Roxy Music ~ Avalon (HQ Audio)

Now the party's over
I'm so tired
Then I see you coming
Out of nowhere
Much communication in a motion
Without conversation or a notion
Avalon
When the samba takes you
Out of nowhere
And the background's fading
Out of focus
Yes the picture's changing
Every moment
And your destination
You don't know it
Avalon
Dancing, dancing
Dancing, dancing
When you bossanova
There's no holding
Would you have me dancing
Out of nowhere
Avalon

Avalon

When the samba takes you
Out of nowhere
And the background's fading
Out of focus
Yes, the picture's changing
Every moment
And your destination
You don't know it

Avalon

(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, dancing)

When you bossa nova
There's no holding
Would you have me dancing
Out of nowhere
Avalon (Ooh) (With Yanick Étienne doing her famous solo) 💖
Avalon

Avalon

[MrShepardDog]

Ah,  : music for a night with that special someone, where the chemical connections of both participants are burning bright; or, for driving the streets of your younger days, with everything seen and felt in a nostalgic, comforting glow; or, for a warm embrace on a high rise balcony with a view of millions of twinkling lights below and beyond; or just for a lazy cozy Sunday morning at home; for all those moments that are beautiful, majestic, romantic, exquisite.

When you Bossa Nova, there's no holding. One of the best songs of the rock era.

If the perfection exists in music is this

[Last_Vestiges]

Possibly my favorite album cover artwork of all time. This whole album is I tell you.

[mowgli]

WLKA 102.3 Canandaigua "Lake Air" (light jazz & new age) used to play this back when it was in service. Back during a much better time when none of us realized how good things were. It's where I first heard this song.

Roxy music did some great outros, this one especially.

[MichaelJones-hdgw]

This album captures time..the 80's were magic..unlike any other decade people changed constantly so did the back drop on life...and by 1989..well...all the magic was gone.

[MatthewJOronoz]

This song is one that’ll make you dance with yourself.
Of course there’s someone else in the moment, in life or another.

The Energy is like a breath.
Given.

[MysticalHydra]

This song is embedded in all of us, even if that person has never heard it before. It's just ingrained in our collective unconscious at this point.

[auroramartell]

I remember being 15 (9 years ago) and suffering from a cold. I used to play this song every day when I was ill to help me feel better. I recovered but never forgot.

[haydenwittig]

Makes a mockery of music these days, back when music took classical influences infused with poetry and took you to that special space. Music like this will never be remade or imitated.

[peterlewison]

Avolon means Heaven just like this music

[billsmith]

Great track to listen to after sparking one up!

[Cylon]

Brian Ferry and Roxy great music for two.

[mimish.]

Yannick Ettianne, such a beautiful voice. May you Rest in Peace ❤❤❤🕊🕊

[Ottotherepoman]

Avalon is looking like the pinnacle of operatic rock, I can't see this generation duplicating the musical genius of roxy music. Cage the elephant comes the closest.

[chuyhighman]

Thank You for putting this on YouTube !!! 👍

[marcopircher]
