  • Roxy Music were an English rock band formed in 1970 by Bryan Ferry, who became the band's lead vocalist and chief songwriter, and bassist Graham Simpson. Alongside Ferry, the other longtime members were Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe) and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion), and other former members include Brian Eno (synthesizer and "treatments"), Eddie Jobson (synthesizer and violin), and John Gustafson (bass). Although the band took a break from group activities in 1976 and again in 1983, they reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and toured together intermittently between that time and their break-up in 2011. Ferry frequently enlisted members of Roxy Music as session musicians for his solo releases.

    Wish everybody would leave me alone-yeah
    They’re always calling on my telephone ☎️
    When I pick it up there’s no one there
    So I walk outside just to take the air
    Come on with me cruising down the street
    Who knows what you’ll see, who you might meet
    This brave new worlds not like yesterday
    It can take you higher than the Milky Way
    Now I’m blinded I can’t really see, yeah
    No more bright lights confusing me, no
    Don’t ask me why I’m feeling blue
    ‘Cause loving you is all I can do
    Hey good-looking boys, gather around
    The sidewalk papers gutter-press you down
    All those lies can be so unkind
    They can make you feel like you’re losing your mind
    Street Life
    Street Life
    Street Life
    What a Life
    Back to nature boy 👦 Vasser girls too
    Watch what you say, or think 🤔 or do
    Continental-style strasse girls want
    But you know exactly if it’s wrong or right
    Education is an important keys 🔑 yes 🙌
    But the good life’s never won by degrees, no
    Pointless passing through Harvard or Yale
    Only window shopping 🛍 it’s strictly no sale
    Weekend starts Friday soon after 8
    Your jet black magic helps you celebrate 🎊
    You maybe stranded if you stick around
    And that’s really something

    Always thought this song was a watershed for roxy music. Loved them up to this, didn't care much for what they did after this. I know, you're called a roxy snob if you don't like their later stuff, so i admit, I'm a roxy snob. Their early sound was just so different to anyone else. I did like more than this, but that was about it. I'm sure brian and the crew are shattered by this, 😂😂😂 I'm 61 so i do femember them in real time.

      I think it is the same with Rod Stewart and Elton John especially. Most folks don't like the later stuff, like The Stranglers and Kate Bush, I think most artists peak at some stage.

      @@ciaranward3559 I've always found him to be a bit of an awkward guitarist with a tinny sound but he suited Roxy's music. He was better on record than live, I think, and I have their first four LPs. Unfortunately I never saw RM live, they only toured Australia once, in 1975. I saw Ferry in the 80s, though, and he was great.
