DURAN DURAN - FRIENDS OF MINE [HD]

[@fleas.]

Everyone talks about John, Simon, and Andy, but can we take a moment to appreciate Roger? That man is absolutely wonderful at what he does. He's one of the people who inspired me to play drums. He's just so quick and precise

[@chriscadillac8448]

I know. He is a great drummer. He is also the most private and reclusive of the original 5. The meteoric rise to fame they "enjoyed" put a heavy strain on his nerves, too; which is why he bowed out for a few years in the '80s/90s. Without a doubt, the original lineup was the best... I'm glad they're all back together. 👍

[@tsmith7146]

It wasn't a released "video" as such - it was a performance for a UK Saturday morning children's show called Swap Shop - this was in very early 1982.

[@JOHNNYSGIRL1960]

John's bass playing is one of the main reasons they had all those hit songs. He was self taught and was always on the ball.

[@sammencia7945]

One of the best bass players in Rock...at the age of 19. His baselines "make" Rio the lp it was.

Absolutely. His bass drives it along with Andy’s guitar.

I wish someone had filmed that show.. we were front and center and dancing the whole time..thrilling memories..

Simon still looks handsome in 2022. I see why I had such a crush on him in the 80s and 90s and the time of this video. In interviews he would say he didn't do as much drugs as other rock musicians because he needed to keep his vocal chords and voice healthy. Now in his 60s, his lesser use shows.

This is a video/dubbed performance they did for the Multi-Coloured Swap Shop TV Show from the early 80's (They also did Girls On Film on the same show). Its on the DVD of the 2CD/DVD re-release of "Duran Duran" from a few years ago, along with a few other TV performances.

[@toniremer1594]

I've been a full fledged Duranie since 1981, and I'll die a full fledged Duranie. I think that somehow my mom knew when Nick and Simon were born, because I was born on Nick's ( 8 years after him ), and my sister was born on Simon's ( 13 years after him ). When the 2nd British Invasion hit, I was...still am...into every British band from the late 70s to middle 80s. God I WISH I could go back in time, so that my husband and myself could experience the decade all over again and again and again. I'll never want to leave. Plus, my mom would still be alive ( RIP mom who I got her into A LOT of the British bands ).

[@okafala605]

There was another (better) side to this bands' music that, sadly, the masses never experienced. Despite their huge success in the early 80's, paradoxically they are a very underrated act. This is my favorite song by them, oh and Khanada, oh and Secret Oktober, oh and New Religion, oh and...

[@liztaylor3825]

and Late Bar, and Faster than Light, and…

[@realworkoutsforrealpeople743]

[@legie6475]

I couldn't agree with you more ! Underrated and away from their main "big hits", this song, New Religion should have been big hits, but as a fellow Durany we no their music was pretty cool and the best era in my life the 80's. Keep happy my friend. Duran Duran ❤

[@GohAhweh]

Sound of thunder and faster than light..💋

[@andrewbrown8396]

You sound like a well versed person of taste (from a pretty well experienced DD follower). Very true - I still really rate some of the B-sides and non-singles that just totally captivate. After all, to appreciate art we sometimes have to look at things from a different perspective - look beyond the immediately accessible works and find pieces that take your breath away. Additionally, when you listen to some of the late 80's re-arranged pieces of their more familiar works, you get to see a band that really understands their music and vibe, delivering art that goes well beyond the "pops".

[@heidimay3107]

This song & video are HUGELY infused with the energy, freshness & originality that characterized New Wave music when it first came out & represented such an undeniable break with Pre-1980's Pop/Rock sounds, styles & conventions as to make being a teenager or early twenty-something at that time (as I was) a totally mind-blowing experience.

The more I hear DD today the more I feel I was right back then. The original sound of this band was Andy Taylor's guitar it gave the band that edge and popularity. Yes there was the Nigel who became the good looking John with Simon but the guitar was that constant accent in the band. I always thought Andy never got the recognition for his contribution to the band I remember the early members of the band such as Andy Wicket who helped Simon out with he's singing. They where great times growing up in Kings Heath, Moseley area of Birmingham getting the 50 bus and hitting the town up Broad street, Digbeth, John Bright street the old 45, 47, stop.

Northern California 2023!

I remember sometimes wearing a rolled bandanna on my head as J. Taylor does in this video. What a time it was.

Mi favorita ❤ Duran Duran que temazo los coros la energía de otro mundo.

[@missionridiculous]

Wow, I've never seen this till now! One of my fave Duran Duran songs too :-) They opened with this when I saw them at the Metro (in Melbourne) and the crowd went bonkers.

[@jsc9000]

Was that the tour the supported Robbie Williams in stadiums? I was at Brisbane’s leisure centre (v strange venue) then at the metro then supporting rw. Very surreal week 2002 I think.

[@sl4983]

Saw them 2 months ago and the crowd went bonkers!! Northern California

[@demii2082]

I love when they play this song live, saw them at the Isle of Wight festival last year, was amazing! On another note, I love the music videos they did with these uniforms, especially the hair, and Simon looks so cute!

[@armychic15]

Wow, talk about a trip back in time; I love this!!

[@SerialGothQueens]

I've NEVER seen this before....it wasn't even included on the VHS "video album" I have from back then. This is awesome!

[@jaysterling26]

I'm sure it was filmed for a Saturday morning kids show 'Saturday Superstore ' . Judging by hair and clothes late '81 circa 'my own way' ( if u haven't already heard the b side 'like an angel ' do so in its many versions).

[@ladyi7609]

Jay Sterling I thought it was for that show "Swap Shop"? Idk, I'm not at all familiar with British children's programs seeing as though I'm an American and I didn't even start watching TV until I was four (1983, which means I'm old for certain places online).

[@1984AP]

1st time hearing this. Love it! So great discovering rarities from the 80s. I thought I heard all of Duran Duran's stuff. The video is quite cool. God the lead singer couldn't get much prettier.

[@giseleaponte4516]

Duran Duran is a classic, that will not Ever be Matched. I loved them an their Genius Talent.

[@sl4983]

Well said

[@kymrakurinskas4025]

They just played this in Boston last week. Pulled out TONS of deep cuts for the Duranies 😀

[@sl4983]

Cool! Saw them in northern California earlier this year. When the song came on it was crazy. Great song for a concert!!

[@doreentravis6499]

LOVE DURAN DURAN!!! Can't wait for the US tour dates!!

[@ucookin]

blur most definitely lifted this duran track for girls & boys

[@tsn021171]

whatthehellvideos I had never noticed that before-but now I can’t not hear it-you’re right x

[@vithouse8037]

Yes around 1994 every duranie connect Boys and Girls like a retroduranie flavor.Damon voice connect too with Simon early tone.

[@midnightwitch4603]

@Samuel Rummer they should have sued them, like the kinks tryed doing to the doors beause hello, i love you sounded like all day of night lol 😂😂😂😂

[@lorettatolnaybolton]

Wow yes you’re right! How did I not hear that before?!? Duran - the original and the best! 💕💕💕

[@breath888]

There's only notes A-G, plus sharps/flats and keys. This is bound to happen throughout time. I doubt it's intentional. I'd have to be in the room when it's written to know that. I love both songs, but despite the similarities, they have a completely different feel for me. There's a song by the Cure that's like this, but I can't remember the other song for comparison. Brain's too old lol.

[@emmajane2099]

My favourite band as a young girl, had every poster and newspaper clipping, John was my favourite, nearly 47 now and still love them, we never got to see these videos years ago, totp or just 17 magazine and smash hits. Saw them live London 89.

[@mitternacht07]

When I would go to the disco I would dance just exactly like Simon...great memories indeed thanks for sharing!

[@jplogan70]

A precursor to the sounds on Seven ? Might be the best song in the whole album. That Chorus 🔥 Underrated.
