Duran Duran - Careless Memories (Original version!!!)

From Duran Duran (1981) DVD. This is the original version, not the one that appeared on the 1983 video album. It's got all the cheesy bits they were (and probably still are) embarrassed by then. ;)

So soon just after you've gone my senses sharpend
But it always takes so damn long before I feel
how much my eyes have darkened

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke drifting in our room
So easy to disturb, with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory

On the table signs of love lies scattered
And the walls break with a crashing within
It's not as though as though you really mattered
But being close how could I let you go without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke drifting in our room
So easy to disturb, with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory with a careless memory

Oh I walk out into the sun I tried to find a new day
But the whole place it just screams in my eyes
Where are you now cause I don't want to meet you
I think I'd die I think I'd laugh at you I know I'd cry
What am I supposed to do follow you
Outside the thoughts come flooding back now I was trying to forget you

So easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory

Look out look out look out look out

this is the exact same version as the 1983 video version (including the cheesy bits), as it appears on the video collection by EMI.

@cynthiavanderlouw no it isn't.

This is their one of the best songs.They were pure, young they played from the heart.They just got together because the most important thing in their mind was playing.You can feel that watching it.

Andy wasnt edited in this version!!!

The single that flopped- yet probably their best. Raw, edgy, unique- total Duran. Was so unlike anything around at that time, and in fact theres never been anything like it since. Combines rock, punk and electronic in a frantic style- brilliant.
