Roxy Music - Siren

The Tune for Today is:

Roxy Music - Sentimental Fool 





Surely you cannot be leading me on? 
Well if that's so, however can I love again? 
How could I believe again? 
How can I hold on? 
Sentimental fool 
Knowing that fate is cruel, 
You ought to forget it. 
Yes, I know it's true, 
I've seen what love can do, 
But I don't regret it. 
Oh, you silly thing-- 
Don't you see what's happening? 
You're better without it. 
No, that's not the case-- 
If you were in my place, 
You never would doubt it. 
Sentimental fool 
Who broke the golden rule, 
You couldn't resist it. 
Though it's all in vain, 
I'd do it all again 
Just to relive a minute. 
A woman in love 
Can make you feel good-- 
You know what you're living for. 
She'll give you so much 
And keep you in touch 
With all that's worth living for. 
Oh once she gets in 
Through thick and through thin 
She'll show you what living's for. 
The rhythm of love 
It must go on 
Can't stop. 
The beat of your heart 
Is like a drum 
Will it stop?





Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Abandoning the intoxicating blend of art rock and glam-pop that distinguished Stranded and Country LifeRoxy Music concentrates on Bryan Ferry's suave, charming crooner persona for the elegantly modern Siren. As the disco-fied opener "Love Is the Drug" makes clear, Roxy embraces dance and unabashed pop on Siren, weaving them into their sleek, arty sound. It does come at the expense of their artier inclinations, which is part of what distinguished Roxy, but the end result is captivating. Lacking the consistently amazing songs of its predecessor, Siren has a thematic consistency that works in its favor, and helps elevate its best songs -- "Sentimental Fool," "Both Ends Burning," "Just Another High" -- as well as the album itself into the realm of classics.
