April 3, 2016 - David Bowie - Sound and Vision (1977)


The music is sprightly and dreamy. Nice little guitar passage opens, bouncy bass, then cool descending waves of synthesizer. The music goes on like this for almost 1:30 before the first lyrics "Don't you wonder sometimes, 'bout sound and vision." This song is about waiting for creativity and inspiration. Bowie calmly waits in his blue room for the gift to appear. He never had to wait very long, creativity oozed out of his pores.
