David BOWIE: Miracle Goodnight CD. Check video

Description

“Miracle Goodnight” is a song from David Bowies album Black Tie White Noise, and was released as the third single from the album in October 1993.
While the previous two singles from the album, “Jump They Say” and “Black Tie White Noise”, covered issues such as mental illness and legal injustice, “Miracle Goodnight” features a more unabashed recurring theme of the album Bowies love for his new bride, Iman Abdulmajid. He declared the whole album “a wedding present” for Iman.
Released as a single, the song also had a music video directed by Matthew Rolston, featuring Bowie unmoved by a harem of beautiful women while singing the song to camera, as well as scenes of him in a jesters outfit, playing with mirrors, dressed as a mime, and even returning briefly to his fashion style as the Thin White Duke from 1976. “Miracle Goodnight” had the usual plethora of remixes his recent multi-format singles had featured and reached #40 in the UK Singles Chart.  One of the most underrated songs by David.

Lyrics:
Burning up each others’ love, burning up our lives
Tried all kinds of working out, miracle goodnight
Future full and empty knocking on my door
Ragged limbed and hungry mama
Miracle no more

(Skin tell me) turn it around
(Head tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing)

Morning star you’re beautiful, yellow dime on high
Spins around my little room, miracle goodnight
Even flower all alone, pazanane capeche
Haven’t got a death wish, just want a little more

(Skin tell me) turn it around
(Head tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) miracle goodnight
(Breath tell me) turn it around
(Heart tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) it was only make believe

I wish there was a sailor a thousand miles from here
I wished I had a future, anywhere

I love you in the morning sun, I love you in my dreams
I love the sound of making love, the feeling of your skin
The corner of your eyes, I long forevermore
I never want to say goodnight, miracle goodnight

(Skin tell me) turn it around
(Head tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) miracle goodnight
(Breath tell me) turn it around
(Heart tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) it was only make believe

Don’t want to know the past, I want to know the real deal
I really don’t want to know that
The less we know, the better we feel

Morning star you’re beautiful, yellow diamond high
Spinning around my little room, miracle

(Skin tell me) turn it around
(Head tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) miracle goodnight
(Breath tell me) turn it around
(Heart tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) it was only make believe
(Skin tell me) turn it around
(Moon tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) it was only make believe
(Eyes tell me)
(Judes tell me) nobody dancing
(Nobody dancing) miracle
(Skin tell me) tonight
(Head tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) nobody dancing
(Breath tell me) turn it around
(Heart tell me) make it alright
(Nobody dancing) it was only make believe
(Skin tell me) turn it around
