  • it's at 2:53, so you don't have to sit through that whole song

  • The mic is feeding back so bad. I bet the monitors were awful. Your voice cracks when you are pushing it too hard which happens when you can't hear yourself. Big effing deal.

  • Thats called being knackered!

  • Ha ha no big deal but that's pretty fuckin' funny in front of that big Live Aid crowd - mainly because there's barely any noticeable reverb on his vocals to help hide it. The dryness of the vocals makes it that much harsh & in your face.

  • I so hope that they play this on this tour!!! Cause I think i'm pretty much in the front row for the brisbane Australia and if possible am going to sing the chorus as loud as i can to Simon!!!

  • Holy crap, that is a crappy note he did!

  • I have the feeling that he was rattled from the feedback coming from the mic and monitors. Stuff like that can throw off performances. So this was not really his fault.

  • @marksickmiller thanks m8!

  • After the false note he sings good again!

  • There are a lot better reasons to condemn Duran Duran than this.

  • Adam Lambert ancestor :)

  • sounds like astrangled cat
