    Lyrics
    If there is something
    That I might find
    Look around corners where you
    Try to find peace of mind
    I say, where would you go
    If you were me
    Try to keep a straight course
    Not easy
    Somebody special
    Looking at me
    A certain reaction we find
    What should it try to be?
    I mean, if there are many
    Meaning the same
    Being specific
    It’s just a game
    I would do anything for you
    I would climb mountains
    I would swim all the oceans blue
    I would walk a thousand miles
    Reveal my secrets
    More than enough for me to share
    I would put roses ‘round our door
    Sit in the garden
    Growing potatoes by the score
    Shake your head girl
    With your ponytail
    Takes me right back
    When you were young
    Threw your precious gifts
    Into the air
    Watched them fall down
    When you were young
    Lift up your feet
    And put them on the ground
    You used to walk upon
    When you were young
    Lift up your feet
    And put them on the ground
    The hills were higher
    When you were young
    Lift up your feet
    And put them on the ground
    The trees were taller
    When you were young
    Lift up your feet
    And put them on the ground
    The grass was greener
    When you were young
    Lift up your feet
    And put them on the ground
    You used to walk upon
    When you were young

    Mass media has made it so difficult to be original and it seems we've heard everything a million times. Yet somehow this song still holds up as completely unique and wonderful at the same time. I doubt any version has ever been exactly the same and I doubt anyone could ever copy it. I heard this song for the first time on Flashbacks of a Fool and was blown away! I have a theory that the truly great pieces of music are divinely inspired and are meant to find people at particular times. This song found me and I'll forever be touched by it!

      So nicely said. One of my favs since it first came out and it never gets old. And, believe it or not, it didn’t get a lot of air play when it came out!
      Yet, when people find it, they gravitate to know this song. That’s what makes this band and Ferry a genius
      Timeless, classic and it’s good to know people are still finding their way to Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry.

      Completely true about mass media overexposure... it breeds derivative output from artists. You can often hear musicians trying not to play what they learned by imitation. Nice version here, great song. Also really dig the Tin Machine cover.

    • @seanbryant-smith5662
      @seanbryant-smith5662 Год назад

      Roxy debut album maybe 🤔. It doesn't count with me. Great before roxy. Roxy is nothing without Ferry. There is life after Roxy too not playing with his best friends more often than not. Roxy about sharing their collaborations & formal remuneration agreements. So little wonder Brian Ferry morphed into Roxy music. Evolution of an artist. Let's stick together his biggest selling song made more money than a few albums he released. He knows it too rarely leaving the song from a play list not to dissapoint his supporters.

    • @jamesblatchford3738

    I first heard this when I was 15, at 5am when it came on during a movie. I sent it to my online best friend as fast i as I could find it. It would induce me into a trance. 6 years later, me and my online best friend met in Paris and drunkenly listened and danced to this precious song after midnight. I am listening to it all the time again, it feels like the first time each time. Beyond precious to me
