David Bowie - Thru These Architect's Eyes Lyrics

I could never have thought that I'd hear 'Philip Johnson' and 'Richard Rogers' in such a beautiful vocal, beautiful piano line, beautiful beat, beautifully funky, crunchy, guitar.

I'm a bit of an architecture junkie myself and I think I'm in love. 😻

Art Vandelay's favorite song

@J Rico6 now THAT is funny!

We are so lucky to have been alive to hear Bowie's music.

Stomping along
on this big Phillip Johnson
Is delay just wasting my time
Looking across at Richard Rogers
Scheming dreams to blow both their minds
It's difficult you see
To give up baby
To leave a job
When you know
You know the money's from day to day

[CHORUS]
All the majesty of a city landscape
All the soaring days in our lives
All the concrete dreams
in my mind's eye
All the joy I see
Thru these architect's eyes

Cold winter bleeds
on the girders of Babel
This stone boy watching the crawling land
Rings of flesh and the towers of iron
The steaming caves and the rocks and the sand
Stomping along on this big Phillip Johnson
Is delay just wasting my time
It's difficult you see
To give up baby
These summer scumholes
This goddamned starving life

[CHORUS]

It's difficult you see
It's difficult you see

BLah major tom yes you heard about bowie sometime recently. How about this amazing track nobody paid attention to.

Trent Reznor tried to promote it so don't act like you didn't notice edit sorry maybe some sort of MTV household laffo was still catching on. How far we have come.

ALL THE MAJESTY OF A CITY LANDSCAPE

No, the cover art is a painting, a self-portrait by David Bowie himself. Beside making music, het also painted a lot.

Tremendous song!

Awesome song!

Super underrated. Love this little tune

Wish people payed more attention to his later stuff. Blah blah blah major tom.

No, blah blah blah Modern Love and that ilk.

Me too. My fave Bowie is Outside, Heathen and Earthling.

garethb1961 that’s a horrible opinion

@The Tom huh?

@The Tom opinions are like assholes. Everyone's got one, and they all stink
