.bryanferry on roxymusic's most poetic song, most atmospheric album, and his most endearing Brian Eno memory. devonsaysrelax reports
“It’s strange how you develop an aesthetic that you like. It’s trial and error of finding things that you find appealing.” Photo-Illustration: Vulture; Photo by Michael Putland/Getty Images The opening line of Roxy Music’s “Do the Strand” — saxophone blasting, synthesizer twisting — flies off the hinges with:Yes, the lyrics insist that it’s a danceable solution to teenage revolution.
Best song “Mother of Pearl” always comes up as a favorite for me, because it’s very wordy and I feel that it has very interesting lyrics. It’s emotional, and yet it jumps around from one structure to another, which I like. It was on the third album, Stranded, and I felt I was on a bit of a roll with my writing at that point. Yeah, it’s the only song I didn’t write on the keyboard. I took a bass guitar away with me for a couple of weeks to do some writing.
Most poetic song “More Than This.” It uses very few words, but it seems to get them in the right order. It’s introspective. It’s great when that type of emotion strikes a chord with people. Some of the other songs that I’ve done with the band and on my solo records have been a bit more obscure, but “More Than This” really appealed to people. The combination of when you get the tune and the lyrics that work together, it’s a great thing. It touches people.
I’ve never heard back from Bob Dylan. I don’t know how he feels about the covers. He might like some of them, I don’t know. They’re all such great songs and such great lyrics. As a singer, you always want to sing great words. Such beautiful imagery and so on. Essentially, I’ve enjoyed doing covers of other people’s stuff over the years as a way of getting away from my own writing — extending the repertoire in different ways. I’ve found it quite interesting for me to do that.
Most atmospheric album Avalon. That whole record had a very nice mood to it. It has a very complete mood that people seem to like.
