Why is possibly the most cool dude on earth advertising Marks & Spencer ?

Has he lost all his marbles - so sad IMHO

Bryan Ferry has sold out, although not as if he had any credibility anyway, crooning away like a ponce:yawn: :yawn:

I really like Roxy Music when Eno was in it, can't imagine him waring woollie cardies for M&S. Eno is god!!!:cool: :smokin: :cool:

Could be the money they're paying him! He does like high maintenance laydeees:)

Some of his early lyrics were superb;

In every dream home a heartache

In every dream home a heartache
And every step I take
Takes me further from heaven
Is there a heaven?
I`d like to think so
Standards of living
They´re rising daily
But home oh sweet home
It´s only a saying
From bell push to faucet
In smart town apartment
The cottage is pretty
The main house a palace
Penthouse perfection
But what goes on
What to do there
Better pray there

Open plan living
Bungalow ranch style
All of its comforts
Seem so essential
I bought you mail order
My plain wrapper baby
Your skin is like vinyl
The perfect companion
You float in my new pool
De luxe and delightful
Inflatable doll
My role is to serve you
Disposable darling
Can´t throw you away now
Immortal and life size
My breath is inside you
I´ll dress you up daily
And keep you till death sighs
Inflatable doll
Lover ungrateful
I blew up your body
But you blew my mind

Oh Those Heartaches
Dreamhome Heartaches

Almost as bad as ultra cool Martin Kemp advertising sofas.

I met Bryan Ferry at a Bob Dylan gig in Brixton a year or so back. He was there with a large group of young people I took to be his children. Largely because they kep calling him 'Dad'. He wasn't wearing leather trousers :down:

Hang on, He might not even have a say in the matter, read somewhere that some copyrights can expire after 25 years then the music can be used for anything, I might be wrong but it would answer a lot

Bryan used to live in Fittleworth - not sure if he still does.

His son, Otis (obviously concieved in an elevator) lives up my way (Shropshire) and is a big pro-hunting campaigner
