Great song! It's like the classic DD meets the contemporary DD. I love this track. I beieve "Falling Down" will do great as a first single. As long as the radio stations play it-it's virtually guaranteed. As far as the video: Was it so bad to focus the camera on the band instead of the gum playing gal??? LOL!!
The band wasn't playing-the stage was empty. They came on; said we were to enjoy a sampling of the new album and left (literally) us with PLAYBACK of 4 new songs. Only after that did they come back and perform the concert.
Iv listened to falling down not as good as this one.Box full of honey can be as big as Ordinary world for a first single.If DD gets it half right on a first single it Dosn't help the rest of the album.
There are actually quite a wide range of styles on the upcoming album, according to the band. I've always liked their darkest stuff best, so I'm relieved that this song isn't all happy-go-lucky-everything's-o.k.-all-the-time, like some of the stuff on Astronaut.
I liked about half of Astronaut: Nice, Finest Hour, Chains, One of those days, Point of No Return, Still Breathing. The rest are just OK. The two singles, Sunrise and Tomorrow, weren't my faves.
Funny, Sunrise is exactly the song I was thinking of, also What Happens Tomorrow, Taste the Summer, and Nice. I did like Chains and Still Breathing--so there were *some* darker songs on that album. Finest Hour was really good, though not dark.
Astronaut would have made a bigger impact if they had released Nice or Finest Hour as the first single. Sunrise was too average and generic-sounding, reminding me of U2's Beautiful Day. Nothing special.
youtube search duran duran the valley and select the long version if you want up beat ... also nite runer and skin divers are available on youtube (high quality) -both dancey
Dale,u didnt get the post.This new song, which has not been released yet has a reminiscence of ´Save a Pr.´and many other songs, the flute pretty Arcadia too!Nice melody! hate Teenberlake but cooperates in DD´s new album, so curse them ;d
no prob man...have been gettin flak about timblebloke from all friends (who r not duran fans). I don't like the collab but if it helps them with the younger gen then fine..songs like this at least gives me hope that "their" music is still on the album..
If they want to attract younger fans, doing a collaboration with someone so untalented and dull as Timberfake won't work. Seriously, they would have done well to have kept our dear Andy and worked with Asian Kung Fu Generation. (Just listen to their "Rewrite" song, Timbefake could never do anything like that!)
Sounds like their ´Save a Prayer´in the verse, it also sounds like Green Day´s ´Bld of broken dreams´ which is an exact rip-off of Oasis´s ´Wonderwall´. It sounds good, pretty duranie though
jjbar...sounds like save a prayer...how much do u listen duran??? the old school sound is there...which is gooood...it survives even today..flutes and sax lethal duran sound...what do u want..timblebloke dancing on stage with hit and run britney doing a dance number plezzzzzzzzzzz
Daleejr8, not blind here in North America to great music at all. TONS of fans LOVE the non-singles and B-sides. That's why DD makes sure to sprinkle them into their shows here. You're way off base about that one. P.S. I love those songs you mentioned--that I agree w/you.
not all 7tiger..i am..from north america..i am saying that to me they are soo good..and most today are saying..duran duran..are they still alive? lol. my point was not at duran fans but to the ones who r not...
Ooh, THIS one should be a single! On the other hand,for "Nite Runner," I let my own expectations of the title make me think of "Nite Romantics" or "Rum Runner"--have to give that one more listenings. BOX FULL OF HONEY, though, I immediately LOOOOOOOOOVE.
well said duranzen...lip sync lol. so true. duran is an icon. north america is so blind to great music..my fav duran songs are not the hits!! they are the ones that are missed and unforgettable forgotten...breath after breath and palamino...beautiful music to me anyway....Duran Forever!!!!!!!!
There is something to be said for LIVE shows. They aren't always perfect. Shite happens. I think what's worse are the mistakes that happen when a generation of popstars lip sync their lyrics.hem hem. You pay alot of money for fake talent versus real musicians and singers doing their thing. Art is a process no matter how painful.
And do you know what Rocalite, We're glad you didn't pay to see this either, the fans don't want negative people like you putting a dampner on this beautiful new material. God, stay away if you don't like it. WE DON'T CARE!!!!
guess rocalite isn't a really duranfan...ignore!! Simon and the boys have been working hard on the lp..so he messed up lyrics...at lest they are still around..i would pay to see jim morrison screw up lyrics and pass out on stage today!! You love your band nuff said!!!
FANTAAAAASTIC SONG! LOVE IT... does anyone know the opening word, I got all of them I think except for first few.... PLEASE PLEASE tell me if ya know em xx Ta ;o)
The whole crowd's wearing black! (Makes a mental note to wear fuschia or neon yellow at the next gig I go too). BTW...I like the song. A lot, actually!!! Hooray
A very nice song!! loved it, looking forward to the album for this song. Hope there are more stuff like this one, and less like "Night Runners", that one is so awful and not Duran at all.
This one ranks up there with other ballads like SENM, Michael (YHALTAF), Land, My Antarctica. I don't yet know if it ranks up there with the ballads from 1981-1987, but maybe so!
Yeah, I see Sunshine, Teajay, Tattoo, One N and some others! OK, like this song is SO Duran! Love it-- gives me chills! Like it much better than SITR at this moment!
Thanks for posting this. I was there, but missed it because I was waiting in line (forever!) for something to drink, and really couldn't hear it. I thought they were on stage, and I was very confused when I came rushing out later and the stage was empty!
Incredibly beautiful song!! Love it!! Thanks Teajay! I wish it would have dawned on me to record more than just the 1st one...I think I was just confused as to where those boys were! lol
The song "The Valley" is great. I didn`t like "Night runner". It was awful....
