There's an entire thread dedicated to Roxy Music favourites in the Best Of section.

Personally, my fav of them all is nowadays More Than This.

I think its "To Turn You On", or "More Than This".

"Saigon...still in Saigon..., Been here a week now, waiting for a mission, getting softer. Every minute I stay in this room, I get weaker, and every minute Charlie squats in the bush, he gets stronger."

I always loved Love Is The Drug. The opening bit is so cool with the footsteps and the car speeding away coupled with the beginning guitar and bass notes. In fact, I think I'm gonna put it on right now - Bryan Ferry is one cool, swanky mofo with mojo [8D]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^[8D] Same Here [8D]^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

On a softer more ethereal side, I'll rate 'Take A Chance With Me' as my other RM fave.

That dreamy synth intro that segues with Pink Floydesque (DSoTM) drum tom strokes right into that melancholy guitar refrain hooks me EVERY time.

Moving @The Speed of Life

I'd have to go with Just Another High off Siren. I think both Siren and Country Life are underappreciated. I like all their stuff, but after the split and reformed, they never quite had that spark from before (Manifesto and on).

"Dance Away" or "Over You," depending on my mood.

Many good songs,but Mother of Pearl comes to mind first.

I'll take anything off the last three albums, but I play the extended mix of "The Main Thing" the most lately.

Yeah, "Over You" for me, despite all the great tracks on Avalon. The opening bassline is just too cool. And then Ferry's sorta falsetto just cuts through it such a unique way. I could easily pick "Virginia Plain" too...so essential, especially if you picture Brian Eno's knobery going on in the background.

Way too many to mention but here is my top 5

Virginia Plain
More Than This
In Every Dream Home A Heartache
She Sells
