Duran Duran - New Moon On Monday (Alternate Movie Version)

The music video for "New Moon on Monday" was filmed by director Brian Grant during the morning of December 7, 1983, in the village of Noyers in France. The long version is a 17-minute "movie version" which includes an extended introduction before the song starts (including a scene of dialogue between Simon Le Bon and the story's female lead, played by Patricia Barzyk, winner of the Miss France title in 1980; a brief snippet of "Union of the Snake" is also heard on a radio), and is set to an extended remix of the song.

I have to say there will never be another band/group like Duran Duran 👏💯🎉 love them❤️

[@romeogarcia7652]

agree! the 80's

[@StLProgressive]

Never knew this version existed. Love this song so much.

[@JoseFigueroa-iz2on]

Same here.

[@paulbriand3334]

Think I’ve seen at least five different versions of this song

[@jasonlassiter9229]

Duran Duran, Michael Jackson, Peter Gabriel, and Culture Club always had the best videos I the 80’s. Too bad we can never get those times back. 😢

Of course you can. Subscribe your favorite 80s superstars.

This video is like Indiana Jones meets Les Miserables meets Missle Command meets Dance Dance Revolution. I haven't the faintest idea what is going on half the time but I freaking love every second of it. #duranduran4ever

[@amyleigh7660]

Same. John Taylor actually mentioned recently that this video was so awful that they won’t even discuss it. But for us fans, it’s another story🥰

So who needs the A-Team, when you can hire Duran Duran to rescue a French village!

[@BIGTONEonline]

Wow! This is one of my favorite of Duran Duran’s songs, but I never saw this version until tonight (2022). Never knew how much of the story I was missing. It makes so much more sense. Thanks for posting, Cedarbush!

[@howardbellamy2387]

i felt exactly the same~39 years on it makes sense

I have been a fan since 83 and this is the first time I see the mini movie of this music video. So elaborate and cool! Love it! Thanks for sharing this gem on youtube!

[@Mouse01011]

Same here! thank goodness for KZbin! I didn’t get to see this when I was 13 but at 53 I get to see this finally!!!

[@ChrisstineLynnn]

I was just gonna say the same thing! I saw the link in a Facebook post and thought "eh... I'm not gonna click it because I've seen the extended version on Dancing on the Valentine (the VHS)." After I got about the 2: 25 mark, things started to look different, and I was like "WHAT?? What the hell is this??" And watched the rest of the whole thing with my jaw open. Now the actual video makes more sense with the storyline. Thank you for posting this publicly!

[@davecoalwood9487]

Same now. This Lot were the bollocks eh? As I'm always saying..these Midland Rabble are fine but They always need a bloke from The Pinner/ North Arrah area to get things heading in the right direction 😂😂😂

[@davereece2470]

Filmed 38 years ago this week & this version is still my favorite Duran Duran video ever.. Thank you for posting it.

[@DronemanJoeRc]

Duran Duran did this mini movies of their videos and then they became MTV hits and this is one. Duran Duran were pioneers of music video and they were the best at it!!

[@funnysynthnoises]

That end dance scene is so hilariously bad, and I love it

[@LukeL007]

Thought the same thing, they are just bouncing up and down.

[@funnysynthnoises]

@@LukeL007 the fact that they a) did NOT want to do it and b) were drunk off their asses makes it ten times better

[@mgparis]

it's so awesome, like they got tired of acting and went "eh, forget the plot, let's all jump and down" :D

[@delinellychan]

Andy Taylor and Nick Rhodes hated the videoclip because the dance scene was ridiculous

[@ephesians.6]

Roger has the worst rhythm of all the dancers 😆 🤣

[@vaderladyl]

Vive la revolution! This is what I loved about Duran Duran. Cinematographic quality, long videos, which were very special and well produced. Probably the best videos to come out of the 80's.

[@mgparis]

3:00 - Roger looking heart-breakingly youthful, sweet and beautiful Also, love the random little inclusion of "Union of the Snake"

[@theadventuresofjimmycrapol8827]

yeah, but they actually hated this video. Specifically the end with the dancing. They cringe every time they see it.

[@hanahclaudia]

Good old times..like a precious music box with a tiny key..

[@musicandfilms9956]

As a DD fan since 1981, this is the first I've seen of this. If it really were filmed in one morning, it's extremely speedy work by the cast, substantial number of extras and crew. A night shoot followed by a day shoot is quite unusual. Including a helicopter shoot, too, I'd have thought this would be several days. Andy Taylor, in his memoir: " "Everybody... hates it, particularly the dreadful scene at the end where we all dance together," Taylor wrote in his memoirs. "Even today, I cringe and leave the room if anyone plays [it]." He recalls that they were miserable since their Christmas holiday had been cut short to shoot the video, and spent most of the day on the dark and cold set drinking, to the point that he was "half cut" by the time the last scenes were shot. "It's one of the few times I've seen Nick dance." Oh, the dancing... I can't watch any more.

[@nuclearsun2001]

Yes, i know about the cringe of the band regarding this video but i always loved it!! This was my first DD song i loved in my childhood, the chourus was in my mind since 15 years, when a friend gave me a seven and the ragged tiger TAPE! Today at 48 years, i see for the first time the entire video..omg ❤

Vickie I said then same !.. Simon's action is very good !, even in NIGHT BOAT VIDEO !. he's great in that to!. Very impressed!.

[@lonewolf333]

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought this. I have seen this video several times, but only after repeat viewings did I realize he was pretty good despite not having an acting background. It must be that he is just comfortable in front of the camera since he already had to get used to it before.

[@DerBomster]

Whn I was 11 in '84 I really wanted to have Simon's jacket with the Ragged Tiger symbol on the collar. 😄

[@BingoBet-It-AllBeaver]

Me too! I remember Simon gave the jacket away on a Saturday morning show competition, I was so jealous some girl won it.

The only reason Simon never went into acting must have been personal - for whatever reason he just wasn't truly interested, or preferred to focus on the music. A shame in many ways, as he truly does seem to have a real affinity for the big screen.

[@mgparis]

so true... he definitely had the skills and the stage presence (not to mention the looks :)

[@mgparis]

At the risk of sounding weird, Simon has always reminded me of a lion (yes, really, lol) - there's something incredibly powerful, intense and confident about him, isn't there?

[@mariflame1821]

Always thought it was strange how it was John who ended up doing some acting jobs when it was Simon that originally went to Drama and acting school. Would had loved to see him acting on something.

I think the band are slightly embarrassed by this video - not a favourite of theirs, heck, it isn't likely to ever be on their own channel. but for me it shows a band trying something way outside what was expected from a band at the time - and they should be applauded for it.
