Flock Of Seagulls, A - Remember David Lyrics

Love this song my name is David lol

One of the most under rated and under heard songs by anyone in music history.

This really was a great record.. Agreed! ;)

i feel for this song... my mom died in 2016.. colon cancer, i think? i was 12... 15 now

00:15 that synth!

AMAZING TRACK.

Amazing song and album.

I remember David Bowie.

Yes this is the album hands down my favorite. They have developed a religious and political direction with the lyrics. I am an extremist and musician never thought I would actually like any X band but that's all about how you were raised and what music got encrypted in your memory banks

We're all "extremists" these days

Mike's ego is bigger than his fat bald head. L ol love you Mike!

Just another amazing song. Do you think they even look at our comments?

For my Step Dad, David Canfield, an amazing man taken away from our family by Huntingtons's disease.

I love this

some fantastic palm muting from Paul Reynolds

Paul, love

I wish the original flock of seagulls would get back together

they are now together

Dennis U. Where did you hear this?

Shane Dorsey they are.

Que les puedo decir decir de este disco, me lo robaron fue de mis primeros DVD me costó mucho trabajo conseguirlo, me lo robao una mujer llamada ECN lo tengo en Vinil y en Casette, me dolió mucho su perdida, ERA TOTALMENTE INGLÉS

Incredible song! Mind boggling guitar and effects! Paul Reynolds 👍

This song rocks!!!! better than i ran.

2:11 wow so good

Paul Reynolds fucking and fantastic Skills to Play Guitar

yeah.one of my all time faves..this was a great album but was overshadowed by their earlier material..listen and afos were 2 albums difficult to follow up on for any band..

aun presente AFOS

One of the best 80's bands that never got the recognition they so rightly deserved...somehow their music, production and sheer drive got swept under the carpet like 80's detritous....what a waste of great talent.

Awesome.

That bassline is sick.

A Forever Tune.

Truly one of their best!

Such an underrated song

here in Trinidad we mostly heard ( I ran ) and after hearing their other songs after all these years A flock of Seagulls are indeed truly underrated. such great musical magic went unnoticed. what a shame .they were so ahead of time , their music could stand up to anything played on the air today ,you guy's are the greatest.

Zamir..from trinidad too..my favorite band boi

One of my favourite AFOS songs of ever!

This song deserved to be an even bigger hit than I Ran. This album is the one that should have turned them into superstars, and fostered decades of further musical creations by the Mike/Ali/Frank/Paul team. God dammit, top 40 charts, why did you forsake us? T^T

Well, it was the band's fault that they did not decide to release it as a single

They did release "Remember David" as a single, but unfortunately it didn't chart. The same happened with "Never Again (The Dancer)," which slightly beats this song for the best on the album IMO. After reading on the subject it seems New Wave was dropping in popularity at the time; even giants like Devo and Gary Numan were slipping on the charts. It's really a shame. =(

Uhhhh they were supetstars?! They just broke up, The Flock was huge!

Yeah, but I wanted the to work with Conny Plank more, and learn how to be an electronic prog rock band!

Because top 40 is usually mainstream. Question, What lies at the bottom of the mainstream ? .,.... answer: Mediocrity. And just why would they have wanted to be mediocre? 🤔

RIP David

there were some great bands through the 80,s .this is deffo a hard band to beat for song lyrics and music.plz bring back the 80s

lee weatherill 80s is the best

That cowbell, the hard-hitting synth, and awesome guitar.. this song is amazing.

Not to mention the bassline.

g0urra All around great tune.

gran recuerdo, el primer casset que tuve fue de este grupo,de cromo, y grabado con unas pinceladas de agudo barbaras.

Super!!!! The Best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me encanta temazo y su letra y este album

excelente temazo de la bandada de gaviotas!!

I was 17 years old when this song came out and is one of my favorite from the band.

Coool, I'm 17 now 😆

David was a friend of Mike Score that committed suicide before his wedding. He was getting married, but was in love with someone else and was so distraught he killed himself. His name wasn't really David.

I'm sorry.. that's a sad story.

my future husband is called David ......................

Im guessing this album was dedicated to him

This is true

I have a friend named Andrew that committed suicide and his wife works at dollar general store she is going through a tough time.

that is some deep shit from Liverpool!

Remember David's eyes
The way he used to hypnotize his young
Remember David's words
The words he said to us when we were small

Remember David's hair
The way his long hair fell across his brow
Remember David's smile
I wonder where he's gone to now?

The world keeps on turning

thanks! :D

Everybody's asking questions
Tell me David, what's the secret?
Tell me David, what's the answer?

Remember David's eyes
The gray-green eyes he hides his world behind
And all the things he saw,
He saw for us when we were blind

Remember David's smile
The spirit moves tonight to make you shine
Remember David's words
The words he said would last all time

He said the world keeps on turning
Everybody's laughing at me
Tell me, David, what's the secret?
Tell me, David, do you have the answer?
Do you have the answer?

He said the world keeps on turning
Everybody's laughing at me
Tell me, David, what's the secret?
Tell me, David, what's the answer?

The day that David died
The world stood still
The stars refused to shine
And now he's far away from love
That was his only crime

The spirit moves tonight
To make your young heart
Make your young heart shine
The words he said to us
I'll carry with me for all time

He said the world keeps on turning
Everybody's laughing at me
Tell me, David, what's the question?
Tell me, David, what's the answer?
Tell me, David, what's the answer?

The world keeps on turning
Everybody's laughing at me
Tell me, David, what's the secret?
The world keeps on turning
The world keeps on turning
The world keeps on turning?

I remember David, my big brother.. 1968-1995. RIP

The day that David died
The world stood still
The stars refused to shine
And now he's far away from love
That was his only crime

The world keeps on turning..

Met him on Several Occasions screwed over never got his Royalties.
