From his early days playing keyboards in Paris' Metro underground to his presence now at the helm of Beatnik, Thomas Dolby Robertson has always worked to merge creativity and technology into a cohesive musical expression. As a London teenager, Thomas Robertson was fascinated with the convergence of music and technology. His experiments with an assortment of keyboards, synthesizers and cassette players led his friends to dub him "Dolby". That same fascination later drove him to become an electronic musician and multimedia artist whose groundbreaking work fused music with computer technology and video.

(Submit New Thomas Dolby Lyrics) (Submit New Thomas Dolby Lyrics) One of the finest of the 1980's, a quarter century later | Reviewer: glenn ------ About the song She Blinded Me With Science performed by Thomas Dolby This song endures. And now I know all of the lyrics! Was buying a bicycle for my 7 year old Daughter the first time I recall hearing this Classic in April of 1983. My, how swiftly time flies. Thank You Thomas. bomb.com | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song She Blinded Me With Science performed by Thomas Dolby IRREFUTABLY one of the god damn BEST songs of the '80s. I commend you, Sir Dolby. It was us made her that way. | Reviewer: JacquesDanger ------ About the song Airhead performed by Thomas Dolby 20061006 I am sorry that I contributed to making this airhead what she is. Never-the-less, this brilliant song would not have been done if we had not made her that way. Glad Mr. Dolby is back. Saw his set at Berklee in Boston last Thursday. Still has the chops and still at the front of electonic. Early eighties classic! | Reviewer: Dean ------ About the album The Golden Age Of Wireless performed by Thomas Dolby Thomas Dolby's debut was a true synth pop classic! Every song on this album is solid. Go beyond "She blinded me with science" and you'll find gems like "Flying north" and "One of our submarines", his take on the Cold War. My personal favorite, though, is "Airwaves". It's much more subdued than "Science" and most of the other tracks, and it features a haunting, lonely sounding melodic theme. His synth work throughout the album is stunning, but he tempers it with humor in his lyrics ("her eyes so red and her lips so blue"-from "Radio silence"). When he recorded this album, he knew he had great songs but didn't take them too seriously. You can tell he had a blast making this music. The results are a lot of fun to hear. I just listened to my vinyl copy earlier today. For me, listening to this album is like visiting an old friend who you haven't seen in twenty years. One of the best from that era.
