"One Romeo down"
"This stuff so strange and lonely"

The way he would belt the chorus in the 90's was pretty damn cool. My favourite at 2:20 here:

A hard reign...
Rumour is that Bryan Ferry's hammer addiction was "the best kept secret" in the music business. Separate topic, I know.

Did he hammer in the morning, hammer in the evening all over this land?

My first real exposure to the girls was the John Peel session including Emma, and the "Darling I love you" bit was what got me and still does.

Was ich kann und was ich könnte
The first time I heard a melodic high note on 1959
A kino runner for the DDR....especially the errrr
All of Some Kind Of Stranger
The guitar in After Hours. No, all of After Hours
Call it superstition
Most monologues, particularly Under the Gun

Depends on the moment, but lately it would be
Everything will be alright
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can't sleep
And the voices pass with time
or complete Some kind of stranger, hard to describe the feelings I have every time I hear this song
or guitar at the beginning of We are the same, Susanne

Some kind of stranger, the whole lyrics.
They describe a situation I'm currently having to be put through, and although I can't tell anyone, it feels as though the song was written for me. Just, every word tells the story as it is happening...

The way the music drops out at the end of "Teachers", and the snare hits into the "On The Wire" refrain after We teach old hearts to break.
(it works precisely because of its context in the whole song, but you know)

'Nine While Nine'! The guitar, the lyrics, the tone and the register.
I have three 'funeral songs' written in my will, 'Nine..' will be playing as I roll into the flames. I toyed with the idea of Wham!'s 'Wake Me Up Before You GoGo' but decided it's better to leave with class.

the strum and pause right before the bass kicks in at the beginning of Marian (the OGWT version).

The verse starting with "A devil in a black dress watches over.", still gets me after all this time.
Where Poison Door kicks into the chorus with "And the shadows smile".
The intro into Suzanne.

'And I'm looking for a life for me,
...and I'm looking for a life for you,
and I am talking to myself again.....'
And that keyboard notes in SKOS, like icicles falling from the sky to dig into me and make me feel i still live in heaven.
Bass line: Driven like the snow. Undoubtedly.
(Just to mention some)

Oh yes
Also:
'I don't sleep, so I don't dream, so I don't wake up frightened'. (with sudden clearer texture at On the Wire, so touching...)

The intro to Floorshow, which always makes me think of twanging rulers in RE lessons.

You do all realise that we're eventually going to mention every single moment in every single Sisters song, which will then make this thread utterly pointless.

Exactly this.
