Love the way you get Bowie 🎉

[@cosmiccat6708]

That opening sound is to replicate a train - Stationtostation-. Been a Bowie fan from the beginning. He was truly special, otherworldly and I spent a couple of weeks in a surreal daze after his passing. But what a legacy he left for us. So glad you are taking this journey. There are just too many songs to suggest as reactions. Where do I start?. I'm going to have to think about this one!. I'm sure you'll be given plenty of great recommendations in the meantime. Great reaction, Pope, as always.

[@kristahartmann1628]

I ditched work at the club to see this concert...Bowie in a beautiful black suit, white dress shirt, skinny black tie, slicked back hair..Thin white .Duke indeed...heroin chic. Extraordinary. Was fired next day, someone dimed me. No regrets.

[@ezechielamadeus2828]

😂👍

[@garycoker3378]

I saw this tour in Memphis david and the band kicked ass.

[@eifionjones8835]

THANKS TO SOCIAL MEDIA I CAN LISTEN TO DAVID BOWIE Again 😅

[@pimjcb9964]

To me, the best opening song ever for a album.

[@BobS-0727]

Adrian Belew is a fucking guitar God! His ambient distortion style of playing a guitar cannot be matched. And Davids other favorite is Carlos Alomar. Oh, and lets not forget Stevie Ray Vaughn and Peter Frampton and of course Mick Ronson. Bowie never fails to deliver.

[@ReesesPieces634]

looks like Adrian Belew on guitar

[@1mS0ph13]

I love you vibing with the song

[@johns.]

I saw Bowie in Memphis that year, it was a fantastic concert. Nice to see this video, it brought back memories. Nice reaction too.

[@bobcorbin3294]

Saw him in Nashville spring of '78 there is an audio of pretty decent quality of it on KZbin

[@johns.]

[@garse70]

Adrian Belew guitar genius.

[@tonyrutgershauer7947]

Lol, thats Adrian Belew on lead guitar, freshly "stolen" by Bowie from Frank Zappas band when the tours crossed paths in Cologne..which led to a well known "disagreement" between the two in a German restaurant.

[@grahamheffer6535]

Seen this performed several times a masterpiece

[@anthonyblakely399]

Love me some David!!!! Legendary Excellent artist!!! A Rock god among gods!!!!

[@ScottHindle-qv6mq]

Bowie loved afro American musicians.

[@Harromuso]

Loved that! Another Bowie suggestion is the video for "Lazarus". It's off his final album and seems to be about his impending death, which he was aware of... awesome song. Keep rockin' Harro 😁🤘

[@James-hd6ez]

In my opinion David Bowie between 1976-1980 is his most artistic period,maybe not his most commercial and financially rewarding period,it just moves me and puts you in that era almost like travelling back in time, i was too young to have seen him live in 1978 but did get to see him live in Liverpool in the 1990s and he was amazing. RIP Starman 🙏.

[@frankaviza6362]

Love you, bro.

[@anabellelei8540]

That album! Start to finish is brilliance. Thank you.

[@joshuadeshaies7266]

The Return of the Thin White Duke!! Hell yeah Pope!! Good choice bro thx! Rock on!!¡

[@TROJAN-SKIN54-46]

It’s just amazing when someone just gets it and you my friend Get it welcome to Bowie

[@Smartie1]

Completely Insane song Unreal

[@berlinman5409]

I know this David Bowie Life Record since 1978 and looove it - but now it´s my very first time that I saw this video clip of it :) - wow :)) - thanks so much for showing this - super :)

[@undeadredead8368]

For another good Bowie live, I would suggest Rock n Roll Suicide, either the performance from 1973 or 1990 (they’re vastly different, but equally great) or Dead Man Walking Acoustic 1997.

[@luantodd8876]

1973 = gelendary 1990 = full emotion

[@Drummingvulture]

The first time I saw Bowie was on this tour. What a freakin' band he had: Carlos Alomar and Adrian Belew on guitars, Simon House on violin, Roger Powell on keyboards. Oh, don't forget the DAM Trio, George Murray and Dennis Davis (along with Carlos Alomar). My girlfriend (now my wife) and me missed the last encore or so; we were busy being busted for smoking pot. LOL! Otherwise, an amazing show.

[@joshuadeshaies7266]

This is my favorite Bowie tune bro!! Nice transitions in it, great guitar 🎸 work. Hell yeah Pope!! Ty. Rock on!!¡

[@EiriUesugiKun]

6:26 - "It's not the side effects of cocaine" ... Umm... xD But still, he was such an great artist and human beeing.

[@Pablopax4]

Ah, this was when Bowie lured Adrian Belew away from Frank Zappa's band. He's of my favourite guitar players, he does such an innovative epic couple of solo's on Talking head's "The Great Curve" which is also a favourite of mine, Brian Eno produced the album Remain in light and his influence added Fela Kuti stylings to the mix. Eno wasn't just about ambient, he loved West African music and produced some bands from the area back in the late 70's..I'm so off topic, this Bowie tune and performance was great too.

[@karenward267]

Bowie, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are the soundtrack to my early teenage years. The Great White Duke is greatly missed by so many of us.

[@paoladaniele9119]

Absolute greatness !

[@SirHilaryManfat]

I found your channel recently, and I love how you're deep diving into prog rock and alternative rock. I assume you're going out of your comfort zone musically, which is a great thing to see from reaction channels, as opposed to the ones that react to generic 70's/90's pop hits. Station to Station is such a great Bowie song and album, possibly the funkiest he's done in his career. If you get a chance, check out the track 'Stay' from the same album. it's so good!

[@sexobscura]

Agreed. This song and album is a true masterpiece. The influences he sources and uses his special alchemy on is truly astonishing. That he doesn't remember even making the album is frustrating for us fans ... but understandable considering his habits of the time. Truly astounding musician

[@emmafrench7219]

Yes! Yes! Yes! As always, thank you squire.

[@markchester7132]

Great innovation on the intro with Brian Eno. Then the song goes in a surprisingly melodic direction. Prepping us for what’s coming as David takes us to a hard driving powerful place. He was the embodiment of GENIUS! The one and only rock god. Admired by so many.

[@gzucc]

Do 'Sound and Vision' next!

[@brucedillinger9448]

Station to Station, the song and whole album, is in my top 5 of favorite Bowie discs. It got me through some tough times back in '76. Thanks for reacting and for posting. ✌

[@JoanieAdamms]

You got to be kidding me, I just listened to this song and came on here to listen to it again, and boom, here we are again, Thank you, Thank you!.

[@POPE.]

great minds unite ✨

[@JoanieAdamms]

@@POPE. Amen

[@christinawoolley6206]

That beginning is intense! I was playing the song with my sister when our Dad came home. He loved all kinds of music and we would share what we liked. Listening to this he became visibly uncomfortable. When questioned, he said he was waiting for the tune and the sounds were rhythmically continuing for too long. 😹 We all started laughing when the beat dropped. Interesting...He concurred! Thank God every day for his influence. 😽💋🎶

[@source5729]

Remember buying this in high school ~ still love it 🌟

[@ivankaramasov]

Great reaction! And great to see that he still has the power to impress young people. I have been a fan for 41 years, and Station to Station was for a long time my favorite Bowie song.

[@lauraulnye6857]

Thank you for letting us "boomers" relive our childhood and teen years. We had the best choices in music to listen too.❤️. Love seeing you young ones hear what we enjoyed and enjoying yourself. You reactors help keep the music alive for younger generations.

[@christinerobinson3819]

There's some old footage of him doing the Gene Jeannie at BBC's Top of the Pops in 1973 that was lost and only discovered a few years ago. I think you would like that. Also Heart's Filthy Lesson or Hello Spaceboy......2 songs I haven't seen anyone else react to

[@MrsMillwall]

Yes!

[@dashcat3960]

I love both of those live performances.

[@robertknuist9754]

I love your groove brother

[@PanarchyInTheUK]

Thank you for doing Station to Station! There's not enough variety of Bowie reaction videos: I've seen enough Starman and Heroes! Please consider diving into The Man Who Sold The World, Diamond Dogs, Ziggy Stardust, Hunky Dory....

[@jeffschielka7845]

Hey Pope! Happy Sunday! BOWIE!!! 🔈🔉🔊🙏☮💜

[@MisterWondrous]

Most excellent. Did not know that King Crimson guitarist, Adrian Belew, got his start with Bowie. Most impressive lifepath. "Bring me the Disco King" is a fun song you should like. I LOVED the way he skipped away. If everyone skipped, this would be a groovier world. Less goal-driven, and living in the moment.

[@bobcorbin3294]

Bowie poached Adrian out of Frank Zappa's band Frank discovered Adrian here in Nashville at a little club called Cantrell's where me and my friends had seen him and then took him on tour. Imagine our surprise when we see him a couple years later when he's playing guitar for David Bowie. Adrian tells a funny story about how David tried to be nice to Frank about stealing Adrian out of his band and Frank was having none of it.

[@MisterWondrous]

@@bobcorbin3294 Impressive provenance indeed. Wow, thanks!

[@mister3566]

@@bobcorbin3294 Yeah zappa was that pissed he kept calling Bowie Captain Tom

[@michaelminch5490]

Zappa was brilliant, but he could be a major dickhead. Bowie asked Belew if he'd like to collaborate, Belew said, "sure." Next thing you know, Zappa was accusing Bowie of stealing "his" guitarist (I believe he actually got in David's face about it when their paths crossed at an airport). Bowie and Belew were both too good-natured to let it turn into a public fight. They were both like, "Yeah, okay Frank, whatever," and laughed it off.

[@MisterWondrous]

@@michaelminch5490 Adrian wound up at King Crimson, he was that good. No wonder they fought over him. Frank was very kind and generous when we briefly chatted in Boston about some German lyrics from Joe's Garage II. But geniuses can get cranky and possessive, and Zappa, Bowie and Fripp are all that.

[@ronniequilter3556]

Another masterclass from the genius that was bowie

[@karenlobosco9646]

Wow. I'd forgotten what a singular voice he had. A true once in a generation talent. Bravo, David. Bravo.

[@karenlobosco9646]

P.S. Ladies, check out those cheekbones! Swoon!

[@leegreenhalgh6677]

You got to watch the film Christiane F ...its a masterpiece of European culture..Bowie does the Soundtrack...wish I've never seen it, just to get it all AGAIN..

[@TheNcc1701xyz]

Thanks for a great reaction. I saw Bowie twice in London on the 1978 tour. Still my favourite gigs! Absolutely blew me away and possibly the best touring band he put together.

[@jaquestraw1]

We didn't deserve David Bowie.

[@jaquestraw1]

This was brilliant tour with Adrian Belew on Lead guitar

[@mattleppard1964]

Blackstar please! ❤😂

[@IanGrey-tg3yp]

Love your Bowie reactions. Many in the US missed his brilliant resurgence in the 90s, 2000s and onward to his death in 2016. Check out Hallo Spaceboy (ass-crushing industrial), Dead Man Walking (drum n bass pop), Everyone Says Hi (post-Britpop), and of course, BLACKSTAR. Cheers from New York, Ian

[@theother1406]

Thin white duke is a fascist character. He shows up in the Love is lost, lost is love video. He tries to comfort the very empathic major Tom. This shit goes deep bro. And no, Bowie is not a fascist. "The European canon is here, it's too late" he's a futurist through and through. It's the (hello Steve Reich version VEVO. Check it out, it's bone chilling.

[@MrsMillwall]

Reckon you would love Bowie's Won't You Rock And Roll With Me, tis fab ✨️

[@dcg4mn]

I remember when he brought this tour to NYC and, after I started hearing/seeing parts of this concert, I’ve kicked myself ever since for not being there! This performance is almost too amazing to be believed, so many great different parts orchestrated seamlessly. Love your reactions, how you totally take it in get it feel it 🤘🏽

[@christinawoolley6206]

I was blessed to see this live during his 1978 tour! The fact he could bring this complex song to life was intoxicating! Thank you for sharing young man! 😽💋🎶

[@jkirtleyheacting]

Love your Bowie reactions. Great to see . You might like "Black Tie White Noise" from the album of the same name and "Loving the Alien" live from the Reality Tour also as a great example of other facets of Bowie's career. There are 28 albums worth of great songs so you are on a wonderful adventure.

[@inekebaalman3320]

I love the live version of Black Tie White Noise on the Jay Leno show, together with Al B Sure!

[@daverice2426]

Glad you found the Nacho Video channel, he's got tons of amazing old Bowie video, a lot of which he's painstakingly assembled/edited/cleaned up from bootlegs and whatnot. There's a version of this song from the Isolar tour two years earlier, which was the first real concert I'd ever been to, at 14. To say it blew my mind would be an understatement; it opened with the 1929 Luis Bunuel/Salvador Dali film "Un Chien Andalou" which was both horrifying and the greatest thing I'd ever seen, until Bowie came on, that is. So cool seeing you dig this stuff, subscribed right away PS Melvins did an incredible cover of this in 2013, with JG Thirwell on vocals

[@imano8265]

Funny reaction. Thanks for that. I always wonder whether young people like you would recognice the sound of the beginning of this. Sure it is a train. That makes sense in a song called Station to Station, yeah, but the sound imitates the start of a steam locomotive which was old fashioned technique even in the time I was young. So a couple of generations later can people be familiar with it?

[@bowiev2schneider58]

Capolavoro station to station , grazie mille per te vidéo man 👍

[@jeffmiller4832]

Have you ever listened to “David Live at the Tower Theatre?” Yes? Then you know. No? Please give it a listen. Enjoy 🍻

[@mistersnitty7721]

David Live.... one of the best live albums !!!

[@robertasirgutz8800]

Love your response to Bowie. A straight up genius. He had to metaphorically "kill" Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders, and that "starman" imagine to venture into Plastic Soul, which was more successful commercially. Mick Ronson was his better half and then he died young. Got screwed royally both financially and professionally. "Diamond Dogs" helped him make the transition.

[@ardentdesir5796]

Thank you for not pretending to hear "Heroes" for the first time, and thank you for picking this version of a great track. Well done.

[@fatovamingus]

What a persona. He was truly The Thin White Duke. I hope you listen to the album because this song is not good live it's so much Fuller on the album and also Stay and tvc-15 amazing songs

[@christinebainbridge2354]

You should definitely check out the concert version of this song that was featured in the movie, “Christine F”.

[@erikahlander3489]

Nice reaction! Still a lot of Bowie to explore! And I think you have still not made any Steely Dan, Carlos Santana, Frank Zappa? Correct? And these are only a few of the most iconic of the 70s. You are entertaining when you find something you really like, and I think you will enjoy it!

Its Kabalistic, starts with the breaking down of old structures …the intro is chaos….Station to stantion is the densifing of spirit into matter…the Tree of Life,He says from KETER TO MALKUTH in the song….The interview (a european in America Wants to get Back to Europe).
