"Through every step a change
You watch me walk away"

* The final words sung by Bryan Ferry in our first selection of the show For Your Pleasure by Roxy Music are "Tara, Tara". Although I have sung along for 50 years, I never knew who or what he was invoking. Tara is an important figure in Buddhism, especially revered in Tibetan Buddhism. She is known as the "mother of liberation", and represents the virtues of success in work and achievements.
