I don't know that the song paints its subject, whether it's Eno or not, as a "womanizing drug addict." One might hear it as a rather jealous commentary on the guy who got all the girls and had the best drugs (and the best experiences with drugs too, perhaps). I know we all have a tendency to canonize Mr. Ferry, and I will not deny that he is a handsome man, but given the choice between an insecure, shy, moody handsome man, and a confident, out-going, sexually aggressive man with a shall we say rather strong sense of curiosity--not to mention some fabulous clothes--it's not unlikely at all that Ferry was jealous of Eno's romantic conquests (or more likely, submissions). > Given that BF and Eno are freinds again, and working together > occassionally, wouldn't it have been extremely rude of Bryan to play > "Cassanova" on the ATGB tour, if it really were about Eno? Why would it have been rude? Eno's written (and denied that he did) his own song about Ferry, so they're even. Considering they've worked together without fisticuffs since then, one would have to think that neither one of them is particularly concerned about the issue.

I have to agree.....there is NO way Casanova is about Eno...think about it! If Ferry were going to write a song about Eno it would most definitely be called anything BUT Casanova and I doubt that the other band members, who were still contributing to solo Eno`s works, would have taken part of a derogatory song about a close friend....unless of course Ferry was being facetious and the whole thing was a big inside joke.

He's heard stories about the band. He's friends with a band who opened for The Strokes at a show. His friends were sweaty and tired from their performance. Before they could really relax or freshen up in the dressing room, they were booted out because according to the manager, The Strokes had to have their pep talk. A friend's friend was in the audience and was approached by a Strokes band member who wanted to buy her a beer. He said the crowd was lame. She said the crowd enjoyed it. He asked what she thought of the band. She said they were great. He replied, no, we're f***ing awesome. My bf knows another band who played with The Strokes before they became more well-known. A band member told one of The Strokes, your music is fantastic. The response: I know. My bf said that despite the attitude, their music is indeed great and you could almost forget about the attitude. I guess I have to go record shopping in a day or two. Must pick up The Strokes album, Sigur Ros, the New Order single (even though a friend said it sounded like New Order by numbers), maybe finally get Siouxsie and the Banshees' Twice Upon A Time.....
