Grace Slick should have been ashamed of herself. Blech!

My friend Chrystal loves this song! ^_^
I must say it's something of a classic, and I can't help but smile (in a good way) when I hear it.

It´s a great song.......

burni · Nov 19th, 2005, 04:34 PM

it is a good song, it is a great song compared too what starship "built" back then, but the video is funny, I would categorize this song for expressing
good economic situation, pre-globalisation, a song for

Young
Urban
Proffessionals

Yuppies

but Yuppies are Goodies

Great song, this is 80´s decade ! Here the lyrics :

Chorus:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

Say you don't know me, or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night

Ma Coley plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't youremember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write uf off the page

Ma Coley plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't youremember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Well if you got the toco, oh, then we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who writes the wrecking ball in two wild guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're just simple fools
Looking for America, coming through your schools

(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge
Out on a gorgeous sunny Saturday, I've seen that low amount oftraffic)

Don't you remember (remember)

(Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radiocity
The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that neversleeps)

Ma Coley plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't youremember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus repeats 2x

(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, webuilt this city)
(repeats out)

Everytime I hear this song I see myself in a red convertable on a sunny day driving around a city. I love this song. *But I hate cities*

??? This song is AGAINST globalisation, capitalism, etc...
It's Pro-Rock.

We built this city on rocknroll not on corporations.

Jefferson Airplane, then Jefferson Starship and then just Starship... You have to question the bands motivation for changing their name... Hey, where is the white rabbit???? ... Go ask Alice!!!
