His one big mistake was to pass on "Don't You Forget About Me" that went on to be come a massive smash for Simple Minds. He could have really clocked it with that number.
At this late stage in my life, thinking back about the 80's brings up some really great memories. Great songs, great friends, good times and nothing but blue skys ahead. Ahhhh....to turn back time.
It's rare for a band with a unique sound to have had so many big hits. I'm surprised there aren't more covers done of their songs, but I guess it's hard to improve on perfection.
I’m 90 and he still rules the best of music can offer. Been to many concerts. Hope he makes it in 2025. Went in 2023 here in L.A. We California’s love him and Roxy forever.😊
@@sajjadhusain4146 The Album is also called Avalon. I bought it after seeing a Bryan Ferry concert in 2007, so the album was already 25 years old even then.
I sailed out to Avalon on Catalina many times with my brother on his sailboat. This song brings back so many memories. I love it. My brother passed away a few years back, and I haven't made it back to Avalon, but I want to, and will play this song while I'm there. Avalon....
One of few songs that can make me stop whatever I am doing and absorb the moment, still as good today as when it came out. Roxy music and Bryan take me back to my good place,and a bit of Martha for good measure.
Mark Wales not haunting but awesome shine the light on it, beautiful one of the best's been there and done it Brian Ferry a ladies man and it just goes on and on cool
Roxy Music are one of the greatest bands in popular music history. They were so innovative, original, and experimental in their early years, and went on to become a really polished, professional, and accomplished band, with great songs and a great front-man in Bryan Ferry. True immortals.
One of the few albums I can listen to end to end and never ffwd any track... great memories of '82...life was so much better..no hassle, no money..no worries..
Although she is only lipsyncing to Yannick Etienne's voice, Martha Jane Ladly is the backup singer appearing in this video! She was the keyboardist and one of the two female vocalists named Martha in the Canadian band Martha and the Muffins. Remember Echo Beach?
I was living in Finland the mid 70’s. Access to music was limited for me. I looked forward to going to the railroad station and buying the latest New Musical Express. I remember these guys were everywhere. I was from California. Maybe 22 years old and out traveling. Years later this song comes along and many years later I learn about the song, Brian, and think life goes full circle some time. And of course it’s a beautiful song. If you’ve ever played music putting it out there like that isn’t easy. Baring your sole. Brian really sticks his neck out it seems to me. The group really. Good stuff.
Memories r all we end up with as age takes its toll! However the blonde girl in the background was from Martha and the Muffins! One of the Martha's on key boards the other Martha was vocals! Brian slick as ever!!😊
1983... surf trip to Mexico... only tape we had in the car and the radio didn't work... listened to this a hundred time over, and never got tired of it. Thank you Brian, for the great background theme to a fun trip.
Somehow did not pick up on this until '85 and played it ever since. Ferry's songs are just so good and seem completely timeless. He picks some lovely girls for his videos too. Style and beyond.
GE Smith, the house band leader for SNL gave an interview in which he recalled a story from this exact song. At the last moment before going live they could not find the percussionist. The person who plays that essential main beat that the songs opens with. Totally critical to the song! GE flagged over a friend who was a great drummer. Brian Ferry’s drummer jumped up and did the percussion part which he knew. The friend you see briefly in this video came in and did the simple drum part. Amazing performance. Incredible song.
GE interview is 6 years old but I was looking for this comment, crazy story. That percussion is essential though so I'm glad GE could think on this feet.
One of the greatest love songs from one of the greatest LPs of love songs. It brings back a lot of bittersweet memories of love and lovemaking and slow dancing. And it is sexy as all hell.
one of my favorite pop sings from one of my fasvorite pop bands. i "found" roxy music back in the 80's,and have really enjoyed my greatest hits album ever since.
A million years ago, a co-worker at Tim Macy's incredible coffee shop in Flagstaff, Arizona made me a mix tape. This was one of the many astonishing songs on the tape. Thank you, Kelly.
Saw Roxy Music in Adelaide Festival Theatre many years ago. The quality of the performance really affected me more than any other act, absolutely brilliant
I heard this lovely magic song in a disco in Oslo at my holiday, and I ask the girl I was dancing with: "What band is this?!?" She said Roxy music, and I was so supriced! I never forget it! From the beginning I just love it! And I have listen to it soo many times, its a masterpiece! For me, one of the best songs from the 80:es, and Avalon is a very good song to! 🙏 And the album...Avalon 💕 It wake up so many nice memorys...😊 If I could turn back time...😏

I am 65 years old and this song brings me back to my youth of slow dancing with a beautiful woman and feeling the rhythm of our bodies. Awesome song!
My best love slow rock! ET
I'm olso 65 and I feel the same.
Están viejos 😂😂😂
Slow dancing is a lost art.
Keep it in your pants pops!!
The gorgeous Martha Ladley on backing vocals, later of the Associates
Thanks mate! Was wondering who she was🤩😘
also, Martha and the Muffins!
La voz en el video es de la Haitiana Yanick Étienne fallecida en 2022, la rubia en el video es Martha Ladley.
Looks like The Associates drummer as well.
MILF.
Hi guys...I m from Malaysia & am 62 y.o. still into the 80s...who are here with me ?
Привет из России
Hi, I'm 56. Greetings from Lithuania.
45. I remember these colors, pink sunsets, these smells, these hopes. 80s best time of my life
Turning 62 in December. I get goosebumps
My grandma asked me to play it on my car stereo so I did lol so old I’m an 02 baby
Roxy music was 1000 years ahead of their time... Timeless, romantic, soothing, rythmic, melodious, blended, instruments....
Always love how the vocal line of their song is often sparsely in between , thus makes the instrumental passage became dominant aswell.
Amen !
Gary Numan is far ahead too
God I want them to play at my funeral the song 🎵
I think you forgot .......Sexy
This guy was living the dream, the James bond of the music world. Lovely song.
His one big mistake was to pass on "Don't You Forget About Me" that went on to be come a massive smash for Simple Minds. He could have really clocked it with that number.
I don't think Bryan is losing too much sleep over it.. He has an abundance of other hits to enjoy....and the money
He’s also responsible for influencing many others within the music industry, in a positive manner..
How you came up with that description is so perfect, and so obvious right in front of our faces. You are the first with that and you nailed it!
Every musician and singer in this song is important. It could not complete without evena dude with a wood block!! They need every thing here
40 years old and still sounds as good as ever.
He would be given a trigger warning now like Jane Austin has been for students.
65 and stil loving his music. My only regret is that I never had a partner to dance with on this music. So be it.
It was the best music ever
Every song is good und timeless
This brings nostalgia of the 1982 World Cup in Spain. This track came out in June 1982.
76 years old and still loving this classic.
At this late stage in my life, thinking back about the 80's brings up some really great memories. Great songs, great friends, good times and nothing but blue skys ahead. Ahhhh....to turn back time.
I was born in the wrong time. The 90s...
Stay Awesome my friend.
@@meganers96 the 80s were Amazing my friend it was something.
I know the 80s were just Amazing everything was changing music was the greatest music has truly lost its way
Now the party over best band
It's rare for a band with a unique sound to have had so many big hits. I'm surprised there aren't more covers done of their songs, but I guess it's hard to improve on perfection.
Check out Trevor Horn's New album 🎉😊❤
They pretty well spawned a couple of genres in the 70s and 80s.
I’m 90 and he still rules the best of music can offer. Been to many concerts. Hope he makes it in 2025. Went in 2023 here in L.A. We California’s love him and Roxy forever.😊

Got to finish my time machine and go back to the 80s. Greatest decade in the history of man. Who wants to go back with me?
T.M. Martin Me!
Is it finished yet?
wait for me T. M . Martin
I'll go in the next minute, I feel as though I'm locked into the '80s, my thinking is still there.
T.M. Martin they were the days trust me and the rest
Bryan Ferry, the epitome of suave and elegant sophistication.
did elegant means clumsy ?
Right
The only man cooler than the Fonz.

I saw Bryan Ferry live and his show was tremendous. This song is so melodic and sexy,as is the entire Avalon album.A definite masterpiece.
And all his albums... 🎉
Ну почему нельзя оставить хотя бы еще один палец вверх?! Композиция просто гениальна1
I’m 85 years old and I still like this song
The sexiest song of the 80s
Along with Robert Palmer's "I Didn't Mean To Turn You On".
@courtneysands6646 😋😘
71 yrs young and i still have my vinyl copy of this group. Quite a collection of albums for them.
Me too!
Timeless!.. On the RADIO in NZ in 2023 👍🎶🇳🇿
This is one of my favorite Roxy music hits, don't understand how anyone could not like this...
They don't understand what REAL music is.
Discover music through cuzin. Magical mystery tour to 🇪🇺 EUROPE
Thought was done 1989. 1982-3
what about "More than this" my fav one?
This one of the greatest songs My daughter Avalon was born 9 months later after the concert...coincidence or serendipity!
Wow, that was quite the night you spent with Bryan.
Awww. As a King Arthur and Roxy Music fan, I wanted to name my daughter Avalon, but my husband vetoed it. I took my cd to the hospital though.
Iconica canzone x un Iconico Brian Ferry
I sailed out to Avalon on Catalina many times with my brother on his sailboat. This song brings back so many memories. I love it. My brother passed away a few years back, and I haven't made it back to Avalon, but I want to, and will play this song while I'm there. Avalon....
We used to go to summer camp in Avalon, that's what this reminds me of, too.
One of few songs that can make me stop whatever I am doing and absorb the moment, still as good today as when it came out. Roxy music and Bryan take me back to my good place,and a bit of Martha for good measure.
thought Martha was in the clip
My friend truly indeed Roxy Music is truly Amazing.
Right On 🌴🌴
Martha added a little bit of shining to each qroup she participated.

Mark Wales not haunting but awesome shine the light on it, beautiful one of the best's been there and done it Brian Ferry a ladies man and it just goes on and on cool
Mark Wales yummy
Sheer class, could be the beginning of a Bond movie.
Me too mate!!!!!!!!!
Roxy Music also takes me back to the 80s, a deep, deep nostalgia. Feeling that anything was possible. Working hard but also partying hard.
So same🧐💁
22 when this one came out. At 64, it’s like yesterday…❤
This is just an incredible masterpiece!!!!!!! My credit is to the entire band....It is just superb and beautiful!!!!!!!
No doubt. Classic
Brian's voice has mesmerized me for 30 years. Never fails to humble me.
These were the days when music was an art.....thanks Bryan
!
That song couldn't have been made any better.

The 80s so many hits,and good singers😅
One jewel of 80' s...

The gorgeous Canadian Martha Ladly miming on the background vocal, formerly of Martha and the Muffins (Echo beach) and The Associates,
One of the greatest popsongs of all time,exellent song and super phantastic album👌
Although she is only lipsyncing to Yannick Etienne's voice, Martha Jane Ladly is the backup singer appearing in this video! She was the keyboardist and one of the two female vocalists named Martha in the Canadian band Martha and the Muffins. Remember Echo Beach?
Bradley Sullivan Brian probably jumped her as well lol
Yanick Etienne performed the vocal solo on the album.

Wouldn't you have? *I* sure would.
Hey Bradley, did you see the interview with Professor Martha Ladly in here! Brains Looks And such a voice!!!!
Bradley Sullivan Remember? Ha, one of my all time favorite songs growing up ;)
Don't forget about Martha's Donut the follow up project to MATM
Сладкоголосый, Bryan Ferry. Певица,

Je veux écouter les Beatles
Beautiful song
Sounds just as great as when I first bought the album in 1982
Same!!👍🎶
It's that song you wish would never end.
I always play 4 different mixes when I play it.
Such a feel good song
On long road trips, I could play this album on a loop and not get tired of it.
Mir geht es ebenso. Es war und ist eine wundervolle Zeit mit diesem Song. danke Roxy Musik
I bought the album 'Avalon' when it first came out and it is still near the top of my play list today. Takes me back to a nice time.
Best ever,thanks Bryan
Saw Bryan Ferry in concert last night, it was out of this world, he rocks at 72! Avalon was my favourite
Saw him in Denver 3 August 2017...opening with The Main Thing...this album will be here after even the roaches are extinct
very lovely....timeless
Avalon is a beautiful song I have ever heard. It's perfect.
King of cool and class. Brilliant musical compilation. My 80's anthem from one of the sexiest pop singers ever.
