Looks like it's Ashes to Ashes next???
Yes!
The credits in the beginning say Produced and Directed by "Mick Rock"... He just passed away the other day. A great British photographer who took many iconic photographs of David Bowie Queen and pictures of Freddie alone. He did the cover for "Queen 2" that inspired the beginning of the well known "Bohemian Rhapsody" silhouette, and many other videos and album covers including "Sheer Heart Attack" too. Mick Rock was very friendly with Freddie and David on a personal level and worked with other rock stars of that era. Very much a Rock Star in his own right.
This song by David was his first hit to make it. Inspired by the iconic walk on the moon. And was the intro to "Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" Check out "Ashes to Ashes" Major Tom makes another appearance on that song and on David's last album "Black Star" David was and is a true legend ... Who will always have a special place in my heart. You should listen to the album "Station to Station" in it's entirety. "Wild is the Wind" and "Word on a Wing" are beautiful ballads. David's voice is outstanding and Dereck the title track will blow your mind completely.
Rest Peacefully Starman...Miss you
🎶🌟🌹🎶
Should also listen to this one : czcams.com/video/KaOC9danxNo/video.html&ab_channel=RareEarth made by a real astronaut as a tribute.
I'd really like to hear your reaction to "Golden Years" due to it's incredibly crisp accoustics and very unique soundscape. But I'm not going to complain about Any Bowie. Golden Years is seriously yummy ear candy.
"Oh darn it! I have to listen to a David Bowie song instead of a David Bowie song??? That is so mean!"
My poor Dereck, if you discover Bowie, you have not finished having tears in the eyes of happiness so much this artist of genius created hundreds of admirable songs.
czcams.com/video/KaOC9danxNo/video.html
There will never be another one like Bowie a masterful singer, songwriter, and performer ❤️✌️
David Bowie is a real genius. You can't go wrong with him.
There's a lot of masterpiece you should check by him .
"Changes", Ziggy Stardust", Ashes To Ashes", "Fame", "Life on Mars", "Let's Dance", "Modern Love", "Blackstar" and many many many others
Under pressure, The heart's filthy lesson, Andy Warhol, etc, etc. So many good songs, the repertoire is vast.
I'm a big fan of songs like starman also - very joyus.
Rebel Rebel
Suffragette City
To name some others!
Especially "Let's dance"👍. You seem to like 1980s.
Where are we now is a masterpiece
Moonage Daydream!
A lot of Bowie songs have him layering all the backing vocals himself. The man was so far ahead of anyone around him at the time , it took the world a while to catch up. ❤
There is only one song that can follow that. "Ashes to Ashes". The two songs were recorded 10 years apart but Bowie went through so many phases that it was very different. Please react to it very soon!
Yes, Sue, I thought of this one as well!
Ashes to Ashes, Life on Mars and Ziggy Stardust are must do reactions for Bowie's early music.
Bowie updated the Major Tom story 11 years later on a song called "Ashes to ashes". I think you'd love it.
David Bowie at his best.
2001 A Space Odyssey was an inspiration for this song, undoubtedly but an even bigger influence was the ongoing space programme and the upcoming Apollo 11 mission to the Moon. The song was released just before the Moon landing took place. :)
Bowie forever.
Space Oddity, a classic, can never be duplicated. This one was the 1972 re-release of Space Oddity (by far my favourite). It was originally released in 1969, you should try to see the video to that. Basically the same song but without the signature use of the Stylophone! Just unique.
czcams.com/video/63qvJoQLumw/video.html
eat this.
@@malachycarson5846 Interesting to see that one and in a different key too - but this is the 1969 one I was talking about. Different again!
czcams.com/video/tRMZ_5WYmCg/video.html
Wait, you've never heard Space Oddity before? How is that possible? 😲 Welcome to the magical world of David Bowie. He was simply amazing.
Let's face it- he's not played that much. And where? On radio? Who listen to the radio these days?
@@flugsven me!!
@@carolynthompson3291 Awesome- but it's not usual among younger people.
I do too, but I'm a rather old woman, so.. 🤷🏼♀️
There is no one that will ever be cooler than David Bowie. The look on your face is priceless. I have loved him since I was 13 years old. I am now 61. He's a genius.
I have also ..same
I’m 32 and I was mortified when Bowie passed away
Late 60s/Early 70s .. Stereo was still something special, Space was HOT and the very first analog synths was edging in .. all to be played with
Apparently in 1969 (its origional release) this was 'banned by the BBC' until Apollo 11 had safely returned home.
This was originally released in the UK in 1969 and reached number 5 on the singles chart .. it was re-issued in 1975 and made number 1 ... NASA were going to use it as their theme for the Apollo launches but then they realised the lyrics weren't appropriate
Magnifique titre d'un fantastique Bowie. Bowie's the best, and this song is cult ❤️
Awesome song & reaction
There will only be one Bowie
More Bowie reactions please! When I first played this on a 12 String Guitar, I found myself learning chords that I didn't even know existed. Bowie's music compositions are pure genius.
This was Bowie in his Ziggy stardust character.please check out life on Mars and my fav starman
It was during this period that Freddie Mercury met David ... At Kensington Market in London. Freddie and Roger Taylor ran a clothes stand there, and they sold him a pair of boots 😉 Freddie even served as his roadie a few times 😁
You’ve been exposed to Bowie, now there is sooo much to hear and absorb. Bowie was to the 70s what The Beatles were to the 60s. I’d recommend Life on Mars, Aladdin Sane, Moonage Daydream, Station to Station, the Man Who Sold the World, Fascination, Ashes to Ashes, Black Star, so many amazing songs to discover!
Blackstar needs to be after all those, because it is such a final piece for him.
As the world falls down too
I love him so much… I miss him 😭
Very cool Dereck😉. Thanks you 🙏for David Bowie ( The best for me ) 🎼👍
Bowie was a total genius, love this along with "Heroes" and "Ashes To Ashes"!!!
Oh, yes, some David Bowie finally! Thanks Dereck! There isn’t enough David Bowie’s songs on your channel. 😉 Could I hope for more in the future?
DAVID BOWIE.......epic
Queen and David Bowie, Under Pressure, fantastic song
Just fantatsic...love this song so much
It reminds me when I discover Bowie when I was 20. It was the beginning of a new world. It leads me to new music, new novelist, new movies etc… Bowie is my god and I am so happy I had the chance to see him once in concert. He was just amazing.
So many great songs…. Among the not that famous one you can try Joe the Lion or Blackout, the Beauty and the beast. Just give energy !
And to think that was from late 60's.Bowie is my music idol.Was lucky enough to see him live twice .both brillant and 40 years apart. The man just got better with age .Please explore him.
Bowie. Genius musician. Chameleon. ❤
The keyboards are courtesy of the legendary (and very young) Rick Wakeman who did the whole thing in one take. Bowie offered him a gig with the Spiders from Mars on the same day he joined Yes.
A real classic!!
Grew up with ...David Bowie..very unique. ,original, theatrical singer,... a.
Brit ..of course!!.....Brilliant ..yes!!
Davie Bowie was brilliant. Genius+ level.
Golden Years, Fame, Suffargette City, Let's Dance, Modern Love, and on and on...
You should check Klaus Nomi "The Cold Song"... David Bowie liked him and he even performed with him... And talking about german music, Bowie was also an early fan on Kraftwerk...
I appreciate the way you rewind after cutting in at an unfortunate moment. That's surprisingly uncommon in reaction videos.
I try lol
When I was 10 it’s great to hear 👂 different music great
Amazing song from one of the most amazing artists EVER... You GOT to react to "Life on Mars?" official video, it's incredible...
It's always fascinating, the gap between Euros and Yankees ;). I'm 47, a new wave/ classic rock/metalhead and everything in between. It still shocks me when Bowie is DISCOVERED when to me it's such an evidence. But it's still great to see Dereck get his head BLOWN OFF ! Keep it up you're a great one D:) !
Someone on CZcams made a mix with this song and a real lift off of the space shuttle :so emotional
Now you only need to check out a few dozen albums and about 200 songs! Enjoy the journey. I think Bowie is one of the greatest singer/songwriters of all time.
David Bowie - also one of the LEGENDS hat will never die!
My god Dereck , welcome to the world of this incredible genius that is David Bowie , you will have so much more classic song to discover from that awesome artist!!
"ahead of it's time" means simply that others decided this was a good idea and copy it... everything Bowie from this album to 1983 was ahead of the game and very original. Check out Diamond Dogs for another head trip.
If you want to hear a Bowie song with a ton of layers, try "Heroes".
💜💜💜
Splendide chanson d'un splendide artiste, merci !
What's nice on the video is you see agony in Bowie's face when he says "and I think my spaceship knows which way to go." It confirms my feeling that the crisis occurs in the character's mind before the spaceship goes offline. I always get the feeling that Major Tom's demise is a suicide. I know it's not the only interpretation, but that's always how the story feels to me.
Another song that gets overlooked is "Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud." Nice to react to some deep tracks as well.
It's more than unbelievable... it's genius
I love this song , fantastic....
You have SO much to discover with Bowie! One of the true giants of modern popular music and one of the most innovative and influential music artists of all-time! When it comes to influence, probably only The Beatles rank higher than Bowie! An incredible artist, who'd change his stage persona every few years, to match his changes in musical style. So much incredible music, he's a hero and an icon to the disenfranchised and marginalised, to freaks, rebels and minorities. Through his art alone, he probably did more to advance the cause of lgbtq equality than most activist organisations. An incredibly intelligent, funny and thoughtful man, yet very private at the same time. We will never see his like again. His death caused shockwaves around the World. It was headline news and World leaders queued up to praise him, including both President Obama and the Pope. The British Parliament even paused official business to laud him and pay their respects. He's sorely missed!
We appreciate that you recognize Bowie as a true god of music 😆
Bowie was a genius. A true genius. All is discography is a treasure. Enjoy my friend.
Iconic song.
David Bowie........a truly creative genius! Grew up with him and he's in our DNA in the UK. So iconic and instantly recognisable.
Bowie. The Master.
Now watch the ultimate hommage to this song, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty by Ben Stiller...
Love it so much...
this was written in 1969. the other guy (I don't know who he is) was referring to this song. Bowie vocals were practically all first takes what you hear on the record is what he sang only once live in the studio and he was capable of singing two times the same vocal to double his vocal without noticeble difference his pitch was superhuman.
Seeing you react to the oldest love of my life, makes me realize why I love Chenyu Hua. It seems this is a young "Chinese Bowie", lol...
Cher Dereck David Bowie est unique inégalable
Great respectful reaction to the one and only David (jones) Bowie, iam 58yrs old and it was this song that got me hooked on music.if you get a chance there is a video on CZcams from Tony Viscotti who was Bowies producer on Heroes, its a break down of how the song evolved from just a bit or sound and then it took off from there.
David Bowie such a beautiful unearthly creature...so so so missed
Came for Bowie and enjoyed your reaction! New sub and greetings from Illinois!
His glam rock years
Loved your reaction. Bowie was peerless in the 70’s. Constantly changing and evolving when other artists, once they found success stuck with the sound that brought them success and were forever stuck in a rut. You never knew what Bowie’s next album was going to be like. Major Tom became an important talisman for Bowie. He revisited him in Ashes to Ashes from his 1980 album Scary Monsters and again on his final album Blackstar; not lyrically but Major Tom appears in the video for the title track.
hand claps! get the flip outa here,,youre too funny,i love it
I love the change in lyrics.....after trouble with the craft...."Here am I FLOATING on my tin can". So, Major Tom left the capsule (tin can) and is floating away "far above the moon". Cool lyrics.
Buf, there is so many great Bowie's songs to react to....
A lot of the instrumentation in this part of his career was arranged by Mick Ronson who was also the lead guitarist during his Ziggy Stardust phase.
Mick Ronson was also the guy that put all the instrumentation together on Lou Reeds breakthrough album, Transformer, that had the standout tracks Walk on the Wild Side and Perfect Day both of which are well worth checking out.
“Hand claps! Get the &@#! out of here!” Made me laugh. Love you, Dereck! Welcome to the Bowie rabbit hole. It’s a really, really rewarding one. I’m here for it all.
Welcome to the world of a musical genius ..enjoy the trip.
Dereck, PLEASE check out/do Station2Station by DB. Stunning piece!!
And of course "Heroes" too...
Masterpiece! And this was only one of his first masterpieces ... More to come in this group, I hope?
"Ashes to ashes" live now!
Mint you Dereck 💙
Hi Derek, Peter Schillings version was actually just a remake of this song, back then a lot of Germans did not understand the lyrics of English songs properly, so "translations" were quite common.
Suffragette City, Jean Genie, Fame, Fashion, Heroes
I remember when Space Oddity was first played on Radio 1 (in the UK). At that time Radio 1 was broadcast on 247m AM, so coupled with the fact that most of us were listening on tinny sounding transistor radios, it didn't sound anything like this. Mono record players were still prevalent in most teens bedrooms, so we didn't get to hear any of the stereo effects on the single either. For those whose parents had a stereo music centre, which were the rage then, you could get to hear the album version in stereo when they were out.
David Bowie= Musical Genius.
Please do the reaction of David Bowie's "Blackstar" as well. It's one of his last songs.
Astronaut, Chris Hadfield, brought his guitar up to the International Space Station, and performed this for the heavens and beyond.
Chris Hadfield: Canadian moustache rules ! ;)
@@samueldevulder His daughter was going to university over here in Dublin. When he flew over Ireland he said he was just keeping an eye on her :)
I love it, it's a delight! Bisous
David Bowie era un genio. Lo descubrí de pequeña Gracias a la película Labyrinth. Por el me encanta el glam rock. Está tiene un rollo muy psicodélico. Rock progresivo total. Nirvana tiene un cover de él the man who sold the world.
Bowie and Bing Crosby did Little Drummer Boy, fantastic. RIP David
Bowie was very experimental. You’ll hear lots of strange sounds that are sometimes haunting. He was a musical genius dating back to the late 60’s and remained relevant his entire career and beyond his death.
It may have been through the 2001 Odyssey lens but its about a Heroin OD.
Ooohhhh.... 2001 Space Odyssey. The best movie of all time. The kind of film you need to prepare for. Much more than just a film... It's cinematic philosophy. For an enhanced experience of Bowie from space, though not as Major Tom, see "The man who fell to earth".
David starred in a movie called "The Man Who Fell to Earth" You should watch that movie. David does voice layering..that's what it's called. Peter Schilling got Major Tom from this song. Yes this is 1969 .. The year we landed and walked on the moon. It didn't do well until its re-release 1972.
Also playing with David is his good friend, keyboard wizard Rick Wakeman, on Mellotron and Stylophone. Rick was offered a place in David Bowie's band but turned it down to join progressive rock band Yes.
I've been blessed to have seen DB 4 times ,each time a singular experience..
Great react . Ty!
Ps ~im new here.. have you ft. Brian Eno as yet ? Laurie Anderson? ( she has a great A/V collab w Nasa I saw not too long ago )
I love 2001 as well !
Life on Mars ? is also fantastic song
david bowie was a musical genius his look was also pretty unique due to him having different colored eyes.
*Major Tom*
Without forgetting *Hal*
Check out all of Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust & Alladin Sane
Interesting bit of info, when astronaut Chris Hadfield was on the International Space Station he mimed along to this very song. Then he filmed himself singing it for real 🥰
He went to the US looking like a hippy in a kaftan, which had become sooo mainstream, so he shook it up a bit and returned a God.
He toured with Blondie and Iggy Pop.
Infact, I think Ziggy came from Iggy, or the other way around.
If you haven't reviewed Peter Schilling - Major Tom. Give it a blast. Its recorded in German and English versions.
They took a lot of pride in production then.
