Overview:
Bête Noire (Literally 'Black Beast' in French but meaning pet peeve) is an album by British singer Bryan Ferry, released on Virgin Records in November 1987. The album peaked at no.9 in the UK and was certified Gold by the BPI.

The track "The Right Stuff" (co-written by Johnny Marr and adapted from The Smiths' instrumental B-side "Money Changes Everything") was the album's only top 40 hit in the UK, peaking at no.37. A second single, "Kiss and Tell", narrowly missed the UK top 40, but made the US top 40 and also appears in the film Bright Lights, Big City. A third single, "Limbo", peaked at no.86 in the UK.
