The original version is pure Roxy ...Unfortunately, this is more akin to the drudgery that Bryan has consistently produced over the last 20+years ..... Roxy Music couldn't function without Ferry ...but the reverse is also true! This is more of a ' Taste of Ferry to Come ' than your actual 'Class...

This is the band The Beatles could have been ...... ;-)

What they couldn't do with the bullet in 1914, and with the bomb and the bullet in 1939, they'll do with the Euro in 2012 ....

Persistant devils, aren't they?

@BGSlopy Try telling that to the powers that be here who've voted that a T34 is a better tank than the Tiger! But light / medium / heavy is irrelevant ....an army puts out whatever resources it has ..and my point is that the best German tank on the battlefront was better than the best Soviet one...

DVT is a real classy chassis, but I can't ever imagine buying a Renault of any description LOL

@KILLAZXP300 Funny then that Brian Eno is quoted as saying Roxy's finest album is 'Stranded ' ....the first one WITHOUT him! Hahahahaha

Best lookin' female singer of all time, and one of the greatest drummers of the last 50 years ...not bad goin' in one band!! LOL

@CSXer A pretty good job? I'd say she blew Eddie out the water!! :-D ..and I've seen Roxy live with em' both ....

Great sound! Always gonna be difficult to fully emulate the ' Wilko Sound ' though with a plectrum ..perhaps because he plays not only with the downstroke of his fingernails, but also on upstroke with his thumbnail, a split second later, giving that ' 2 guitars playing ' sound effect. The old H...

Thanks for this! One of my fav Wilko Solid Sender gigs was in '79 (I think) when they played a little place on Oxford Road., Manchester. Mind you, I don't think this keyboard player was in the band on that night (poor guy doesn't seem to know any of the songs FFS!) Reckon it was John Denton whe...

Blazing Fountains ... Keyboard player doesn't seem to know the song! Don't know what he's playin, but it ain't THAT. What a pity 'ole John Potter wasn't on the Joanna that night , for sure

LOL

Sounds as fresh and innovative as it did 39 years ago!

This was the beginning of the Roxy Music ' Revelation' that started a whole new sub-culture within the music scene, and heavily influenced dozens of other famous bands for the next 10 years! Awesome....

A far,far better version than the gross disco pop single rubbish version! LOL

@loudampsfastbikes I'm 52 years old. I bought this record on vinyl when it came out. nobody else in my whole school liked this band but me, back in the day, where i lived.

That sounds familiar! LOL I'd heard the second single (Pyjamarama) and assumed it would be on the ' new ' album ...forge...

Great version of the song, but, as she's selling her album on the strength of it, it's a real con that it's NOT on the album! Another ' marketing ' rip-off :-( The track on the album is a dirge...

Whatever you do DONT BUY THE CD BASED ON THIS SONG - IT'S NOT EVEN ON IT! The version on the album is a slow dirge, which is a RIP-OFF, given that 99% of folk will buy the CD thinkin' that they're getting this version of the song!

Whatever you do DON'T BUY THE CD-THIS SONG ISN' T ON IT!! The Inside Out version on the CD is a slow prolonged dirge - and seein' as 99% of folk buying the CD are doing so based on THIS version of the song.... It's a RIP-OFF!

What a HUGE disappointment after so many other great releases! Can't believe Gaga's 'on the slide ' already??? Poor song - even poorer promo video ;-(

Imelda's bass player is none other than the Legendary Al Gare, former double bass player with King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys ....now he DOES know how to slap a double B! Wadda star!! LOL

Really cute, and with the voice of an angel too (Bitch!) LOL

There are a few great songs that should never, ever, be attempted by any person, other than the original artist ........... This is one of them .....

@sonsielass1

a perfect 'funeral song'!

I used to think so too .... if a little ..morbid ...

But my choice, for certain, will be 'Psalm' by Roxy Music ...... perfect for the occassion .... and a bit more upliftin' !!!

Did Roxy Music ever do this song live?

Yes - on their UK Tour 1974.... I think it was the opening song of the set (or thereabouts LOL)
