His place has always been so mediocre but this song and its totality it’s so beautiful and his lyrics are acceptable but he’s nowhere great musician he just got lucky his voice is very very poor
Sometimes a song comes along that helps fill a void in our lives. Often times that song will be played on repeat 100 times until we feel its done its job.
It's like the very moment the non dairy cream rises up from the middle of my coffee and swirls around . . . while i look to my left and three 6 week old kittens are staring at me heads turned to the side, in july

The Mary who resides in me greets the Mary who resides in almost all women. Strong and sweet Mary. Palmer, wherever he is, he's sure to smile with this beautiful version... ❤️🌷
Few people deserve the opportunity to cover timeless classics. I could say that Bryan Ferry is one of the few that does, he like Robert Palmer has a great voice, he has the class and the musical gravitas to pull it off. Well done sir.
This cover is atmospheric and has sense of haunting, depression , reminiscing , just adds new dimension to this great song , miss one of fav Robert Palmer . All respect to Bryan Ferry
Holy mother of Jesus!!! This is beyond magical and a lost gem. Hearing it again like for the first time ❤😢 on my 40th Birthday Month gift from the Gods. Pure Gold. My name means i can dust into to gold. The tide is turning ...in my flavour of pure joy happiness superceding all MAN constructs religions mass destructions we willl raise again. 🙌 see u on the ther side my dear loved ones. May the GODS SURVIVE !!!
I have seen and heard the original performer (Robert Palmer) perform this live and most recently in 1988 at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York. Check out the original, on 1980's "Clues," by Robert Palmer.
Мне тоже нравятся колоски на ветру , воздух , дождь, шляпы в небе, дымка от сигарет, ночной город , огни небоскрёб, прохладный воздух....Брайн я тебя люблю ❤
Absolutely a beautifully haunting rendition. WOW...I don't think Mr Ferry has ever made a bad cover of any song, he takes them and owns them. What vision, what talent, what pleasure it has been for me listening to him since the early 70s
Dang, Bryan Ferry is aging well. Still a handsome, handsome man. Love the dreamy gaze of an artist immersed in creating lyrics and music. Great song and video.
One word, masterpiece. If Robert could only listen to this i bet he would be very pleased. Bryan gave it a new dimension, this version is the pinacle of this song, absolutly no doubt...fantastic, unearthly, deep and haunting.
Ten utwór jest zadziwiająco smutny i melancholijny. Ot, idealny dla faceta 50+, który wiele już widział i w niewiele wierzy. Johnny says he's willing to learn when he decides he's a fool... But it is not an easy decision... We feel fools almost all the time. Our chances have gone away and all what we can to do is running around...
That is the best version of this song for me. It really give the ambiance of the story. A beautifull arrangment and the vocal of Mr Ferry makes a perfect pair. Love!!!
Brian is pure genius, the coolest man in music ever. I didn't think he had anything left to offer, then I found this song, I hope there is more to come because he is way ahead of anything that is mainstream these days.
Did you know it's actually a cover version of Robert Palmer's song from 1980? Both are superb, but this is a more slowed-down and sophisticated interpretation.
First it's not his song, it's a song by Robert Palmer. Secondly Todd Terje is the genius at play here as he composed the song. Bryan Ferry just lent his voice to the song.
@@quietstorm8129 What do you mean by sour grapes? First of all I'm a huge fan of Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry. Secondly, what part of this cover version was made by Todd Terje (included in his first album 'It's Album Time') and Bryan Ferry sings in it you don't understand?
Послушала эту песню в исполнении пяти исполнителей и эта версия самая лучшая! Она, как вино, чем старее, тем вкуснее! Аранжировка прекрасная, вокал- всё супер!
Encontré está canción por casualidad, casualidades del destino. Ahora cada mañana la pongo al despertar, es de lo más hermoso escucharla mientras preparo mi café. Una gama de inmensas emociones me invade al escucharla, definitivamente, ¡la AMO!
Hearing this song for the first time. Bryan Ferry’s voice has changed but still remains beautiful and haunting. Absolutely adore this song. Terje needs more recognition.
Très belle voix feutrée comme une invitation à se blottir...Magnifique mélodie 🎼🎵🎶🎶🎶💎♥️Très belle vidéo noir et blanc qui sublime cette superbe chanson. MERCI❣️🇫🇷...10.10.2022
I saw him in Toronto during the summer. AMAZING! I've been a fan since 2007 when I first heard his music. I couldn't believe how many songs he, and roxy music, has/have that I love!
I as well heard this version first and fell in love with it without knowing there was an original version but the original version by Robert Palmer was also addicted ❤
Running around ....a circle of desperation! This is a very haunting version and I completely enjoy Mr. Bryan Ferry with this version. It is a shame that people can't enjoy the moments of life.
No puedo estar más de acuerdo con tigo, hay que capturar cada momento de la vida con esa o esas personas especiales y amadas, que se graven en la memoria y la retina❤
Bryan Ferry is the most handsome man I have ever set eyes on, and wow can he sing. This is a lovely rendition of Palmer's song. Slowing it down the way he has adds such tenderness to the song and the little banjo riff is delightful. I love it x love you Bryan xx
Been a fan of Brian and Roxy Music since the days of "The Strand." Thirty-five years ago Robert conceived "Johnny and Mary" during a different Zeitgeist and Brian chose to record his rendition now as a older man with a world weary sound and a mature voice. Different tempos for different folks and times.
I know what you mean, however this cover captures the desperation so perfectly, from the woman's perspective (for an older man to see it from that point of view is a triumph alone, you don't really see Johnny in the video - although the dog symbolises him). The sadness is so evocative, the tragedy so clear, especially when she hangs her head from the car at the end. The video of the original Palmer song is partly to blame, the mime act of the original was less thoughtful and lacked pathos; it was too frantic. Very surface 80s you could say, while this video is beautiful, exquisite and timeless. But then, videos have matured too. Haunting.
God, how wonderful this is! An amazing and enchanting voice, a video from which you can’t take your eyes off, music that makes your heart skip a beat. This is real magic, which I so sorely lack today.
Scusate signori miei, ma qui si sta parlando di Bryan Ferry, con tutto il rispetto non vedo cosa ci sia da stupirsi di fronte alle sue prestazioni!.....è Bryan Ferry cavolo!, cioè uno dei veri fuori classe
Johnny and Mary is an all time classic - to cover is a damned hard job. You made a fantastic new version of it, with completely different melancholic mood. Robert Palmer would have loved it!
I have always loved this song. It has been covered by many people, yet it never became a big hit. This version is pure class, too sophisticated for this world we're living in right now! Just a minor personal criticism about this edit: I miss the fading rimshots at the end, because they remind me of 1985. :)
' too sophisticated for the world we're living in now' .. pop culture has always had a treacle-top face , there is a lot of marvelous music being practiced now and the 'pop' end is but just but one genre of many..
This is hands down the best version of the song I’ve ever heard. This arrangement conveys the song’s message at a much more emotional level than the upbeat original did

Any ding Bryan Ferry puts his mind to also puts his his heart into it which makes it haunting but calming at the same time love his music and always will
This is how you do a cover - make it your own with a great collaborator like Todd Terje. One of the best releases of the last year - full marks to the director and dp of this elegantly balanced video.
To whoever is listening to this song now, wherever you are.... Sending you love, peace, healing and all good wishes. May your life be good❤
You too ❤
Спасибо! И Вам благополучия, мира в душе и любви!!!❤❤❤
Thank you 😊
Same to you 😊
Bryan Ferry's voice is hauntingly beautiful. No other voice comes close. Im in tears. This is such a masterpiece.

Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could buy truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even when the chance was slim
Running around
Running around
Johnny says he's willing to learn
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'd live anywhere
When he earns the time
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's
Being discovered
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around
Johnny feels he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a
Real sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around

Written by Robert Palmer in 1980. Recorded on his album "Clues.' A good cover by Brian Ferry. Robert would have been 66 this this year. RIP.
With all due respect to Robert Palmer, he should have cranked the tempo down and done it all noir, just like this
Been a fan of Brian and Roxy Music since the days of "The Strand." Thirty-five years ago Robert conceived "Johnny and Mary" during a different Zeitgeist and Brian chose to record his rendition now as a older man with a world weary sound and a mature voice. Different tempos for different folks and times.
I know what you mean, however this cover captures the desperation so perfectly, from the woman's perspective (for an older man to see it from that point of view is a triumph alone, you don't really see Johnny in the video - although the dog symbolises him). The sadness is so evocative, the tragedy so clear, especially when she hangs her head from the car at the end. The video of the original Palmer song is partly to blame, the mime act of the original was less thoughtful and lacked pathos; it was too frantic. Very surface 80s you could say, while this video is beautiful, exquisite and timeless. But then, videos have matured too. Haunting.

He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right
If it could buy truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind
More than a woman
But she made her bet
Even when the chance was slim
Running around
Running around
Johnny says he's willing to learn
When he decides he's a fool
Johnny says he'd live anywhere
When he earns the time
Mary combs her hair
Says she should be used to it
Mary always hedges her bets
She never knows what to think
She says that he still acts like he's
Being discovered
Scared that he'll be caught
Without a second thought
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around
Johnny feels he's wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a
Real sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he ain't lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it
Running around
Running around
Running around
Running around

Hello Penelope, how are you doing today?
Loving this so much in 2021. Can´t stop listening..... Perfer it to the original, has more depth and "aura".
pure class. wonderful version.
Annother Version. but......
justtttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
Can t stop listening. Bryan Ferry you are a genius!
This song is so big that there's no words to describe. In here so much better than the original. ♥
One of the rare cases...And Ferry has at least 2...This one and Jealous Guy!
This song is so well-served by an older man's voice. It really makes it work.
Bryan Ferry is the love that’s never ever ending for me..
nice, very nice*****
same. He is so gorgeous and elegant
Потрясающе!!! У меня когда очень плохо на душе, эта прекрасная музыка меня просто поднимает из руин!!! Спасибо большое.
Валюша, давай станцуем вместе
This is how you do a cover - make it your own with a great collaborator like Todd Terje. One of the best releases of the last year - full marks to the director and dp of this elegantly balanced video.
Hauntingly beautiful….can we even understand the genius of this tune….escape into the depth of Bryan Ferry…..
This song got me through COVID lockdown!
