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
Words can be very powerful. I find them very difficult.
Bryan Ferry
I tour a lot, sometimes like a hundred shows a year.
Bryan Ferry
