    8 years ago I was sitting next to my partner and we had a pregnancy test, the radio was on and the very second she turned to me and said " I'm pregnant" this song started , all the emotions I felt, elation, fear, worry, happiness and apprehension , now every time I hear it it reminds me how lucky I am to have my wonderful son and also that moment in time, still as fresh as at the moment it happened..

    Clothes by Antony Price. Credited on Roxy Music's debut album for 'clothes, make-up and hair'. Art director and stylist, he's a slightly hidden but significant part of the band's history. He also designed Duran Duran's suits worn in the iconic Rio video.

    Music is so strange. I was 10 when this and Dance Away came out and I can genuinely still feel the change in the season that year when I hear them both. A sense memory as vivid as if was still happening. The singles in 1979 were wonderful and we just expected them to come like you’d turn on a tap and there’d be water. I feel lucky to have lived through it.

      This is JUST my opinion. I must say... I don't agree with you. Because this is not Roxy Music. Those bands would never have made it without MTV. (Maybe Duran Duran would have made it) Roxy Music is not this Tripe you are watching here. Listen to the album "Siren". After that RM sold out BIG time. This is a prefabricated horrible disco re-make of a decent tune. The original version is so much better for me. czcams.com/video/6bQjkKBRyOU/video.html. I'm not trying to be rude.

      @richardanderson8696 Před měsícem

      The internet. People don't encounter new music and grow anymore, they stream the things they already know, or the things the algorithm tells them sound like what they already like. People get locked into genres more than ever. Roxy Music are a prime example of a group of artists taking on a diverse range of musical styles and blending them to make it their own. In this track alone there is disco, funk, new wave and an electro-pop sensibility, all mingling. Bowie was similar, as were others. Look at most editions of the UKs Top of The Pops TV show from 1979-1982 and you will see an incredibly diverse range of new music that was broadcast to a mass audience every week.
      There is plenty of good music being produced, but it doesn't seem as great as before because people, including artists, now tend to go down their own digital rabbit hole which limits their innovation and creativity.

    There were times when Bryan Ferry was cooler than Bowie. This was one of them.

    What a very welcomed apolitical refuge from the predominant very political and brilliantly "trying" pop music of the 1980's was Bryan Ferry's Roxy Music! Don't get me wrong, because the emerging politically aware rhythmic music of those 1980's was damned invigorating against the widely impersonal "disco music" of those troubled times. But it was so very necessary back then just to celebrate life with unbridled joy, and to a great extent, unbridled sexuality! Ever so thankfully, I was lucky enough to be working my ass off most of that time working to put myself through law school with this great release in the evenings of dancing my ass off in the best dance venues back then! How I wish that these present day generations and those to come could have this kind of what once very available release from daily induced angst!

    This tune is too brief; you'd love to be wrapped up in it for at least several more minutes. I imagine there's an extended dance mix of it out there somewhere? One of the old DJ 12" singles?
