Guess the song.

I will.

I just listened to Conversation Piece and indeed "I live above the grocers store,
owned by an Austrian" come from it.


"She cries "Where have all Papas' heroes gone?" "

Right... so a little bit earlier than Twin Peaks then

It's Young Americans

"Here I stand, foot in hand, talking to my wall,
I'm not quite right at all."

All the madmen

"Weaving down a byroad, singing the song
That's my kind of highroad gone wrong"

Beauty and the Beast


"She wants my honey, not my money."

Hang on to yourself !

"When all the world is warm and tired
You cry a little in the dark
Well so do I"

I'll need some hints for this one...

The song is about a (real) woman David was in love with.

If you find who she is, then i think you'll find the song...

Is it pre-"The Man Who Sold the World"?
If so, the girl must be Hermione Farthingale. I have no idea what the song is though... :-/

Yes, the girl is Hermione Farthingale and it's pre-TMWSTW.
It's not difficult ! I can't help you more ! You already have a half of the title...

Ok, I'm embarrased...
I went "huh???" and checked what songs were on the 1969 album, and indeed there is the "Letters to Hermione" song.
I... can... not... remember... the... song...

Don't be embarassed, you can't remember all the songs ! I don't know all the songs neither.

You finally have found the right answer so can you give me some lyrics please ?

"The shutters lifted in inches in temperance building,
high on Poacher's Hill."

(This is either very easy or quite difficult - I cannot decide)

Quite difficult.
I need some help.

I'll give you some more of the lyrics

"The shutters lifted in inches in temperance building,
high on Poacher's Hill.
And red mutant eyes gaze down on Hunger City.
No more big wheels."

Did that help?

nope.

It sounds familiar but i'm not even sure i really know it

What about this?

"this ain't rock and roll, this is genocide!"

Awesome reply!

It's Future Lengend (on my CD at least).
Good job!

"Over the bushland over the trees
Wise like Orangutan that was me"

No idea... *speaking in Bowie accent* Give us a hint, luv!

Berlin trilogy.

Right. I was going to suggest it was from Lodger (because of the travelling theme), but I wasn't sure

I'll guess African Night Flight?

yes it is ! Bravo !

Yay!

"I got a bad migraine,
that lasted three long years.
And the pills that I took,
Made my fingers disappear."
