It`s a bit about which Ferry you prefer. Is it the Ferry that reminds you about past glories, or the Ferry of today? A random fan would say the former, but a diehard would say the latter. There is no doubt that when you hear "I Put a Spell on You", you`ll think of late Roxy, and when you hear the more cabaret style songs, you`ll think of Ferry of today. Regarding my precious list, I think you`ll see my view.

I omitted to list a track from Dylanesque. That was not deliberate , so let me add “The Times they are a-changing” from this album. It’s my opinion that Ferry has covered Dylan better on his other solo works, including 2 superb tracks on Frantic.

1. These Foolish Things 2. Another Time Another (surprisingly difficult choice between four tracks but this edges it for being an original composition) 3. You Go To My Head 4. Love Me Madly Again 5. This Island Earth 6. Don't Stop the Dance (hate leaving out the title track here - both are masterpieces) 7. Day for Night 8. Rescue Me 9. The Only Face 10. I'm in the Mood for Love 11. Hiroshima 12. Gates of Eden 13. Reason or Rhyme 14. This Island Earth 15. Driving Me Wild 16. Boys & Girls
Best original track: Don't Stop the Dance Best cover: Rescue Me

I'm surprised how middle of the road my choices actually are:
These Foolish Things – Sympathy For the Devil Another Time Another Place – The ‘In’ Crowd Let’s Stick Together – Let’s Stick Together In Your Mind – Party Doll The Bride Stripped Bare – This Island Earth Boys & Girls – Slave To Love Bete Noire – New Town Taxi – Answer Me Mamouna - Chain Reaction As Time Goes By – Miss Otis Regrets Frantic – Hiroshima (tying with I Thought) Dylanesque – Make You Feel My Love (such a shame that scrumptet Adele got there at the same time!) Olympia – Tender Is The Night The Jazz Age – This Island Earth Avonmore – Lost Bitter Sweet – Zamba
Best Original – In Your Mind Best Cover – Let's Stick Together (it's just a brilliant cover) Best B-Side/Bonus Track – As The World Turns

Hipsters & Furloughed Fandangoists,
W2 is particularly impressed with both Dean and Tryptich’s submissions.
Indeed, if he wasn’t so massively impressed with his own list, he might go with Tryptich’s.
Hopefully Smudge will be along to provide forensic analysis !
Salutations et bonne anne.
Windswept
