  • Pure beauty, absolutely beautiful!

  • we are forever it is in our hands

  • This particular song together with 'A Matter Of Fact' are the most beautiful unreleased songs of DD I know. I must have listen to it a thousand times for the last few days now. If anyone know other beautiful unreleased songs of DD please let me know! I've ordered the CD of the 'Astronaut Sessions' on Ebay yesterday. If anyone knows where I can get 'A Matter Of Fact' on CD or MP3, please also let me know!! Thank you in advance!!!

  • Hey, BossCityBaller, if you think Duran Duran is such a shitty band why the fuck are you watching You Tube video's of them? Idiot! Plain and simple!!!

  • @tripp262000 lmao

  • Wow--pretty song--when was it done?? First time I ever heard it and I've been a fan for a long time---thanks to all of you who post music I wish I could get my hands on! :)

  • @BossCityBaller shakes head not nice

  • @TheJackie212 yep this song is beautiful:)

  • Going to see two shows of theirs next month. Would love nothing more than to hear this gem. Oh, and Beautiful Colors would be nice. And WHY in the hell don't they release these little-known tracks? Afraid of success? Come on, boys! AYNIN is fantastic. Do a quick follow-up with all your unreleased cuts.

  • @ttmuma Straight up!!! :D Someone must be going a little daft!! Ahahahaha...Too many great songs are being held back when they are soooo amazing! I'm seeing them in concert in october; DD forever!!!! :)

  • örökké dd!

  • I did not know this song. Thank you for uploading it: it is great.

  • it bothers me that they did not put this on RCM

  • Wow---this is a nice song! First time I am hearing it---thanks for posting!

  • tears rolling.... great song..!!!!

  • very nice, may I? islandtech(at)planetmail(dot)c­om nice track

  • I am so hurt and upset yet again sorry we never worked hunni carnt delete my post so this is the next best thing good bye my love mr graham will miss you darling xx

  • from me to you hunny I love you mr graham you know who you are I will always hold this one close to my heart for ever. xxxxxxxx

  • They scrapped this for Red Carpet Massacre???????????

  • i'm curious, for a long time they had that bald bloke as their guitarist, so what im wondering, when the record companies wanted to milk the nostalgia trend and reunite the original band members, did they just turn round to the guy whose been with the band probably longer than the time taylor spent playin lead guitar with the band at the start and say to him "oi...piss off" did he get a large golden handshake and did they have him back when taylor's ego was not rubbed enuf & he left again?

  • Duran Duran is my favorite band although these days they produce mostly crap. This one is pretty good though.

  • YES ANDY TAYLOR THOUGHT HE STILL LOOKED COOL YA FOOL!

  • What an amazing song, truly one of the all time best!! DD rules!! Great memories and always hoping for that last reunion with Andy again!

  • oh and can someone tell me the height of just one of the band members, what with them all being well proportioned, its impossible to tell if 3 are short and 2 r average height, or le bon and taylor r very tall and the others all around 5, 10 to six foot? if ur gonna answer one of my questions, i would rather u answer my other copmment as i am genuinely perplexed, just thought, have they photoshopped recent pic to look like from their other incarnations thru bands histoire?

  • plz xplain to me mr(mrs) uploader. when i come across an album trk of duran on utube, due to the fact there's no official vid of the trk, u see a fan made vid, often as not the uploader has gone to the trouble of makin a montage of photos of the band. which i find interestin becoz.. i thought they were hemoraging band members for a time & only recently back as a 5 piece in 2010, but i see photos of all 5 together during all their ages here in vid & other vidz.. how can that be? plz ?

  • THIS SONG IS DEDICATED TO MY ONLY LOVE GWEN , THIS IS MY SONG TO HER ,EVERY WORD , FROM YOUR LOVE PAUL XX 28/1/20011

  • i bought the entire Beautiful Colours from eBay and i've also seen it available on Amazon.com

  • this is a beautiful song..I wish they would have put it on an album..

  • this version sounds different than the ones i have. 

  • @rongravy there are two or three different versions that I know of... of course since these are unreleased Demos we'll never know what the final version would have been unless they put them in one of their future albums...

  • ASK HIM HE'LL ANSEWER YOUR PRAYERS!

  • The bootleg has a different version w/ another verse. Does anyone know where to find the lyrics for this song?

  • can anyone tell me how i can get the beautiful colours bootleg? also, does anyone know where is a version of "what happens tomorrow" with silent icy river in the bridge (original version)? please email me. I'd love to have all these songs that dd have just scrapped.

  • Comment removed

  • It's maybe the best duran song since their reunion.

    And, obviouvsly, it's well hidden..

    :-(

  • I'm trying to remember what rock I was living under in 2003-2004 that kept me from knowing they were making such good music (???)

  • Love this! You did a terrific job. Great photos and I love the song! Would love a copy of the song, can you tell me how I can get one?

  • Pretty cool songs and associated pictures! I like it very much. Can we find this song somewhere to download like Itunes or so?

  • Send me your email address. I can send you the song...

  • Sounds like Coldplay

  • i'll send u my email address! can u hook me up with all these other hidden Duran Duran gems?- I happen to like the song with timbaland- what is it - beautiful colors? and I also just discovered breath after breath- awesome.

    So now what do I do , post my email for the world to see???!!!??

  • im from portugal and always love duran duran thanks dd

  • god tell me wat album its on

  • It's not an official song. It one of the songs from the Astronaut sessions that was leaked.

  • Nice Elvis vibe at the 3:00 mark.

  • Possibly the best, most subtle vocal LeBon has ever done...he actually shows a beautiful vibrato in the chorus! One of my favorite Duran songs EVER...hard to believe they couldn't even release it as a b-side (along with Beautiful Colours and Virus - which was only released in Japan), considering some of the crap they included on Astronaut (we won't even go into the debacle of RCM).

  • ...and this short, simple version kills the other 2 mixes out there...this one thankfully avoids the painfully over-wrought middle part (where the title is actually mentioned, whatever the hell it means)!

  • I like the longer version.

  • I just think the lyrics in the middle section are too cheesy (but then it is Simon Le Bon LOL)...it's just that the song is so beautiful and subtle...I guess I feel like the extra bit is too heavy-handed lyrically...but to each his own. Hope that version moves you like this one does me! :)

  • They both move me. :D

  • Jesus, that picture at 2:00 is probably the best Simon's ever looked.

  • I guess why Andy never put his glasses out

  • Get your story right Dave,Andy quit once again, they NEVER booted him out. He's always been a weirdo anyways.

  • Not a weirdo. He said himself that the old rivalries between him and Simon and Nick (sigh) resurfaced when they got back together. Probably thought it was best to leave. His reaction to Reportage was a bit dickish, though.

  • Great Song! Great Group!

    Well... they were till they booted out Andy!!!

  • I want that photo w/ the red background w/ the four of them live; right at Andy's guitar riff... I've searched... Anyone?

  • Wow !!! This stuff is amazing !!! Where did you get this track from ??? Is it available somewhere ???

  • Send me your email address and I can send it to you.

  • Wow, Andy looks so happy to be back.

  • Geez what a tremendous discovery! Holy cow. This is gold. DD are you listening?

  • I found this song here a month ago but didn't flag it so it has taken me this long to find it again! LUV, LUV, LUV IT!!!! This is the sound I associate with Duran Duran - can't believe it never made it onto an album or even a flip side. Brilliant stuff xx

  • Wow, this is so beautiful. Simon sounds so amazing, just listen to him gliding across those notes! Stunning. :D

  • GODOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • It´s an excelent song. It´s an original sound of Duran Duran.

  • DD, come back to your roots!! Great song, yes a little arcadia. So much better than anything on rcm. RCM is the first dd album I have not bought. Timberland and timberlake............sorry dd wrong move.

  • I agree. What a shame. Astranaunt was awesome then RCM... suckage! I did like Box Full O'Honey, though!

  • duran duran adoro a musica sou vossa fan desde que eu tinha 15 anos belos anos e voces sao os melhores duran mania para sempre de portugal

  • could be off the ARCADIA so red the rose cd in my opinon ... duran at its best ... seriously, bedroom toys made the astronaut cd and this didnt? ... new producers and label please !!!

  • As I've said--I'm a true Duran Duran fan,but Timbaland and Timberlake should of NEVER been producers od Duran Duran music!!They should and hopefully will seek out Nile Rogers who did Notorious or Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who produced Human League's Human--as well as Janet Jacksons albums back in the late 80's!!!I'm still supporting the RCM album,but I hope they go back to they're roots!!I love this song!!It reminds me of early DD and what they stand for and are about!!!

  • If only they would make music for themselves, instead of trying to recapture the fame back in the 80's.

    I'm a recording artist, myself. Duran Duran plays a big inspiration.

  • this song is in the same league as there best stuff i hope someone reads this who knows them and to tell the boys to get it out on single

    lovely haunting tune

    colin le bon liverpool

  • Lovely, another winner... Thank You, Thank You, Duran Duran for all your beautiful music you have given too us all... Ur Simply One of The Best !!!

  • XXX!!! *big duranie hugs back'atcha* I hope all is well with you too babe!! Stay warm and beautiful!

  • amazing beautiful song ! touch my soul ... i love DD !

  • I played this DD demo for my Mother in 2003, a year before she died. She told me she really liked it. Too bad it never made it to the album.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • found it..

    Do a search on Google for:

    taringa "beautiful colours" duran

    That will link you to a page that has the album mentioned below..

    duran duran - beautiful colours (astronaut demos)

  • Just go on to UK e-bay and search on Duran Duran Beautiful Colours. I just checked and there are still copies avaialble, although at a slightly higher price. Hope this helps.

  • duran duran forever beautiful song irene from portugal

  • I have a CD called Beautiful Colours(Asronaut Demo's/Unreleased/Alternates)w­hich I got off the internet for about £10. There are two versions of this song on this CD and this is the alternative version. The original version is even better (it's my favourite Duran track). Other brand new tracks on the CD are Beautiful Colours,Pretty Ones, Virus, Lonely Business, and TV vs Radio. There are also a number of alternative version of songs on Astronaut.

  • how can I get this CD for myself?

  • Just go on to UK e-bay and search on Duran Duran Beautiful Colours. I just checked and there are still copies available, although at a slightly higher price. May be worth looking on US e-bay as well in your case. Hope this helps.

  • thanks for the advice, I got my cd off of ebay this week . It' awesome.

  • Please, do more songs like this one.... pity we cannot find this one in any album...

  • this song is the best song Duran has done thaty wasn't put in on an album maybe since "we need you"p.s. I am sick of hearing people not liking RCM...astro like rcm has some great songs with a few crap ones as well

  • oh I dunno. I think Fallen Angel is great.

  • The song is amazing!! So much better than the tracks they put on the RCM album. If this is type of artistic difference that caused Andy to leave ... then I can see his point.

    Hopefully the remaining four see the error of their ways, and go back to recording music like this for their next album.

  • This was actually slated for Astronaut, but was shelved because the boys felt it did not fit with the other songs on the album. This song had nothing to do with RCM.

  • ha! I dont think that Astronaut holds together very well at all! And I saw several reviews and interviews with the bank where the interviewer suggested the same time. As one reporter put to JT, this album sounds like a mix of different styles where DD don't know what direction to go in. JT's response was...you think so?

  • I agree with you ... I thought it was a so so CD. Astronaut did not flow that well at all. Sounded like they wanted to recapture that 80s magic on half of the album and the other half they decided to move towards a new direction.

  • this song is really good

  • Wish I could have seen them all together.

  • homo

  • ha ha ha ha. no, really, thank you on your request, but i'm not in to it...sorry. but keep on looking! dont loose your faith! there´s plenty people on the internet... perhaps you get lucky. good luck on your search!.

  • Amazing but I miss Andy.

  • andy is there...... in sunglasses.

  • Phew thanx

  • ...Fantastici, 2 accordi...

  • Sweet sound just like Nick's face

  • I saw the fab 5 remember in sydney, australia 1983, my god wht a show...now saw them as the fab 4 in aucklan, new zealand they are still the BEST group in the world. I was an absolute mad fan back then and today still the same...

  • I just regret the fact that I could never see them all together...I just went to see DD live and totally recommend their tour. DD is simply my all time band

  • incredible-amazing-beautiful song!

  • Hauntingly beautiful song. DD is still the best!

  • i agree wiv u it cud well be one of there best

  • yep. it should've been released. it would've been a hit!

  • am goin to see them in july an a cant wait have u erd lonely business thats a gud song to

  • cool! i just saw them on 6 May and it was awesome. pure perfection! ill have to check out lonely business. :D

  • plz do its a song that is up there wiv the best

  • wot a song an wot great vocals its how songs should be sung

  • This is such a great song! Why didn't they bring this out?? I look forward to seeing them in Brussels (Belgium) on June 18th. I'm a fan since 1984 and I will die as such. Love you guys...

  • No comprendo como pueden dejar temas como este fuera del album.Debe ser la compania discografica,ya que sin duda seria un numero uno como fue ordinary world.

  • great song, never heard this one before

  • brilliant video, very well put together, never heard this song till today, i love it, thanks :)

  • Awesome song. Duran Duran are and will always be the best band ever. Wish it'd been released on Astronaut.

  • I'm still asking, Why oh why did this not make the album? It would have been a huge hit.

  • I think Duran should take all these incredible unused songs and make them the next album!!! This one and Beautiful Colours are amazing.

  • Why? Andy why?

  • Something to remember in some far off time when you get that lonely shine in your eye Dreams and lovers ever wonder why When everything starts breaking down they're reaching for the sky You are forever all

  • I understand I hold forever here within my hands Picking through the pieces and what do you have at all? Just the danger of relying on those who'd let you fall So you try, try much harder until the truth is drawn The very thing you've been searching for has been yours all along We are forever all we understand this is forever here within our hands
