Bowie, David - Where Are We Now? Lyrics






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

Bowie, David Where Are We Now? Comments
  1. k.... k....

    Sad song…...our god is dead……
    :(

  2. t.... ....

    Come on, seriously?! This is boring as hell and his voice is weak and terrible.

    t.... ....

    Drop dead sociopath.

    t.... ....

    @Barto Bruintjes strong argument there. Thanks for proving my point.

  3. F.... B....

    Fascinating.

  4. D.... S....

    I saw this track when it came out because Mr Bowie had’nt released anything for a while. I was slightly disappointed for some reason, but it is a beautiful, heartbreaking song.......why am I surprised? Brilliant song and brilliant video.

  5. L.... P....

    Die Person, die mir ihre Liebe schenkte, ist in Berlin groß geworden. Nach Jahren findet sie jetzt wieder zur großen Stadt zurück.
    Sie liebt David Bowies Musik, und seine Persönlichkeit. Und während ich sie, die liebt, vielleicht verliere, weil ich mich ihrer nicht mehr wert fühle und sie ein anderes Leben sucht, höre ich diesen großartigen Song mit wachem Ohr.

  6. p.... ....

    See ya soon Dave.

  7. L.... C....

    Thank you, David Bowie (post-mortem), for this transfixing art. I feel richer and wiser for having experienced it.

  8. H.... ....

    Still miss him. This song reminds me of something Robert Wyatt would write.

    H.... ....

    Yes totally good point.

  9. M.... D....

    It’s strange, i’m nearly 14 yet this is how it feels. Everything is wildly simple and calm, but so much has happened. Rest in Peace David, you got me through some harder times.

  10. M.... R....

    Look at him. Even at that age a beautiful man. And someone I know, a great artist who came to my town to live was a mentor to Tony Ourselor who made this film. He is dead now too sadly. The artist I knew I mean. And I get that shirt! HA HA!!

  11. M.... W....

    I have all of David Bowie’s albums. I can’t buy this one. I can’t bring myself to say David Bowie’s last album. I just can’t....

    M.... W....

    This isn't from his last album...

  12. s.... ....

    Sometimes walking out in the rain is fun.

  13. T.... B....

    Its over
    You can see it in his face. He looks like a puppy
    x

  14. A.... M....

    Im a milennial, and I will tell my sons about the day this album came out after a long hiatus, and the first time SpaceX landed two spaceships at the same time.

  15. s.... ....

    He sounds like a old drunk in hailing gass with the words he is saying. A hole world with electric cars would be like this LOL.

  16. J.... 8....

    Blackstar and the death of the man totally eclipsed how great The Next Day, the unexpected 2013 comeback album, was and still is, and how haunting its leadout single, Where Are We Now, was and still is.

  17. W.... ....

    sitting in the dschungel sang similarly to sitting in a tin can from space oddity so he liked to rehash his own melodies, Bowie at the end of the video LOL

  18. M.... ....

    https://youtu.be/TOfUtyPmkH4

  19. W.... ....

    this one is miles better than blackstar and lazarus , this is classic Bowie up to par , it's unusual but catchy at the same time while being nicely understated , a very good cut , weird video to accompany it but that was always par for the course with him

  20. M.... S....

    Makes me want to cry - miss him

  21. M.... B....

    Where are You now ? 💗💗💗💗💗

  22. C.... R....

    Mr Sammler's Planet

  23. S.... L....

    Hypnotic energy back in time.

    Is a sublime genius lyrics writting.

  27. W.... S....

    This song is so beautiful and it became sadder since the day that you left us, Bowie. Four years ago.
    I miss you. We'll always love you, Bowie.

  28. E.... S....

    Ciao David ............................. ! <3

  29. S.... i....

    I love the shot in the end. Powerful!

  30. s.... s....

    i sadly wattched Davids video about 3 years ago ....little did i know what was growing inside of me then. shortly i was diagnosed with stage 4.. i know what he felt.

  31. N.... D....

    R.I.P, Mr. Bowie. We miss ya.

  32. i.... ....

    Happy Birthday to The Thin White Duke!

  33. R.... ....

    So happy he was was born. Bowie forever.

  34. C.... ....

    One of his best efforts in my opinion. RIP David...

  35. G.... ....

    what a Genius - what a song - lyrics are on another level - !! the world is less without him in it

  36. T.... O....

    He rescued me as a teenager, he gived me the feeling, he would understand me, light up my minds.That he lived in the same city for a while, near my home, to be in the same bars and places he used to be, makes me still happy. I remember we was sitting in the "Neues Ufer" his bar next to the house he and Iggy lived. It was his birthday and "Black star" cames out same day. Frank, the owner of the bar, played it after another and we was talking hopeful about he will may go on tour again. Two days later we met there again, heartbroken. Still feels same.

  37. k.... ....

    i'm bowie's biggest fan....he not dead..you're all being played..the world is a stage.

  38. U.... S....

    Genial....!!!!!!!!

  39. M.... K....

    David You Was known history and Earth it's just Big Scam
    Nowhere
    Rewrite side

  40. C.... R....

    I was not a Bowie fan - until the release of this song and the accompanying video. You can see his pain from time to time as he sings and as he is the onlooker. It’s not necessarily physical pain, but the pain of realisation that life’s coming to an end. And the endless question: could it have been spent better...

    I think that there are clues within the song and the video that this was the ‘star child’ coming back to Earth. It was not so much a return as a confrontation. There is a lesson in this for all of us...

  41. S.... H....

    Embarrassingly ordinary for a once talented original artiste circa 1969 to 1983.
    After that totally banal

    Just in case ...!!!!🤨

  49. W.... B....

    I'm in my late 60's and have been listening to David Bowie for nearly 50 years. I truly loved him and he made a huge impact on my life. I will always miss him.

  50. A.... A....

    Não gostei. . eu amo Bowie, mas essa não gostei

  51. C.... C....

    Was he the first to do the writing on the screen...Probably, he was a style icon.

  52. S.... S....

    My favorite Bowie song. So much deapth in this melody.

  53. R.... M....

    Hauntingly beautiful

  55. V.... H....

    as long as there's you...David

  56. I.... M....

    It hurts to see him like this Rest in peace and thank you for your music

  57. D.... O....

    Lot of thumbs down. Really. You can not be stupid.bowie is our music God.

  58. F.... B....

    Grande David...in terra un divo,in cielo un DIO..

  59. W.... T....

    He looked as if he was resigned to death and had accepted it. His face tells the story of a man ready to meet his maker - if indeed a "maker" exists. I would love to think so. When I close my eyes for the last time and take that final leap from life to death I would hope to see the loved ones I have lost again. Dinner with my Father would be magnificent. The last time I saw him was the day he died on 24th December 1964. Strange - he was 27 - I am now 62 and old enough to be my Fathers Father - if that makes any sense. A Happy Christmas to anyone and everyone who chances to read this - yes it is to you personally - regardless of age, race, colour or creed. I hope all your hopes and dreams are yours in 2020. Much love.

    W.... T....

    Beautifully put Will. Lately I have been thinking a lot about people close to me who have passed and what I wouldn't give just to spend a day with them. Life can be very painful sometimes without our loved ones. I only hope that we will get to see them again someday. Sending love and peace to you Will and wish you all the best for 2020.

  60. A.... B....

    Cuanta nostalgia causa esta cancion mas aun despues de visitar berlin lugar donde david vivio un tiempo y compuso maravillosos discos, haber estado en todas esas locaciones y ver el video realmente causa una gran nostalgia!

  61. A.... B....

    WTF, I didn't realize it's a edit one I thought he was 2 headed man, after I feel normal then I realized it and laughs so hard. Sometimes Weeds takes you fucking serious moments.

  62. A.... R....

    3:29 permitido soltar una lágrima?

  63. D.... E....

    Not my first choice for the first time, but that was typical for David. He was an artist, a great one!
    Until David sang the refrain ... It flashes me again and again! Everything makes sense after that!
    By the way, I can't see any cities or persons if I hear this song. The only one I could feel is a Goodby, so beautiful and sad.
    If I can, I would like to hear this song for my own funeral. Then I will start my last travel to Walhalla with a smile and the feeling: "Everything is done! That's a pity, but it's allright!"
    Thank you David and: "Auf Wiedersehen!" I will hear you again :-)

  64. �.... �....

    кто эти товарищи которые напердолили 2 тыщи дизов????!!!!!!!!!!

  65. M.... ....

    Fingers crossed, just in case... in case of what?

  66. S.... ....

    Ziggy played guitar.

    "Song of Norway". He still carried a torch for Hermione.

  70. f.... g....

    Cały czas Go słyszę....

  71. P.... A....

The Freaking LEGEND in the making!!!!

  72. Y.... ....

    it's been a while since i last saw a work of Tony Oursler! as creepy as ever ^^

  73. r.... ....

    The last hero

  74. R.... G....

    Absolutely perfect and searingly painful at the same time.

  75. A.... F....

    Unsurpassed master

  76. M.... H....

    Mr. Bowie is sorely lacking in the world of music, we miss him so much. .. to all of us.

  77. A.... S....

    💔😢

  78. L.... J....

    God damn God for taking him from me. Couldn't you leave a little bit of happiness in my world you bastard?

  79. g.... s....

    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 Böse Brücke
    Fingers are crossed
    Just in case
    Walking the dead
    Where are we now?
    Where are we now?

    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

  86. M.... N....

    all these comments prove one thing: david bowie is not dead. not even physically because nothing gets lost in our universe – no matter, no energy, no bowie. and considering the spiritual aspect: i totally agree with eckhardt tolle when he claims that death is something unreal. only life, only present, only the very moment is reality. and in this very moment i feel david being here, being present very closely. and he will always be.

  87. N.... 6....

    One of David,s most moving songs.....

  88. A.... B....

    Once in a lifetime experience.David I hope to see you again in the next life xxx.

  89. S.... a....

    A sad one...

    Anyhow... I'll get back to the point of this comment; aguante Macri.

  90. V.... S....

    And his last days before he left us, his fans behind........
    You'll be missed "for ever and ever"!

  91. V.... S....

    Great music video!
    By watching this gives us an impression of Mister Bowie's period while staying in Berlin.

  92. L.... D....

    ...you are on air...david...forever and ever...laura❤

  93. c.... N....

    As long as there 's me ....as long as thers 's you...
    Tears burst out ....

    c.... N....

    A six Year old could write that

    c.... N....

    @Steffan Hoffmann everyone could write that, but is there any emotional content. U can try to write that, see anyone feel the same to u?

    c.... N....

    @Steffan Hoffmann yes u r a troll, but what u did, would not make ur life better. Poor.

  94. W.... ....

    Guys...GUYS!?!? I think someone slipped me some drugs

  95. n.... d....

    Since more than 20 years, i live a few blocks away from where he lived in th 80's. The weeks after he died, i passed this house every day by bus and hold back not to cry. You know you'll next. If your youth is over and the voices of you youth start diying, you know you run out of time. This moment, like someone is punching you in your face, really - really hard, without holding back, you then get this sober picture, that it's really up to you, to be the one who reminds yourself of the passion and strenth, which is required to carry this all on, even if you sometimes feel you break in half. And even if there are friends and family, at the very end, you will go alone and hopefully in peace with yourself. So, he knew exactly what he was talking about: "as long as there's sun, ... as long as there's me ...". This is a farewell, a last look back. You have to be physical alive and old enough, to remember the pain to loose someone, or some place, some idea, some picture, some thought, and then, for the first time, you really understand what time means - to waste time - while dealing with the issues of this world you did not fully understand - and people, you can not help or love, until you first start to help and love yourself. This song is like a slow motion, irreversibel heart attack of my youth and i love every line and every note of it. RIP Davie.

    Beautiful words.

    Never considered myself much of a Bowie fan , little did I know how much his music was ingrained in my psyche , still can't believe he is gone.
