The video is a work of art. I posted on this a long time ago and was surprised by the love for the video/song

It's perfect. I wish he would claim this one as a live standard. He seems to have dropped it after '99. Shame.

It's a little masterpiece, very mature and soulful, but with a modern touch. This song and the Hours album showed that Bowie still had it after all that dreadful experiments with techno and industrial rock (sorry, but I can't stand the Outside-Earthling era).

Earthling is one my least favourite Bowie albums. I like half of the stuff of Outside, but I can't stand Earthling demon sounds like a 7 year old child trying to copy a Prodigy album... demon

Love that song, and the video is amazing. The young Bowie in the video is creepy.

It's gorgeous. And what's more, it's something most people don't expect from the B-Man: it's simple and understated.

Each time I hear the song or see the video I love it more.

I like Outside, but to each their own. smile

Does anyone know who played young Bowie in that vid? It looks like Christian Bale with an eating disorder. lol

This song has special memories to me. I bought the cassette single in London right after I had moved there and was still living in pretty dysmal conditions. I was feeling hopeless and was completely out of money, hardly could afford to eat. I'd listen to the song in my walkman in the rain, and I haven't forgot the feeling since.

I am not saying the song cheered me up or anything. lol
