I don't get the appeal of this song. It might grow on me if I listened to it repeatedly, but why would I do that? I'm pretty sure it's a lackluster tune with alarmingly tuneless vocals that tries very hard to sound like everything we expect from late-period Roxy and Ferry's "Slave to Love" period. Before you insist I do not understand Bryan Ferry, I bought "Do the Strand" as a 45 when it was first released, okay? So don't even think of starting that one.

Then there's the Hell version, which tries for an Avedon vibe.
