This song is so catchy.

If John Taylor were ugly, he'd get the respect he deserves as a bass player..

@66vette509 Here in San Diego 91X use to play whatever we requested, they played B-sides all the time :) Maybe wherever you grew up, had the same type of radio play?!

Nigel John Taylor= the man who inspired me to learn how to play bass guitar (even though I will need to start all over again because I haven't plaied for ages...)

Great post, thanks bsidebaby! Everything I find says this was a b-side of GOF, but I distinctly remember listening to it in my car while cruising around back in the mid-80's. Pretty sure I didn't have the means to record from LP to cassette back then??

This is too great of a song to not be mainstream!!! Why, oh why was it only a B-side!? Simply outrageous!!!

Duran Duran is utterly amazing in my opinion :D Keep making great music and I can't wait to see you in concert soon!!!!!

@MisAnnThorpe To tell you the truth sometimes I´ve thought Duran Duran would sound better if all the songs were instrumentals, not that I don´t like Simon Le Bon´s singing, which is flawless. When I listen to Duran Duran I pay more attention to the bass and synth sounds rather than the voice

@birddogbull agree

Rhodes was talented in creativity! Maybe not in technicalities, but that's what a lot of musicians these days don't get. Creativity can outweigh all the technical crap in many ways. The same thing that made Pink Floyd HUGE!
