Ashes To Ashes David Bowie
 

Ive loved this song all my life, and never knew what he was singing about, so I just looked up the lyrics. Here they are. Amazing.

Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song
I've heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true

They got a message from the Action Man
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved all I've needed love
Sordid details following"

The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

thanks for sharing :)

I love that song. One of my favs.

Bowie has so many great songs I could never choose only one :thumbsup

Scared me as well.... I know he had to cancel part of his last tour due to heart problems. Thought he had passed on...God forbid.

Holy shit, I was listening to that thing an hour ago.. :)

David bowie is a legend. I especially love his album Tonight that was recorded just north of montreal actually in sainte adele and the 2 albums he made with the band Tin Machine, now that is some really good shit right there. Seen him live in montreal about 14 years ago at a very small show, maybe 500 people tops, playing with tin machine, he met up with people from the crowd after, it was a show to remember.

david bowie rules

'Fame' is one of my favorite David Bowie songs. :thumbsup

I thought the same. Scared the shit out of me.

I was at that concert and it was plain to see he was in pain.
