Your brick story

These are the lyrics of a song by David Bowie

And here is my current favourite version - what would I have done if you hadn't got me hooked on You Tube?

There is a wonderful woman featured on this clip called Gail Ann Dorsey who has a wonderful voice.

This is as much for me as you - we are in a space - maybe it will be good for others too.


Pressure pushing down on me
People on streets -
People on streets -
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher high high
Pressure on people - people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
but it's so slashed and torn
Why ?
Love l
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And loves dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
