TODAYS 80s VIDEO *****The music video was made by David Mallet on location in Australia including a bar in Carinda in New South Wales and the Warrumbungle National Park near Coonabarabran. It featured Bowie playing with his band while impassively watching an Aboriginal couple’s struggles against metaphors of Western cultural imperialism. The red shoes mentioned in the songs lyrics appear in several contexts. Bowie described this video (and the video for his subsequent single, China Girl) as very simple, very direct statements against racism and oppression.******* youtube/watch?v=N4d7Wp9kKjA
