Bryan Ferry – Limbo (US 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1988

Limbo” is a song by English singer Bryan Ferry, the former lead vocalist for Roxy Music. It was released as the third and final single from his seventh album Bête Noire in 1988, and was his twenty-seventh single. The song failed to enjoy as much success as the two previous singles from the album; it peaked at No. 86 on the UK Singles Chart. It also appears in the ill-fated film Big Time, starring Paul Guilfoyle.

The song, like the other singles released from the album (“The Right Stuff” and “Kiss and Tell”), features The Smiths’ lead guitarist Johnny Marr.

The song was co-produced by Patrick Leonard, who was recognized as co-writer and producer of many of Madonna’s songs from the earlier half of her career.

The promotional video for the song was directed by style and fashion guru Michael Roberts, a longtime friend of Ferry. The models are Nathaly Coualy and Regina Monte.

Bryan Ferry – Is Your Love Strong Enough (Canada 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986

BTG week of LOVE! 

In 1985 Bryan Ferry contributed the song “Is Your Love Strong Enough” to the Ridley Scott-Tom Cruise film Legend. The song (featuring guitar work by David Gilmour) plays during the end credits of the U.S. theatrical release, and was released with the Tangerine Dream version of the soundtrack on CD (although this is out of print and rare). A promotional music video was created, integrating Ferry and Gilmour into scenes from the film; this is included as a bonus in the 2002 “Ultimate Edition” DVD release. The song was later covered by How To Destroy Angels for the soundtrack to the 2011 US version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

“Is Your Love Strong Enough” reached the 321 position on the UK singles chart.
