He was in the Saturday Night Live band for many years, played with Darryl Hall&John Oates and for some years even in Bob Dylan’s band.

Fun fact: Many of the "dance moves" used in this video are re-used in later Bowie videos. The 'piano-playing' move at 1:02 and 2:51 is used in the "Blackstar" video at 2:10 and various other points throughout. The move where he suddenly touches the ground at 0:32 is used in the "Ashes to Ashes" video at 1:11, while Bowie and a couple of women are walking in front of a bulldozer. (Yes, you're missing context.) I'd love to hear other examples of moves in this video used in other ones if anyone knows of some.

Wow, I had no idea Slow Burn was connected to Space Oddity & Ashes since I haven't seen the video. Hopefully that one gets uploaded soon, since it has yet to be on an official channel. The lyrics in the Pet Shop Boys remix of Hallo Spaceboy also have connections to Major Tom, and the 'clown' from Ashes appears in the shortened video for "Love is Lost". Bowie really liked keeping his characters intertwined.

He later said that he went over to David and told him it was a thrill to meet him, and he gave him a pat on the back saying "Nice work mate."

I almost forgot that David Bowie did this classic. Some say he was ahead of his time. I say he was right on time. In a generation that needed to see what versatility, creativity, and originality should look and sound like. Both he and Prince personified images that people probably felt made them different. In their cases, different was cool.

Lyrics: There's a brand new dance But I don't know its name That people from bad homes Do again and again It's big and it's bland Full of tension and fear They do it over there But we don't do it here Fashion, turn to the left Fashion, turn to the right Ooh fashion We are the goon squad and we're coming to town Beep-beep, beep-beep Listen to me, don't listen to me Talk to me, don't talk to me Dance with me, don't dance with me No Beep-beep There's a brand new talk But it's not very clear, ooh bop That people from good homes Are talking this year, ooh bop, fashion It's loud and it's tasteless I've not heard it before, ooh bop You shout it while you're dancing On the dance floor, ooh bop, fashion Fashion, turn to the left Fashion (Right) Fashion We are the goon squad and we're coming to town Beep-beep Listen to me, don't listen to me Talk to me, don't talk to me Dance with me, don't dance with me No Beep-beep, beep beep Ooh bop, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do Fa fa fa fa fashion Ooh bop, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do Fa fa fa fa fashion, la-la-la-la la la la la Ooh bop, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do Fa fa fa fa fashion Ooh bop, do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do Fa fa fa fa fashion, la-la-la-la la la la la

I always thought this song was a warning about Fascism coming back into popularity which it seems to do every 20 years or so. Suddenly the Goon Squad comes to town and to power and your marching off to War. What for? Who knows? They made up an Enemy for you to go die for fighting them. It’s Problem. Dilemma. Solution. George Orwell wrote in his classic book 1984 that the Party in power kept changing the enemy back and forth depending on the current climate. It was a state of constant War which you’re never meant to win. Your just supposed to train and march off to War and Die! You were basically being manipulated and used 24/7. Fascism back in Fashion.

He actually wrote it as a reaction to the "Blitz" movement of the late 1970s in post-punk London. Blitz was like a rebirth of glam, with all the bands trying to outdo each other in the fashion department. It featured bands like early Spandau Ballet, Visage, and Midge Ure-era Ultravox. It was very much a precursor to the New Romantic sounds of the early 1980s.

@@ngc-fo5te He wasn't good looking in a usual sense, that's for sure. I think the reason why so many people were attracted to him anyway is because they found him 'interesting' rather than 'handsome'. The eyes and the androgynous look, and his fashion style. He stood out and was unashamed of his weirdness. Confidence always draws people people in. Also, he had a beautiful voice, charming personality and a unique sense of humour.

Bowie was supposedly fascinated by G.E.'s "weird" face. G.E.'s also in the "Station to Station" concert scene of the German _Christiane F._ movie. Plus, Bowie had planned to tour in 1981 for this album, after his run with _The Elephant Man_ on Broadway ended. He went on the Tonight Show to perform "Life On Mars" and "Ashes To Ashes" with what would have been the touring band (including G.E.). Of course, that tour didn't happen because of David freaking out about Lennon's murder (David was, by some accounts, Target #2), so G.E. went on to work with Hall & Oates in 1981 while David calmed down in Switzerland. Isn't that something? If Lennon hadn't been killed, there probably wouldn't've been "Under Pressure", because David would've been on tour promoting the "Scary Monsters" album. I think he would've rather had his good friend John back over a hit song any day of the week.
