Blackstar is the twenty-fifth and final studio album by David Bowie. It was released worldwide on this day, 8 January 2016, coinciding with Bowie's 69th birthday.
This is the 2015 Tom Hingston and Jimmy King directed music video, made for the original single version of Sue (Or in a Season of Crime), recut to an edit of the Blackstar album version of Sue.

Blackstar is in my opinion, a masterpiece and is Bowie’s finest album since Scary Monsters in 1980. Sue (Or in a Season of Crime) is one of the many brilliant tracks on Blackstar, and for me, the album version surpasses the original, that was released as a single a year or so prior.
I was curious if Tom Hingston and Jimmy King’s brilliant 2014 video for Sue (Or in a Season of Crime) could be refashioned for the re-recorded Blackstar version. After a couple of years of dabbling, you may be the judge.
