Bowie is considered the Father of Glam Rock also called the chameleon always changing. He was well read, an artist, actor, songwriter. He is my favorite solo artist. John Lennon played on this song & come up with Fame & saying it after Bowie. Suggest Let’s Dance 💃 Cat People, Star Man, Blue Jean, Ashes to Ashes. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@williamwallace5857]

It's 'Starman' not 'Star Man'.

[@DJ-bj8ku]

Lennon also told Bowie that glam is just rock n roll with lipstick.

[@williamwallace5857]

@@DJ-bj8ku Lennon said (jokingly) that BOWIE'S music was just rock-n-roll with lipstick on. He wasn't referring to all of the Glam stuff.

[@DJ-bj8ku]

@@williamwallace5857 That’s not what Bowie said in an interview which you can easily find on YT. The obvious reference was to all glam. Why would Lennon make a distinction?

[@williamwallace5857]

@@DJ-bj8ku Just after Lennon died Bowie did a gig where he covered 'Imagine'. Before he sang the song Bowie told the audience that he had asked Lennon what he thought of HIS (i.e. Bowie's) music to which (Bowie says) Lennon replied 'It's just rock-n-roll with lipstick on'. The clip is available here on KZbin. We may have two versions of events.

[@TheOneAndOnlyFloridaMan]

David Bowie was a genius, he came up with so many different styles and sounds and was always changing his act. You might like to check out his song Let's Dance (be sure to do the full version), it features a certain someone on guitar that you might know but I'll let you figure it out.

[@theodoreritola7641]

NO FUNK BEATS 70s Funk , Fame was Released in 1975 Baby

[@animeman84]

It was used in the movies Pretty Woman,Copycat,A Soldier’s Daughter Never Cries,Next Friday and was used in the following TV shows:Nip/Tuck,Doogie Howser,M.D..,Ugly Betty,and the pilot of Lucifer

[@williamswiniuch7527]

Making me spill this yak on my $200 suit!

[@GrimspecteR.]

It was also used in The House That Jack Built.

[@jkirtleyheacting]

Wait till you hear "Lets Dance" "Golden Years" "When you rock n roll with me" "Win" "Black tie white noise". Bowie was a truly amazing creative man x

[@mikemiller3069]

"Young Americans", "Let's Dance", "Changes", "Golden Years", "Modern Love", "Rebel Rebel", "Space Oddity", "Suffragette City", and "Ziggy Stardust".

[@cosmocassidy420]

Bowie was a mega star. He had about 25 songs that charted . In the same league as Micheal Jackson, Madana, Prince. I think most likely my favorite song by Bowie would be Hero's hard to say had had so many good songs.

[@bobangell1679]

Composed by Bowie, guitarist Carlos Alomar and John Lennon, who also plays some funky guitar and adds backing vocals. John knew a thing or two about Fame!

[@michaelpryor8015]

The Thin White Duke, Ziggy Stardust… Bowie made it cool to adopt different personas. Bowie was cold with it; on soul train before any other white boy. Shout out to U.K. 🇬🇧

[@michellepetrillo2235]

In the summer of ‘75, I wore out the album “Young Americans”, where this song is from. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥 John Lennon is singing the falsetto backing vocals on this song!

[@gamexsimmonds3581]

You should have watched the Soul Train Performance, David Bowie was on soul train. Crazy that Bowie made one of the best funk songs ever

[@deelawson4551]

It was on Next Friday in the scene with Pinky getting out of the car,that`s where I remembered it from.

[@scottlaughlin9897]

This song has John Lennon doing back up vocals. Think he helped compose this track as well?

[@Jackson-jd1um]

Yeah Lennon helped a lot with this song

[@BuzzWreck61]

John playing the bass as well

[@LadyMystie]

Bowie! ❤️ Suffragette City was my favorite, but love this one too.

[@stevenmitchell839]

I remember hearing this song when it first came out... I was at the roller skating ring in Bloomington, In.... Many years ago!! It was fire then and is still FIRE!!

[@Mainecoonlady.]

Oh so many David Bowie moments. Freshman in HS. Ziggy Stardust picture inside door to my locker. I think the magic of Bowie was he reinvented himself over and over. Different genres, different cultures, different decades. Always changing and never being a has been; but instead, discovering new sounds, styles and personas. He was the hero of the misfits. We have all been a misfit at some point. Bowie made it cool. Live performance of Heroes from Berlin 2002. He was a music hero. RIP QUOTE: “And the stars look very different today.” David Bowie.

[@sherryarflin726]

Bowie was one of the most versatile artist ever. He reinvented himself over and over again and kept getting better.

[@YunieDeen13]

now you can see his huge influence on the music scene through the years, even todays music owes bowie

[@shannonmiller4136]

David Bowies catalog is very extensive! Check out the song "China Girl, Let's Dance, Major Tom" he also did a song with Queen...Under pressure is the name! Great rabbit hole to go down!

[@maryriddell1080]

This is one of my favorite songs…it came out in 1975…it was the summer before my Senior year in high school…I remember playing it very loudly in my convertible on the way to the beach (Myrtle Beach, SC) I couldn’t cut the car off until it ended!!! David Bowie was a musical genius and way before his time!!!🤗❤️

[@domeshine69]

It's funny how often you ask what movie a song has been in and I think "what movie/tv commercial hasn't this been in?".

[@mattfulgurite4746]

There is an semi-autobigraphical film/musical about Bowie from 1998 called "Velvet Goldmine" with Christian Bale, Ewan McGregor, Johnathan Rhys Davies, Toni Colette, Eddie Izzard, etc!!! Epic

[@antoniocunha8772]

bowie is a master , one of the greats artists in the planet ever

[@michaelbuhl4250]

James Brown even used the riff from this song for his 1975 song "Hot (I Need to Be Loved, Loved, Loved)".

[@jimglenn6972]

You both really picked up on the funky beat and his voice. He’s like one of the early 50’s rock n’ rollers… he’s of his time but also beyond it. I think people will be listening to this in 50 years and getting down on it. Thanks for a great reaction!

[@stephenbrough8132]

I've always been fascinated that in the early days, David Bowie used to regularly meet up with Marc Bolan, in a little Cafe in London and they both used to regularly give the cafe owner demo discs and cards and who knows what, asking her opinion on songs - but the sad part is that she ran into hard times and had to sell her suit-case full of Bolan and Bowie memorabilia for next to nothing, years before Ebay existed, lost her cafe if I recall the story right - She was a friend of someone I bought a lot of vintage British music magazines from - a few hundred to add to the massive collection I inherited from a bloke in Liverpool (home of the Beatles) ... he'd collected THOUSANDS since 1962, and stacked them week after week in a large wardrobe, until about 1976, when his collecting became a bit hit an miss (maybe he was away from home) then resumed again through the 80's and 90's .. so I was buying hundreds of magazines hoping to fill the gaps, complete the collection. David Bowie goes back a lot further than I realised .. I thought he was a 19 70's phenomenon, because that's when we all talked about him and bought his records in the early 70's .. but then I found him on the front page of NME in 1967 ... DITTO MARC BOLAN, similar time anyway - It seems WEIRD that people are still talking about people who were stars when I was still only 12 - and now I'm close to pushing up the daisies - and those stars already are. Where does time go?

[@ptrlxc]

Sometimes it seems just like yesterday - then poof - gone.

[@MrTech226]

Before his death two days after his birthday, January 8, 2016, Bowie released his final album, Blackstar.

[@TheWizardOfEgo]

Welcome to Bowie - Keep heading down the rabbit hole, you will not be disappointed

[@itchyandred4131]

Great song reaction ❤️ another good one from him is"Golden years" very funky smooth grooves ✌️

[@TheCornishCockney]

“That movie with that guy in it” American vocabulary at its peak.

[@BAW12547]

This song is about what it is like to be famous. Bowie gave his thoughts on the subject in a 2003 interview with Performing Songwriter magazine: "Fame itself, of course, doesn't really afford you anything more than a good seat in a restaurant. That must be pretty well known by now. I'm just amazed how fame is being posited as the be all and end all, and how many of these young kids who are being foisted on the public have been talked into this idea that anything necessary to be famous is all right.

[@SIXX2772]

FUN FACT....Slash's mom dated David Bowie AND Janis Joplin. His dad ( white ) did cover art for tons of famous 70's rock albums.

[@commenceenavoirmarre]

I suggest Bowie - Let's Dance !!

[@taradevine6026]

David Bowie is my very favorite!!

[@letitbesummer6536]

One of my favourite Bowie songs. Very funky!!!

[@alfredrestivo2713]

FAME = META before meta knew it was meta!

[@tomekstrand1988]

Remember this is with John Lennon from the Beatles, when David Bowie sings "Fame," immediately after John sings "fame" high.

[@gaylemitchell5881]

Yes,this was a dance song, so funky . This is my favorite.

[@michellejones6630]

Yeah, under pressure with queen is amazing!!!😍😍😍

[@jamesalexander5623]

.... Just ask Vanilla Ice!

Such a creative guy. Just great to see you guys appreciate this old stuff.😊

[@jameskennedy721]

Composed by Bowie with John Lennon.

[@jameswarner5809]

Carlos Alomar actually used the same riff on James Brown's 'Hot (I Need To Be Loved, Loved, Loved)'.

[@dannycasson1551]

I really appreciate putting the lyrics up for this song. I grew up listening to it without understanding the lyrics. Back then, lyrics to songs wasn’t as easy to find unless you bought the LP! Btw Bowie is a friggin’ Legend.

[@zigman63]

Think I was about 13 when this came out,it was amazing then and now .Cheers for going the Bowie route.

[@rogercaruso9337]

It's amazing how we can change his voice during the song that's talent

[@andrewfisher9125]

Written with John Lennon and Carlos Alomar, featuring Lennon on backing vocals

[@Alfaqwad]

Can't help but nod my head to that bass groove

[@AbbyNormL]

This song came out when I was in 7th grade and it became a massive hit. It was one of the great songs to get your friends over to your black light poster covered room and smoke pot with the volume dial set to 11.

[@kelliepastellie8619]

"Golden Years" .."Modern Love".. "Let's Dance" 🙌

[@vespoint]

I love that you love this so much! Check out Suffragette City, TVC15, and The Jean Genie.

[@perchancetodream1]

Try Fascination from the same album. Also Ziggy Stardust, Heroes and from his later years, Valentine's Day.

[@lisaray9944]

The Grandfather of Glam Rock you guys should check out his Space Oddity but do the live version you have to experience David Bowie Live at least once in a lifetime

[@davidbessey6518]

Golden Years and Moonage Daydream are worth a look

[@bobbyboko6317]

Bowie's songs never age , always cool 😎

[@erictaylor4]

You guys need to check out David Bowie live. There is one live show titled "David Bowie - Live BBC Radio Theatre 2000" that is fire!

[@jennyb9017]

Bowie was a Genius and still is one of my favorite artists,so so many hits!!

[@jefmay3053]

You probably don't know who John Lennon was but he co wrote this and sings the backup vocals.

[@deltabravo287]

I believe the high pitched “fame” backing vocal is John Lennon’s contribution to this song.

[@willfromyadkinville]

another poster has said it i am sure! but he was a true Chameleon in music!

[@patprescott1818]

Modern love, Let's Dance and Heros are some of my favorites ✌❤

[@kevinhenderson5928]

Remember the music video to this one very well! Girls on roller skates!

[@SearlesHernandez]

One of my favorite Bowie songs. Check out "Memory of a Free Festival" 🤙

[@couplakooks]

Nice selection! Fairly deep cut, too. The sun machine is coming down...

[@garym6688]

Great reaction video to a great track - far too many Bowie songs to choose from, but start with a few of the most well-known: "Young Americans," "Changes," "Heroes," "Golden Years," and "Let's Dance" (which along with "Fame" were his only #1 hits in America).

[@festusadams7417]

This came out in the 70s. It was also in a few movies.

[@brettsmith724]

Golden Years remastered studio 100% Fire🔥

Black sheep - the choice is yours

[@alphajava761]

Our music teacher brought this album to our 8th grade school dance on the day it was released in 1975. Everyone went nuts when they heard the songs Fame and Young Americans.

[@wpollock1]

Love Bowie!

[@lynda3860]

They were together in the studio when queen and David did under pressure in switzerland. He is brilliant artist

[@christinerobinson3819]

Bowie has a huge catalogue spanning several decades. A truly great artist

[@theodoreritola7641]

Ya but Fame is from 1975 Them 70s Baby

[@matthewdropco]

You all need to check out his appearance on Soul Train back in the day. I don't remember it, because I was only 3. lol . He did and interview & had kids ask him questions and everything. Really cool. (Bowie on ABCs Soul Train 1975 Nov 4th kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZTSm6hrhrVon68 )

[@matthewdropco]

Oh, While you're at it, another Soul Train vid from the same year, Average White Band ... ( CUT THE CAKE & PERSON TO PERSON-AVERAGE WHITE BAND-SOUL TRAIN kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpOahqWoftxkebM ) . The nice thing about these dudes, is that they played LIVE, no lip syncing. They brung it.

[@ramkraken8242]

Stevie Ray Vaughan play guitar on let’s dance from David Bowie. David Bowie wanted Stevie Ray to be his lead guitar and SRV decided to move forward with his bands career and look what happened.

[@dsfddsgh]

Nearly 50 years old and this song still sounds ahead of it's time.

[@mitziesanders9840]

David Bowie is/was the best chameleon in music. He changed his music and his persona more than any artist.

[@TheStefan6969]

Yeah. Everyone has already said everything!!! However I will add that he plays Jareth The Goblin King in the 80s Jim Henson Movie Labyrinth!!! Definitely worth the watch!!! 😉❤✌🏼

[@13terapyn]

"Life On Mars" 🔥

[@Frostrazor]

to help explain Bowie's genre, he's what you would have called: rock/pop/punk/psychedelic/jazz/blues/funk/alternative/disco/groove music. ;-)

[@karenmitting7181]

You should listen to an old David Bowie song called “Major Tom”. It’s a beautifully sad song. ❤️

[@MrHoppy-so2no]

Bowie was an absolute genius! Enjoy the ride!!

[@mirtieraczo5842]

This was the jam! We tore up the dance floor on this song. It's smooth and funky which reminds me, I would love for you to react to "Get Off" by Foxy.

[@byronmitchell3784]

DAVID BOWIE, "FAME". I WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN HIGHSCHOOL THAT OWNED HIS YOUNG AMERICAN ALBUM. WHICH IS IN MY OPINION NUTS.. ON FAME THE BEATLES JOHN LENNON PLAYED GUITAR ON IT. MORE "ZIGGY STARDUST", "2001 A SPACE ODDITY" "MODERN LOVE", " LET'S DANCE".

[@antoniocarlin5026]

A lot of MOVIES! "15 minutes" with Robert DeNiro is ABOUT this song... and the Andy Warhol about the 15 minutes of Fame... this was the fav song of Mark Chapman, the John Lennon killer.

[@jayvasquez6629]

It’s the song that introduced us to PINKY in NEXT FRIDAY

[@ericandrews5108]

Great song co-written with John Lennon. You should check out Ashes to Ashes

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Bowie was a chameleon. He was so fluid in his style, persona and sexuality. He adopted and adapted many musical and fashion styles. He could be anywhere anytime culturally. A genius.
