Lyrics

Like to take a ce ment fix

be a stand ing cin e ma.

Dress my friends up just for show,

(Am7)see them as they real ly are.

Put a peep hole in my brain,

two new pence to (A)have a go.

I’d like to be a (C)gal ler y,

(Am7)put you all in side my show.

(D)And y War hol (E)looks a scream,

(Am7)hang him on my wall;

(D)And y War hol (E)sil ver screen, can’t (Am7)tell them a part at all

An dy walk ing An dy tired,

An dy take a lit tle snooze;

tie him up when he’s a sleep,

(Am7)send him on a plea sant cruise.

When he wakes up on the sea,

be sure to think of me and (A)you.

He’ll think a bout paint and he’ll (C)think a bout what (Am7)jol ly bor ing thing to do.

(D)And y War hol (E)looks a scream,

(Am7)hang him on my wall;

(D)And y War hol (E)sil ver screen, can’t (Am7)tell them a part at all

About “Andy Warhol”

Why does the accompaniment for "Andy Warhol" show falling notes?
Falling Notes makes each chord visual — colored notes drop onto the keyboard so you can FEEL the rhythm of the backing before each entry. Singers find it easier to lock in with the piano's groove when they see the chord notes land instead of just hearing them.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Andy Warhol" by David Bowie in?
The backing track is in C at 120 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Andy Warhol" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Andy Warhol"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Andy Warhol", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "Andy Warhol" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
Can I download the accompaniment for "Andy Warhol"?
Yes — registered users can download MIDI + MusicXML (open in any notation software). PDF sheet music is also available for the full arrangement.
Who wrote "Andy Warhol"?
"Andy Warhol" was originally performed by David Bowie. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What other backing tracks by David Bowie are available?
Other accompaniments by David Bowie: "Absolute Beginners", "Ashes To Ashes", "Blackstar". Same toggle-the-melody, change-the-key setup.
Can I use "Andy Warhol" as a backing track for singing?
Yes — this is the piano accompaniment for Andy Warhol by David Bowie, with the chord notes falling visually so you can see exactly when each chord lands. Original key is C; transpose live to fit your voice.
How is this different from the bar-sheet accompaniment?
Same audio backing — different visualization. Falling notes show each chord note dropping in real time (like Synthesia), which makes the chord rhythm easier to feel. Use whichever view helps you stay on the beat.
