Lyrics

When comes the shaking man
A nation in his eyes
Striped with blood and emblazed tattoo
Streaking cathedral spire

They say
He has no brain
They say
He has no mood
They say
He was born again
They say
Look at him climb
They say Jump

They say
He has two gods
They say
He has no fear
They say
He has no eyes
They say
He has no mouth

They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd
They say Jump

Watch out!

Got to believe somebody
Got to believe

Jump
Got to believe somebody
Jump
Got to believe

They say jump

About David Bowie:
David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

Unpopular opinion, but Jump They Say is actually my 2nd favourite Bowie song. A criminally underappreciated masterpiece.

[kimmolaine]

No one in the history of this world has been more stylish entering and exiting elevators than Bowie. :)

[ArtTube]

Jesus Christ this man left so much music and art for us it's unbeliavable

[podpower]

In my opinion this is one of Bowie's best. Slayed by the critics, but it is incredibly powerful. One of my favorites!

[jeezr]

No one wears a suit better than Mr Bowie

[Aliogana]

His brother was the inspiration for this song. Sad but creative song

[IsItOrNot]

He's so beautiful in this video, it hurts

[sweetbermudaonions]

Bowie could sing the damn phone book and make it amazing!

I absolutely LOVE that shot of him at 1:36 walking out of his office and everyone rising as he walks past while checking his watch. Just so classy and suave and badass.

[hunkystephaudio]

the way david copes with the idea of grief is so subtle and powerful. he always manages to make a big deal out of the most intimate details. this song is about terry, his schizophrenic brother who eventually committed suicide. jeez, what a song. the chorus can be easily misinterpreted as inspirational, as in 'jump' means 'take a risk and change your life' but something makes me think that again he talks of the alienation of mental illness. he even references the movie 'la jetee' in this video. david was just on another level artistically and visually compared to any of his contemporaries. light years ahead.

[berniprinci]

These re-uploadings are giving me life

[KamiloPerez]

This music video was ahead of its era.

[MarkCox]

Happy Birthday David - We miss you!! January 8, 2024

[Sisyphean]

Still fresh and innovative 26 years later. David Bowie is his own genre.

[CyberSpiral]

Not only my favorite Bowie song but one of my favorite songs ever created ever in the history of human music. I can't listen to it enough or heap enough praise on it. It is relentlessly listenable, energetic, and it to this day has this future sound that nothing in the past 20 years has come close to touching. This is what music today should have sounded like. Instead music today simultaneously sucks enough to be distressing yet bland and soulless enough that I can't really even remember the names of any recent songs released at all. Thank God we got to have Bowie to leave us actual, real music to listen to for these dark and creatively dead times.

[christinechumley]

Okay, I'm totally obsessed with this song now!!

[historiador]

Underrated song, underrated video and album. "Black Tie White Noise" was my first Bowie album and it was very ahead of its time

[thelastperfectman]

Here’s a trivia tidbit if you don’t know: the trumpet solo was also the played by “Bowie, ” but not this Bowie. A trumpet player named Lester Bowie who “the” Bowie asked to play on the song. Pretty cool.

[carolhenderson]

Beautiful man, exquisite hands. Saw Mr. BOWIE in
1974 U.S. tour of Ziggy Stardust, changed our lives
Forever. 80 yrs old & still a Bowie rocker.😅

[tonyr.]

THIS IS MY NUMBER-ONE SONG FROM BOWIE (and that's saying a great deal considering the wealth of music he blessed us with), I miss him very much.
