Bowie was the man. He is SO missed. Heroes is a great song!

I'm 70 and have seen so many artists in concert. David Bowie had more charisma on stage than anyone I have seen. I saw him in the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, and his last concet tour. Sorely missed...

You guys NEED to hit "Blackstar" official video. His vision. His knowledge of his impending death. One of the best pieces of art I've ever seen from any performer.

Bowie, one of our absolutely best musicians ever walked on the earth, may he RIP

"Heroes" is a Berlin song. "Standing by the Wall" was a reference to Bowie seeing Producer Tony Visconti literally standing next to the Berlin Wall during the recording sessions for the "Heroes" album. No coincidence that this great song hit home so hard there. Convergence of art, intent and execution right there.

The black star album is an exwie was forever inspired and intriguing.Forever evolving. His my Hero. ❤

God, he was amazing. We're so lucky to have been alive at the same time as Bowie.

Bowie set the trends after he lived them 3 years before. Everyone had to catch up to him even though he was already on to something new!

There is a version of this video with about five minutes of banter with the audience…. Bowie is just so cool.

You have to admit that we have some of best musicians in our little country 🇬🇧

Bowie "CHINA GIRL" is sooo good! (studio version) ❤

His voice.......his voice is everything ❤ I still get misty eyed when i watch him 😢

Despite it not being a Bowie original, my favorite Bowie experience was as a 7 yr old, his Bing Crosby 1977 Christmas Special Duet of Little Drummer Boy...need to see it as it was on TV... Bing was the ultimate professional of letting David shine on Bing's special....Still very special listening to that performance. Cheers!

He just oozes coolness

A&A, you'll love his "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)" and "Modern Love" !!!

David bowie, one of the greatest musical artists of all time. A sad day when he left us.

I saw him at Longchamps in Paris in 1982 on the Serious Moonlight tour ... He walked out onto a vast stage with scattered musicians and just filled the whole space with his magnetic presence... first time with blond hair and a sky blue suit. Amazing.

Banger, hit Ashes to Ashes and Cat People other great ones by Bowie!

How fortunate we are to live in a universe that encompasses David Bowie's genius. I am grateful.

"The Candidate" and it's segue into "Rebel Rebel" on Diamond Dogs is an experience...

It was his last tour ever. Seeing him live was beyond thrilling!!! The Beacon theatre in New York a small venue fabulous venue. At the risk of sounding biased my dear friend Pete keppler was his sound engineer on his last tour and the band, recordings and live videos never sounded so great!! makes such a difference the sound person!!! Earl slick on guitar added that extra!! to a great band Bowie grew into a beautiful philosopher and carrier of messages in love and compassion and as Alex said a man of the people!!! ❤

I saw David in concert back in 1983, he was fantastic!!!😊❤️

I love the German version of this song that is played at the end of Jo Jo Rabbit.

I recommend: David Bowie & Annie Lennox "Under Pressure" (Freddie's Tribute Concert) Annie is a total diva 😍

First saw him in 1976 and I was blown away how this one man held the whole audience in his hand - Never missed a Bowie concert after that - The Biggest influence on my life

I didn’t miss a Bowie show from the mid 70s until his last tour. My daughter loved him as a baby. His music always calmed her down, so when she was about 5, we went to his show, sat down front and she didn’t move. 😍. Bowie was very kind with no ego when meeting him. I did cry when he died.

Another awesome live Bowie video is "Hallo Spaceboy" with the Foo Fighters. You watch that one, and you'll have to hit the banger button.

bowie is one of those few artists you can watch over and over. He is mesmerizing.

Try to find his performances from The Concert for NYC post 9/11. He started the show with Simon and Garfunkel’s America (an amazing solo performance while sitting on the stage), and then he broke into Heroes. Amazing performance as were all the performances that night.

Bowie never disappoints

His music was so wonderfully diverse, and remained vibrant and creative until the very end. He was so incredible live. Saw him twice, Serious Moonlight tour in 83 and the Sound and Vision tour in 90. Both beyond amazing, such wonderful memories. God, I miss him.

More Bowie has to be "Stay," the closing banger from the superb Station to Station album. which is a must-listen from beginning to end experience, because it's a whole package like few others.

Always so thankful I got to see him live. One of only a handful of people that have passed that truly affected me on a soul level. I remember it feeling like part of my childhood had died and crying freely- standing alone in my living room. Bowie is an icon.

In 1997 Bowie had a concert that changed my musical life forever. One of those ahh ha moments in life that you get. He did MTVs “Live From The 10 Spot”. Holy holy holy crap. Sooooo good. I recorded it on my VCR, dubbed the audio to a cassette tape and had that tape on repeat for years. I know how much you liked “Quicksand” from the “Hunky Dory” album and that is the first song he sings. It sold me on this guy. 1997 Bowie in concert supporting his album “Earthling” brought some great reinventions of his already classic songs. Trust me guys, 1997 live Bowie is amazingly amazing.

oooh god, the man was SO magnetic live. And this song has one of the best slow-burn build-ups of ALL TIME.

I saw him live six times. He was amazing, especially at Glastonbury 2000. That was one of those epic all time great concerts. Life on Mars from that set would be a great one to hit

His Live Aid performance was incredible. In fact, you should definitely watch the whole event. You would not believe the spectacle that was.

The slow burn beginning was something which Bowie introduced to his live sets - the studio version comes straight out of the gates full-on.

Briean Eno and Robert Fripp on the original studio version. King Crimson would play it live

💜 My favorite vocal performance of his is his cover of “Wild Is the Wind”. So amazing. Also, “Look Back in Anger” from his Lodger album is a fav. 💜

"Conquistador" by Procol Harum, live with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra in 1971.

David Bowie was a man that just had that aura around him, that in his presence makes you just sit there in awe. There's not many people like that.

Bowie is simply magic! Saw him on The Glass Spider tour in '87 (when i was 20) at the huge Pontiac Silverdome in Michigan. Waited in line with friends for two days to get tickets, as was the norm back then for pretty much all concerts. Pretty sure he sold out all 80,000 seats in a day. He brought Peter Frampton basically out of retirement to play guitar on that tour, so was an added bonus to get to see him play live.

Can’t explain it but every time I watch this I get tears running down my cheek. Just makes me so happy.

I fell in love with Bowie in 1974. Great Performer. ♥️🎼🕊️🎼♥️🎼🕊️♥️

This may be my favorite Bowie song. It is incredible. I started listening to Bowie in 7th grade, I think. I am now 64. Bowie's death shook me. I cried.

I’m not the biggest Bowie fan but that was FANTASTIC!

I never got to see Bowie, never met Bowie, but he always felt so intimately familiar and his music spoke to me so directly that he and his energy became a vital part of my life somewhere along the way. I have a giant framed portrait of latter-year Bowie hanging in my living room as a reminder that you don’t have to age out of your own creativity or youthful spirit. You and you alone get to forge your own way in life and in art. I can’t express how much he’s missed in this world.

I know you guys like Queen. Check out Bowie doing "Under Pressure" with his bass player Gail Anne Dorsey sinning Freddie's part on his Reality Tour - The whole tour film is top class!

i only saw Bowie once, and it was the tour with Nine Inch Nails. Best transition between bands i've ever seen: NIN came back for an encore or three, and they started playing Bowie songs. As they played band members swapped out from NIN's to Bowie's, and for the last song, Bowie came out and sang it with Trent Reznor. By then, it was all Bowie's band, so when they were done, Trent left the stage and boom, it was all Bowie. No house lights up, killing time while new equipment was set up... none of that. they all used the same stage. The way this allowed the energy to continue until Bowie was done was incredible. (And of course Trent came back for some of Bowie's encore).

Bowie makes me smile. "Shining beacon of light" is spot on.

Nothing but LOVE for that man!! I was crying before it was halfway over. Seeing him so youthful and vibrant in 2002!! Thank you God for talents like that coming into our lives! Another amazing live performance is from a band not heard enough on here (maybe they block?) is U2!! Either "I Will Follow" from Red Rocks or "Bad" from Live Aid! Prayers going out to the people in KC.

One of the two 'coolest' human beings I've ever seen in person(about 15 rows back). He literally exuded a sublime confidence over everything he did, down to drinking water on stage if that's possible to make 'cool'. Miles Davis was even more impactful to me @ Grant Park( probably ten rows back) in Atlanta in the late '90s and he was the same but more of a supreme leader in confidence than the more zen Bowie.

Thank you for listening to Bowie, saw him on the 3 day US FESTIVAL, San Bernardino California 1983. 3 Days of Incredible awesome BANDS🎶♥️🎶

THANK YOU guys!! I'm not always in total agreement with your reactions to the music of my lifetime, but you guys totally nailed it with this one! 💚💙🩵💜

Stay... Bowie.

The arrangement was planned that way. As that song evolved over time in live performances he had the idea of it starting the song almost like a jam, like a throwaway and then it would get louder more serious more involved. The studio version is a whole other beast, with Tony Visconti (producer) inventing his famous three mike technique. Anyway you want incredible live Bowie, anything from 'A Reality Tour' is excellent, anything from Glastonbury phenomenal. both on DVD. It would be great if you could compare those two versions of "Heroes" to this one, I'm sure many people would like that. And yes also the Live Aid version. Also TVC15 from Live Aid and one of his greatest albums "Station to Station" is a must see.

So many decades of A+/S songs...so little time. Love so many. Love watching Alex chair boogie. I never sit still at live gigs!!

Most amazing and humble man. More of us need to live this way.

Kudos to whoever suggested exactly this version. There are countless, but this one rules over them all. Pure bliss. Since you mentioned Let's Dance, might I suggest the live version from Glastonbury 2000?

Love this video. You can see pure joy on his face.

I loved dancing to Modern Love when I was young!! It always filled the dance floor!!

Live Aid was a spectacular performance too.

There will NEVER be a voice or artist like him. Glad I saw it all. Respect

Saw David 3 times his music was a great part of my life, starting in the 60's he went thru so many cha cha changes,many generations keep him in Fame and they will for many more.. 💔 miss him so much 😢 Gary, please more bowie reactions.

Rebel Rebel live while wearing an electric blue sharkskin suit....absolutely the king of cool

I would have paid Taylor Swift money have been there for that performance. The remarkable thing was the connection between Bowie and the crowd. Rare rare rare at that level. Bravo David!!!

The most incredible stage presence

My fav vetsion of this master piece!

I still contend that the very best live version of "Heroes" is the one from Bowie's 1978 live album STAGE.

Thanks from Berlin! ❤

Earl Slick... killing it on guitar.

This was a good example of why Bowie was as big as he was. He was performing, in the best possible way. He was being the amazing stage presence and actor that he became over the years and everyone expected him to be. We only get a glimpse of one side of him when he’s on stage. I think he had many different sides that different people, from other parts of his life would only see but this was his performance side.

"Cat People", "Modern Love", and "China Girl" all rock

He was one of my first stadium concerts, during The Glass Spider Tour. So glad that I got to see him once. Even though I was a young teen.

I’m not usually proud to be British, but back in the day, I honestly think musically we had some of the best musicians, certainly in the Western world. Great song writers too.

A true genius, his writing and singing totally original. Missed.

Glad you came back to this song, I don't believe the studio version knocked you over. It's definitely in my Top 5 Bowie songs. You chould check out the extended version of "Cat People (Putting Out Fire)." It's equally amazing. You ever consider doing a live stream of songs you have since reassessed? Or maybe that's against your policy

If there are any sound pros here, the mic management Bowie installs during each phrase is glorious. No presets necessary with this guy.

Bowie was just riveting live!

Legend

From Ziggy Stardust to this...amazing!

I was lucky to see David Bowie in 1982 at MSG. In NYC. Stood on line to get tickets overnight! With my friends. A Legend!

One of my favorite live performances. The crowd is half of the energy and it’s so important here 😊

He's got an album called 'Earthlings' every song is a banger boys...

I was 20 when I saw Bowie on The Serious Moonlight Tour, in Toronto (1983) "Modern Love" is a great live performance video; from that tour.

Bowie is so good. I love it when he hits the end of his range and his voice cracks a couple of times in the beginning. He let it do that it is great - shows how much perfection is overrated. He really did a great job on this live performance. Not sure if you have done Under Pressure with David and Freddie collaborating.

David Bowie was a kind of magician😍. Theu did that, again, with the crowd!

Genius barely describes his shapeshifting talent. He lived in and developed his chops in a pub in the town where I was born. His song "Memory of a free festival" is an homage to the event he and the local music collective he was a part of put on in the town in 1969 as he was on the cusp of greatness. He was always looking for something new or something more and his loss hit everyone who grew up with his music like a ton of bricks.

Not sure if you reacted to the LIVE performance of Queen with David BOWIE singing "UNDER PRESSURE". It's soooo good!! ❤❤

I’ve always loved what this song stands for.

Absolute Beginners is a great one of Bowie's 80s songs, and I have a soft spot for loving the alien.

Saw Bowie on the Glass Spider tour. Blew me away. Peter Frampton on guitar. Bowie was a master of glam on the stage. Thanks for this version guys.

love this version. he plays it rely sly for the first half and then they go full blast like the studio version. Brilliant.

In addition to being an exceptional and creative artist, many entertainment professionals who met him are unanimous in saying that David Bowie in addition to being physically elegant, he was also humanly elegant, courteous, polite and of great kindness 🙏

Heroes is Bowie's tribute to the great Lou Reed of te Velvet Underground. The song is right out of thr velvet's playbook and Bowie's sings the lyrics in Reed's style. Bowie produced Reed's second solo album whose "Walk on the Wild Side' you shoud react to.

Space Oddity.. BoWiE’s 50 th birthday concert live performance .. Absolutely magical ..

Love this song! A fave of mine always in rotation! Bowie was a musical genius and so creative! I love the video of China Girl! We had the best music 60’s & 70’s!

Bowie was a good friend of David Gilmour. He did "Arnold Layne" at the Royal Albert Hall. Another great performance. ✌

Bowie and Lou Reed “Waiting for the Man” at Bowie’s 50th birthday celebration concert. Great music and so fun
