Lyrics
I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
And I'm absolutely sane
As long as we're together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean
Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true
Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can't shake
Oh we're absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake
As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
We're certain to succeed
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Sail over heartaches
Just like the films
If there's reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true
About David Bowie:
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

Back in 1985 I was staying in a youth hostel in London near where the cafe that is used starting at 3:16 of the video. I just happened to go out for a night walk and saw some bright lights near the cafe and David Bowie and the Zebra lady were working on the video. Between takes he came over to a few of us and talked for a few minutes. He was a very cool guy. When the director called him over he said "Sorry guys, I've got to go". He gave me a couple of autographs. I have old slide photos somewhere that I took while the video was being made. It was a very cool experience and now a nice memory.

A man has two deaths, his actual death and the second death is when his name stops being mentioned. Bowie will only have one death.

1985 and I'm sitting in my Ford Capri outside a pub waiting for my girlfriend. This came on the radio, she got in the car and I don't think I've ever felt so in love as I did then. This song always brought that memory back and I'll be forever grateful. Cheers David.

This man is one of the reasons I try to believe in some kind of afterlife. I can't just accept that a spirit and a mind like this can simply disappear.

This is such a bangin' song. Great vocals, keyboards, saxophone, everything about it is fantastic to me.

What a celebration of music this is. The guitar, the drums, sax, vocals, the whole thing. What a creative mind David had. Rest in Peace David, and thank you for the great, timeless music.

I was the cinematographer on this video, as well as the film Absolute Beginners. Julien Temple, whom I met at the National Film and Television school directed the video and the film. It was a hectic time for us & I remain forever grateful to Julien for trusting his film school friend to shoot with him for more than 10 years. This is one of my favourite pieces of work - one of the rare opportunities I got to shoot black and white which I absolutely love: we went on to make "Jazzin for Blue Jean" with David who was the one of the greatest musicians and human beings I ever met back in those heady 80's days. Nice to see it immortalised on uTube with a decent copy of the original..
