Such a brilliant song. I loved seeing them live a long long time ago now. Brilliant. Eno made me want to play keyboards and Andy got me playing sax so they were really an influence.
Saw these guys in 1976 or 77 in Perth Australia. Favourite band of all time. Listening to this song made me want to get to Venice with the line, "Through silken waters, my gondola glides & the bridge , it sighs". What a beautiful line. Got to Venice with my wife in 2014 & 2016. Thanks Bryan & RM.
The only thing I ever stole in my life was the first Roxy Album. I was staying with a friend from Boarding school in Rabaul, Papua new Guinea. 1977. I remember the feeling of fright and freedom as I sprinted down the street with the record under my shirt! Class act always Bryan Ferry, Thomson, Jobson, Manzanera et al. Music, art, magic, and poetry combined. How Rappers decide that saying the same word or phrase 24 times, rather than 36 times is art, I know not. Maybe music classes should be free and obligatory?
Not a good thing to do at any cost is it ? I was not earning much at the time but I bought mine by saving every week. I am sure mine sounded much better than yours.
I remember..., lost in the moment and this regular background, a soundtrack to my early life which l have rarely needed to play again. Nice rendition of a superb song, smoooth..
I quite agree. Paul could sometimes be a bit heavy handed but he gave the track depth, gave it body.. This guy’s snare sounds like something from a toy kit and the tuning on the tom toms is just wrong. Overall a great performance though - as ever with Ferry.
Jelly moon spill its lie in abscence of love..You're only beautiful..as well as then..when it seemed I could feel the stars whisper..touch the shiver of lonely hearts that close beating..and now its peblle under my shoulder..and sand on Your forarms is vintage of sorrow..tears that wont fall down..cause heart is hurted..and hands.in devotion lonely...
That's 2001, from one of their last excellent concerts. Bryan Ferry is good with the vocals, and the piano intro is wonderful. Here Mr. Ferry's vocals are still better.
Got to agree the Apollo 2001 version is the better. Was there both nights for that show. Seen the song performed many times by Roxy Music but the version on those nights was the best. The long piano intro by Colin Good built up the drama of the song. I can remember, even 21 years on, that my eyes filled up with tears during the song as it was such an emotional performance. You could see from the audience reaction how powerful the performance was. Saw them a week ago at the O2. They didn't play it. Not surprising. I don't Bryan's voice is powerful enough now to carry it off. He is 77 after all!
Am I..I'm done of calculating..From where I'm standing it seems all is mine guilty..funny to somebody..recent day..night..nights...years..a century..milleniu'm..life..a life..Join 'em my Lady..burn eternal flames put down..in waiting with both your rules..Everything but ..now ..my love burn on the walls soundless to pray for me..shaddows I touched like the Gral..burn all I couldnt light up..waiting cause You're the best doing that ..Guess You wont change my enthusiastic manners to explain..that I got nothing..to buy waiting..but time
Andy's sax solo is terrific.
This band changed my musical life! From 13 in 1974 what a life since! 👌Never be bettered.👌👍

They are great, but would you be shocked to know that it's a metaphor for (ahem), intercourse - not literally water, gondolas or bridges?

Written by Andy Mackay with Ferry the music shows some excellent sax to reinforce the songs mood and sadness.
How I envy the audience, would have liked to see him that young
I came by on a rainy snowy windy afternoon & sit alone in Saint Michael quiet cafe...I remember...
Seen Roxy and Ferry, 1973 and 1983, Cobo Hall Detroit, fantastic
Excellent, say no more.
Wow!! What a performance....am crying so beautiful. ! 🌹@bryanferry ❤
great song! and a terrific rendition of it! thanks for posting
Wonderful....loving Andy's work!
Magnifique 👍😉
just outstanding ROXY as always.
*MASTERPIECE!!!* 💎💎💎

The very best version of this song live or otherwise ..a classic..inspiring..
Sublime Par Excellence!
Though the world is my oyster it's only a shell full of memories, and here by the seine casts a long lonely shadow, right up there with DYLAN.
Missing the Great Paul Thompson !!!!
I do not know who is this drummer, but he's good, too.
Andy Newmark was the drummer but this wasn’t the real Roxy Music. Can’t be without The Great Paul Thompson!!!
I quite agree. Paul could sometimes be a bit heavy handed but he gave the track depth, gave it body.. This guy’s snare sounds like something from a toy kit and the tuning on the tom toms is just wrong. Overall a great performance though - as ever with Ferry.
Always someone that thinks they know better..f. off wanker@johnenglish929
1982 Brussels - Driving back to the Netherlands in 2 cars with exchanged partners... Haha heavy times!
Именно этот концерт под открытым небом, считаю самым лучшим видео снятым их в живом исполнении в 1982 году!!!
The one and only MR COOL. 🇬🇧
Esse é um exemplo de quando os elementos da existência reúnem as pessoas certas pra eternizar algo maravilhoso....
Wow x
Top the Top. Vive Europe.
Muy bueno man!

Epic!
I prefere: Roxy Music - A Song For Europe (Live at the Apollo 2001) (Including piano intro by Colin Good)
thanks , you re right magnificent cover
❤❤❤❤😂😂Danke nochmal für den ❤❤❤😂😂❤Danke.fürs Senden
What does Bryan say exactly at the intoduction of the song?
Here's a song specially written with you in mind.
Thanks!!
Gotta say, the Apollo, London 2011 version with the full piano intro, and better
sound is, I think, much , much better . Just saying
I agree with you 100%. It was closer to the studio version and the tempo and sound is much better.
That's 2001, from one of their last excellent concerts. Bryan Ferry is good with the vocals, and the piano intro is wonderful.
Here Mr. Ferry's vocals are still better.
@@krollpeter Whoops ! sorry, fat finger, 2001 it is.....
@@pennyrosemadison2897 no problem at all, enjoy Roxy Music!

Goodbye Europe xx who's here on 31/01/2020?
Agree!
One if the best. Great in their day. Saw them live a few years back in Auckland. Huge disappointment.
Another variety of Lou Reed’s perfect day. An epic song
You have no clue what your talking about.
Your stupid bulls...🤣😂should be erased, Effi K.

Best ever? Somebody's tone deaf. Just stick to the album version.
Let this be a warning of the dangers of coke.
Edit: irony
