ARCADIA ElectionDay (Italy TV '85)

Arcadia doing "Election day" in an italian TV show, aired in december 1985

Amazing share. Simon "Moonwalking" ( yes , you read correctly) and Nick looking fantastic and playing guitar.

[@cristinadiseppi9062]

Incredibile brano "Election day", altro che boy band per ragazzine, quì ci sono nomi quali Sting, Herbie Hancock, Grace Jones, David Gilmour, che diedero il loro eccelso contributo a tutto l'album 😍😍😍😍😍

Love performances of Election Day, Simon with his best moves. And Nick with a guitar!

[@CDEbFGAbB]

I have my doubts Nick knew back then how a guitar had to be played.

[@GG-sr4ww]

@@CDEbFGAbB there are some pictures of him apparently playing a guitar around the time of the Notorious recording sessions. Of course we don’t know if they were posed.

Recordar es vivir y poder ver estos momentos grandiosos de Duran Duran es fenomenal gracias por compartir con nosotros los fans de Duran Duran este video simón es lindo mi favorito

[@glamnesianouveaux2039]

Nick is my favourite Duran member, always has been and always will be which is why I love Arcadia so much. As it's SUCH a NICK record. It's too much for me here on this performance! Nick playing with the mini drum and then grabbing a guitar, my woooord. I am spellbound!

[@arricammarques1955]

Liz Taylor played synths in Arcadia?

[@glamnesianouveaux2039]

@@arricammarques1955 Of course not! I said Nick looks like a stunning male version of Elizabeth Taylor! Nick is obviously playing the synths!

[@g7r1g]

minute 1:16...Simon moonwalker....

[@joelmateles1826]

Ele não está cantando e sim dublando e fazendo passos do Moonwalker?!

[@Squishy9]

I just love the two dancers in Alaia leather! Does anyone know their names?

[@marcusleja7133]

The entire tune is automated playback, even Simon. :)

[@joelmateles1826]

Uma das backing vocals não é a esposa dele?!

[@patriciaharrison]

Loved it, but hated all the introductions for the cast

[@bronte8989]

Is Simon lipsyning?? Watch him very carefully??? It's his voice, so it's all good but I think he is. They are both so young and gorgeous my eyes don't know how to split the view . .

[@lebby4ever]

Yes, he is..In Italy singers normally did at that time...

[@davidsanderson5918]

Well, he's about two or three feet away from the microphone for most of it.

[@jtoh3727]

I believe he was required to for filming purposes.

[@jtoh3727]

Plus, how else was he going to moonwalk…

[@Badboy-dg1dh]

....

[@WizardGlik]

R U aware you're beating an eagle?

[@decafcoffee73]

This was about the downfall of Duran Duran wasn't it? The album Notorious really do that well did it.
