Duran Duran Live at Cruel World 2024 in Pasadena, CA. 05-11-2024

[@Kowinaida]

Simon has certainly looked after his voice. Legends.

[@ninjabluewings]

He sure has, I saw these guys last year and they sounded STUDIO PERFECT!!!

[@simonrae3048]

Have to agree. 65 and still sounds excellent

[@nfl305]

Wtf he sounds terrible - butchered ordinary world.

[@chriscuthbertson]

John Taylor is the coolest man alive. The way he just struts round the stage while playing those iconic bassline is awe inspiring.

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Still sounds amazing as always

[@eveoflow]

He’s the coolest guy and a tremendously great bass player

[@frannyfaye2683]

Sexzzzzzy!

[@moniquedenouden9289]

He is a very cool cat.

[@lanasgirl479]

That’s why i love him sm

[@a20thcenturyman41]

John Taylor is one of the most underrated bassists.

[@88Seabass88-n5n]

He was underrated for many years, even decades. But not any more. He’s considered one of the most talented bassist on the planet. I don’t think we need to worry that JT is not receiving the recognition that he deserves. Just ask anyone that knows anything about the industry who’s the best and they will point you to John Taylor.

[@ultrajazz5335]

Have you watched the movie “Sing Street”, they talk about how he is the most proficient bass player, great movie if you 80’s music.

[@michaeltherrien6814]

No he isn’t. He is in the rock and roll hall of fame and has won Grammy’s. Hardly underrated

[@cristian6923]

Absolutely!

[@Ross_From_Synthetica]

Play that f***ing bass, John!

[@ericaw7353]

Holy crap Simon's voice sounds AMAZING!!! He obviously practices quite a bit! Thanks for sharing.

[@AndreLucas-kd2pw]

Parece não, é incrível

[@jonguillermo]

Simon's voice never changed until now. He still have that 80's sound. Incredible...

[@jonguillermo]

@@moumousse2437 to tell you the truth i hear pure music in 80"s and 90"s era. i dont know about you. oh i see now. you only hear sound effects, explosions, and trash talk on your pc while gaming. i rest my case. GG well played 😄😃😀

[@MissVfromCali]

I was so tired and sore from the long hot day but DD gave me a second wind. They had me dancing until the very end. 🥰

[@bebe-i1t]

I was so tossed that day I don’t remember any of the bands at all🤪😂

@@shnirk011 for sure dude, I felt like a jackass. I told my cousin, “they next time we go to a concert, no ‘pre-gaming’. Peace and love from Southern California 😎🕺

[@victorwho744]

I'm a total metalhead, been all my life. But Duran Duran has always stayed with me no matter what... Tons of great songs and it takes me back to the 80's. There's just something that always talked to me with this great band. Still sounds absolutely fantastic, wow. The setlist is everything you could ever want. Well done boys!!!

[@johnrpizzaguy]

I was a working musician in L A where I grew up ( 60s 70s 80s ) I always had a side hustle for a major major band manager (Irving). I would always have a great time and make $. One day I was asked to shuffle the band Duran Duran around to record stores for in store signings, 3 stores and a few limos later, they were great and very respectful unlike other bands that I have dealt with.

[@richardchavez985]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your story.

[@JC-yz1sf]

That’s so cool!!! They are definitely known for being great guys!! 👏👏👏👏

[@MrTedragsdale]

There's no such thing as an LA music scene anymore!

[@bklm1234]

Simon's voice is so good

[@vadimwalkman]

I liked the concert. Simon's a talented man.

[@eveoflow]

I can’t believe how Simon’s voice cuts right through everything and you hear him so clearly so strongly what an incredible voice so much control and power and beautiful tone

[@Raceross]

Surprising my husband of 31 years with tickets tomorrow night for his birthday Winstar Oklahoma 🎉I’m so excited !!! He doesn’t have a clue I just said pack a bag babe ❤ Duran Duran was our Jam back in the day and forever …

[@richardchavez985]

That’s awesome!

[@josearqco]

What a wonderful thing! ❤

[@infowazz]

awwwwww

[@loriharding2023]

OMG how exciting !!!

[@tigergreg8]

You must be one hell of a nice wife to have around. I love the pack a bag babe, that sounds so 80's too. May you be together for Time and All Eternity.

[@kenfauzy8357]

Simon's voice not change at all, amazing!

[@rickr2029]

You obviously didn't listen closely. From at least "A View to a Kill" forward he was straining in his upper register. Sounded hoarse as hell. Did fine in his lower. I am just glad it is him singing and not a track.

[@janinthe80s]

Yes big difference from a View to a Kill forward but I still enjoyed it. I hope he can rest those cords.

[@rickoving9466]

@@rickr2029 He had a cold..

[@rickr2029]

@@rickoving9466 yeah sure. Well he must get them often. And kenfauzy8357 must think he's always had one his entire career. Since he could not detect any difference. Again, it didn't affect his speaking voice or lower register or the songs prior to AVTAK but nice try!

[@racoonistologist]

It does change! Before live he wasnt top! NOW HE IS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jinjungwon]

사랑합니다 역시 나의 듀란듀란 오빠들 변함이 없으셔서 너무 고맙습니다 건강하세요 한국에서 아주 오래된 팬이 전합니다 정말 감사합니다^°^

[@Truckngirl]

Simon LeBon took VERY good care of his pipes. Damn, he sounds exactly the same!

[@BTR-xw4of]

Taylor in my opinion is one of the all time best bassists to come out of the UK. Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, arguably the 'tier one' bands as part of the 'New Romantic' UK music genre still bring it. Sadly Span have had a terrible history of disputes over song writing royalties and endless litigation, however when they 'have' reunited Spandau Ballet still fill arenas globally. Duran Duran, having a 'forced' change on guitars due to their original/founding members health problems also are still as relevant today as they were in the 80's. MANY 'New Romantic' bands + artists went on to leave an indelible mark on not only their home domestic UK market, but globally. Simon's voice still holds up extremely well, and the band's still tight. Thanks for this.

[@thesynthfloyd]

Let me tell you something interesting. In Brazil, Duran Duran is huge, several hits, a legion of fans, as for Spandau Ballet, just "True", which was an average hit. Not big, that a few people remember, but almost no one knows the name of the band.

[@HugeYFronts]

Ahem…Mark king, level 42, bass god

[@baturguney3570]

I have been following as many recorded performances of duran duran via youtube over the years and they never cease to amaze me. Always sounding top guality and never missing a single note compared to studio recordings. Simon le bon amazingly sounding almost the same as 40 years ago just wow! Tbank you for your valuable effort, this will ne another one i will go back to in the future 🙏

[@r3tr0actiongamer24]

Saw them last year and they sound just like they were shot out of the 80's, simply amazing

[@crchekouras]

Can't do concerts anymore for health reasons. Felt like I was there. Thank you so much for posting.

@@sterllingmilaWow!!!!

[@Susiecat24]

People all on their phones not enjoying the real experience. It’s so sad 😞This is seriously the lamest crowd I have ever seen. No one dancing, clapping and singing. Unbelievable because Duran Duran is amazing live. I am 53 and would have been going crazy on every song and not on my phone.

[@oathbound]

With all due respect to Duran Duran great band, all of the non lame people were at the other stage watching tones on tail's first concert in 40 years 😉

[@memorialgardens1664]

I agree 🤝🎶💯🥲Susiecat sending good thoughts your direction 👍💕📣 Nathan 55 😏

[@JackSullivanVideos]

Thank God for people on their phones. If it weren't for them, I never would've been able to enjoy this concert today!

[@sparrow8740]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqS8gp54nKyar9Usi=paxRpXzk_PcYmWDN I totally agree. But look here. People are without phones, jumping, singing and dancing like in our times. They are the old fans. Look at Simon and John, Roger how happy they are with this participation and involvement. Even Nick smiled, incredible 😉🤣 I was so moved to see this and tomorrow I will be there for the second concert that they had to add given the sold out of the first date and the request. I have to say this time, proud to be Italian for the warmth and passion that we have❤

[@richardchavez985]

I knew I forgot something. Thank you for the heads up. Fixing now!

[@glamnesianouveaux2039]

That intro is STUNNNNNING!!!!! ... The Chauffeur, Careless memories, New Moon On Monday, Planet Earth, Invisible ... Nick Rhodes xoxoxoxoxo

[@Edlver1]

I can't believe they led off with The Chauffeur..... very emotional. Sing blue silver!

[@mrmarshmadness1]

Exquisite set! 40+ years in the business and they STILL sound THAT GOOD! Simon is 65 for cyring out loud - and his voice is still smooth and in tune! Nice work, lads!

[@davidpearlactorteacherbizman]

Great Riffs by Dom---great jungle beats by Roger...John looks half his age...Nick always solid....Simon a force of nature..Better than ever

[@federicosecondo7062]

I'm really happy to see a band still as good and credible as Duran Duran. When I was 11/12 years old I was already too fanatical for David Bowie and Heavy and Punk music that I almost despised this band. Later in the years I understood that I was very wrong about their real value and that I underestimated them perhaps because of their enormous commercial success and, more than anything, because of the loud and irritating emphasis of the many Duranians in love...! Today I would be happy to see them live but I have to settle for this video show which opens with the splendid "The Chauffeur", one of the best songs ever, which retains an immortal charisma along with many of their other historical pop-rock masterpieces. Long life and satisfaction to Duran Duran!

[@Peter-mn7fz]

Duran Duran was my favourite band in the 80s. But the guys are still going strong 40 years later. When you look at these guys and realise that they're all in their 60s, you'd think time had stood still.

[@Stopthecrazz]

Simons voice still impeccable
