With the talented influencial Eddie Jobson. Probably Roxy Music's most haunting spiritual song. You can easily lose yourself in this and a spliff. I did in 74! 😋
I remember buying this album back in 74 and it still sounds as great as when i first listened to it. Psalm is brilliant and so is this live version. Always loved Roxy, they were so unique... Never to be repeated.
This whole era of Roxy was such a defining period in my life....I wish I could put it into words but whenever i hear this album it transports me back into that time like it was yesterday. Does anyone else feel the same?
This one took a long time to grow on me, I had the album when it first came out but did not care for this song back then. I tended to like their fast paced songs only back then. This is now one of my favorites of theirs. My taste in music has matured as I've gotten older.
Adorably Beautiful! I love you Roxy Music and all the good you represent. "A good man, out of the good treasure of his heart, brings forth good... for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks. Jesus Christ 💗
Oh my goodness...so well said...and the congregation says AMEN and AMEN. Roxy is so cool. If you look at the ' More than this ' and the large cross in the video...sure seems like Brian is a believer. Glory to you Lord Jesus Christ.
On all the first 4 albums together there are not more than 2, 3 not so good pieces. They are all so good that it is hard to say which is the best. But there are some songs that stick out far above, and If There is Something is one of them. The emotional way he sung at this time was utter brilliance. But I love also the bass and the drums. Gorgeous.
Full Lyrics: Try on your love Like a new dress The fit and the cut Your friends to impress Try on your smile, Square on your face Showing affection Should be no disgrace Try out your God Hope He will send Kindness from strangers On whom you depend Try on His coat A mantle most fine Myriad colors His harmony-thine Believe in me Once seemed a good line Now belief in Jesus Is faith more sublime Head in the clouds But I can't see the Lord Short of perfection I'll try to be good I'll stand at His gate I'll wait for His sign Then I'll walk in His garden When it's my time Drink from His cup Hush now don't you cry His quiet waters Will never, never run dry Nearing death's vale He's here by my side He leads me to paradise A mountain so high Don't be afraid Just treasure His word Singing His praises I know that I'll be heard He's gonna take you by the hand He's gonna make you feel so good Open up your eyes And then you'll see all that you should Forget all your troubles You will feel no pain He's all that you need He's your everything When I'm feeling all at sea Deliverance is that distant shore I will not be worried Someday His house will be my home For ever more
Beautiful....I would be highly honored if Mr ferry would sing some of my songs when I meet him in heaven or perhaps he could give me some singing lessons so I can do it myself
Crazy to think. I’m 32 discovers it one night when I was 20. I can never articulate how much it means to me, so I won’t try. Here’s to 50 years more of people being able to discover and find themselves in this great art.
It's extraordinary music and I had the great pleasure of watching RM live back in the 70s in Liverpool, Manchester & London; priceless memories; takes me right back when we were young!
Psalm is on my funeral party play list. If I have to say so myself it's a damn good list, it's just a pity I won't be there to hear it!!! When it's my time Drink from His cup Hush now don't you cry His quiet waters Will never, never run dry.....
This is the first time I've heard/seen this, as I only got into music/hi-fi perhaps 5 years later & am now hungry to fill the void of what I'd previously been ignorant of. Bryan is my all-time favourite artist. He exudes class and is uniquely talented/creative & for years, has respected/enjoyed his fellow musicians by letting them take centre stage to showcase their amazing talents. 👍❤
All of those years ago putting on this album for the first time and I hear this. It's been a quiet gulity pleasure ( again, over the years ) of trying to assess what Bryan was truly reaching for in this song, after all This is Bryan Ferry. Now, please don't be offended, I have long ago left as a beliver to, but this song still moves me. Viva La Roxy!!
I saw them at wembly in the 70,s In a bad car accident taking my kids to schoolb and to post my letter for my tickets .in shock apprantly the ambulance guy said i waas askung about my letter to post ,this guy also asked if he could check.up.on me when out of hoslital .after mnth later and hime he visited ,asked for a date ,couldnt as married did get wembly wss amazing had every Roxy music album
interesting. I was listening to a playlist of The Tubes band of the mid 1970s to mid 1980. They and their frontman Fee Waybill were humorous, satirical, superb musically . fell asleep for a few hours and I wake up and Im here at this video . dee Lawd works in strange ways. " praise dee Lawd, good gawd, i wanna testify , somebody help me now ! can i getta witness ! "- some things a preacher said when i went with my african american friend to a church service (baptist maybe ? can't remember) when i was a kid. The piano player and the choir were great ! The preacher got all sweated, walkin and jumpin up & down, and started yelling the previously mentioned quotes herein.
Andy MacKay did improve over the years. He’s actually a great musician. This performance might not be the best example. Maybe the mix was too much on the sax. But what a great moment captured.
This is decidedly better than the album version. A bit more uptempo which really makes a difference. Has a quite a bit more funk and shake and fun to it.
For every time I listen to Psalm, I discover more and more- First time I thought Bryan was mocking God, but he is not. He is questening (like I do sometimes)
I had earned some big money in the summer of 75 and rewarded myself by buying a bigassed stereo. The salesman used Stranded as the demo for showing what the unit could do. I was hooked. I had no idea who Roxy Music was but I soon found out. Of course, it was the first LP I bought to go with my purchase...
Better theology than alot of sermons I've heard....a Masterpiece... but It's Roxy Music... what do you expect?
Yea , Man ! And thank you for knowing the difference between Than and Then.
@@lornebailey1568 Well, back in 1974, (I was in second grade!) teachers taught English better THEN, ...THAN, they do now. ....THEY'RE seemingly less educated now than THEIR predecessors....☮👍
Bryan Ferry's voice still melts me! Even after all these years. He could be singing a grocery list & I'd be reduced to a puddle. Yeah! 😍😻
Same
And me. I melted in 1972- never managed to recover.. 😉😉❤️❤️🥂🥂🥂🥂
yes, he turns me into a warm little puddle of amour..
Bryan Ferry is like a tall glass of ice water in a drought!
😂 ... I know what you mean, it has the same effect on me !!!
You can just hear the gospel church choir singing this on a hot sultry Mississippi summer Sunday morning.
Impossible to imagine anyone coming up with something as bizarrely brilliant and original as this today.
Sure,,,,swiftly taylor
Noone!!!
You are right. The early Roxy were miraculous.
😂@@dennispuleo9575
My Favourite band forever and ever 👍 Roxy Music = ❤👍
same for me
@@carolinagjeltema9431 Ok I agree with you 👍❤
Me too !!! RM give our positive life, when we're sad, listen to Psalm..... Brian Ferry.... heavenly !!!
@@AndreVermaat 👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Saw them in Düsseldorf 1980. One of the great bands. Love this song
Oh my God what a performance. One of their best songs, very underrated
There is so much rubbish written about artists and records being underrated. Who, listening to this,has underrated it?
@@johnenglish929 answering your question: the public, obviously. songs' destiny is usually defined by so many factors of the industry. contemporaries often fail to recognise a great song. i would give two examples that i like from bowies catalogue: man who sold the world and moonage daydream. the former was an obscure forgotten number elevated by cobains mtv unplugged performance and is now considered one of bowies finest songs. the latter was initially considered just one the ziggys fine louder rockers, never was released as a single, but 50 years after release, being vastly covered, appearing in numerous soundtracks, it has become the second most popular song on the album after starman.
i think that psalm is incredible and deserves more recognition. hopefully this will happen as it did with mother of pearl. but who knows.
take care! cheers from Russia!
in my opinion it never was underrated - the first three albums of RM were amazing ...
@@MrSebboxxx I agree - only I would have said the first five!
I love Psalm! So so cool and the tambourine! There never will be a group like roxy again!
Exactly PSALM
Agree, and tambourine just zen moment, totally turns the brain❤🎉
Absolutely Brilliant. This coming from Me .. an atheist. There's hope they say. This could be my new favourite from him, after Running Wild
@@Yuri-iz3cd Out of nowhere.
this song is a real wonder ....
With the talented influencial Eddie Jobson. Probably Roxy Music's most haunting spiritual song. You can easily lose yourself in this and a spliff. I did in 74! 😋
First listened to this 50 yrs ago and it still gives me the shivers I was 20 then 70 now and still the best first 5 albums you will ever hear !
Completely out of this world yet still there in your soul body and mind. Sheer genius
Yes, beyond and also right at the centre.
Für mich der beste und schönste Musiker. Er hat mich mit seiner Stimme und seiner Ausstrahlung und mit seinen Texten durch mein Leben begleitet. ❤
I remember buying this album back in 74 and it still sounds as great as when i first listened to it. Psalm is brilliant and so is this live version. Always loved Roxy, they were so unique... Never to be repeated.
Spiritual jam. George Harrison would approve. Forever more.

Yo....recien la escucho X primera vez y me encanto...!!!! Tenía 29 años en 1974...!!! Como la foto...!! 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😁🎼🎶🎵🎶🎼🎼🎶🎶🎵🎵🎸🎤🅰🅱:-)
'Stranded' is a total masterpiece.
The cover in particular . I still have my copy from 73 and hoping to get Marilyn to sign it soon all these years later
Slick as oil, unique as a diamond.
Thank you Roxy Music for your brilliance ❤.

pure, raw and a great track. Never gets the admiration it deserves, emotinal and spiritual . Viva Roxy
I am just amazed at the talent of this band. I love rediscovering them every now and then.

Full Lyrics:
Try on your love
Like a new dress
The fit and the cut
Your friends to impress
Try on your smile,
Square on your face
Showing affection
Should be no disgrace
Try out your God
Hope He will send
Kindness from strangers
On whom you depend
Try on His coat
A mantle most fine
Myriad colors
His harmony-thine
Believe in me
Once seemed a good line
Now belief in Jesus
Is faith more sublime
Head in the clouds
But I can't see the Lord
Short of perfection
I'll try to be good
I'll stand at His gate
I'll wait for His sign
Then I'll walk in His garden
When it's my time
Drink from His cup
Hush now don't you cry
His quiet waters
Will never, never run dry
Nearing death's vale
He's here by my side
He leads me to paradise
A mountain so high
Don't be afraid
Just treasure His word
Singing His praises
I know that I'll be heard
He's gonna take you by the hand
He's gonna make you feel so good
Open up your eyes
And then you'll see all that you should
Forget all your troubles
You will feel no pain
He's all that you need
He's your everything
When I'm feeling all at sea
Deliverance is that distant shore
I will not be worried
Someday His house will be my home
For ever more
Thanx for words! First heard in 1975, later got that this is essential song in album
Thank you sincerely. 😊
EXCELLENT!!❤
Beautiful....I would be highly honored if Mr ferry would sing some of my songs when I meet him in heaven or perhaps he could give me some singing lessons so I can do it myself
I heard the LP so often that I know every single word ...
THAT Song is as Old as Me..50 yrs ago..😒😒💜💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Love the bit at 6:20, when someone throws him a tambourine!
It's extraordinary music and I had the great pleasure of watching RM live back in the 70s in Liverpool, Manchester & London; priceless memories; takes me right back when we were young!
I heard Kings Hall was a great venue at the time.
Psalm, Just Like You and Mother of Pearl are my favourite tracks from Stranded. Pure perfection.
I rest in this song. Its where I find the most comfort. This live moment it’s everything
gods bless roxy music !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is FOREVER my best music, everydays i listen to Roxy Music and never i get boring. The most beautiful song with Psalm !! I Love them.
Brilliant album......but all of them are. I'm trying on my smile now watching this gorgeous man....😉😉❤️❤️🥂🥂🥂
A moment of genius….. .
Psalm is on my funeral party play list.
If I have to say so myself it's a damn good list, it's just a pity I won't be there to hear it!!!
When it's my time
Drink from His cup
Hush now don't you cry
His quiet waters
Will never, never run dry.....
It's on mine as well. I want it played at my funeral along with Triptych.
@@davidg.808 Great choice David G.
Country life, was a work of art!!!
You know what song I want played at my funeral? All of 'em!
the lyrics are amazing ...
Me too
Instructions unclear:did the strandski, now I'm hereski
Not religious, but I LOVE this song,bought all the albums at the time,songs are AMAZING.
Thanks Brian.
ALL HAIL BRYAN FERRY AND ROXY MUSIC 💜🤘🏿
They had some balls, nothing like this was being played, Berlin meets Soho soundish. It worked so well!
Along with Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" one of the most spiritual songs in the history of pop music! ❤👍
A great live version, Amen.
The creme de la creme of art rock...
The band, the myth, the legend
Saw them at the Rainbow Theatre in London 1974, just before Eno left…stunning and unique performance ✨
I was there too awesome I went the whole 3 nights or so
Ich war damals 12 Jahre alt und schon in Roxy Music verliebt! Was für ein geiler Song!
Never, ever heard this one
Secret to his long life and healthy career?
Reminds me of my mother. Bless her 🙏.
🎶Someday His House will be my Home…Forever, Forever More!🎶
OMG !
I never have commented so early on such a great video. This is amazing! I mean the video, not my posting rank.
Magnificent!
