I've always liked the Bowie song, but when I saw "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou" and heard brazilian Seu Jorge's version I was instantly hooked. Seu Jorge's simple covers of Bowie's "Ziggy" era music is the best thing in an otherwise forgettable movie.

Comments about Rebel Rebel:

Who the hell could compare to Bowie he is the son and the moon in fact if anyone ever did a version of ground control to major tom chuck norris and jesus would take their glowing ninja swords and cut their balls off as an offering to bowie

P.S Bowie sings great but as far as looks he scares the shit out of me.

Both versions are amazing, i jsut think seu jorge's adds a lot more pasion to this already amazing song, the whole of the life aquatic cd is amazing.
