Bowie Footage Used In New U2 Video

I see you see me through your window…

Popular singing combo, U2, have made a cheeky little video for their latest single release, Windows in the Skies.

Not dissimilar in concept to the Gnarls Barkley video for Smiley Faces that we told you about in July, (07.21.2006 NEWS: GNARLS BARKLEY REWRITES MUSICAL HISTORY) this U2 promo utilises footage of various rock stars and the like apparently singing along to Windows in the Skies.

Needless to say, for any proper representation of David Bowie you would need at least ten different clips as he’s been so many different important Rock Gods…but for convenience sake U2 have included just two segments of David Bowie, as evidenced in the screen grab above.

First person to tell me what two Bowie videos have been used will be able to pick something nice from the BowieNet prize vault.

Windows in the Skies is released on January 1st (the DVD single in the UK will include the video) and the video itself premiers officially on MTV.com & VH1.com on Monday morning…but, as you may have guessed, it’s already out there anyway.
