You have to understand how groundbreaking Roxy was
Yep. I saw them on thier first tour. Up to then I'd been a die hard rock music fan, both British and American. Roxy Music (and David Bowie) changed my world.
Yes, they were. In truth, there had been a lot of this psychedelic style instrumentation since The Beatles Sgt. Pepper album and bands like Syd Barrett led Pink Floyd, some Cream, The Byrds, Jefferson Airplane, Love, T. Rex, Bowie, etc.
I think the innovation by Brain Ferry and Roxy Music was the dark & emotional lyrical quality - they were more intense in that regard to most other acts.
They do deserve a deeper listen - it’s been sooo long 😂
Eno!
any radio friendly catchy pop tune can stay in your head for a couple of days then you forget about it and forget it forever. This is different and deeper the ambiguous lyrics can be interpreted several ways depending on you mental stability or instability
Did you ever pick the wrong moment to pause!
Listen all the way through again without pausing ❤
Ok, here's the thing. This song has the band and Bryan Ferry firing on all cylinders. Paul Thompson's drumming is on fire. Andy Mackay's sax work... perfection. Phil Manzanera's guitar lines have always been underrated, though not by Guitar Player magazine, and with the added treatments to it by way of Brian Eno, it was a breakaway song about a guy's love of, of all things, a blow-up sex doll. The thing you have to remember about a lot of these Rock and Post-Punk artist of the 70's and 80's were, unlike the music that came after the 80's, visual artist types, many of whom went to art school. These persons transposed their art school training and sensibilities to the audible arts. The lyrics were loftyer than those that came after. It was like ear candy, or better yet, ear puzzles. Roxy Music, The Velvet Underground, Siouxsie And The Banshees, Bauhaus, David Bowie, Brian Eno, Ultravox, and the list goes on and on.
Completely agree, the lyrics in the 70s were much more profound and treated the listener like a mature intelligent person rather tham a love sick airhead like present artists such as Ed Sheeran do now.
there is nothing like roxy music for adventure
'It sounds like it's building to some thing...' ' It's like an intensity, but it hasn't come yet, but I don't know if it will...'
Oh, it will, mate.
Thank you, it's always really appreciated when you do one of my suggestions. I have always felt that the title of this song says it all, eventhough the person lives in luxury and has a lifestyle that many perhaps would envy, the person is unhappy because they can't find anyone to share it all with. Please could you react to, 'The Thrill of it All' by Roxy Music, thank you once again.
Roxy way before their time in music and looks , Bryan Ferry handsome as an Hollywood leading man - same mystique in his day - every album they made was great - still influential to this day - everybody speaks highly of them.
Love how a lot of the Roxy arrangements seem to befuddle most reactors (esp Mother of Pearl).
I like to request Do the Strand or Remake/Remodel live on German TV show Musikladen (here on YT) to check out their stagecraft.
I think that might be a Bryan Ferry thing in part. On the earlier stuff, if he wrote the bulk of the song, then he tends to flog it to death, like say, Virginia Plain. It's not till slightly later he becomes a much more rounded songwriter.
There's also things Eno was doing for sounds and textures, like splitting Phil Manzanera's guitar signal path, and routing it through a synth. (though Eno is gone by this point)
Where Bob Dylan would tell you right between the eyes, Bryan would force you to peer into the abyss of society.
when you consider when this was written it is amazing we now live this alienation big time
Just love this song, thankyou so much for playing... so tongue in cheek... very cheeky indeed.
I would suggest Beauty Queen from the same album
"In Every Dream Home A Heartache" is about him and a sex doll. Which now days sex dolls are AI (Artificial Intelligence) and they cost over $1,000 up in the $4,000 plus range. Brian Eno is on this album and his last one to record with Roxy Music after that he quit and left the band. I saw Roxy Music around 1983 or in 1984 in my hometown of Santa Barbara, California at the Santa Barbara County Bowl. The Stranglers opened up for them. In 2014 I saw Bryan Ferry at the SBCB and in 2017. He did sing "In Every Dream Home A Heartache" in 2017. That was the last time I saw Bryan Ferry in concert, and he was about 71 at that time. He still looked good for 71, and his singing voice still sounded fantastic like if he was still in his 30's.
One of the best 'twists' in rock music. Another is Mother Of Pearl.
So many of their songs have that, and it's one of my favorite things about them.
one of my favorite bands from my youth
Nothing about the lyrics? Really? Who else writes about a inflateable doll? A perfect companion, My breath is inside you.
Oh well, I thought it was funny as could be. The freaky side of Bryon Ferry. Godda love it.
they did this at the concert last night and the band and lite show with every one in the
audience exploded
Brilliant stuff ! There's nothing quite like Bryan and the gang.So different and unique from anything else and in particular when this first came out !! For your pleasure is a masterpiece album.Buy it if you haven't got it !
This song is badass forever. GOAT.
Oh yes.. the blow up doll track! 🤣😱
creepy, disturbing and musically dark. - C
Totally unique song sounds like nothing before or since. Thanks for the review. Please review Song for Europe!
This would be a great track to do next. With some vocals in Latin and French and a mature musical band performance it’s another collage piece in their cannon.
@@stephentatterton4766I think autocorrect struck again there; 'canon'
This was played at the concert in Austin wed.with a incredible lite show
You make some marvellous choices.
I love the For Your Pleasure album, this track fits well within the album as a whole but not sure it is the one I would recommend for a reaction video.
Fantastic.
One more Roxy Music reaction, one more thumb up !!!!
The live version from the album Viva! Is superior in every way. It’s phenomenal.
Roxy were different and Bryan had a unique voice which obviously influenced David Sylvian/Japan. Snappy Glam hits they could do then tracks like this one were interesting
I wondered if you might do this, and what the reaction would be. It's an odd song in some ways.
There's a really good live version on the Viva album.
Yeah, we get a sense that seeing this song live would be fun.
@@hanierfamily you should give the Viva album a listen if you haven't already, easily one of the best live albums ever... The band are amazing live, and some songs like Dreamhome, are much more dynamic and alive sounding , this studio version is great, but the Viva version is incredible.
Like with the Velvet Underground Reed/ Cale contrast with Roxy Music you have ballad singer Bryan Ferry and avant garde musician Brian Eno giving a real edge to their songs.
Will you react to the track 'Grey Lagoons' from the same album? 🙌
Recorded half a century ago - wow!
Yeah. We say that a lot at our house lately.
The song challenges the fallacy to the idea of a "dreamhome". It's quite a difficult song to react to the public for a couple to be honest.
Bowie Roxy…..common denominator…..eno
Please try Manifesto. Apart from Bryan's genius, the bass is amazing. 1979
The song's theme is largely about psycho-sexual fetishistic release. In the first part the voice is communicating his growing sexual arousal in the act; then she blew his mind which is orgasm, which accounts for the change in music.
IIRC the fade-out is the end of side 1 of the album. Then it comes back as the first track on side 2.
I am still requesting "sympathy for the devil" offf of Bryan Ferry these foolish things
It's popular since 'Mindhunters'.
Mindhunters?
@@hanierfamily TV Series. Netflix I think. The story of the guys who came up with profiling for psychopaths. Really worth it.
A reaction to Al kooper the warning
🤣🤣
Hahahahahahahaha!!!
Bowie never wrote anything remotely comparable to this. Bowie was more influenced by Roxy than the other way.
Yeah but Bowie had Hunky Dory before Roxy Music's first LP.
@biriyaniferrari165. I was into Roxy before Bowie in 1972 but Bowie was fantastic. Listen to the "Sweet Thing" trilogy on the "Diamond Dogs" album. It's in the same mould and is great. I'm a massive Roxy fan but I have to say that Bowie had more creative staying power in my opinion and so is my fav artist. Gonna have both artists played at my funeral.
MODE FFS
The live version on "Viva Roxy Music" is better, IMHO.
David Cassidy. Donny Osmond. Showaddywaddy. Garry Glitter were riding high in the pop charts with their instantly forgettable drivel. Thats how far ahead Roxy Music were
I take it that the song refers to some sort of sex doll midway through?
Indeed. At least it's the Deluxe model....
🤣🤣🤣
lol
Yes but as a metaphor for having wealth but an empty life.

That was... interesting...
Brian Ferry has always given me the creeps. Even as a child I shuddered when I saw him.
BrYan
@@alaska_uk1303 Okay, BrYan Ferry. Like MarC Bolan.
I can see the creepy look. But what amazed me was how Ferry looked absolutely out of his face for his entire career, and nobody batted an eyelid.
@@Sandy-dd4le ??????????????
@@alaska_uk1303 The eyes, wide and not blinking for the length of a track.
Warning: This song may not be understood by Americans of the U.S. variety.
We are Canadian.😁
@@hanierfamily Well, just replace the line "Inflatable doll" with "Inflatable moose" then.
It took us a minute, but we did get the meaning.😁
@@hanierfamily To me, it seems to mean that no amount of wealth can fill the void of loneliness. But who knows.
Worst possible moment for the comment
Creepy is a good description.
Phil Manzanera on guitar ... the weak link of the band?
If Robert Fripp was in the band, they'd be near complete.
nothing to do with BOWIE
