David Bowie - The Best Of Bowie
Containing an impressive collection of little-seen TV appearances, music videos and live concert footage, the BEST OF BOWIE is a comprehensive overview of David Bowie's career to date. We start with 3 performances from the BBC's Old Grey Whistle Test ("Oh, You Pretty Things," "Queen Bitch," and "Five Years"), then move onto full performances from shows like Top of the Pops ("Starman"), Russell Harty Plus Pop ("The Jean Genie," "Space Oddity") and a rare caught-on-camera performance of "Rebel, Rebel" from a Dutch TV show called TopPop. The rest of this release concentrates on a concert from the Serious Moonlight tour of 1983, and a chronological array of music videos, starting with "Absolute Beginners" (1986) and ending with "Survive" (from 1999's HOURS album). Bowie fans can finally throw away their poor-quality bootleg copies of this material and enjoy these performances as they were meant to be seen!

Bowie Easter Eggs
'Day-In-Day-Out' Remix
The 'Day-in-Day-Out Remix' appears every second time you select 'Day-In-Day-Out' from the track listing menu.
'Miracle Goodnight' Video
Go to the track listing display on disc two. Leave the player alone for five minutes, and the video for 'Miracle Goodnight' is yours!
Alternate Take
On disc one, program your remote to Title 2, Chapter 1 to see an alternate take of 'Oh, You Pretty Things' where Bowie edits out the 'Earth is a B**ch' line and almost starts laughing. This was take two of the song and has never been broadcast.
Bonus Interview Clip
On the track listing menu, move to [Drive In Saturday] and press [Righ, then [Enter]. A brief interview clip from the same show as the performance is then yours.
Hidden MTV Video for 'Blue Jean'
During the hidden 'Jazzin For Blue Jean' video, when Bowie's love interest selects a video from the pub jukebox and Bowie appears on the tv screen, press [Enter] and the MTV video for 'Blue Jean' will be yours!
Live 'Survive' Video
Select play all from the [Main Menu] on disc two, then fast forward through every track at the highest speed your dvd player can handle, including the video to 'Survive'.
When the [Main Menu] loads up again, select play all. The title the disc selects should be Title 02 instead of Title 01 now. Fast forward through all the videos up to 'Thursday's Child'. Slow down here, because directly after this, the live video for 'Survive' is yours to enjoy!
Mandarin Version of 'Seven Years in Tibet'
At the title screen for the track, there is a mandarin subtitle at the bottom of the screen. When this is on the screen, press [Enter] to get the Mandarin version of 'Seven Years in Tibet'.
Ziggy Movie Ad
On the track listing menu, move to [Ziggy Stardus and press [Righ, then [Enter]. A page advertising the Ziggy movie dvd appears

A real trip down memory lane which includes a previously unseen track (for me anyway) from Dutch TV (Rebel Rebel).
