Thomas Dolby - Windpower Lyrics
Switch off the mind and let the heart decide
Who you were meant to be
Windpower
Flick to remote and let the body glide
Windpower
Etch out a future of your own design
Well tailored to your needs
Yeah,
Windpower
Then fan the flame and keep the dream alive
Of a continent, a continent, a continent, a continent, a..
There is no enemy
Windpower
Switch off the mind and let the heart decide
We're a continent, a continent, a continent, a continent, a..
Shatter the lens and grind it into sand
Windpower
One measured exposure
Yeah
Scatter the seed and furrow in our land
The future is roses! Roses!
Windpower
Switch off the mind and let the heart decide
There is no enemy!
Yeah,
Windpower
Lift up the hearts of this your only tribe
We're a continent, a continent, a continent, a continent, a..
Yeah!
We're a continent, a continent, a continent, a continent, a..
Yeah!
Windpower
...Northwest, nearly north, four or five. Variable, three, in south-of-west
Showers in east, good. Sole, Lundy, Fastnet, Irish Sea
Northerly four to six, locally seven; decreasing three or four, locally five
Showers at first, good. Shannon, Rockall, Northwest...

Thomas Dolby Windpower Comments
Reminds me of Animal Collective for some reason
What is wrong with the ending?
@The Living Gamer
It’s the same on my vinyl.
Wind power forecasts for ships 😂
@tinylilmatt I get it now!😄.
1:36 the flute
The whispered “Pow”
Then the very Britsh “WINDPOWER”
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nobody does this kind of detail in sounds, melody, creativity and manipulation anymore except for Boris Blank of Yello.
Thomas Dolby will always be remembered for his creativity and genius. I wish I could meet the man...I grew up on him and now I’m 52...
This man provided the soundtrack to my high school years. Listening to these songs takes me right back to that era.
Yes indeed 😎👍
I'm intrigued how Thomas Dolby seems to be focussing on topics in 1982 that seem oddly appropriate in todays world. Stuff like "Windpower", "Flat-earth" and "Wireless" are very much topics of today. :)
there *is no enemy*?? dang, man! that's a little, huhuh, embarrassing! ah well! no harm, no foul, i hope!!!
WIND POWER ! Switch off the mind. Let the ❤ decide
Very evocative, the eighties were under estimated
Great remix, some of the keyboard lines are much more prominent in the Mix.
Excelent sound was that sir thankyou verry relaxing through my bose headphones on full pelt! Verry soothing listening to the words! I might be able to sleep tonight thankyou!
Hauntingly Beautiful.
Evocative, magnificent.
1982! right?
@tinfoilhatter It's 6 in the morning and I've been up all night playing music from 1982 or thereabouts while doing stuff I've been trying to get completed. Heard a pretty decent dawn chorus outside in between a couple of songs,first time I've heard that in a long time so had to stand in the doorway to the garden with a cup of char for a while and just listen to it.
@Ralph Jackson i'm on a lost plane! i should've taken the traaaaaa-hain! ~
@Ralph Jackson hey it's spring again, , finally, but here in michigan, it just don't look that way quite yet
@tinfoilhatter Oh. None of the planes I've been on have managed to get themselves lost so far. I hope you have a safe flight,wherever you are and wherever you land.
@tinfoilhatter I'm in Hertfordshire,England and it seems to be finally arriving this week though we've had a much milder winter than last year - unlike North America! I was once on a 4-seater plane flying over the Rockies in Canada. This scenery was fantastic.

I always used to think he was singing “With a contenator”
Never knew what one was 😂
@tinylilmatt I always thought it was "a continental."
