From The Smiths B-side (Money Changes Everything), to a top 40 hit for Bryan Ferry. Johnny Marr plays on this one track & also appeared in the video & TV shows. Bête Noire is Ferry at his very best. The Bête Noire DVD is well worth a watch as well. Enjoy the full album here:[ Ссылка ] I'm not paid by YT, so please like & subscribe. Thank you. (Lyrics & a little humour & info below).

Got your money on the table and the devil in your eye
Who is that woman with the crooked smile?
You got to go with what you feel
A little loving is a dangerous thing
Black is the ocean, a burning sky

Her nature's wild
It's hard to beat the right stuff
It's mountain high, river deep
The right stuff

Got your pearls on a string and your skin's so bare
Over your shoulder there's a world out there
You got the nerve, you gonna win
Boy, you're playing with a dangerous thing

Her nature's wild
It's hard to beat the right stuff
It's mountain high, river deep
The right stuff

So it goes without saying she's the queen of the Nile
Lion woman with the crooked smile
You got the nerve, who's gonna win?
Boy, you're playing with a dangerous thing

Her nature's wild
It's hard to beat the right stuff
It's mountain high, river deep
The right stuff

Send me the woman on a bended knee
Emerald eyes in desert heat

She's mountain high, river deep
The right stuff

Right stuff (Right stuff)
Right stuff (Right stuff)
(Right stuff)

Send me the woman to fight for me
Nature's wild, hard to beat

It's mountain high, river deep
The right stuff

“Bryan Ferry was an old hero of mine, and it was great to work with him, but the end result was… he’s a bit blow waved.” ~ Johnny Marr 😄

["The Right Stuff" is a song by Bryan Ferry, the former lead vocalist for Roxy Music. It was released as the first single from his seventh solo studio album Bête Noire (1987), being Ferry's twenty-fifth single. It was the album's only Top 40 hit in the U.K., peaking at No. 37.] ~ Wiki

"Fans of The Smiths who are listening to the track for the first time will quickly recognize the song’s humble beginnings. They are in fact part of the B-Side to “Bigmouth Strikes Again”, entitled “Money Changes Everything”. The song itself was originally an instrumental guitar track written by Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr. It wasn’t until Bryan Ferry began looking for some co-writers and was immediately drawn to Johnny Marr’s playing after having heard the track and several other Smiths records. This resulted in the two setting up a collaboration where Marr played guitar in Ferry’s studio – and as Ferry had long been an idol of his, the energy between them eventually resulted in a collaboration that turned out to be greater than the sum of its parts." ~ S. Perry (Furio Magazine 2022).
