Bowie, David - Fame Lyrics
Fame, makes a man take things over
Fame, lets him loose, hard to swallow
Fame, puts you there where things are hollow
Fame
Fame, it's not your brain, it's just the flame
Fame
Fame, what you like is in the limo
Fame, what you get is no tomorrow
Fame, what you need you have to borrow
Fame
Fame, "Nein! It's mine!" is just his line
To bind your time, it drives you to, crime
Fame
Could it be the best, could it be?
Really be, really, babe?
Really, really?
Is it any wonder I reject you first?
Fame, fame, fame, fame
Is it any wonder you are too cool to fool
Fame
Fame, bully for you, chilly for me
Got to get a rain check on pain
Fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame,
fame
Fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame, fame,
fame
Fame, fame, fame
Fame
What's your name?
[whispered:]
Feeling so gay, feeling gay?
Brings so much pain?

“Nobody wants to help!!!”
NESSUNO VUOLE DARE UNA MANOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!
Was required to use this song as background music for a boy band music video (self-tape) audition! Lol!
plagiarism the song of James brown - Hot, David just change the letter.
Fancy pants Lady Gaga
Now associated with Matt Dillon smashing Uma thurmans face in.
Man this song was the 'whip' back in the day!! Bowie definitely got his ghetto pass with this one! Good cruisin' and weed smokin' music back then too.
My husband found this for me cause he knows I love it. Thx Daddy.
Is there anyone else that remembers this tune aptly used near the end of Rush?
who’s here because they actually genuinely love david bowie and not because they heard this song somewhere else? rip 💕 he was seriously magical, such a loss
I know right, true Bowie fans ❤️
1.8k people don't have fame
*DEDICATED TO NEIL YOUNG IN HOMAGE FOR 50 YEARS FAMOUS A REQUEST*
This is going to be my song when they carry me out of here 😁
When you place your feet on the sidewalk with that pep in yo step
Pinky's song Next Friday 😁😁
Funky as it needs to be.. You cant handle the next phase
David Bowie is a B-17 bomber
Neuralinked
Bowie & Lennon wrote Fame...and Carlos Alomar played guitar
This may be the first song of his I heard, but never knew was his. Until years later. Happens when you are an only child with nobody to tell you these important things.
Fame Fame Fame
You don't get Fame
Fame want's you
I want Fame.
Two legends
The down dirty side of the Thin White Duke.
Funk masterpiece.
Masterpiece!!!!!
Happy Birthday David Bowie! Sadly missed! RIP!
Am I the only one the hear a big influence from parliament's "give up the funk" ?
Research the group Bowie assembled to create this one...
No chumps on this squad...
"Fame costs" - Debbie Allen "Hold my beer" - David Bowie
Lucifer💔
One of Bowie best song ever and co written by john lennon
THE MAN,THE ICON,THE GENIUS.DAVID BOWIE RIP.
The only song any respectable serial killer would dance too. Hey watch the drinks buddy!
Bowie, you sexy beast you.
This was the jam when I was a teenager.
Anybody ever play this song on guitar hero?
Still luv it😞
I almost spilled my yack on this 200 dollar suit
Funniest white boy tune 1975 Amazing.Got John Lennon in the background too.So smooth.Cheers to the musicians on it.
MAKE IT FUNKY...that's just what happened with this song...This music has so much SOUL!!❤
David Jones rest in paradise !! Is it any wonder?
One of the greatest rock artists ever.
Am i the only one born in 00s and who knows and likes david bowie.
Funk is the rhythm of sex and i bet he knew something about..
1976. I was on a class field trip to the NC mountains a skiing trip. Sitting in the ski lodge at night and hearing this song on the jukebox. Good memories.
What You like is in the limo... and the imagination goes wild what could he mean
Just a god
When this is the only thing that doesn't depress me
is good ,nikos tarantella taverna xersonisos kreta
https://youtu.be/E4NekWPjAUs
Way ahead of his time.An icon.A man who made fashion,not followed it.
My absolute favorite David Bowie song ever
Fame, Shame, Blame. Its no game!!!!! Shut up scary monster. Space boy if sing with gays its only gays song but if two complementary force find itch others song take life force from around life and becomes a description of humanity good or bad but true and universal as it becomes universal that poem-song https://youtu.be/ohZ_rL4HLEc
Copycat
What u like...is in the limo!! I heard the fuck outta that
JACK'S FAME!!!!
Absolute James Hunt...thank you David Bowie RIP you legend....
Why Bowie look like trump here smh
I think its the blond hair.
NOW WHO SENT YOU NIGGUH?
It's make me think about the movie Copycat...great movie and great song!
Nothing compares to this...Fame...1970s forever!!!
sounds even better today than listening to it in the old car and home stereos of the day when it came out. definitely one of my favorite tunes from my youth
RIP David Bowie
Bowie was and is the man fkn beat is awesome RIP David "ziggy"
The 1975 love me?
Rodrigo el abejorro I’m so angry that this so called David Bowie copied The 1975.
Pinky next friday
He sings good, but he looks like he's wearing a Donald Trump Halloween costume.
What do David Bowie and Irene Cara have in common that's easy they have the same exact song Fame but in a different setting of the song
You can be A serial killer? But you're not right?
Kick ass jam from 1975
Who is sent here by Lucifer 😎😈?
This whole time! This whole god damn time I thought he was saying "Bayyyne!".. idk how many times ive heard this song and couldnt decipher it.
Duking it out with The Isley Brothers...for just one song...
Great song and l think nobody knew that john Lennon played on this song and co wrote it to
Wtf I thought this was sung by a black man😂🤦🏾♂️
Who’s here because they’re a stupid dill hole taking about 2019?
driving through downtown LA to this song makes you feel cool. I bet Hollywood boulevard is even more fitting
John Lennon is one of the voices on the breakdown-- did you hear it? 😉
Definitely sounds like him to me at around 3:44.
Lucifer
I just looked up ,"the house that Jack built " didn't know the movie, I remember hearing this way cool and funky David Bowie song about 1977 with John Lennon on background vocals, I know I'm getting older when slot of the people on here comment about this song in reference to a movie that came out in 2018!
this song f*ing CRACKS me the hell up, lol...
NEXT FRIDAY BROUGHT ME HERE.
Friday nite. Wife’s away. Time to hit the boulevard windows down with FAME!!!!!
Lady Gaga
Let's do the 70's all over again! Did we party or did we party
I always thought it said pain
Love that John Lennon co-wrote this
This song is terribly bad
Say it again!
