NOTE: I've de-tuned my guitar for this lesson to Standard D tuning so I can sing the parts for you.

Great stuff-I had just started taking guitar lessons when this came out (1969) andremember my guitar teacher who played on a rock n roll band dismissing it as rubbish and me thinking I want to play this!!!Geat song-great lesson and great memories.Thanks
Thanks for another video Rob .I was lucky to see Bowie play this at B'ham Town Hall he came on do this and one other song as part of the warm up acts for Jethro Tull , when you see a concert for ten bob .Good old days .
Great opening chord. Simple but so effective and so appropriate to the sci-fi theme!
Thank you for an amazing lesson. By far the best teacher! I’ve always liked this song and now it’s within grasp.
Brilliant lesson Rob, thank you for your time and effort.
You’re a good singer pal , thanks for that . Great song and fun to play .
Rob, another great lesson , no one is offering these lessons in so much detail for FREE! . You have me interested in the guitar again .
Thanks very much Rob your lessons are great 👍
Great lesson love your enthusiasm, another one to add to my campfire collection!
Awesome. Saw Bowie three times love this.
I love this song, but always have difficulty remembering all the chords heh heh. Got the sheet gonna practice it. Always had trouble playing that Am/G chord because I was trying to play it without muting the A LOL. Also I always thought it was a B7 instead of a D7/F#, so no wonder it never sounded right. I still find that change hard to do though.
Thankyou Rob , a great song to learn . On the record , I'm sure you can hear an old .Stylophone (?) . Practice ahoy .
He loved his Barr chords, did Mr Bowie. Think he used them, for every chord, on his records.
Very nice lesson and performance. 👍👍👍
Thanks
Rob, you are a great teacher, thank you.
Love you, love you, LOVE you Rob. Thank you Maestro!

Great lesson just subbed 👍👍💯💯
That's a lovely guitar.
Brilliant Rob thanks for this 👏 excellent explanation and delivery. Have you had a look at Hollies Gasoline alley bred?
i have the same rhythm as you rob ...i just need faster fingers...spot on pal
just wondering if you can play something from the film the wicker man from 1973
Great interpretation, is it OK to use your Thumb on the 6th string, second Fret for the F# in the D/F# chord, I just find it easier?
Yes, that’s fine. 👍🏻
rob is your guitar tuned up different in this vid ? it sounds different key..Im playing along with you but all the chords sound different and im tuned up to concert pitch, eadgbe. unless im drunk or Ganning daft
We play it differently. I learned it starting with a fm7
The first chord is an Fmaj7 it just has a bass E as well as the top E. gives it more body. 👍🏻
Yes, but I think you are playing it with the second string open, so the C flattened to a B?
@@AdamHTI spotted this too, very unusual chord, but great. Cmaj7sus4/E ?
You seem to be in non-standard tuning Rob, are you just tuned down a tone to D?
Yes, I mentioned it in the description box and mid way through vid. Just makes it easier to sing. 👍🏻
Thanks
Thanks!
Thanks
