''On the dark side is "The Cruel Ship's Captain" performed by Bryan Ferry.
"Piano is my instrument and that led me into how to do the song," Ferry says
of his blues-tinged rendition. "I thought bleak was the way, as the song
itself had such a strong resonance." His version of "Lowlands Low", featuring
Antony, hangs together remarkably well, even though the latter's voice was
overdubbed after.''

Don't know much of Antony and the Johnsons, but I remember some songs 
mentioned here a few months before...---

OK, you got me going, went back to my old hard drive: september 2005
- -how time flies- I came across:
  * Cripple And The Starfish; wonderfully overblown melancholy.
  * Hope There's Someone; its ending reminded me of te live Sunset
    during the BF As Time Goes By tour...
  * For today I am a Boy/Child  -  didn't appeal to me, too bombastic...
    Apparently it's a thin line between overdoing things just enough,
    and overdoing it just too much.


Considering the Captain Song, I was wondering, if this could be how the
new Roxy would sound: some eery sax, a raspy (old?) voice and a similar 
'empty' production like I Thought.

Tara, Anton.
