Ashes To Ashes, 1980

Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song?
I've heard a rumor from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true

They got a message from the Action Man
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved all I've needed, love
Sordid details following"

The shrieking of nothing is killing, just
Pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

I never done good things (I never done good things)
I never done bad things (I never done bad things)
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said, to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

Ashes To Ashes ... David Bowie ...

Let's Dance (David Bowie Tribute) with Christian Rossle

I'm happy to post here this cover of "Jump they say",  brilliantly orchestrated and brought to life by "Phil & friends" :-) It's from David Bowie's 1993 "Black tie, white noise" album. To be honest I'd never heard this song before, but I took to it immediately and thoroughly enjoyed doing my bit :-) 

Thanks again Phil for the opportunity, and a big hand to Rick and Lisa for their top notch contributions :)

Lyrics :

When comes the shaking man
A nation in his eyes
Striped with blood and emblazed tattoo
Streaking cathedral spire
They say
They say
They say

He has no brain
They say
He has no mood
They say
He was born again
They say
Look at him climb
They say 'jump'
They say 'jump'

They say
He has two gods
They say
He has no fear
They say
He has no eyes
They say
He has no mouth

They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd they say 'jump'
They say 'jump'
Watchout!
Watchout!
They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
They say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
They say 'jump'
Got to believe 
They say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
Jump!

Jump They Say - David Bowie Cover (in collaboration with Phil McWalter, Faerytale & Rick Medlock)

From the album
"Say Goodbye to Ground Control" 
now available on Bandcamp
Mixed, Mastered, co produced by Russ Sinfield https://soundcloud.com/russell-sinfield

Lyrics:

"how did we come to this place
and sacrifice our time and space
for all these riches that aren't real
distracting us from how we feel?

like a black hole that pulls you in,
we're told we failed when we begin.
who would discourage us to shine
instead of making us divine?

but we'll succeed collectively 
to make our own reality
free to live inside our hearts - 
that kind of freedom is always ours.

so give the TV back it's soul,
say goodbye to ground control,
take that chance and step outside,
and don't forget, enjoy the ride."
