  • that was a great song and for him to have delicate it to marvin gaye the day after his passing was special. this goup in it's early years was passed off as just pretty boys in a band,but these guys was and still is outstanding musicians and stage performancers.

  • ONE OF THEIR BEST IMO!!!

  • extraordinary

  • Great song......is a shame that the video and the song are not the same

  • Nine people didn't save a prayer...

  • Great song to dedicate to Marvin Gaye. The musicality and voice of the song was what Marvin was about. Well done Simon!

  • @keepthefaith72 yes, of course! They finally decided to have a DVD included in the special edition from Seven and the Ragged Tiger CD -2CDs plus As the lights go down DVD- I bought it a couple of months ago..it's awesome..especially cause I've waited for 20 years to have it and watch it over and over again! We share the same memories... You can purchase it on Amazon

  • yesss!!!

  • ENGLISH BOYS, SUCHAGAS.

  • My #1 in a live version

  • Love this song and simon lebon! :)

  • @pfiscool yes!!! at my opinion that part of the song is one of the highest point of the whole duran career :-)

  • I was at the 1984 show in Vancouver. I still have the ticket stub. It was like a party, the girls were acting wild. It was a great concert experience and I've seen a few, that one was magic. - the drinking and smoking before the show didn't hurt.

  • my all time fav

  • Lighters at a concert, cool!!

    Cellphones at a concert, (...) :(

  • @marcofct Those were the days I do remember. Cell phone and iPod lights just don't have the same affect! I miss the 80's ;-(

  • quiero ser gay por el

  • Simon es dios!

  • One of the most unique sounding ballads ever, I love it!..... I LOVE IT!

  • if every band has ONE fantastic song in their repertoire then this is theirs

  • How much lighter fluid was used in the making of this video?

  • @anvilofcrom it does make me wonder, how many 'oww shit my finger!'s must there have been?

  • Great performance! Simon looks great, too! He reminds me a bit of the actor James Spader, who is also very attractive!

  • Although this is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard since my teens...I now wonder about meaning of the lyrics. Since I am very conservative. now .I wonder ..It sounds beautiful ,but.."some people call it a one night stand but we can call it paradise? "Then what is the meaning of the morning after? After what?..BTW I may have actually been @ this concert! My favorite band in early teens.Hmm serious question not to fight with any one.

  • Duran Duran sempre será este icone imortal da música pop!!!

  • Always like DD, but particullarly enjoy his teenage voice here.

  • I first heard this song the day before my grandfather died .. such a good song, but now I associate it with this sad event. What a song to be remembered by, though.

  • Is there anyone of you who knows in which part of London does Simon live?

  • i like this version better than the recorded one. Using acoustic guitars in some portions of the song instead of sythesizers really gave it the magic touch

  • me to lost my dad last year

  • i would like to dedicate this song to my dad to thepaddywagonishere as i lost my Dad last year, and this is one of my favorites. I love you Dad, and miss you more each day x

  • This particular version always seems to be special r.i.p marvin and long live DD

  • boa musica duran duran sempre será este icone!!!

  • uhhhhhhh

  • I keep on listen this song during my morning rush in cityland in the Philippines back in the mid 80's what classic

  • Great song and one of my favorites presentations of Duran Duran and any other band ever released.

  • I didn't know that Simon plays the guitar^^

  • gosh, i just went throgh puberty again...i love john taylor!

  • Sun of Summer (brazilian soap opera) soundtrack

    Trilha sonora da novela Sol de Verão

  • I dedicate this song to my Dad who died on this day 14 yrs ago.

  • @ive just read what you wrote and im sorrythepaddywagonishere

  • @thepaddywagonishere RIP to your dad

  • God bless him.

  • I was living in Japan in 1984 as a dependent my dad was a marine at Iwakuni.. I was laying on the hood of my Fairlady Z, the air was warm, it was night and the moon reflected off the water at the lake and this song was in the deck... it's not just a great song it's like reliving that moment every time I hear it...

  • If I had a top 10 list of my favourite songs of all time this would be in way after the number 10 spot .

    This song is absolutley beautiful. I love the idea of using a pitch bender for a flute effect and a sequenced square ocilator running through the whole song. But what I love best of this song is the lyrics and how much heart went into them. I was 6 years old when I first heard it.

    So thank you Duran Duran for writing such a beautiful song and making it my favourite of all your works.

  • always great!!

  • great music ..relaxing

  • 蓄積された知らない想い。 無名の三角頂を踏んで、不意に発掘した。

    酸素不足のA級凍土。。 その体感気温マイナス20度に、俺は、

    今、震えています。身も心も。

  • 足の指がむずむずするような感動。

    肩の後方が爆裂するような刺激。

    視野が1センチに狭窄するような、風圧。。 こりゃ、たまらん。日本語で行くぞ!!! 翻訳しとくれーー知りたけりゃ!

  • This is a classic track, still sounds as fresh as when i first heard it back in the eighties, todays music is being damaged by the likes of simon 'i love exploiting half wits who cant sing 'cowell and his band of sheep-long live the eighties.

  • Beautiful !!

  • Sun of Summer (brazilian novela) soundtrack

    Trilha sonora da novela Sol de Verão

  • Wow, to go back to this time in life, to this very concert in fact...my VHS copy is wore out but the memories never fade. Thank you DD for being such an integral part of my adolescence..had it not been for y'all, I probably would've lost my virginity sooner... (I was savin myself to be Mrs. Nick Rhodes) :)

  • duran duran at their best

  • thank you ----- Sound very good !!! Super

    Incredibile anno 1984 !!!ciao italy

  • Missing them x

  • 25 years ago...wow....great song.

  • wow im 11 years old and i am a HUGE fan of DURAN DURAN

  • this song will be play on my funeral..its my personal choice....

  • JUST GREAT!

  • I have this scene on DVD.  I had a huge crush for guitarist John Taylor. He is still sexy even today:) I think i have every album of Duran Duran there is!

  • you mean base player?john taylor is the basist and andy taylor the guitar player

  • Yeah it's kind of hard to believe that next year he and Roger will be 50. :)

    But my favourite will always be Simon LeBon. Sorry but I've had a crush on Simon since I was 10. :)

  • I MISS THE EIGHTIES!!!!!

  • LONG LIVE THE FAB 5!!!

  • I sure miss the 80's those were the days.

  • OMG i love this muthafukin song!!! XD ¬¬ XD

  • simon´s voice is probably the best on this concert he really sounds perfect

    love this lyrics!! & love simon!!!

  • Im a sting ,police ,pink floyd ,Doors fan ,and now duran duran and this song is in the top ten of all time in my list.

  • xclnt

  • I LOVE THIS SONG.:)

  • Back when music was great.

    These days you can't find a single musician with this kind of talent.

  • true

  • depeche mode forever......

  • depeche mode sucks ass hwne compared to duran duran

  • I  love this song so much!!! I still hope they come back to Mexico soon. Hey boys! you have a lot of people who love you here. Amazing that it's been 25 years since this was on the radio and we had REAL music and REAL artists.

  • Funny you would define Duran Duran as REAL music and REAL artists. They are many who then and now would disagree with that assessment.

  • Very beautiful song and beautiful of them to dedicate song to Marvin Gaye.

  • very beautiful, a very memorable song

  • great song..this song will be play on my funeral....

  • love duran duran. saw them last year and they are still awesome live!

  • I totally hated DD. Everything about the 80s I hated...but this song is brilliant

  • You don't hear any teen idol songs sounding like this nowadays.

  • No you don't. Most of the "teen idols" are so manipulated these days.

  • "Most of the 'teen idol' are so manipulated these days" -- and this would be different from when exactly? Then again, at the grand old age of 33, you can shower your wisdom on "the kids."

  • Most of these teen idols nowadays who try to play instruments are manipulated by the record companies and are told which way to pee.

    Duran Duran were never manipulated by the record companies.

    The Jonas Brothers and other bands that are the result of Disney Brats with TV shows aren't even in the same ball park as Duran Duran is.

    Duran Duran wrote and produced their own music. How many of these "teen idols" now can say that they write and produce their own music? Huh! Not many of them can.

  • I'm glad that Duran Duran has you to defend their honor, Celeste, and that you're keeping your ears attuned to today's "fresh faces."

    My point really was that "teen idols" have long been a manipulated product, long before today's generation of New Kids.

  • Well, nobody said that it was easy to defend DD's honor! I'm glad it's me defending their honor instead of someone who doesn't know anything about them. ;)

  • The problem is music today is all manufactured. Computer technology can clean up anyone's voice into something pleasant. Then along with TV shows, websites, and mass marketing of merchandise they turn a person into a cash cow and nothing more.

    True talent and innovation is gone in favor of image and mass appeal.

  • I 100% agree with you!

  • @LukeL007 WELL SAID

  • i'm only 27 but this song reminds me of being a child. also don't you think U2 ripped off the sequencer riff in their song discotheque.

  • oakland coliseum '84. great live performance

  • hey icem556, can you believe this was made 25 years ago? 25 years go and I still think this is very very good!

  • Hey I went to that concert!

  • April 2nd 1984

  • ............

  • son memorables lo mejor de los 80's tb creci con ellas

  • This live performance is epic. It pretty much defines an era in the early 80's.

  • it prove that the eighties were still the best, certainly 1980-1985. I think often about it, i grew up in this period, good memories

  • Sheesh ... keep 'em coming DD.

  • Touching Simon : )

  • Great voice Simon le Bon. I´m fan since 1984. 14 years old in 1984....!!

  • this was exactly 18 days before I was born!! what I wouldn't give to have been old enough to be there when they were like this!!!

  • Great Song, Great Band, Great Performance!

  • what I would do to have been there then. I was -1 month old :-(

  • Your comment was so cute, I just had to write you to say thanks for the chuckle of you being one-month old. Too cute . . .

    Love and Peace Forever.

    TeYoJe

  • I had a wonderful afair with a beautiful girl named amanda who came and stayed with me for 4 days in 1998. It was one of the most special times in my life and this song is centered around that amazing experience which sadly was the last time i spent time with her. My eyes still well up with tears when i listen to this. Thats life right?
