Nearly ten years before his career took off. Goes to show few artists hit stardom over night. One of the greatest musicians, songwriters of modern times.

Am I allowed to love every character and every appearance that David ever had? 😳 He was my idol and my 11 year older than me mentor. In Heathen and The Next Day, he made it possible to be older and attractive and cool. His music was always what gave me a place to be home, and a home as my husband's health imploded and my own Bipolar Disorder became uncontrollable. Bowie was so much to me. His death was--and is--devastating.

Yes you are allowed. Really related to your comment. Rather, than Heathen and Next Day showing you could be old, attractive, hip to the groove, and relevant to a young crowd, I’d say this was first apparent in a new way not done by other artists in his Glass Spider Tour with SIOUXSIE opening and Sound and Vision tour. The S&V tour I was 15. Bowie seemed like God to my clique but the age seemed ancient. He was in his 40’s!!! At both stadium LA shows, there were legions of teenage youth culture kids who worshipped him like it was 72 again. Goths, mods, Indie Smiths kids, 77 era punks, and Tri colored haired eclectic teenage freaks were all their next to the 70’s fans now Moms and Dads. To us 15 year olds Bowie was timeless, and attractive as the girls and one guy, explained their fantasies of what theyde do to Bowie in a backstage to hotel scenario. There was no one else that age that had that effect on teens. No we were not your normal teens but neither were the kids at his 70’s shows. The age barrier you bring up is one seldomly mentioned, he did show that you could go past 40, 45 , 50 and not descend into a Dad Bod, look cool, collaborate with 20’s musicians, all with grace, not trying desperately to be 22. AGISM may be his most amazing and notable barrier he broke seemingly effortlessly. Now I’m 40 and follow his lead, refusing to resort to plastic surgery nor accepting the myth that you must be bald fat poorly dressed, irrelevant with only nostalgic tastes, when you pass 30.

I DO understand! When my brother called me about Bowie's death I told him it can't be real cosI just dreamed about him. But unfortunately it WAS real. The man who had been so important during my formative years... the man that had been there during all the years that I listened to music. The man who said "be brave enough to be yourself". Of course he couldn't be dead? But. He. Was. I had never cried overy celebrities death, but over him I cried buckets full. It felt like a member of my family had died. After 8 years I am still sad that he is no longer with us. I have the "Blackstar" album but still haven't listened to it because it would make his passing too real for me... But I also feel so happy and privileged that I have lived in the time that HE was around. David Bowie, Ziggy Stardust, The Thin White Duke, Thomas Jerome Newton, and more names that I can't think of right now. Thank you for being you. Thank you for lighting up our lives. For being our teacher. Now you are beyond all the pain, beyond the stars. Hope to meet you sometimes, in the beyond...

The diversity of his work is remarkable, his creativity boundless, there's something for everyone, he truly was/is global. Even people who don't like Bowie, like Bowie............

yeah wish people saw him more as him rather than Ziggy and his open queerness he expressed back then. Like Iman said she liked him as David Jones rather than David Bowie as he was a character No matter what his sexuality actually was as he later regretted coming out and not showing much attraction to men anymore as it basically died with Ziggy, he had a lot of great women in his life and felt happy and had two amazing children Ziggy ans how he expressed himself was a great part of his life and he enjoyed it while it lasted but sometimes a character has to end and Ziggy began to take a toll on his health. Each part of his life made him improve more into the man he died as.

The cornucopia of wild mispronunciations in this one nearly did me in. Thank you for the laughs! 😅😅😅 Very good biography - thanks for that, too.

I loved that david was so inspired to do music in his own unique style that he sang on his deathbed. What a dedicant to the muse he was...What a beautiful soul. ❤❤

He’s my all time favourite I have a signed black & white photo of him & Jagger at a dinner signed by both of them ❤ my little pomapoo dog is named Bowie, he also staued in a beautiful old restored Queenslander house in the Tweed Vally Australia where he wrote China Girl, we lived not far from him while he was there, he’s a legend loved him in The Man Who Fell To Earth, my daughter loved him when she was a kid in Labyrinth, he was just an idol 2 me & always will be ❤thanx Bowie 4 all the years of entertainment 💯✌🏼👽 he was also on the ball with the music scene in late 90’s where he had said internet music streaming will change music 4 ever iTunes etc, he made sure he had the rights to his music so it c couldn’t be bout smart guy ❤

"The Labyrinth" along with it's Soundtrack are what made my youth, along with Queen...

i was lucky enough to see 'the man who fell to earth'. my first experience with david bowie.

Theres a few people i'd really love to see you guys do a video on like :ryan gosling, joaquin phoenix,willem dafoe, jake gyllenhaal

A gift in early 70s Ziggy Stardust, mom said get rid of that album, so I gave it away. The receiver loved it.

David Bowie started off quite theatrical. "Gimmicky" even. He ended up a straight up, super rock n' roller! 🤔👍🙂

It's when you watch documentary's about him you do realise how much he impacted you personally. A legend.

the guy dancing whilst wearing the un coolest garment known to man - a Tank Top & only he sharing the frame with Bowie & Ronson during Starman at TOTP was very funny in my opinion but must’ve forged an iconic look as it was still being employed by middle aged English Accountants reaching into the late 1980s although most never attempted dancing beyond weddings. I often wonder how that young chap hadn’t gained greater appreciation or fame . Thankyou for this presentation which improved a grey autumnal afternoon in grey England immensely. ❤️😁👍

yeah his open queer appearance definitely inspired a lot of queer people who were afraid to come out and express themselves a lot of people including myself found Ziggy Stardust as a queer idol. What made me happy is that people ridiculing David didn’t stop him from doing drag and wearing makeup and looking more androgynous

Sometimes, even a star in the sky, dies out.

I so wish the so and so had written an autobiography. I'm sure Bowie would have some type of journal somewhere.

He was my cousin. Met him two times. Shy and pleasant.

RIP Dabid Boeie❤❤❤❤

There must be loads of unreleased stuff in the Bowie vaults. I was hoping more would’ve come out since his death but very little has. We got the album Toy but not much else

Please, make a video about Chester Bennington

I heard black star I knew immediately he was dying no surprise.. I had an interesting meditation years later where I saw a face of muscles and flesh and a voice said “don’t be afraid keep looking” skin came back on and it was how he looked in the serious moonlight tour said.” you fell in love with an image.” I said” yes, I know.” Then he said “ I am continuing to do art over here without limitation-this is who I really am” I felt the spirit and a skull with the intricate designs of the Mexican day of the dead appeared vivid before me”

I don't thinik you're correct about a 12-string Gibson guitar. Bowie's early 12-string was a Hagstrom. He was also famously not concerned with gear, or brands, and so the Gibson claims makes little sense - it's an expensive high end guitar and best I can determine Bowie didn't give a shit about that.

Definitely a London...ladd.

I’m a hairstylist, David Bowie hair was exciting, so off I went

Greatest Emancipator ever.

Studied Mime with Kemp , about as far from pantomime as you can get. He played a Hagstrom 12 string not a Gibson , why am I still watching this? The power of Bowie! Oh and Jones was not his stage name , wow this vid gets me booming Dave Glimmer? Please make it stop.

A very interesting, informative video. Some of which, was unknown to me. Personally, I think his output from 1971-80 is outstanding. After he re-invented himself as "David Vegas" and Let's Dance. He lost his creativeness and credibility. He sold out. The following album "Tonight" bombed. After that, he was "Bowie Greatest Hits" essentially. Salutations, from Kensington and Chelsea; in London. Home city of David Jones.

What an amazing talent. Songwriter, Singer, Painter, Author, Actor , Husband and Father. I'm sure his 1st marriage was tough during the 1970s. Glad his son Duncan, got to see his father clean up in the 1980s/1990s. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nJx906h7l7yddrg.html

Talk bout bob dylan

Positively Narcissist

The mispronunciation in this video is extremely annoying

Though this doc is accurate in a number of surprising ways, it is also WRONG in an equally number of surprising ways, in ways it shouldn't. I gave up at the 26:27 mark and do not plan to waste more time watching it, nor will I bother with any of your other docs, "Biographer." If you're going to do biographies of people, maybe you should consider making sure you have your fucking facts correct. Also, when it comes to someone like Bowie, whose appearance changed remarkably between the late 60's through the early 80's, but never stayed completely the same even after that, you need to sync up the images with the chronology of the storytelling. I mean seriously, if you did one of The Beatles and were talking about things that occurred in 1965, you wouldn't should images of them circa the Sgt. Pepper era, would you? Well, YOU probably would, seeing as you barely cared with regards to Bowie. Get your facts STRAIGHT. There are other doc-oriented channels who do and they have a FAR LARGER number of subs. Get it together or just get out.

All that Coke may have taken years off his life; it's just processed with poisons. And too bad all that money went to some pretty bad criminals. The dark side of Fame and being rich isn't nice.
