Duran Duran - Electric Barbarella

[mocus1]

I've got to be more like Nick so girls will like me

[goodanswergoodanswer]

Nick is totally irresistible in this video!

[PsychoholicSlag83]

Who was the girl who performed the Barbarella on this video?

[goodanswergoodanswer]

@PsychoholicSlag83 American model Myka Dunkle...........

[TheCircean]

i want that to be my room

[theonlywinner]

The face close-up looks like Katy Perry here: 2:15

[theonlywinner]

It's Dr. Evil!

[mentonerodominicano]

i love this song like hell! it still sounds so up-to-date... it could've been released in 3020 and it still would've been a hit!

[Susie78390]

@mentonerodominicano

In 3020 Duran Duran will be completely forgotten :-(

Already in 2010 impossible to find them in music stores

-> I will love them forever: D

[mentonerodominicano]

@Susie78390 i was talking 'bout the song...

[MySolitude]

4:00 she hits a chair, next 4:02 there is no chair

:0

[MySolitude]

i want a barbarella <3

[Susie78390]

@MySolitude

You want a Barbarella?

Not me! ^ ^ Too much responsibility

[johngray0]

This could be academic material in a Women Studies course at Smith. Themes: Male control, Female objectification, Modern woman breaking out of domestic bonds, etc. As an older guy, I see the same themes in the older duran videos. Their videos always winked at their fans about similar sexual tensions and the irony of the idea of male control versus the reality of female control. Girls on film, rio, hungry at the wolf, etc. These guys know more about true feminism than the NOW organization.

[MademoiselleAnna]

Sex doll?

[Fritz197139]

i swear this is the future of dating ...

[MRFantastick]

Where can I buy one??

[lecomiquelin]

[sharayab]

Thanks so much for posting! One of the greatest songs AND videos of all time!

[mocus1]

do the Robot girly girl

[CHUCKLOVES1969]

back when music was listenable and meaningful...bands played honest creations and the music was the main message. today....it's all about the performance and who can out-do who on stage..and the music is secondary. there was a huge interest in what band had what ranking on the charts....today? what kid would even know WTF you were talking about if you asked them about who was on top of the billboard 100. Is there even a billboard 100 anymore?

[flamingdragon327]

@CHUCKLOVES1969 I agree, But I am a kid, I love all the Duran Duran and the old stuff better than todays music. I guess thats why they call me a fag, but I am perfectly straight. I can not stand screaming or whatever they call it.

[paladindarknite]

must be a spam bot party!

[roxette2]

[ff2paladin]

Out of curiosity guys, how much would you be willing to pay for one of these?

[ff2paladin]

HOT!!!!!! Definitely the right girl for this video. And she does a great robot.

2:15 :)

Why does the description say 2006? Wasn't this like 1997?

[FavioRiveros]

@ff2paladin

[flamingdragon327]

@ff2paladin must be they just uploaded it.

[Susie78390]

@TheLesungBatu it is her

[TheLesungBatu]

@brokeandbloging i think so

[spidersue]

that looked like a fun video to make, typical though modern technology always goes awol :-)

[theprophetstryder]

DR Evil.. selling shifty housemaid robots on the side... i see your game...

[drnrg31]

This song is pure Duran Duran. BTW, the title is from the movie Barbareli , where the band actually got thier name from.

[RiceBowlWarrior]

did he give her a dildo at 2:11???

[goodanswergoodanswer]

@RiceBowlWarrior I think it was a curling tong however I'm sure they wanted us to believe it was a dildo..........

[RiceBowlWarrior]

@goodanswergoodanswer

It sure as hell looked like one =/

[MissNovemberTuesday]

@RiceBowlWarrior Pause @ 2:12 and you can see it is a fat curling iron. he flips it open. But yeah, they sure make it look that way! ;-D

[RiceBowlWarrior]

The redhead is adorable. Thumbs up if you agree. =)

[candied]

Myka Dunkle is now officially my favorite model. She's so gorgeous in this! Haha

[MacadamiaNut76]

Duran Duran is still the shit. From Hungry Like the Wolf to Serious, Simon LeBon can still do it for me :)

[Charlotte1912]

I love Duran Duran Simon Le Bon is Sexy! x

[SirReal1958]

To Theprophetstryder and Masada672 : Most post 1990 music is bland commercialism, immature junk. But after 1990, we did get Blur, Beck, and Our Lady Peace !!!

[KariDarknessGirl1990]

I LOVE Nick Rhodes... he is precious!!! Sexy, smart... he is awesome... lol i live loving him since i was 15 years old, and now 5 yeas late, i continue love him!!... UP duran duran

[marc2789]

I love Duiran Duran since my Childhood! Masterpiece!

[WOWJBEOWULF]

Duran Duran and Electric Barbarella: Duran Duran has the same name from Doctor Duran Duran of the movie Barbarella starring Jane Fonda. This is the electric Barbarella, as you know Barbarella was sentenced to the sex machine (orgasmatron) and Barbarella wore it out, thus she lived. Jane Fonda had a wild youth, she helped define the 1960s and 1970s sexual revolution.

[delicflower]

@Verlier

omg me too, i want one in the brunette/green eyes style

[eastcoastdan]

thanks for the robot chick, Dr. Evil

[Docksifyy]

I love Nick Rhodes in this video

[WOWJBEOWULF]

Duran Duran and Electric Barbarella; I have liked it, but then I love science fiction, and the idea of a fully compatible female android fits my value system. In science fiction the famous Robert Heinlein stated the home future is naked, as technology is so advance that our moral systems changed, leading to new dangers and new beliefs, and strangeness.

[tynabop]

I'll be Simon's Polyester Princess anytime! lmao

[MultiRATON1]

THIS GIRL IS BREATHTAKING!!!

[duaneburnett]

@MultiRATON1 you know that she is just 14 in this vid . Suki tis like 15 the whole party scene is very young girls.

[HUNTER4294]

omg..!

 amazing

[goodanswergoodanswer]

@MARIANWN:- You can have Nick after I have finished with him LOL :)

[MARIANWN]

You can imagine all the things they do to that poor lusty thing they call Babarella...

[adamantane1985]

Beautiful clip!

[Docksifyy]

masada672 i totally agree with you

[1970Mariela]

Muy buen tema y super vanguardista el video.

[zzziX34]

Супер группа!!!!Ребята -молодцы!!!!

[goodanswergoodanswer]

Never mind Electric Barbarella; Electric NICK!!!!

[Phillip7TheGreat]

Electric Barbarella and... Worren Kukurullo!

[83RockaRolla]

@Phillip7TheGreat It's actually Warren Cuccurullo ;-)

[Phillip7TheGreat]

Very funny video and good music, of course!! By the way, one of the guys, kissed by Barbarella, took part in Gwen Stefany's video - "Cool"...

[SILVINAMATO]

Genial!

[jlindsey1972]

Yeah the robot chick was pretty, (too skinny for me though) but how cool was Simon's suit! I've got a Vegas trip coming up and I think I found just what I need! Look out babes, I've got Simon LeBon on my side! LOL

[cafelisto01]

How could I get one of those to do my chores? Love the video!

[talus007]

@cafelisto01

I too would love to have Ms. Myka Dunkle doing my "chores". She would find them to be a labor-of-love!!

[gastonbonnat]

I plug you in... great song

[pinkusona110363]

Brill song and vid and the beautiful model is really really good as a robot! Dressed her perfect for the period. Simon and Nick as gorgeous as ever and that new member, Warren, is pretty hot too!

[conservanazi]

@pinkusona110363 2:27

LOL my kind of robot.

[soslojoe01]

at 3:10 is Devon Aoki, she played as Suki in 2 fast 2 furious.

[ugalawdog98]

@soslojoe01 She's a pieface.

[Meag15]

awesome song and vid!

[revolverproducciones]

oh, god, wonderful song!

[antimipe]

klassz ez a szám és a klip,mindig mosolyt csal az arcomra:)szeretem

[Paint4U2]

So much underrated song!

[masada672]

Am I the only one that thinks that most if not all of the bands from the 60's-90 could wipe the floor with most of the bands nowadays?

[CoasterBoy567]

@masada672 Well nowadays it's mostly about single artists. There are still bands, but mostly solos.

[christschool]

@masada672 I would leave off the 90's and then say you are right, with a few exceptions for the 90's like Pearl Jam and Cold Play.

[MrAntares71]

@masada672 No. You`re not the only one. It is you and me...!! In Fact, I think music died in 2005. R.I.P.

[MARIANWN]

@masada672

I AGREE WITH YOU

[theprophetstryder]

@masada672 no, you are not, music these days is mostly a complete crock of shit... and im 25 =/

[yenrodtheoriginal]

@masada672 Hell Yeah man totally; its basically on repeat & I love trance etc.....though thats another disc. entirely lol - though Lady Gaga is quite inovative !!!

[TheLateBar]

@masada672 Not at all. Reason being because you're right. Today's bands just can't compete. 

[emeraldstream]

@masada672 absolutely.

[jussym09]

@masada672 nope, you are not the only one, trust me lol...that's so true!

[BadDrafter]

@masada672 no. because they didn't use vocorders back then

[marina3178]

@masada672 You're definitely not the only one.))) This is so true...

[Phillip7TheGreat]

@masada672 U're not the only one thinking this way - me to...

[symz81]

@masada672

yeah i dont know if its me getting old but this last decade doesn't have much of a feel to it. the 90s and 80s had a distinct feeling but i dunno what to make out the 2000s...it must be my age...i am approaching the big three - 0...><

[princessbeffer]

@masada672 seriously! they could wipe the floor with most the bands from 94 to present.

[dardoivan]

@masada672 I agree

[86ojuq]

@masada672

AB-SO-LU-TE-LY !!!

music died in the early 1990's.

[nesjuggalo]

@masada672 Nope.

[riskybusiness89]

I've never see this video look pretty good. It also looks like Simon, Nick and Warren are wearing 60s clothes.

[havoc8463]

their only good song is ordinary world

[stroumfakias]

Anyone who doesn't love Duran Duran are wayward.... if you resist, it's futile.

[jinkybelle]

@stroumfakias yes yes yes

[silverdream80]

the video are so ridiculus

[txt23]

cuccurullo is so gay.....

[sizedoctor]

Andy is the only guy that uses eye make up with suits besides marilynn manson. very dearing

[83RockaRolla]

@sizedoctor What are you talking about? I guess you mean Nick Rhodes and there had been many guys in suits and eye make up: Elvis Presley, Dave Davies, David Bowie, Marc Almond,... and also other members of Duran Duran used to wear suits and eye make up. Andy Taylor -who left the band long before this song- always seemed to be the one who wasn't that much into suits and make up.

[Melvins82]

This song its song, the rest of the album SUCKS!

[maraisreq]

silver tank-top boy : SO HOT

(and so gay) i mean, look at his reaction to that kiss....

[joanjett17]

haha i know right.

[JumpingMusic]

Nice Girl + Nice Music + Nice Words = Nice Song

[barbarella19844]

Amazing ^^

[BarbarellaSJSU]

I love this song, and of course that's where I got my screen name from. Love you Duran Duran!

[boruc1276]

nice video and song!

[goodanswergoodanswer]

Brilliantly catchy tune & fitting video. Must have been great fun to conceive. Nick looks adorable as ever. These guys never put a foot wrong.....

[paladindarknite]

damn ass sexi bot, this has the most hq video i seen

[durangirl007]

John Taylor wasn´t in this video,because he left the band in 1997, the year of this video...

[heksje69]

Ehm, where is John Taylor???

[boruc1276]

This was after John had left the band.

[RydiaMerchan]

Simon...you can so buy me with your credit card...<3 you!

[Granualt]

Supercool classic!!! Greetings from CHASMA!!

[mike00void]

The best DD ever, with Warren Cuccurullo on guitars.

[endocondor]

The robot girl is played by a model named Myka Dunkle.

[IVANPLLIMAPOARSBRA]

This vid have citations of Roger Vadim movie's - Barbarella - in 60's (that inspired Simon and other members of band in the name of group), and actress of 60's like JANE FONDA and BRIGITTE BARDOT in girl this clip. Beyond of house discos like STUDIO 54, in NYC (circa 70's) and the RUM RUNNER, in Birmingham/UK (circa 79~82) of property Berrow's brothers that supported the DD..

Grettings from Brazil!

[kmichelle001]

No John, no watch...It's not DD w/o John.

[superocklevel]

i called my gf of electric barbarella..lol

[pixusbubblejet]

This song was their attempt to recreate their old original 80s new wave sound found in Rio and Planet Earth...

Its good! I wish they would make more 80s sounding music!

[hididdlyho82]

I think this would be a massive hit if it came out tomorrow just like out of my mind the song they did for the saint film!

[DeafFret]

That chick dances so well, she's the highlight of the clip! Forget the band.

[LadyStardustVertigo]

Asian girl on party: is this Devon Aoki?

[odilita88]

i want a Simon-Bot for my Bday :)

[cowgurlhank]

Was that a vibrator they put in her back?! lol

[djrifa]

It was in 1997 Slarque

[TRANZEURO]

One of their coolest and best songs in my opinion, and it was made at at a time when they were considered passe, and only two original members remained. An underexposed gem,and a favorite !

[slarque]

what year was this? like it

[tramollero]

around 1997

[TaylorJonas101]

one of my favorite duran tunes excellent cd this song is on, as well

[HarajukuKhik]

lol

[FixingLunch]

I bet someone boinked her afterwards.

[sapphirerose666]

I'm amazed every time

[apadilla014]

boy when this came out I thought how damn timeless DURAAAN DUURAAN was And Is I grew up (8yrs old to 30 yrs hearing their awsomeness.

[acotw67]

apadilla014:

I've been listening to Duran Duran since 1982, and I'm not bored yet. Arcadia & Power Station still sound quite good as well. Some bands, actors, and novelists are wildly popular, then ignored no matter how good their work is.

[DrewBludd]

This is my favorite Duran song and video. I remember this playing on MTV, it made me a DD fan really. Sometimes, but not often, bands do great work after their popularity subsides.

[sparta1n117]

same for me on music video and song but my mom got me into duran duran

[SasChanSasuke]

same here :D

[Malicorian]

707 FUCKING FAVORITES? SHIT!

[ManderzandShana]

Is John Taylor even in this?

[cpc24]

John had left the band at this point.

[laurajane2300]

Mmm, fembot fetish anyone?

[cchris3232]

I imagine this one pissed girls off!!

[maraisreq]

probably not as bad as rubbing an ice cube on a nipple like they did in Girls On Film......

[marriedtosimonlebon]

Actually it didn't piss me off, cause i know Simon is all ready married and he loves yasmin, he is happy with her. But i still imagine us married lol

[alandervisevic]

i really like this video its just that i dont think its the best duran duran song but it was very creative.

[hopeandmatt]

I was in love with these guys when I was 12 I still love them now that I'm 35. I try to tell my girls they are way sexier than the Jonas Bros

[ArcticEclipse]

I hope you can convince them!

[girleslife]

I'm 11 and even I know Duran Duran members are much hotter than the jonas brothers

[joanjett17]

SAME HERE! but i'm 13
