What’s the David Bowie music video where he kinda just stands there holding a dancer’s hand while she’s performing all of these acrobatic dance moves?

Thank you much

[Moderating]  
While this question is factual, it’d probably do better in Cafe Society, our forum for the arts. Moving.

My first thought was _[Time Will Crawl](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHU28e8hZkA)_, a song I had completely forgotten about until I stumbled upon it a few months ago.

One of his best from the 80s in my opinion.
