first i like to say: great work done by the outfigurer second: there are some kind of really annoying type errors: pricliple = principle os=so racimg=racing mohter=mother and by the way: "if im tired, im tired of telling you. im never tired of always been better than you" a sligthly different sense in a way ;-) best wishes |

| great song. one of the all-american-songbook types. i still wonder if this girl standing on the balcony is thinking about killing herself by jumping | |

i also appreciated the story of coo2kachoo. found it very honest and funny too :);) the first comment on this page about one of the greatest bowie songs is just bullshit. i just didnt see ANY clues, guiding to holocaust... my opinion about the song is, that it reflects bowies attitude towards soul asylums, in an ambivalent way. on the one hand, he never gave himself in the hands of psychiatric help at all, on the other hand, in this song, he shows feelings, that reflect a open minded attitude. so to say, he idealizes the life and the people in asylums, as self opted parias. flavor this, with some personal history about his brother and i think, you have the meaning. at least an interesting meaning ;) |

i overread the interpretations on this side and i have to write: "i think most of us are on the wrong, much to religious path" iam a david bowie fan for about eight years now and have all of his major works on cd. i also read the biography by christopher sandford. that just to declare myself. i can imagine bowie when he write the song in 1972. it was a time of social storms and rebuildings. my theorie is: he just met a very straight, buisness man on a stair ANYWAY. (i dont agree with schr4nz, that there is a deeply founded symbolik thing in it) perhaps this man talked about a deal he newly made or or or... bowie just pissed him off and said something like "i thought you died alone" :) i see this song as davids statement about money, capitalism and career. the thing, that nirvana also covered the song on their unplugged-album, guides in the same direction. this is my opinion, tell me yours. mfg thehexman |

| David Bowie – Strangers When We Meet Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| i think this i one of davids greatest an most epic songs. it s about him as an old, tired man, meeting a new girl and being glad, that she doesnt know anything about his future. so he is allowed to start all over again. | |
