David Bowie – ‘I Can’t Give Everything Away’

Directed by Jonathan Barnbrook...

A new David Bowie video has been shared on the late singer's social media channels.

'I Can't Give Everything Away' is one of the highlights from new album 'Blackstar', and the visuals come directed by Jonathan Barnbrook.

The visual artist had a close creative relationship with David Bowie, and the video aims to be a celebration of optimism.

In the press note Barnbrook says: "This is really a very simple little video that I wanted to be ultimately positive. We start off in black and white world of ★, but in the final chorus we move to brilliant color, I saw it as a celebration of David, to say that despite the adversity we face, the difficult things that happen such as David’s passing, that human beings are naturally positive, they look forward and can take the good from the past and use it as something to help with the present. We are a naturally optimistic species and we celebrate the good that we are given."

'Blackstar' is out now.
