Joe Jackson - Strange Land Lyrics
Thought there was a right turn here
Turns out to be wrong
Thought there was a short cut there
Seems to be so long
I study the lines on the map
Am I out of time or out of place
Is this a brave stand
Or am I in danger
How are we supposed to know
When to stay or go
Is this a strange land
Or am I the stranger
Rainy Sunday afternoon
All the whisky's Japanese
The bars are full of ghosts
Here in the City of Light
I'm looking for a cave
Am I soul who can be saved
Is this a brave stand
Or am I in danger
How are we supposed to know
When to stay or go
Is this a strange land
Or am I the stranger
Is this a brave stand
Or am I in danger
How are we supposed to know
When to stay or go
Is this a strange land
Or am I the stranger

always late to the proverbial party. good god. he's brilliant.
Vibe incrível
SUPERGENIUS
Talk instead of sing, when he sings....ALL FLAT NOTES WITH HORRIBLE PITCH....too many syllables per line of music.... this is beyond bad.... cats making love sounds better.
Sublime concert hier soir à l'Olympia (as usual) Thank you!
WHY this man is not in the R and R hall of Fame I do not understand.
Kevin Corcoran I ask the same
Joe Jackson and his excellent musicians...are the real McKay!!! Congratulations from Scotland Guys. Wonderfully excellent. More... more... more...and more again.
Fantastic song and album all round. Hope we get a full set from these sessions, they're great!
Every live of Joe is an experience, never the same. He is really a great musician, composer, producer, arranger
Bravo à vous Mr. Joe Jackson. It makes me happy to hear this great voice and piano. Super génial. ça change de toutes les immondes variétoches insipides que l'on peut entendre sur les radios. (surtout en France où le bon goût a foutu le camp depuis des lustres...)
Just saw him in Toronto, one of the best shows I have ever seen. Great musician.
Gorgeous.
Zo mooi. Echt jj
this is quite good. And that is my entire critique :-)
The current tour is fantastic. GO SEE A SHOW !!!!!
I love all Joe Jackson songs. The new and the especially the old...in Montreal, I hope he will play my favorites, "Sunday Papers," for example. That means tabloids. And broadsheets. Big respect.
J'aime toutes les chansons de Joe Jackson. La nouvelle et les vielles en plus... a Montreal, j'espere qu'il chanter mes favorites "Sunday Papers". Ca va dire "les journaux de dimanche." Grand respecte.
Welcome back Joe Jackson. Back to the 80´s. Night and Day.
That voice hasn't aged a day in the past 40 years.
This man's ability to bring emotion out of a keyboard defies words.
I love this song , can't wait to go to the performance in Groningen 17 march . I also went to the Fast Forward Tour and that was also fantastic
Beautiful performance.
Hoping to go see him in Syracuse
Good to hear this man, as ever.
Wow I am floored. I loved Joe Jackson right up till Nght and Day. I tried to keep up with his body of work but I gravitated to other new artists because I just could find anything in his music that kept my attention. I still loved him for the first 4 or 5 albums But this record is simply a gem. This is a masterpiece. His best work since Night and Day. I am so glad he found his old self again. I am so proud of him. Something big must have happened in his life to bring so much emotion to his new music. Whomever this person is that passed away and is mentioned at the end of the new songs must have been a big influence. Thank you Joe for this amazing record.
Gracias Joe !!!! desde 1980 contigo!!! Thanks Joe !! Since 1980 with you!! Beautiful Song.
Good chords, excellent harmony, soft piano, thanks Mr. Jackson for create this song. Greetings from Peru
Fabulous..
A brand-new instant classic.

Asking the question is answering it.
Fantastico come sempre!
The return of real music.
hear, hear
U mean bad eighties crap... talk instead of sing with mediocre beat...horrible pitch, flat notes and too many syllables per line of notes.... ? This is beyond technically wrong. And just horrible.
amazing VERY Broadway - totally different from the five songs in the now pulled Larry Rulz Too video of the Tarrytown show
WOW
Le meilleur
Great song
Shanghai Sky still my favorite JJ song....but this is golden as well!
That's my all time favorite also, and this new song reminded me of it too.
Great song!
I love it!
Beautiful, haunting.
I was so happy to have 'Fast Forward'
To think we get another album is excellent. Joe you have written some of the best songs of all time. Thank You.
What songs would you suggest me to listen to from the Fast Forward record? I'm going through many of his music these days.
The title track is great. I love "So You Say", "Junkie Diva", "Blue Time", "Neon Rain" (pretty heavy for a Joe Jackson song), "Far Away", "Good Bye Johnny" and "If I Could See Your Face". Also "If It Wasn't For You". Great record.
