  • Miss ya Pop.

  • Great track

  • THIS IS THE REASON DURAN DURAN IS SUCCESSFUL . THE MUSIC GOES STRAIGHT TO THE SOUL

  • love this song

  • Stop talking about the Greeks (especially if you are going to be offensive) and listen to the f***ing song!!!

  • crap, changes to mono

  • The Greeks are lazy good-for-nothing scumbags that do nothing but sit around in the sun all day scratching their sweaty balls and eating moussaka. I know, I've been there. Cunts

  • Maybe the Greeks should try and pay some taxes but all the best for a speedy recovery

    

  • type in the jacka trap house!!

  • Love this ~ soooo brings back memories!!!

  • absolutely one of my favorite songs from this band....

  • este tema es genial!! ordinary world..

  • No drummer?

  • Such a fine track, touches the soul

  • Comment removed

  • I'm watching this on here because I'm afraid of emimusic!

  • Esta cacion est bien chida y la conosco ya desde tiempo pero aun asi no deja letirme.

  • One of the greatest ballads ever...

  • This song touches me and brings me such peace on the inside; I listen to it many times a day. It serves as a reminder and helps me realize that it is possible to move on and get through all of life's trials and tribulations. I lost my dad last month and while I am devastated, I am certain that he wouldn't want me spending all my time mourning his death, but rather celebrating his life; life in general; and to get on with mine. I love and miss you, Dad.

  • There is a Deep Rhythmic intensity going on here. I am drawn to it strongly as the character in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" was drawn to the Devils Tower. 4:19 steady deep harmony sticks with me and shapes the wonderful sound. Too much BS in the world when it all just comes down to a tune that should define the peace and tranquility we should all seek and share. Do good things, eat right, exercise, take your cholesterol meds and enjoy the music of LIFE in this Extraordinary World.

  • baby you rocked the sh!t out of this last night! merry christmas!!!!!!

  • This song always helps me pass the despair I'm in. I really believe there's an ordinary world... somehow I have to find.

  • Música muito boa =]

  • Duran Duran, great as usual!

  • nice song!!!!

  • Such a stunning sound, inexplicably powerful and touching.

  • one of the best songs ever. the music flows like water through your ears.

  • this one of the best songs ever

  • thanks for sharing. This song saved my life

  • Great band, great song - Simon looked HOT :)

  • Show d bola, adoro essa música. Concerteza umas das románticas mais bacanas q já ouvi. Música boa é assim faz vc levitar quando esta ouvindo.

  • I like this song because it is about me (and many other people I'm sure).....every day I crawl out of bed with the shakes and depression just trying to pass as normal or ordinary. I have lived with severe panic attacks for 45 years. It has cost me all my friends, missed opportunities, jobs and the love of my life. It is a nightmare trying to make it through ordinary world. Oh God how I wish i was "ordinary"

  • @inkey2 I lived with those days of darkness in which I tried every thing to escape. Days so dark that people around me would sense it even if I said nothing and they would walk away. I went to god and asked him for help and I thought maybe god was putting this on me, but he gave my a bible verse that I took for my own and since then I've been ok, that was 12 years ago, the verse was 2nd timothy 1V7 ampified bible, go to bible gateway.com

  • @Lazerus53 I thank you for your advice.....unfortunately it was "religion" that caused all my problems. I spent 6 very long years in The Catholic School system......humiliation, Indoctrination & physical punishments for the most minor of infractions. First graders should not be slapped and have their books thrown all over the floor by anyone let alone the nuns who are teaching you, these supposed instruments of christ were in fact instruments of child abuse

  • YOU SYMBOLIZE HOPE

  • Layer Cake ftw!

  • amazing

  • YOU SYMBOLIZE HOPE

  • @1762mp good memory. I was driving from my old girlfriend's house to a fourth of July Celebration and fireworks display, and the sun was setting, and then this song came on. I've heard this song since I was very little, but never really paid attention to it until then. This song was part of the best night I've ever had when I snuck away from home, returned to my girlfriend's, and stayed there until 5 the next morning. "Ordinary World" remained stuck in my head as I drove home racing the sunrise

  • @doctorfeelucky what a wonderful story, the feeling you have of that moment is now priceless. thanks for sharing your story it is the greatest way to say we are human and have endless feelings.

  • @1762mp thank you for comment. it is vivid in my memory i was traveling with no schedule no expectation i did not belong to any other place no one was waiting for me. i was part of that moment. i miss being lost.

  • I listened this song yesterday in the car and I say : OMG I <3 it WHAT IS THE Fucking NAME??? hahaha omg ... old memories

  • me encanta esta cancion

  • me gusta esta cancion

  • I listen this song with the group RED but i never think than Duran Duran made that song

  • Great song. One of the best after Electric Barbarella they did. 

  • A haunting and profound feeling surged through me when I first heard this a few years ago. I saw myself leaving a crumbling world that had destroyed itself and, under my own spiritual energies, journeying to the endless, star-filled expanses of the universe. Hopeful melancholy...

  • @GodConsciousness i love your infinite sense of feeling.

  • fabulos

  • wow i get it now it all makes sense!!!! Thank you roberto duran

  • @cslovesyouu Stop posting these bullshit comments asshole! God you are so stupid. You know what really makes sense? You being a motherfucking cunt that makes a lot of sense dickhead so fuck you!

  • Bit of a Drum n Bass man myself but this song is just so fucking good!

  • FORMIDABILI.....

  • i was traveling in a remote city in ecuador it was about 4:00 in the morning the bus i was in was very old . the moon was bright and the only guiding light. in the distance i could see the line of the mountains the open windows were letting in a cool. a very quite radio filled the silence. then this song came on first time i heard it did not know it was duran duran. i continued to listen as it just sank into my soul. these are the moments you want to remember and embrace when all else is gone.

  • @1762mp very eloquent. thats Y I had to hear this song

  • @Just1Mikey

    Thank you for your compliment. I'am sure you have felt something similar. It is those special moments that we can keep for our selves.

  • @1762mp you now understand the Majick or Music.,

    about 1992 it was for me

    while sitting alone in the bath tub, deep in depression, listening to the radio, after almost a 5th of vodka.

    I was staring at a razor blade, and asking myself, vertical or horizontal cut.

    yeah, i was that close ................

    then I heard this song.

    I put the razor blade down, and i never looked back.

    I found my ordinary world, and I have learned to go on, and survive.

  • @anothercarpenter

    you blow me away, and i thank the lord you are here to write to me. i am truly honored by your sharing this ordinary world with me that can be beautiful and ugly. " ther are no hopless situations, only people who have grown hopless about them".__cb. luce. i do belive some music just talks to your soul. I hope your days are always filled with love and sunshine. You are awsome, the courage to live.

  • @1762mp sooner or later, everyone finds there own rock bottom, I realized when I heard this song I was at mine. I guess, i realized if this was the bottom, and it didn't kill just falling that far, nothing could .... except me giving up.

    all that time ago, and i've been climbing up ever since.

    I found a woman who loves me,

    i got a college degree,

    I found a job i love,

    and every once in a while, i DO get to talk to my daughter.

    life has some really hard downs,

    the only failure, is staying down.

  • @anothercarpenter - best wishes dude - wherever you are, whoever you are!

  • @1762mp moments like that make music so much enyoying

  • @aysd1234 thanks for your reply. when we mark our going experiences with smells, music and places we create an album to enjoy at our old age and tell friends and all that , yes we have lived.

  • @1762mp I could visualize your tale as I read and listened. The tune reminds me of Stephanie. Where was she when I needed her most. All I wanted was her smile and maybe the customary hug that once happened each time we met. Now it's all cold and I hear nothing from her all because of a misunderstanding.  Somehow I will learn to survive and rise from the ashes like the proverbial phoenix. I shall never give up though. One day my friend will acknowledge me as the man she once cared for.

  • @1762mp ECUADOR IS THE BEST. BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY

  • One of the best songs ever! Greetings from Greece whose citizens suffer but trying for the best!

  • @vstath79 HOLD ON! peace and love from italy.

  • @vstath79 paY some tax you fuckers

  • @Dazzler59 You are answering to a ...fucker who pays his taxes! So be careful of what you say! Anyway i think that the second world war is not so far way to think of what you took from us! And remember that the greek consumers are paying for your products so much that some of these money are in your pocket now! I hope you hear the song and be calm of the rest of your miserable life!

  • @vstath79 keep fighting the good fight Greece,cheers and God bless.

  • Dobro jutro...

  • @Donloshmy

    Dobro jutro

  • 127 people didnt find the ordinary world

  • the only thing I don't like about the song is the last line of the chorus "I will learn to surive.". You cannot sing that without sounding like a faggot.

  • Peace for everyone

  • big like...

  • listen to it thru earbuds skydiving or facedown in a pool on a hot day and you'll primal scream afterwards

  • makes me cry !

  • love this song . it is on my favorites. you tube - how to laugh at racism

  • Isn't interesting [that] after so many years...as if they had all but disappeared...they come out with their best song ever?! Fantastic.

  • @sulatlalaki they never disappeared You just didn't know where to look! :)

  • Simply touching, moving, breathtaking. Melodically satisfying and emotionally gripping.

  • what is the point of uploading this crappy version ?

  • y love is musica

  • This vid isn't any better than the other one. They both suck. Someone make a meaningful video to this song, PLEASE!

  • I LIKE

  • Das letzte Drittel der Datei scheint beschädigt...

  • Immaculate. What an exquisite song. What's so beautiful about this gem is that anyone can relate to it. It's a universal theme that deals with loss, resignation, and survival. Brilliant piece. And no cover has done it justice.

  • 126 people r ordinary

  • i love .......very much

  • one of my favorites...was playing at graduation...love it class of 94' RGHS! GO RAMS!

  • one of the best they did i thinkx

  • reminds me a good times... where there are musics with feelings, with love....

  • What a song. It means a lot to me. Like tedmed99 said. It`s also helped me get through some very hard times. It still does to this day. My dad has cancer. I`ve seen him go from a big strong powerhouse of a man, to a very weak, sick man in a short time. He`s so brave. He`s a fighter and refuses to give in to the cancer.

  • LOVELOVE

  • @inkermann59 Pure

  • Great Music

  • What a great piece of music! So full of emotion, right on the money...............

  • it saved me from the brink of total chaos

  • this is the best song ever written in the history of mankind it makes me feel like im teetering on the edge of oblivion while riding a steed through the hills of avalon in the eye of a black hole .amen

  • TREMENDOUS!

  • this is about the loss of Simons friend....

  • RED did a pretty good cover of this song, too, if anyone is interested

  • I grew up listening this song on the radio

  • I'll always love you Shawn...

  • that dress is so sexy

  • a Wonderful song

  • thesaintcyr

  • Why does that lady have a lampshade for a hat?

  • @musicmanstingray1234 I'm sure, somewhere out there, in some living room, there's someone asking "why does this lamp have a hat for a lampshade?".

  • @Thompsongs Ha ha ha made me chuckel!

  • @Thompsongs Pretty clever there XD =]

  • @TheFenrir666 Thank you, thank you.

  • @Thompsongs Must say I do wonder though, with that ribbon on her dress it looks like she's going to be shipped off any second as a present, or even a package to someone =]

  • @musicmanstingray1234 I always say it isn't really a party until someone puts a lampshade on their head.

  • so true!

  • Yep, this is still the best version of this song. Even better than Red's cover.

  • Sad, sad, sad u,u

  • i don't love so much Duran Duran but this is a good song

  • Red's cover is much better.

  • No hablo ingles pero me encanta esta cancionnn

    hablo un poco de inglesss

  • world this meand my poor life and grow my new life..will

  • fucki ng skipping WTF this sucks

  • bullshit.

  • I remember the lady in this video being hauntingly hot.

    She apparently still is.

    And the song being awesome. That, too.

  • Too me Simon looks like John Lennon in a few shots.

  • One of my favorite songs from Duran Duran.

  • @ruiz2565 One of my fav songs ever, who are these 120 red thumbs and where are they at?  2,581 green thumbs can't be wrong x

  • @ruiz2565 Director you wanker, why fuck up the audio 3/4 of the way through? Think your art is smarter than common sense? Think again geez

  • @aquariussouldier Ok tough guy! :)

    Write more stuff about me being a wanker, probably it pumps your vagina and makes you feel powerful.

    With that said, can we just leave it at we both like Duran Duran! Or you are probably gonna be furious, put on a sexy dress, wear red heels and reply w/a negative comment?

  • @ruiz2565 You directed that at the wrong commenter. Read more carefully before writing hostile comments yeah?

  • @aquariussouldier Dude my apologies!

  • @ruiz2565 lol No worries bro, you must have clicked reply on the wrong comment in your haste :P I believe the one you wanted was directly above mine haha. I am humbled by your apology. God bless

  • @ruiz2565 Actually it appears I wrote both!! hahahaha I must have been very very drunk coz I don't remember. It is I who apologize to you sir :) Nice retort though

  • @ruiz2565 Well that was a Vocal Beheading '~' oh mistake no worries just glue it back on everything is ok :))) lol

  • Actually, I take that back, I just noticed @ 3:25 there are a few little 'skips'

    lol.

  • One Of The Greatest Song Ever

  • da krieg ich glatt ein steifen

  • Not very good quality sound, is it my speakers or does everyone experience difficulty. Like it is cutting out. No insult intended to anyone.

  • Gogordo09, about the sound quality - it's perfect for me, except when I have something downloading and that slows down my internet connection. Then the video loads slowly and it plays faster than it load, so it will pause and continue as it loads.

  • thank you for the advise love

  • made me cry what a tune

  • A fan of Duran since 1981, this is one of their best songs ever! They have made much better videos such as "Night Boat";1981, "The Chauffer" sorry about the spelling! lol

  • What the f... is this LOL of yours?

  • The LOL is for my inability to spell chauffer and I still can't spell it! HELP!

  • it's "chauffeur", it's French. And being unable to spell it is no reason to "LOL". Do you even know what "LOL" stands for? It means to laugh out loud. Foreigners use LOL all the time, and it's clear they have no clue what it really means.

  • Yes dear Of course I know what LOL means, and I've been a DD fan since 1981, and I have been to 12 of their concerts, met them back stage twice!! I am not a foreigner. And I don't think misspelling a word while working, voting, and chatting is that uncommon. I aced spelling tests in college so I'm not too concerned.

  • Best song ever :o)

  • One of the best songs ever!

  • This song was there when I was going through a very tough time in my life. Career change,dad died,divorce; just a great deal. It helped me look for the light at the end of the tunnel.

  • @tedmed99 amen to that. im in htat period now. along wiht significatn health issues. i may make it out, i may not. BUT it ( song) gives me a positive outlook on things :)

  • @tedmed99 I hope your life is better now. Peace to you for getting through the hard parts

  • This song is definitely a classic. Just wonder why everything is so perfectly arranged, the pretty settings, melody, lyrics, except the goose head groom... well, he's kind of cute acturally. Just, very weird to be placed with the bride.

  • Why do they put the solo after the second chorus? It should be after the third verse before the last chorus ...

  • For Holly N Texas - your soul mate, Matt

  • this song reminds me of my school biy days in japan.

  • japan ! nicee

  • wow... beautiful but haunting track... will men and women EVER get it right?!
