Never expected a Bowie drop today, this is gold

[arthuralford]

Any morning that starts with Bowie is a good one

Damn. This might be the most expressive rendition of this song I've ever seen. Hours is a really underrated album.

[puffs]

Every performance from this man gets his all. He was never disappointing, everything was raw, and genuine. It all came from the heart!

[marianne]

David Bowie will always remain a part of us 💔 🕯

The man never disappointed. This song always gives me the chills. Haunting but beautiful. He was truly a poet. Long live David Bowie.

I miss David Bowie so much.

When he died a local college radio station where I live played non-stop David Bowie for a full month.

David Bowie had more influence on my childhood / teenage years than my own Father. A David Bowie song was my favorite song at 7 years old. It actually pisses me off that my Dad is still alive at 86 yet Bowie is not.

I did see Bowie live a few times and he did not really do that great in concert yet it was well worth the ticket prices just to be in the same area as Bowie.

I've even been a member of the Church of David Bowie for about the last 15 years. They're on Facebook. 🔥❣️🔥❣️🔥❣️🔥❣️🔥

The album version of this song is already quite raw, but this performance took that up to 11.

[SHARONDAVIS-nhet]

An amazing song from our BOWIE. UK Rest in Peace Sir.

David Bowie - The gift that keeps on giving. 🙏

[davidweaver]

This version has done it again. I cried when he did it live on Later in 1999, and Ive just cried again, as I watch my favourite singer of all time perform with such emotion and feeling. Jeez, I miss David Bowie 😢 I feel we will never see his like again 😭❤️❤️🙏

[EJK]

Loved this song on the end credits of the American Psycho movie. It really fits with the ending.

[AmandaIngalls-bh]

David, if you can hear me in outer space somewhere, thank you. Your music is providing a badly needed distraction for how sad I feel right now.

[spidrfrommars]

I really love how we're adding more appreciation to hours... very underrated album of his, did not deserve the criticism the press gave it 😭

[andyparnham]

This song was used during the end credits of the film ‘Memento’, the Director, Christopher Nolan, originally wanted to use Radiohead’s song Paranoid Android instead but he couldn’t get the rights. Great live rendition of this Bowie song! 😊

[martinfitzgerald]

Anything David Bowie touched turned to gold.👏🏻👏🏻

[prayingmantis]

RIP David Bowie, we love you.. Gone but never forgotten

[jimduffy]
