David Bowie
Late weirdness from David Bowie, in a film by Tony Oursler featuring projections of Bowie and a nameless companion projected onto mannequins. The track arrived unannounced in January 2013, after a long musical silence and featured on The Last Day album. It is set in Berlin and has been suggested ‘that the video is all about the border between the present and the past, the east and the west, the self and the other.’
Where Are We Now?
Had to get the train
From Potsdamer Platz
You never knew that
That I could do that
Just walking the dead
Sitting in the Dschungel
On Nürnberger Strasse
A man lost in time
Near KaDeWe
Just walking the dead
Where are we now, where are we now?
The moment you know, you know, you know
Twenty thousand people
Cross Bösebrücke
Fingers are crossed
Just in case
Walking the dead
Where are we now, where are we now?
The moment you know, you know, you know
As long as there’s sun
As long as there’s sun
As long as there’s rain
As long as there’s rain
As long as there’s fire
As long as there’s fire
As long as there’s me
As long as there’s you
