Jeffs vocals period! This is freaking awesome!!!

[@shoumikzaman4511]

this is by far , the best cover of this song. Period.

[@spartanclucky884]

The only other cover than i believe ties with this is , in my opinion, was chris hadfield singing it. The fact that he sung it in space, and got the seal of approval by david bowi, was beautiful.

[@selfawaretoast-yt]

Agreed

[@eyalastanglov8309]

one of the best in general..

[@Sanjanin]

I agree. Ever.

[@drunkenbard16]

These dudes deliver studio quality vocals LIVE like they're not even trying. Absolutely astounding.

Dude, beast mode harmonies. Damn. Great overall.

[@mr.moseby2456]

What the fuck dude, there should have been a bigger applause for them. That beginning was absolutely perfect. The rest of the song was impeccable too.

[@clivelambert-oe7kg]

@@syjutaj his creep cover is madness

[@QuentinLovejoy]

I'll be honest, Mike was phenomenal, but I feel like Jeff absolutely nailed the harmonies, sound effects, and bass line. Nothing against ya Mike, but hats off to Jeff. Excellent cover, both of you!

[@lukedsk]

Mike did all the harmonies as Jeff naturally sings an octave below him.

[@livingkevin]

yeah it was the bassists song here but the vocal harmony is bewildering. im lost

[@Ytschi]

Sorry i disagree. Thats a pure group effort. One doesnt work without the other. Together they sound how they sound and thats the magic about this act

[@TheUltimateLizard]

Mike does the back vocal by singing the highest octave and Jeff sings the lead. It's exactly how David Bowie sings, simple as that.

[@davi66urtin]

Quentin Lovejoy the bassline was simplified most definitely but he needed to sing. That’s the only problem I guess

[@jasonking4753]

Imagine you and your buddies decide to just go out for pizza and a couple beers, walk in and see there’s a band there and think “oh cool we’ll hear some music” and then you hear this masterpiece

[@shawnuel]

Jeff's tone REALLY makes this cover. Exquisite!

[@gregb.299]

+Shawn McLaughlin He's awesome.

[@StrangeDuck]

yeah, Bowie was cutting multiple audio tracks and mixing them on separate channels to get this sound. But they reproduced it nicely

[@dh1380]

Shawn McLaughlin yep. Jeff carries this one. Killer skills from both of them.

[@lauraduncan2125]

Awesome

[@hopefulguitarist7532]

Agree. If I could get that tone from my bass. What's the secret? Beautiful music.

[@Haitchpeasauce]

I really love Jeff's vocals in this rendition. That countdown... Beautiful bass playing. You're an inspiration, Jeff!

[@GediSpock]

Yeah. I was just thinking that. Mike has amazing pipes. But Jeff was as equally awesome.

[@tomcox22]

Just blows my mind, to think, that up until about a year ago, you could just walk in this pizza place, any time, and for the price of a beer, listen to them play all night-and they did this for like 15 years. Unreal !!!

[@sandiricketts921]

Our son SSG William Seth Ricketts, was KIA in Afghanistan 02/27/10. He was a big Bowie fan and this song was played at his funeral. The is one of the best acoustic covers I've heard. Although, being a bias Mom, the cover done by our other son, Ben is my favorite. Thanks for the memory, on today, 02/28/18, 8 years and one day...

[@mikemasse]

So sorry for your loss, Sandi. Thank you for sharing that.

[@LNMY_psy]

When I first listened to this song like 4-5 years ago I had goosebumps and enjoyed this song immensely. Now today after not hearing it for 3+ years I'm goosebumping once again. AMAZING PERFORMANCE.

[@Ethosraps]

I've probably watched this a hundred times. As a lifelong musician this may be one of the best covers I've ever heard. Thanks for sharing this.

[@peterdadswell7998]

Do you know why Mike had a big smile on his face throughout this song? it was because he had Jeff sitting beside him with those incredible harmonies. This is an incredible performance by both these guys and still the best cover 14 years on in 2023.

[@POK2008]
