What a gorgeous and criminally underappreciated tune. The same can be said for Ferry's entire catalogue. Subtlety and refinement are rare commodities these days, and Ferry has always lit the way in this regard. Love love love him. See Roxy live at all costs. Life changing!
It's the Eno touch to it. Plus that Roxy cow-poke thing that Bryan hits on with like what. 3 songs? If there is something & Prairie rose. You know what I mean. From 99-2002..a different time. He hit his moodiest with 'Where or When' from As time goes by. Anyway, gorgeous young ladies.
"Your streetcar named Desire... ....Subtitles when we speak... ....The flame within the fire.. Smothered in Gold." This is one of my all time favorites. Amazing lyric, so beautiful, and I love the huanting sweet sonic that Brian Eno contributes. Thanks for posting this!! Buy this record people!
Not even done listening to this ineffable ditty for the first time and already one of my favorites… describes the human condition and the pickle we all find ourselves in in this topsy-turvy world… so heartfelt and true… just incredible!! ‘ I thought’ , indeed! 😮
The greatest of them all - brilliant productivity throughout all of these exciting years, a true artist. Thank you Bryan and to everyone who has collaborated with you from the Roxy Music days to this very moment. Bravo, you helped/help make Life worth living ! 🤗
Bryan Ferry has the uncanny ability of creating the simplist song then adding textures and nuances that make it mesmerizing and capitvating. Truly a remarkable talent. Chris Spedding's spaghetti western guitar works perfectly here and he ad libs a bit at the end , not present in the studio version. I agree , Brian Eno's airey background treatments on the studio version are superior but Lucy Wilkins does an adequate job here.
leonakita, I agree and that same deft perfection is in my most loved Bryan Ferry video: th-cam.com/video/gazP_kXMwJs/w-d-xo.html With Colin Good and Chris Spedding, Bryan permorms a beautiful rendition of Goodnight Irene.
Don't think I've ever seen this man happier than during this performance. Some songs capture beautiful moments in time so well that we gratefully forget everything else before & after.
I have 2 memories of mr Bryan Ferry and this hauntingly beautiful song. One was a Live Aid concert but the first time I heard Boys & Girls I was with my mom and she was shopping for a dress at this black women owned Boutique in NYC , the owner this exotic black women head shaven bald enters from the back dressed in a black lace Victorian style gown with a fan to match and this song is playing. It literally felt like a music video and it changed how I viewed what music was as well as what black beauty was..
This was from Frantic. A brief respite where Ferry found some lyric writing and musical variation from Avalon.. Chris Spedding on guitar and The Great Paul Thompson on drums. Fabulous.
They wont bring You anywhere neither me...there is noone seeing what we see or feel..empty space and an evil dancing..stay just awake ,..the lost waltc..is just a perfection crawling around our love
Olde-time rhyming Gospel favorites are what I'm after. Sweaty pews and planes possessing “the gliding capabilities of a tool box” (John Lear) are what I'm after. Wine that inebriates children after the first couple of gallons is what I seek. I have a dog. He was given to me. I feed him. He eats. I walk him. He pisses on tires, poles, trees, weeds, and on the legs of end-tables. I'm thinking of giving him to somebody. I'm forever thinking.

COULD BE DONUT {Black presentiments!} Jim became an intestinal engineer during that first year working at the donut shop. He studied hard & after the first year he could make any donut with his eyes closed which he often did because he fell asleep on the job regularly which he seldom was, regular, what with the constipation & all. His hobbies included tapestry & Jew-baiting.

'I Thought' from the `Frantic' album is the only track on the album with the help of Brian Eno. Martin, Portobello, Dublin.
Totally agree, that jam near the end...sweet!
Check out Ferry's remixes on SoundCloud. From Olympia onward.
It's the Eno touch to it. Plus that Roxy cow-poke thing that Bryan hits on with like what. 3 songs? If there is something & Prairie rose. You know what I mean. From 99-2002..a different time. He hit his moodiest with 'Where or When' from As time goes by. Anyway, gorgeous young ladies.
Why underappreciated?.. By who? Everyone knows its the best track on Frantic.
This song is a terrific reunion of Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno.
I read something 20 years ago I never forgot ; "only two rock stars have the class to wear wristwatch, Bryan Ferry and David Bowie."
agreed but I can name one more - Robert Palmer
I absolutely agree..BTW, I worked on the film set of Zardoz in Ireland all those years ago...
"Your streetcar named Desire...
....Subtitles when we speak...
....The flame within the fire..
Smothered in Gold."
This is one of my all time favorites. Amazing lyric, so beautiful, and I love the huanting sweet sonic that Brian Eno contributes. Thanks for posting this!!
Buy this record people!
This is so good. I can hear Ferry and Eno equally on this. Love them both.

This Song Is wonderful, was written together with Brian Eno.
Amazing. Still puts all his peers to shame. A truly rare example of real talent.
As a red blooded heterosexual, I think Bryan Ferry is one of the sexiest men who've ever existed.
Nope. You're gay.
You can admire beauty in a man or a woman.
Totally
@@paulsmartialarts and you are like an old stupid person .. jaja
Amen brother !!
Great upload!!!!!!👍one of the best
The best track from Frantic and one of his best solo works period. Never thought I'd see it performed, thanks for posting!
The greatest of them all - brilliant productivity throughout all of these exciting years, a true artist. Thank you Bryan and to everyone who has collaborated with you from the Roxy Music days to this very moment. Bravo, you helped/help make Life worth living ! 🤗
Sometimes I think that this is his best song.
And ot had to be with Eno
@Rgalvez yes)
tip top, cream of the crop, Bryan is the greatest ever British lyricist.
Bernie taupin
@@glenncambray9783 Hahahahaha!!
One dream, that just won't die.
Marvellous, glorious.
One of my favorites.

leonakita Very well put! His singing is always distinct.

Wow! Thanks for the post! Can he be any cooler? So so classy and elegant! I just love this Bryan Ferry song! Not just thought....KNOW!

GOD

Jim hendrix,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Is there anything less than A+ Brian Ferry has performed?
Sounds like Slave to Love set to the music of Eno's "I'll Come Running To Tie Your Shoe"
They wont bring You anywhere neither me...there is noone seeing what we see or feel..empty space and an evil dancing..stay just awake ,..the lost waltc..is just a perfection crawling around our love
That brown haired female background singer was his girlfriend for a short time….. she had all the luck…. 😜

The song is OK. However, I feel that I must point out; there are a couple of commenters on here that have no connection with reality.
And for some reason, they are compelled to post multiple entries composed entirely of gibberish.
And your comment was completely unhelpful. Thanks for nothing. Just enjoy the music.
w0mbles who asked you?? shut your piehole, get a life, and enjoy the music.
frank waters You sound like a very bitter person. Relax.
If you don't like then clear OFF !
I ain't neo-modern & I seldom follow trends so quit fricasséeing fat
parrots & sparrows for me after I ordered a dozen barbecued wrens.
Nooo, no so good, no very cool, really, "carmin desire"?
euh!
Go wash your ears.
Just doesn't work live. Not a song I ever liked....sounds like Enya.
Love it! Sounds like Texas y'all!
Get fucked
NUNCA HABIA ESCUCHADO ESTE TEMA DE BRYAN FERRY..., ES FANTASTICO...
Co compuesta y cantada con Brian Eno
Don't love yourself at Burger King! They got cameras everywhere!
