Watch lyric video for David Bowie's 'I Can't Give Everything Away'

The lyric video for David Bowie's 'I Can't Give Everything Away' has been released.

The kaleidoscopic video was created by Blackstar artist, Jonathan Barnbrook.

The track is the final song on Bowie's swansong album, ★ ('Blackstar'). The final imagery in the lyric video is that of an astronaut drifting away into space. 

North Londoner Bambrook said: "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 colour.

"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."

Barnbrook commenced working with Bowie on 2002's 'Heathen', and then both the 'Reality' and 'The Next Day' albums. He trained at both Saint Martin's School of Art and the Royal College of Art.
