Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
It's a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling, "No!"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
[Pre-Chorus]
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
[Chorus]
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh, man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh, man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
[Verse 2]
It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
[Pre-Chorus]
But the film is a saddening bore
Because I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on
[Chorus]
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh, man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh, man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

The world was better with Bowie in it
I agree ☝️ I miss him
I have the strange impression that the world stopped in 2016 starting with Bowie ending with George Michael 💔✌️
Indeed, changes are there but not the good ones.
We miss you so much Dude.
Everything went downhill since his death
The world still has Bowie in it. It always will. And it is better for it.
The way he sings this song..he was clearly not "just" a singer. He was an actor, an artist, a visionary..
Sapesse anche cantare sarebbe perfetto
When humans first land on Mars we’ll find an old Bowie just chilling on a rock asking “What took you guys so long?!”
Elon musk
Bruh, you made it more emotional
He won't be old- he'll be exactly the same way you remember him, in whatever incarnation that is.
He'll be driving around in Elon Musks Tesla car.

HELLO FELLOW DAVID BOWIE FANS
Hi
Hi back...fun getting to see this with my Bowie-loving pals.
Hey
Hello.
Hi
Most audiences would sing along. This audience just stays quiet and listens to a legend.
Kinda hard to sing along when your jaw is on the floor.
There's nothing wrong or disrespectful with singing along.
@@RobVespa Yes there is. It's rude and disrespectful to the other people sitting near you.
@@John_Locke_108 Really ? Are you on concert for other people ? Sometimes artists wants you to sing along with them. It all depends on situation and concert ;)
@@FenRiddle Agreed. But in this setting, during this performance, it would be rude to sing along. But during a Pearl Jam show, you're expected to sing along when they play Evil Goat.
Wow, they are still finding Bowie footage. That's great
Hope they upload the entire show, I'm in love with it.
This existed for a while and was aired overseas but this is really cleaned up/restored and looks great.
I love when he talks. And when he laughs. And when he sings.
And smiles! 😍
His expressions 😢
NASA has landed on Mars. But is there any "Life on Mars?"
- David Bowie
R.I.P David Bowie 1947-2016
No one can sing like this. Mesmerizing. The audience hanging on every word...
I would like to believe that David Bowie is not dead, I would like to believe that he is just on mars. Yeah?
Me too...
Perseverance will find him and he will just smile at it's cameras and disappear...
hes hanging with Oppy
He is with Ozzy now...
It may sounds ridiculous considering he is one of the most legendary artists of all time. But I think he never got the recognition he deserves as a vocalist.
His voice was absolutely beautiful.
And to think that he himself didn't like his voice but took the job on because no one else would sing his songs.
Imagine that? Unbelievable.
He was one of the greatest voices of our time. Thank you David for singing for us, we love you too!
@@rachelperazza2816 Exactly ✌🏻⚡❤
He has a beautiful operatic quality. He probably could have sang in operas if given the chance. This is absolutely a heartbreakingly beautiful performance...he's beautiful...the piano...it's just everything!
@@CA-tz2sg I absolutely agree
Sad but true...
Plot twist: David came back from Mars and will perform.
With Freddie Mercury and Marc Ronson guesting.
Lol!! Thank goodness for all the David Bowie concerts on CZcams!!! I really miss him...☀️🌴🌺🎵🎵🎵
Indeed. However, the FIRST thing I would do is to ban ANY holographic image(s) of the thin white Duke... 🌹❤️🌹
Hi is in Mars alone , but we will come to soon with Elone Musk)
This is ground control to Major Tom, can you hear me Major Tom...
Tell my wife I love her very much...
His voice only got more beautiful unique and haunting as he aged. This version of the song really gives me black star album vibes with the vocals and the flow
i miss him every day. i miss someone who i never met.
same, I miss him so bad too, and I don't even knew him until last year
A great kiss to David Bowie fans. Bowie was a trully hero.
Love you too ❤️❤️
@@patrickbateman7665 😘
@@joboleynn3109 ❤️❤️
@@joboleynn3109 Are you from Brazil ?
@@patrickbateman7665 yes ^^
What an incredible beauty it is to know this man's music. An infinite privilege
No longer the young rocker but an absolute master of his craft at this point.
Just listen to his delivery and the depth of meaning.
He was a black star from beginning to end.
My favourite artist of any genre.
Love you David!
His mic control is off the charts here
David bowie is a legend
Bowie helped so many people deal with a messed up world.A story teller that opened our minds & hearts.Thank you David.
This performance makes me tear up every time. The atmosphere, his voice, his emotions, the way his face shows at the end how he's feeling the music, his respect for the pianist. Damn. 😥
That's not just any pianist, that's the great Mike Garson who was with him for 30 years
I'm not crying, got a Bowie in my eye.
david bowie stans unite
Heyo
@@Brenda-rn2kc bestie go to the live chat 😭
He's perfect. Just perfect.
The King of Kings. The Greatest Showman and Rock Star of All Time. The Emperor of Modern Music. Our Hero: Forever and Ever.
Amen
Absolutely! No one can or ever will come close to the brilliance that was/is David Bowie! Miss him every single day. The world just isn't the same without him in it.
He's not the king of kings Jesus Christ is the king of kings but David Bowie is quite a wonderful person
Oh Yes ... I do great covers of DB on CZcams as Space Boy ... but I'm Telling Lies .... I recon they're awful ... I think I'm sad
The true Love of my life is bowie
This version, with Mike Garson and David's raw vocals is my favorite. I miss him & love him so much.🥺🥰
He was the coolest ever. No one can touch David.
David Bowie ist ein Traum, Eine Legende! ❤️
This was absolutely gorgeous...I am crying . He is deeply missed. 😢
Sardonic, ironic, compassionate, soul-tonic.
David, my prince of love,
when someone hugs me with heart,
I hear your name.
Two tears slipping out now.
Thank you...
We miss you, pretty star, 💫
I love how Bowie was really into Mike Garson's playing and always gave him a name check.
Great musicians respecting each others talent
David Bowie opened the world to me. He is and will always be fantastic. The world was so much more colorful with him.We all thank you for everything you have given us and are still giving us. Thank you David Bowie!! We love you ❤️
Can't wait!💞 David Bowie is a legend!💋
Mike Garson. Just outstanding. That's the great thing about Bowie. How he picked the musician's he wanted to play on his songs. So good.👍
I cant wait!!!
one of my favorite songs...
... thank you Bowie!!!
@@darose2310 I havent watched it, but I will... thanks!!! :-)
So glad to see the lyrics...and. I can't wait to tune in tomorrow. I search daily for something new on Bowie. Thanks
I was a teenager 1995-1999 and it was such an amazing time to be a Bowie fan when Bowie was so vibrant and his sense of enthusiasm for his work was tangible. Very happy memories, captured forever.
The world just isn't the same without Bowie in it... feels so much emptier...
I miss Bowie. The world was so much brighter with him in it.
Definitely agree 🙂
Man this is such a well written song. Bless Bowie
Really doesn’t get much better than this.
What a brilliant songwriter, vocalist, musician, human. He was incredible ❤
At 2:10 the smile that appears on Bowie's face when the pianist goes off on a flourish is priceless and beautiful.
R.I.P. David Bowie
Inspiring future generations to space with the greatest songs ever created. The reason we reach for the stars, David Bowie.
Memento Mori, and Rest In Piece ❤️
he caresses every note like dusty velvet ❤️
Thank you, David.
Stripped back perfection! One man, a Piano, and Bowie. Phenomenal.
Gone five years now, and I still choke up every time I hear his voice, no matter what era/decade.
Tengo 19 años y el fue mi inspiración
Rip David bowie :(
Ya somos dos :')
@@duaclassy5438 tres :(
I can't express how much I miss Mr. Jones....
I slept to this song last night. Peaceful
Same, same, so peaceful
Brilliant song David Bowie got even better looking as he aged 😍
Absolute pure everlasting talent. Unforgettable. Incomparable. Unique. Long live David Bowie, wherever he is!
Don't you all miss him so much? I do. It still hurts. At least we will always have the magic of his music and seeing these performances. I hope he is happy wherever he is.
He's happy, and he hopes we're happy, too. ⭐
Live on 14th october 1999… 22 years later, I.m leastening to this marvelous song, a 14th october.
Love you Bowie, for ever.
Unbelievable singer and songwriter.
I want to meet him in heaven ♡
Just one word: sublime
I'm a big big Bowie fan and it makes me sad that I never had the opportunity to see my hero live on a concert and it's no longer possible 💔
The Starman is always gonna be missed ⚡
What a voice..and perfect timing..bring more joy when on my 4th day at covid 19 isolation facility my symptoms are getting better...The Goblin King and his magic!!!
It made me cry. David Bowie has something very loving in his voice. And that‘s exactly how he is. Forever David Bowie...until I die, and beyond ❤️
I'd sell my soul to be able to see David live, i said what I said.
So happy that I saw him live. He is and was for me the best creatieve singer. Still gives me goosebumps. Thank you David. And of course Mike Carson on piano❤
Garson
Best song in the world..
We miss you David
It's splendid how he sings that one, my fave tune ever
crying. Miss You David Bowie :-(
I saw the Milan concert of the same tour, Life on Mars was the opening and yes even there people listened in silence. It was a very small venue, the smallest of David's concerts I've seen, a very intimate atmosphere
so beautiful.
Magnificent this piano and voice version. 🚀
i love how no one sang so they could hear him:( i love him
Oh Bowie, you’re so missed...
Absolutely beautiful.
This is classic. I still don't really understand the story behind the lyrics. But no matter, it's my favorite song.
from what I understand it's about escaping reality
It’s about a young girl disconnected from her family and down on the world
@dianakelly8261 possibly the young girl being Bowie himself?❤
It's a message to Gaia's human vessel.
The most beautiful man to have walked this earth.
Hello 💖💖💖💖🤗🤗🤗 David Bowie
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I cried watching this. Such a beautiful performance, and the crowd in silence just appreciating... Thank you!
Gone but never, ever gone. I love you.
This is everything I hoped it would be. Delightfully tender rendition.
thank you mr bowie for this beautiful song
DAVID PER SEMPRE NEL NOSTRO CUORE ...
What an absolutely beautiful man and soul, I miss him so much.
His voice was actually nice
This man is the definition of extraordinary!
his vibrato is so nice
This gave me the chills, we love you forever heroes never truly die❤️
Thank you for gift on my birthday✌
Happy birthday
In these dark times, this is the soul light!
Rock in peace
This is the most beautiful Live Of Mars Live
THE GENIUS! LOVE XX
This is the best version of him singing this that I’ve ever heard.
I love his smoky voice. Unique and beautiful.
We need some more live shows released on DVD/Blu-ray! There's so many tours not officially released, it's madness! It jumps from Glass Spider tour to Reality tour but where's heathen , earthling, outside etc?
Love and miss Bowie so much ⚡❤
Oh, Starman. How much I miss you❤❤!!
What I would give to see David Bowie live. R.I.P to one of the greatest music legends ever
I love it. This is beautiful. One of the greatest songs ever written!
The voice, man the voice... Miss you David ❤️
