![]() Think Tank (2003) [ larger cover art ] |
Where's the love song to set us free?
Too many people down
Everything turning the wrong way round
And I don't know what love would be
But if we stop dreaming now
Lord knows we'll never clear the clouds
And you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning gently out of time
Feel the sunshine on your face
It's in a computer now
Gone to the future way out in space
And you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning gently out of time
And you've been so busy lately that you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning gently out of time
Tell me I'm not dreaming
But are we out of time?
We're out of time
Out of time
Out of time
Out of time
Out of time

| Mugro (My body is in Dubai, my heart is in Red Sox Nation) | Posted: Aug 20, 2011 - 06:06 This song is annoying. I thought I had two different (competing) audio streams going on my computer. |
| dpvest (roseville) | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 16:20 I thought this was gorillaz at first. I had to dig to find damon's name...good stuff. |
| Krispian (Vancouver, BC) | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 14:30 Wicked cover art. I'd love to find a print of this. |

There are a few songs where David puts on a kind of tired, very English vocalization that sounds like this. Thinking of Repetition from Lodger as the best example. However, over 44 years of recording, Bowie has used more varied vocal styles than he has stage personalities. |

Completely agree. I get weak when I listen to this, but the video is a huge disappointment. |
