The most famous song from the reissued version of the album, it's a defiantly quirky, strange number that mixes its pop hooks with unusual keyboard melodies pitched very low and a recurrent spoken word interjection ("Science!") from guest vocalist/video star Magnus Pike.

The most famous song from the reissued version of the album, it's a defiantly quirky, strange number that mixes its pop hooks with unusual keyboard melodies pitched very low and a recurrent spoken word interjection ("Science!") from guest vocalist/video star Magnus Pike. To Thomas Dolby's credit, the rest of the album isn't simply that song over and over again, making The Golden Age of Wireless an intriguing and often very entertaining curio from the glory days of synth pop. Part of the album's overall appeal is the range of participating musicians, no doubt thanks in part to Dolby's own considerable range of musical work elsewhere. "She Blinded Me with Science" itself features Kevin Armstrong on guitar, Matthew Seligman on bass, mega-producer Robert "Mutt" Lange on backing vocals, and co-production with Tim Friese-Greene. Elsewhere, Andy Partridge contributes harmonica, Mute Records founding genius Daniel Miller adds keyboards, and Lene Lovich adds some vocals of her own. The overall result is still first and foremost Dolby's, with echoes of David Bowie's and Bryan Ferry's elegantly wasted late-'70s personas setting the stage. If anything, The Golden Age of Wireless is the friendlier, peppier flip side of fellow Bowie obsessive Gary Numan's work, where the melancholy is gentle instead of harrowing. Dolby's melodies are sprightly without being annoyingly perky, his singing warm, and his overall performance a pleasant gem. Especially fine numbers include the amusing romp "Europa and the Pirate Twins" and the nostalgia-touched, just mysterious enough "One of Our Submarines." ~ Ned Raggett, Rovi

She Blinded Me With Science
Thomas Dolby Lyrics

It's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

Mm, but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And failed me in biology, yeah-yeah

Now-uh, huh-huh
When I'm dancing close to her
Blinding me with science, science
Science

I can smell the chemicals
Blinding me with science, science
Science
Science

Mm no, but it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And failed me in geometry

When she's dancing next to me
Blinding me with science, science
Science

Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm

I can hear machinery
Blinding me with science, science
Science

Huh, it's poetry in motion
And now she's making love to me
The spheres are in commotion
The elements in harmony

She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And hit me with technology

Good heavens Miss Sakamoto, you're beautiful

I, I don't believe it
There she goes again
She's tidied up and I can't find anything
All my tubes and wires
Careful notes
And antiquated notions

But, it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

Uh, she's blinding me with science
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with

A few facts about this video:

- Thomas Dolby came up with the idea for the video before coming up with the song. He wrote the song just to have something to fit his "Home for Deranged Scientists" music video concept.

- The lab assistant in the video is Siobhan Barron, a vogue model and Steve Barron's producer and sister. Thomas met her when he was looking to hire Steve to director for the video. She looked at his video concept drawings, was impressed, and encouraged him to direct it himself.

- Magnus Pyke, the main scientist in the video, could not escape people coming up to him publicly and yelling "SCIENCE!!!". He lamented that people knew him better from She Blinded Me With Science then they did for his scientific work.

PS, please check out Dolby's album The Golden Age of Wireless. It's a wonderful piece of work and turned me into a huge fan of is. He has so many underrated songs.

@Robert Kurowsky I believe you are correct, sir. Seems like back-in-the-day there was an MTV VJ that spoke of that.

Interesting considering the song is so well known compared to the video. I've been a fan of the song my whole life and today is my first time seeing the video. It's good, but the song's quality kind of eclipses it.

I just love this song and never heard it even though I was 8 in 1982. It's now my aim to get the golden age of wireless! Science!

When I want to go back to the best time and my childhood the 80's I listen to music like this.

Thomas Dolby is the technology king who graced the 80’s music video scene. Blind ME with science!

If Christopher Lloyd's character from Back to the Future was to sing a song, this would be it. "Science!"

I love the stories about Dolby having to deal with the ‘doctor’ in this video (he hosted a science show in the UK).

He refused to wear a lab coat for fear of being fined for ‘impersonating a doctor’, and he constantly bugged Dolby for a ride home during the whole shoot!

It's hard to judge which older songs transcend time and I think this is one that has pretty good acceptance. The video is so weird it's awesome.

The pinnacle of 1980s music videos. And to think, as far as I know, other than this the talented and handsome Thomas Dolby had no other hits.

It's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

Mm, but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And failed me in biology, yeh yeh

Now uh, huh huh
When I'm dancing close to her
Blinding me with science, science
Science

I can smell the chemicals
Blinding me with science, science
Science
Science

Mm, but it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And failed me in geometry

When she's dancing next to me
Blinding me with science, science
Science

Mmm mmm, mmm mmm, mmm

I can hear machinery
Blinding me with science, science
Science

Huh, it's poetry in motion
And now she's making love to me
The spheres're in commotion
The elements in harmony

She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And hit me with technology

Good heavens Miss Sakamoto, you're beautiful

I, I don't believe it
There she goes again
She's tidied up and I can't find anything
All my tubes and wires
And careful notes
And antiquated notions

But, it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony

Unh, she's blinding me with science
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with

Is it good when he says, “I can smell the chemicals”? I don’t think so but I need to confirm.

I like the players too. And I've associated with too many to lose. So, I won't. I'll leave it as it is: better, more, rich, double volumes brains, everything.

Not if you understand the metaphor, it's quite clever. I think it's a very interesting way of describing being resistant while falling madly in love with someone. I like that the song and video is rather goofy too.😊

Funny how this video often starts with ads for grammerly, a software known to be a potential key logging security risk. Considering every PC & Tablet & Cell phone has built in spell checking, not much need to send your data 1/2 way around the planet to have it monitored by foreign servers...
