Due to the Patrick Leonard presence, I dismissed it as his "Madonna record." I'm fine with it now. The closest thing I would call a bad album from him is still "Siren," truth be told. Fortunately, it was salvaged by the potent US single of "Love Is The Drug" b/w "Both Ends Burning" that was truly inspired material. As for the rest, it's <i>still</i> difficult to slog through for me. I've heard decent versions of "Whirlwind" on bootlegs that get my hopes up, but returning to the album cut is always a disappointment. Bear in mind that LITD was my point of entry for Ferry/RM - so its significance can't be understated!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558055401220732192.post-67719296678894358472010-07-22T03:04:30.817-04:002010-07-22T03:04:30.817-04:00I always laugh at your sexlife references ;D

You know he delivers. <br /><br />I liked "Dylanesque" for a few reasons. He wasn't being the moody, lounge lizard so much. He sounded more raw and inspired. And that album was the most uncool thing on paper, but it really worked. Ferry seems to need those artistic tangents in order to get him back on the road to his own songwriting.<br /><br />Srsly. Has he ever had a bad album. I think not!Vinny Verohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11167457760151973169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558055401220732192.post-71862639818516227102010-07-21T20:07:38.078-04:002010-07-21T20:07:38.078-04:00Re: Harem

That old-enough-to-be-their-grandfather thing is also way creepy. From an aesthetic point of view, it would have been far more <i>daring</i> to have women in their <i>50s</i> being swept away by the music of the maestro, wouldn't it? Punk kids under 25 are horny 24-7. That's <i>kid stuff.</i> Taking it further, perhaps senior citizens of all colors/predilections/genders getting it on in a steamy club to the sounds of Bryan Ferry... losing all of the burdens of age and inhibition... now that is something that would define <b>edgy</b> wouldn't it? Would anyone have the guts to do it? Hmmmm.<br /><br />As for the song. I like it! That <i>is</i> a sample from "True To Life" being used in the rhythm bed, yes? I'd <i>like</i> to hear the DJ HELL version but it just won't play for more than 3 seconds at a time on my connection so i can't compare and contrast. I agree with the "doesn't breathe" comment though. Still, I wonder if there's going to be actual single releases or just downloads. And what exclusive will the Japanese CD have? Enquiring minds want to know!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
