There was an early 80’s horror film called “Cat People”. They used this song.
They also use it in “Inglorious Basterds “at a really pivotal scene.
He was like 35 or 36 when he recorded this. He just went through a phase where he dyed his hair platinum blonde.
The Inglorious Basterds version was FIRE
@@OzarkTroutBum 👌🏻😎When that scene starts as the song does- it’s ABSOLUTELY like a music video!🤯
That was his Thin White Duke stage.
Tarantino said in an interview that he thought the song was wasted on the closing credits of the Cat People remake. He did such a great job to even that out.
He wasn't old. He was around 36. It was 1983 when he put out "Let's Dance" and this was a track on it. Saw him that year on the "Serious Moonlight" tour and he was fantastic! Don't think he has one "Sound". He was always changing and had many different sounds. He was called "The Chameleon of Rock" for a reason. My favorite male solo artist of all time.
He was amazing. Only solo artist I like more is Peter Gabriel.
He actually hated the chameleon monicker. His view was that chameleons changed colour to blend in, which was the opposite of what he was trying to achieve
It was also the name of his movie at the time, Cat People. I liked him in Marry Christmas Mr Lawrence
@@wmil65True, the song was on the soundtrack first. I saw the film on release. In this video, you really have to understand the film to understand the song. An ancient culture that can only mate with their own. Sex turns you into a panther, and you must kill to return to human form. It was a female of a film from the 1950s. I really loved the film.
On a side note, I used to pattern to all of David Bowie. (I was born in 1960). I love how, in later years, people thought he covered Nirvana with Man Who Saved the World. He released that song in 1970. They covered him.
During that early era, him, along with Alice Cooper were referred to as Glam Rock, due to the makeup.
His first film was The Man Who Fell to Earth, 1973? He also did the stage performance of The Elephant Man. I saw him the times, the final time was backstage. He was an awesome performer who passed away way too young.
I enjoyed your comment.
Exactly my experience when at that time i went to one special recital in an old mini coliseum at the ville of Frejus ( south of France, not far from Nice)
That was precisely the year when his new Album was released and part of the European tour was a great moment to not only promote his new (magnificent) musical achievement, but also show the world that he and we have been waiting for his long due come back, and the awaiting wasn't in vain. As the Duke still had the fire inside as well as his grateful millions of fans around the world proved.
David Bowie had very large vocal range. This song was for the movie Cat People
👌🏻😎Also, its in ‘Inglorious Bastards’.📀💿
Every era of Bowie he sounds utterly different.
Bowie was the ULTIMATE chameleon - I still miss him everyday.
I’d love to see a reaction to Suffragette City - wham bam thank you ma’am! 🥰👏🏻
If you didn't know Bowie's skills you either haven't seen Labyrinth or didn't recognise him. He was the male lead and did half the soundtrack... it's incredible.
And also, you must see "Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence". His acting performance is incredible in this, even down to his atrocious singing! Only a true actor will go this far to be true to his caracter. Check it out, you'll understand.
This is Bowie's trademark crooner voice. He used it more when her got older, but he had it for most of his career. He actually was a very skilled vocalist, with many different modes of singing.
“I’m afraid of Americans” is a great Bowie
tune worth checking out
This is the original version which he co-wrote with Giorgio Moroder for the film "Cat People" (Bowie wrote the lyrics, Moroder the music). Bowie re-recorded it for his album "Let's Dance", which had a rockier edge. This video is fan made and incorporates scenes from the movie and Bowie during his 1983 Serious Moonlight tour in which he performed the later version of the song.
In my opinion, this version is the stronger of the two, although the remake is still very good.
This version was also released as a single, but in edited form.
On a side note, the version played during the end credits of the film itself is slightly different in parts to the Original Soundtrack (this) release.
In your intro I did not hear you mention The rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from Mars. There's a world of Bowie vocals and Mick Ronson guitar waiting on that album.
He was awesome throughout his career!
Good choice for one of the better 1980s Bowie tracks, and nice reaction. The video clip insertions are from the 1980s remake of the movie _Cat_ _People_ (not all that great a watch) where this song was used. Yeah, Bowie had great vocal range, though it was constrained by the 1990s due to cigarettes (he recovered most of that after quitting around 2000). Try his 1970s recordings of "Wild Is the Wind" or "My Death" for hearing his original range.
Cat People was an erotic, exotic movie. Natasha Kinski was great in the movie, the plot was so different, maybe has a cult following
@@rubroken Loved her in Roman Polanski’s “Tess” (1979)
This is a mix of the movie Cat People and his live performance in 1983 during the Serious Moonlight tour.
His vocal range was so extensive that there really isn’t any one Bowie voice.
Its Natasha Kinski and Roddy McDowell in the film clips.
Yay, finally played this. Love, love, love it🤩
This was used in the film ‘Inglorious Basterds’ by Tarantino
CAT PEOPLE
david never ceases to amaze!
“Michael Jackson was black then” i think I peed my pants! Bowie the magnificent, you have so much before you!☮️❤️😎
I wouldn’t try too hard to decipher Bowie lyrics. At one point he wrote phrases, cut them into strips of paper, and reassembled them into lyrics. He was a genius
David Bowie was such an authentic soul. This song was for the Natasha Kinski Cat People movie.
Its a thiller, yet if you listen to the song, its a person that can't express their REAL SELF. ONE who tries but it just makes things Worst!
ITS A great movie, and Natasha Kinski is beautiful and alluring.
Had to laugh....."I've heard Fame, I've heard Let's Dance. He has something else too. He's probably got more stuff". Great reaction!
I said the same without reading your comment.
Kia ora (hello) cuzz i saw DAVID BOWIE in 1983 here in Aotearoa new zealand 13 year's old with my dad and younger sister it was THE SERIOUS MOONLIGHT TOUR touring the LET'S DANCE album on which this song was on and CHINA GIRL CO WRITTEN BY GOD!!! OR AS THE general public know him IGGY POP LETS DANCE MODERN LOVE AND RICOCHET other standouts from that album
Please react to Wild is the Wind - then react to Johnny Mathis and Nina Simone's renditions. Great study of styles!
Best scene from Inglourius Basterds and mostly due to this song
Hard to decide which scene for me! LOL.
I saw bowie sing this live in his Serious Moonlight Tour at the Tacoma Dome in 82 he was in his absolute prime as you can see
David Bowie Live, Cat People

Bowie wrote this as the theme song from the early 80s horror movie CAT PEOPLE. those videos are from the film which was as you can tell seriously scary. You can gather the plot from the videos. It IS what it looks like.
Thanks for putting this masterpiece out there for a new generation. Bowie of course is immortal.
😢Too bad Seattle sucks now.
@@joshgellis3292 i wouldnt know about that. I fled in 89 with my two horses to the family farm in Wisconsin. Been there ever since and never went back cause everyone i knew in seattle in the grunge 80s...died young.
bowie......never dull!
I think I saw the movie when it came out in the '80s. Wasn't it about people who turned into panthers after they had sex? Anyone else see this show?
If they have sex with someone not of their tribe (aka other Cat People) or their family, they undergo the transformation.
What they must do to return to being human is horrific.
What an amazing song - Bowie is just amazing.
The FIRST time I heard this, was in complete darkness, and it works...
Great story, movie, music, creators, and performers (and of course Actors )
This is a fan-made video, not official at all. It has images from the film Cat People
Btw you said something about the videos being simple back then, I assume this one was put together by someone else, because all of Bowie's music videos are ridiculously elaborate and artsy in the extreme lol.
David Bowie did the soundtrack for the movie Cat People. This song is of the opening scene of the movie. And if you want to watch an absolutely horrifying, HARD R movie, watch this version of Cat People. The lead actors are fantastic! And ready yourself, this movie EARNS its R rating!
Giorgio e David una collaborazione esplosiva ❤
Johnny Cash? That is a cool way to describe it when he is crooning mode.
I love this song, but not many people react to it.
It was a video made for his live concert tour, used on stage.
7:36 In this moment of the movie Cat People, the main character finally realizes with dread that her late brother wasn’t crazy.
8:39 She also realized her dream from the previous night was a real. It was a vision from her ancestors.
If she makes love with a regular person she will turn into a black leopard.
This is crazy cult classic from the 1980’s. It’s a remake of a movie of the same name from the 1940’s.
Not something I hope they remake again…they will just mess it up.
No the shirtless guy who appears at the end is Malcolm McDowell.
Putting out the fire with gasoline. It's a classic idiom about trying to help the situation and just making things worse. Often you'll heat people say "You're just adding fuel to the fire."
This channel needs more David Bowie. Perhaps something from the Young Americans or Station To Station album, because they should be easier to access for americans.
The scenes are from an 80s movie called Cat People
man, the single version of this song is pure fire. This version is meandering.
I've never heard this version. I grew up with the uptempo rocker version of this which almost sounds like a different song : www.youtube.com/watch?v= m0ODoeBc04g
This original version is so much better IMO.
"I've heard Fame, Let's Dance. He' had something else too." Geez! Check out his other 400 songs!
This is the single version video: czcams.com/video/n-VfQLIrwX0/video.html
How many seconds does it take to look up the song before reacting? Just to know the year of the song and how old he was.. 🤔
He wasn’t old then lololol
No I understand what you mean. He just sounds old or older here at first. I call it his old man voice. He is using his voice differently I feel
See the film and it all makes sense.
One of the last movies I can remember watching with my dad. We never finished it. Planned to but life catches up until it's too late.
Yeah his deep voice that is it. It makes thks song really stand out. Bowtie was a musical chameleon though. He could do some amazing things
You should see the Movie. Cat People.
Choooooooooon!
Love him
Stevie Ray Vaughn played guitar on this track.
Sorry this is live. He played on the original track.
i love this movie and wild animal too even wolfs but so many stupide people kill this beautiful animal no it is not a pusycat
Watch the movie
This is the Thin White Duke years
No it is not. It is 1982.
Watch the piece from Inglorious Basterds. That is awesome.

This version from "Let's dance" he sings in baritone and it is a harder version than the first movie version. Tarantino used it in brilliantly in Inglorious basterds.
You couldn't have paused it at a worse point, RIGHT ON that first amazing transition! lol. That's why it's always worth rewinding a little, after pausing. It's a shame you missed the full, first time effect... :)
Love, how your face lit up at 4:20 or so!!
but...
This isnt an official video (merely sb'.s coullage), Bowie wasn' old recording this (for whatever that means) and with no disrespect, I do wonder why would one claim a tune sounded different when only knowing a tiny fraction of an artist's work?
Don't get me wrong, go on doing what you do! Yet.. perhaps with more self-reflection & less assumption.
This is his remake of his Cat People originally from the Let's Dance album. The Let's Dance "Cat People" is much better with *Stevie Ray Vaughan* igniting a firestorm on guitar. This later remake has been de-clawed. Still not bad though.
You've got it completely the wrong way round, Ken! This is the original version, which was *rerecorded* for the Let's Dance album.
Station to Station from the same tour. You want vocalist? You got vocalist. From the Serious Moonlight tour. I recommend HIGHLY.
He was 36, years old roughly, otherwise interesting video
My fav Bowie song. Then Tonight with Tina Turner and Space Odyssey.
*Space Oddity
you didn't know David Bowie could sing?
I remember going to see Cat People in the cinema and then this music came on……. The film was a bit ridiculous, great music though
Just play the song.. comment after.
Twice, at the worst possible moment, you pause. It takes skill to have timing and instincts that bad.
Watch the Inglorious Basterds version.
And don’t try to analyze Bowie lyrics too much. They mean whatever you want them to mean.
Thanks for sharing this. I love this song.
Ah - that’s Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar!!!
Oops - album version is superior - with Stevie
I disagree. Stevie RV could play alright, but the rerecording for the Let's Dance album really lost the dark, foreboding atmosphere of the original. This long version *is* somewhat meandering, but its tempo is fab. The original single version is the definitive one IMO. Also, the sound quality on this video is awful.
As to the film Cat People, it's not great, but it's quite watchable - um, especially if the thought of seeing Nastassia Kinski naked is in any way appealing...
I agree. The soundtrack version is superior. And as great as SRV is the version Bowie did on his " Let's Dance;" album with him lost it's specialness. No mystery or sensuality. The soundtrack version was perfect for the film.
