You hardcore-fans probably didn't miss this one. Still the ambience in this Roxy classic is so psychodelicate and wicked, words cannot spell out the score.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOuMfjKuQUc As a movie-head, I get pictures of Orson Welles; F for Fake, Citizen Kane, Lynche's Twin peaks and Sam Peckinpah's Straw Dogs.. Oh, and maybe Kenneth Angers Scorpio Rising..  Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourgs daughter , Charlotte Gainsbourg, just made a hell of a great record..with Beck |

Interesting. First reaction looks like a shock, but once you get into the song, it's quite fascinated. Totally different from the original version. |

The origin of this upload. is Dutch, Rotterdam. I've even seen 'Byron' 'Bryon' and 'Brion'(like Brion Gysin) another famous Beat-generetion artist, by the way. And coincidently founder of the Dream Machine.. Warning: -Can be dangerous to people with Epileptic diseases or Nervous Disorders.

Anyone put me in on that? |

Quote: I learned that "Bryan" was the Irish/Scottish way of spelling it. Anyone put me in on that? I think Bryan might just be the more modern version of Brian. "The boy's name Brian \b-rian\ is pronounced BRY-en. It is of Celtic, Irish and Gaelic origin, and the meaning of Brian is "high, noble". Could also mean "strength". Historical: Brian Boru (10th century) was a warrior who became high king of Ireland and one of its greatest national heroes. He liberated the country from the Danes in 1014. Brian has 14 variant forms: Brain, Bri, Briano, Briant, Brien, Brion, Bryan, Bryant, Bryent, Brye, Bryen, Bryent, Bryon and O'Brien."

You beat me to it Roxy. I have been studying my Irish roots lately (though I am very much a Scotsman) I intend to visit Dromoland Castle in Ireland when I am over at the Electric Picnic festival. This is the ancestral home of the O'Brien's. My father taught me about Brian Boru when I was a wee boy and have been reading a lot about him and the clan name lately. I noticed before that Bryan was a variant of the name. It turns out that the Parochial House used in 'Father Ted' is only 15 miles form Dromoland so I inted to go there too when I am there. J.O'B. |

Great information and knowledge everyone  Thanks.@Peter: As for this duet, I personally might think I would outnumber Carla's voice. She's pretty and charming, b(u)y all means, and she would be well off by making ads for Gauloise cigarettes.. *PUFF*  I like different vocals, I frankly "collect" them, and I find Ferrys voice one of the most sensous in music history. I also read latly, that Madame Sarkozy is holding a cameo-role in Woody Allens latest movie, Midnight in Paris. http://www.showbizspy.com/article/20904 ... allen.html A female French duet I find adorable and fresh, doesn't contain any other reference to Ferry, but his co-lab. with Jane Birkin, in a French show some years ago, here with the amazing Vanessa Paradis (Johnny Depp's girl-friend). Written to Jane by Serge Gainsbourgh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHJp0x0z3iU Sorry, the digression, just a sudden memory of one of my favourite cities.
