Ferry’s Roxy sensibility is masochistic against the Sadean Sixties

Evidence

But Ferry’s sensibility is definitely masochistic. (As opposed to that of the Sixties, which, as Nuttall, for one, suggests, was Sadean. Compare the Sixties-sired Lennon’s “Jealous Guy” — the Sadist apologises — to Ferry’s reading of the song — the masochist sumptuously enjoying his own pain — for a snapshot of a contrast between the two sensibilities.) — Mark Fisher (edited by Darren Ambrose), K-Punk, 871
