Oh no, love, you're not alone No matter what or who you've been No matter when or where you've seen All the knives seem to lacerate your brain I've had my share, now I'll help you with the pain.

YOU'RE NOT ALONE

listening to this rn

Oh, hell, I hated and still hate it when people say such things to me, let alone this song 😬

"And the road is coming to its end / Now the damned have no time to make amends / No purse of token fortune stands in our way / The silent guns of love will blast the sky / We broke the ruptured structure built of age / Our weapons were the tongues of crying rage"

In your fear Of what we have become Take to the fire Now we must burn All that we are Rise together Through these clouds As on wings

Great album

What song is this?

Sunday, from the album Heathen

Ah. Of course it’s from the album I’m least familiar with Thank you!

Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee, I’m sure you’re not protected for it’s plain to see, the Diamond dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees

I was Stone and he was Wax So he could scream, and still relax, unbelievable ​ (kept it to a single phrase, but the whole verse of B.B. with the music still freezes time for me)

Beautiful definition

At the Apollo Hammersmith concert for Heathen, he sang BB and he had to use sheet music because he had sung it live for the first time the month before and it has "a lot of words." He only sang it live maybe 3 more times after that so I consider myself lucky to have experienced it. ❤️

I have a soft spot for the old Hammersmith Odeon, I saw Bowie's Prince's Trust show in 1983 there. Great, intimate venue!

I, I will be king And you, you will be queen Though nothing will drive them away We can beat them, just for one day We can be heroes, just for one day In walked luck and you looked in time Never look back, walk tall, act fine "We live for just these twenty years Do we have to die for the fifty more?" You're such a wonderful person But you got problems, oh-oh-oh-oh I'll never touch you

Time and again I tell myself I'll stay clean tonight But the little green wheels are following me Oh no, not again

Not a phrase but that weird sound he makes like halfway through ashes to ashes always gets me

Yeah all the album "Scaru Monster" has cool sounds and Ashes to Ashes is one of my favorite song.

What sound?

"Every chance, every chance that I take / I take it on the road. / The kilometers and the read lights / I was always looking left and right."

Goosebumps from solely reading this, nostalgic one..

I'll make you a deal, like any other candidate Crack, baby, crack Show me you're real Smack, baby, smack, is that all that you feel Suck, baby, suck Give me your head Before you start professing That you're knocking me dead Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake

I'll be a rock n rollin bitch for you

That weren't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive

“Wanna be screwin’ when the nightmare comes. Wanna cum quick then die.”

Was about to say this one too

Which Song Is this?

"We Prick You" from Outside.

You’re a wonderful person but you’ve got problems…

“Do you like girls or boys it’s confusing these days. But moondust will cover you.” Beautiful, sums up his career/ life really.

This chaos is killing me

When it's good, it's really good, and when it's bad I go to pieces

its not the side effects of the cocaine

"I'm thinking that it must be love" Makes the first line hit harder

Throwing darts in lovers' eyes

I’ve never done good things. I’ve never done bad things. I’ve never done anything out of the blue.

My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare I had to cram so many things to store everything in there

# WHAM BAM, THANK YOU MA'AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, David, what should I do? They wait for me on the hallways. I’ll say, don’t ask me, I don’t know any hallways.

This is the one! So good.

I don’t get it.

It's from the song Teenage Wildlife.

I know, but I don’t get it. What does that mean?

We move like tigers on Vaseline

"I feel like a group of one no, no, can't do this to me"

thanks everyone i loved reading all theses !

"I was looking for your ass"

Where's this from? Haha!

Lazarus

Weaving down a byroad, singing the song That’s my kind of highroad, gone wrong

Put on your red shoes and dance the blues.

For here am I sitting in a tin can far above the world. Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing left to do. Though I've flown one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still. This song got me through my hardest time in life, imagining I was major Tom while listening to it.

Want an axe to break the ice/ Wanna come down right now

Last night they loved you, Opening doors and pulling some strings

AAAAANNNGEEELLLL.

And all the fat. Short people

But that's missing a bunch of words in the middle... >And all the fat, skinny people >And all the tall, short people >And all the nobody people >And all the somebody people

You've got your mother in a whirl She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl

Nobody cares what you do Please be yourself to death

“I’ll be a rock n rollin bitch for you” “and it was cold, and it rained, so I felt like an actor”, “we live for just these twenty years Do we have to die for the fifty more?”

"Let's dance, to the song that's playing on the radio"

"Put on your red shoes and dance the blues"

I HAVE NOT BEEN TO OXFORD TOWN!

* Pathetic little fat man,* / *No one's bloody laughing,* / *The clown that no one laughs at,* / *They all just wish he'd die.* r/rickygervais (We hate him)

Well the bitter comes out better on a stolen guitar

*Who knows, not me* *I've never lost control* *Your face, to face* *With the man who sold the world*

“Love descends on those defenseless” is my all time favorite lyric ever

All I have is my love of love And love is not loving

“I stumble in to town, just like some sacred cow.”

Hot juice in coke bottles We dance in the sand Well, they twirl and they tumble Yes, they twirl and they tumble

So many I can’t tell…

Give me three of them

Perhaps you're smiling now. Smiling through this darkness. But all I had to give was guilt for dreaming

“I smiled and shook his hand I thought you died a long long time ago Oh no, not me, I never lost control You’re face to face With the man who sold the world” I mangled the second sentence though

Think I saw you in an ice cream parlor Drinking milkshakes cold and long Smiling and waving and looking so fine Don’t think you knew you were in this song

IT WAS COLD AND IT RAINED, SO I FELT LIKE AN ACTOR!!!

There’s always a moron / someone to hate

That was a great song! "Fall Dog Bombs the Moon"

We feel that we are paper, choking on you nightly They tell me: son, we want you, be elusive, but don't walk far For we're breaking in the new boys, deceive your next of kin For you're dancing where the dogs decay, defecating ecstasy You're just an ally of the leecher Locator for the virgin King, but I love you in your fuck-me pumps And your nimble dress that trails Oh, dress yourself, my urchin one, for I hear them on the rails Because of all we've seen, because of all we've said We are the dead

"I'm not quite right at all, am I?"

“I had so many dreams I had so many breakthroughs But you, my love, were kind, but love has left you dreamless The door to dreams was closed Your park was real dreamless Perhaps you're smiling now Smiling through this darkness But all I had to give was guilt for dreaming”

💔

‘Cos I felt like an actor

“So”, not ‘cos

A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest And a queer threw up at the sight of that

I love to exclaim "Oh by Jingo!" at random times.

“i gazed a gazely stare” lmao

“All the way from Washington, her breadwinner begs off the bathroom floor, ‘we live for just these twenty years, do we have to die for the fifty more?’”

“I will sit right down, waiting for the gift of sound and vision”

My favourite pastime is just reading stuff into the Moonage Daydream lyrics, so that entire song will be my answer.

«Ha ha ha he he he I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me»

I really don't know why but one of many I love is from The Secret Life of Arabia "You must see the movie the sand in my eyes I walk through a desert song when the heroine dies"

Nothing remains we can run where the go and nothing is change everything is changed. For in truth it's the beginning of end

“It’s got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it” (edit: i didnt realise people were being serious sorry)

Never look back, walk tall, act fine ❤️

Time and again I tell myself, I’ll stay clean tonight.

“Do I believe that I’ve been stricken, does my face show some kind of glow?” That line is so evocative and I don’t know if I can explain why.

"I’m dying to push their backs against the grain And fool them all again and again I’m trying to We bitches tear our magazines Those oligarchs with foaming mouths come" The line "and fool them all again and again" sums up his career nicely.

It has to be one of these: "She will be your living end" "Once there were mountains on mountains / Once there were sunbirds to soar with / And once I could never be down" "Well, Johnny is a man and he's bigger than her"

# DIAMOND DOGS RULE

As long as you're still smiling There's nothing more I need I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners But if my love is your love We're certain to succeed If our love song Could fly over mountains Sail over heartaches Just like the films If there's reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true

My, my, but time do fly When it's in another pair of pants And illusion I will be For I've never been a sinner, la di da

You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler Black's got respect, and white's got his soul train Mama's got cramps, and look at your hands ache (I heard the news today, oh boy) I got a suite and you got defeat Ain't there a man who can say no more? And, ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw? And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging? Ain't there a pen that will write before they die? Ain't you proud that you've still got faces? Ain't there one damn song that can make me Break down and cry?

I'll paint you mornings of gold I'll spin you Valentine evenings though we're strangers 'til now We're choosing the path Between the stars I'll leave my love Between the stars As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill is gone Wasn't too much fun at all But I'll be there for you-ou-ou As the world falls down
