I Engineer

"I Engineer" is a 1986 song by American new wave band Animotion. In the song, the protagonist says to his enemy in the form of the lyrical ego, that he will win.

After the release, the song was a commercial success in Europe (#2 in Germany), but was less of a hit in the United States.

Music video
The video for "I Engineer" was shot in Blackheath, England, in the abandoned Royal Herbert Hospital.

There are also scenes crossing London Bridge, with the iconic building of the Financial Times newspaper in the background and people walking towards the city. Joined with the song lyrics, this may point to a criticism of banking or business culture.
