"Word on a Wing" is a song written and recorded by English singer-songwriter David Bowie in 1975 for the Station to Station album, where it appears as the closing track of the LP's first side. Bowie admits that the song was written out of a coke-addled spiritual despair that he experienced while filming The Man Who Fell to Earth. In 1980 Bowie spoke of the song to NME, claiming "There were days of such psychological terror when making the Roeg film that I nearly started to approach my reborn, born again thing. It was the first time I'd really seriously thought about Christ and God in any depth, and 'Word on a Wing' was a protection. It did come as a complete revolt against elements that I found in the film. The passion in the song was genuine... something I needed to produce from within my

  • "Word on a Wing" é uma canção de David Bowie do álbum Station to Station de 1976. Foi escrita enquanto ele fazia as filmagens do The Man Who Fell to Earth, dirigido por Nicolas Roeg. Segundo certos críticos, o elemento cristão desta canção representa outra forma do Thin White Duke "testar sua indiferença" através da religião. No entanto, o próprio Bowie clama que nessa faixa, ao menos, a "paixão é genuína". Segundo ele, "Havia dias de terror psicológico enquanto eu fazia o filme de Roeg que eu quase comecei a abordar meu renascimento, nascer de novo. Foi a primeira vez que eu pensei seriamente a respeito de Cristo e de Deus em sentido profundo, e 'Word on a Wing' foi uma proteção. A canção veio como uma completa revolta contra os elementos que eu fazia no filme. A paixão da música era genu (pt)
  • «Word on a Wing» — композиция, написанная Дэвидом Боуи в 1975 году для альбома Station to Station, она фигурирует в качестве заключительного трека первой стороны пластинки. По признанию самого Боуи, песня была написана во время духовного отчаяния, вызванного кокаином, которое он испытывал в период съемок фильма «Человек, который упал на Землю». В 1980 году, рассуждая о ней в интервью журналу NME, музыкант заявил: «Это были дни сильной психологической тревоги — во время создания фильма Николауса Роуга я почти начал чувствовать нечто вроде своего перерождения, возрождения. Это был первый раз, когда я по-настоящему начал думать о Иисусе и Боге во всех смыслах — „Word on a Wing“ стала моей защитой. Она была полной противоположностью тех вещей, который я нашел в фильме. Страсть в песне была иск (ru)
