Sound And Vision Lyrics

Artist: David Bowie (Buy David Bowie CDs)

Sound And Vision
David Bowie

Ahhh...
Ahhh...

Doo, doo, doo, do-doh
Doo, doo, doo, do-doh

Don't you wonder sometimes
'Bout sound and vision

Blue, blue, electric blue
That's the colour of my room
Where I will live
Blue, blue

Pale blinds drawn all day
Nothing to do, nothing to say
Blue, blue

I will sit right down, waiting for the gift of sound and vision
And I will sing, waiting for the gift of sound and vision
Drifting into my solitude, over my head

Don't you wonder sometimes
'Bout sound and vision

in the song it sounds like:
Blue, blue, electric blue
That's the colour of my poo

should i dare say it, but the cover by Matthew Dear in the album "Life Beyond Mars - Bowie Covered" is better than the Bowie.

really do they let any idiot post comments...better than the original? you should hang your empty head in shame

by Meli on 11/8/2008 2:16pm
Gemini-> I completely agree. Bowie does a great job with this one, but Dear serves the song better.

One of 2 or 3 songs that really make me want to dance w/ a girl I love.

Too bad they're using it in some commercial.

every version of this song is amazing.

just means this song is that genius, so much, much credit to Bowie.

by brian on 12/2/2009 3:59pm
this is on of my fav bowie tracks along with ashes to ashes. Bowies a real classic individual and probably one of the most taleneted singers of all time.

Gracias Bowie por tu regalo de sonido.

by mars on 3/26/2010 11:01pm
this is an awesome song
i'm a great bowie fan and i think this is one of his finest moments
i've heard a cover franz ferdinand did and it was pretty amazing too
alex kapranos voice suits this song perfectly
i dare not say it's better than the original but it's pretty close

I think it's

'Pale blinds drawn all day/ nothing to read, nothing to say'

Sounds like 'read' on both the original and the Dear cover

by Ali G on 3/13/2011 7:20pm
i love these lyrics. i especially love the sea and cake's version of this. if you haven't heard it yet, go check it out. i personally like it better than matthew dear's or bowie's, although all are pretty amazing

by Liam Fan on 6/26/2011 1:30pm
Liam is correct. Suck it Liam haters.

When I was a teenager living at home and hating my parents I would lock myself in my room and thrash this album. It's what kept me sane. Now I'm 49 and when my kids are pissing me off I lock myself in my room and thrash this album. It stills works

i think its about being in the womb.

Beck's cover is better, better than matthew dear's. I'm not comparing it with the original, but Beck's cover is damn good.

David bowie is the best .

One of my favorite Bowie songs (and I love so many of his). Beautifully simple.

An English born world ARTIST lonely at the top with a few other great spirits who went to hell and came back to survive

its good and ive liked this track for years but Bowie aint anywhere near the best. I`ve prob heard almost everything he`s done and from early 80`s he`s been commercial pop.He`s released some howlers - Lets dance for example, of the time but just a Peter Andre type song of its day.

Shut up boner you flid, Let's Dance is great

To stralfur,
I relate to you only I locked my Mam out of the front room and thrashed it! Today, I lock myself in the bedroom when the Missus pisses me off and thrash it. Therapeutic!
