David Bowie – Survive Live Performance at Elysée Montmartre, Paris

Venue: Élysée Montmartre Location: Paris, Île-de-France, France Date: October 14, 1999

In this captivating live performance from October 14, 1999, at the Élysée Montmartre in Paris, David Bowie delivers a passionate rendition of 'Survive,' a standout track from his 22nd studio album, 'Hours.' Released just a few weeks earlier in September, 'Hours' marked a significant return for Bowie, showcasing a more introspective and personal sound, diverging from the glam rock roots that initially defined his career. This album even reflects his struggles with fame and identity, infusing the music with a sense of vulnerability rarely seen in his earlier works. Interestingly, Bowie's collaboration with producer Tony Visconti during this period brought a fresh perspective to his sound, allowing him to resonate with a new generation of fans. This live performance serves as a compelling reminder of Bowie's dynamic artistry and the emotional depth he brought to his music.
