This was fascinating, in fact one of the very best interviews. Alan asked some very thoughtful and intelligent questions and Bowie graciously provided well thought out replies. Pls keep us supplied with more of these great videos
Thank you so much for posting this. I saw brief snippets of this interview in documentaries and have been eager to see the whole thing. It was a treat to stumble across this and the rest of your channel.
The sad thing is we never get to know artists like we used to, because the likes of Alan Yentob just don't exist anymore. I really wish they had spoken for longer and had more chats...its seems like they had a warmth and respect for each other. I suppose the truth as well, is that very few people today are as interesting and authentic as Bowie. He just had "it", a kind of aura and magic right from the start and right until the end.
I think u r right about the likes of this interviewer don't exist today but I agree much more that the likes of Bowie don't exist today. He was so thoughtful and intelligent and articulate. He was a great artist who had a wonderful mind and could express himself so well. I miss him.
Love all of this. Life on Mars analysis was pretty interesting. Bowie was such an intelligent articulate and introspective guy that he gave great interviews.
