I can't drink a wine if it has an ugly label.
Bryan Ferry
Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.

Bryan Ferry
It must be really hard to be starting out in music now.
Bryan Ferry

Bryan Ferry
I did some songs for Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby. I had done a jazz album of Roxy songs, and they used bits of it in the film. It would be nice to score a movie one day.
Bryan Ferry
All those rappers, they're the only glamorous people working in music now. They dress up in these chains of gold, cars, girls and this and that, high-heeled shoes.
Bryan Ferry
But when I started writing songs, I stopped painting completely, and the only art things I do are connected to the career, like album sleeves and, to some extent, posters and things like that.
Bryan Ferry
I like to think Duke Ellington would probably embrace a fragrance as well.
