OOOO Simon was looking very manly in this one. YUM. But I still will always love Roger the drummer the most. Huge crush on him back in the 80s. OMG I was SO in love with Duran Duran. Have you dont "Save A Prayer" ??? Sorry, I follow so many reactors that I can't possibly remember who has done what, lol
It took more than a year for Duran Duran to get a record contract. Duran Duran got their record deal in late 1980. The band was started by Stephen Duffy (aka Tin Tin) & John Taylor & quickly followed by Nick Rhodes in 1978. They went through multiple members in the band with Roger Taylor joining in 1979 & then in the summer of 1980, Andy Taylor & Simon Le Bon joined to become the Duran Duran that became a commercial success. None of the Taylor's are related. This was Duran Duran's lineup evolution up through when they got their record deal: 1978 line up: Stephen Duffy (vocals and bass), John Taylor (guitar), Simon Colley (bass and clarinet), Nick Rhodes (synthesizers, tape and rhythm machines) 1979 line up 1: Andy Wickett (vocals), John Taylor (bass), Roger Taylor (drums), Alan Curtis (guitar), Nick Rhodes (synthesizers) 1979 line up 2: Jeff Thomas (vocals), John Taylor (bass), Roger Taylor (drums), Alan Curtis (guitar), Nick Rhodes (synthesizers) 1980 line up: Simon Le Bon (vocals), John Taylor (bass), Roger Taylor (drums), Andy Taylor (guitar), Nick Rhodes (synthesizers)
What a band!!! The energy at their shows is unreal Ive seen them 5-6 times over the years always fantastic .. Simon’s voice is better than ever I saw them on this tour and last year too 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 This whole DVD is just amazing Standouts for me from this dvd are the stunning beautiful opening song Before the rain, Girl panic, the man who stole a leopard, all you need is now , blame the machines .. what a phenomenal career with 16 albums under their belt All you need is now is one of my fave DD albums They are hotter than ever and in my top 2 favorite bands

John's bass playing is excellent in this performance of Planet Earth. Simon didn't write this song or Girls on Film. It was written before he got there, but his voice made it successful.
😂😂 Simon wrote Planet Earth and yes there is another version of Girls on Film by Andy Wickett, but the version Duran Duran released of Girls on Film in 1981 was re-written with Simon and the rest of the band.
Like we should at every DD gig Or should I say Every 1 in 20 would do at a DD gig and get weird looks when us true actual fans shout switch it off and off we look like we are singing the wrong words!! And does anyone still shout out “ That’s Money Honey “ at the right point in Girls on Film, cos I still do….. Just some things have got to done isn’t that right our DD family 😎
Oh man, wish this was the Live performance of Planet Earth from Coachella in 2011. That was spectacular! It was happening while the sun was setting, absolutely gorgeous video
In June 1980, Duran Duran signed a production deal with Paul & Michael Berrow's independent music label called Tritec Music. Duran Duran recorded demos of “Planet Earth” & “Is There Anyone Out There" soon after (1980) with Bob Lamb (UB40 producer) & planned to release these songs independently through Tritec Music. Obviously this never happened. Duran Duran went on tour to support British singer-songwriter & actress Hazel O’Connor in November & December 1980. During this tour, a bidding war between Phonogram & EMI occurred to sign Duran Duran & Dave Ambrose (A&R), who signed The Sex Pistols & Kate Bush, got Duran Duran to sign with EMI. Duran Duran released "Planet Earth" as their debut single on February 2, 1981 followed by "Careless Memories" on April 20, 1981 & then "Girls on Film" on July 13, 1981, which were all the singles from their debut & eponymous titled album released on June 15, 1981. Duran Duran's managers, the Berrow brothers, also owned a night club called Rum Runner in Birmingham, England which Duran Duran were the house band & the band members worked in various jobs at the club. Nick Rhodes actually DJ'd. Side note: Throughout Duran Duran's support of Hazel O'Connor's tour, Simon Le Bon would join O'Connor during her encore & sing backing vocals to David Bowie's song “Suffragette City.” O'Connor added this live version as the B-side to her single "Time" (1980) off her "Sons and Lovers" album (1980). In 2018, "Sons and Lovers" was re-released with “Suffragette City" added as a bonus track to the album. If interested, the song is available on UA-cam & can be found by typing in the search bar: Hazel O'Connor & Simon Le Bon - Suffragette City (Live @ Dominion Theatre 6 December 1980 & you can get a glimpse of some classic & early images of Simon Le Bon.

Roger really stands out on drums in this performance.

Did that crowd just scream switch it off?? Duranies! 😂❤
They did!
@@LARENLM awesome!!
Like we should at every DD gig
Or should I say
Every 1 in 20 would do at a DD gig and get weird looks when us true actual fans shout switch it off and off we look like we are singing the wrong words!!
And does anyone still shout out “ That’s Money Honey “ at the right point in Girls on Film, cos I still do…..
Just some things have got to done isn’t that right our DD family 😎
@@johnnyskinner9944 if you know, you know! 😎
You should check out Electric Barbarella. It was a unusual total flop for the Duran, but I think it's a great song - and Travis might like the vid ;)
Oh man, wish this was the Live performance of Planet Earth from Coachella in 2011. That was spectacular! It was happening while the sun was setting, absolutely gorgeous video
This is not from Coachella but live from Manchester 2011 taker from A Dimond in the Mind official DVD.
@invisible2621 yeah I know, I said I wish this was the one from Coachella...
@@suzannecorona6098 sorry I was in a hurry and I misread your comment! ❤️
Planet Earth from Coachella 2011 was good and so was the Live Earth 2007 performance.
Rhythm section in the pocket on this one
Always with this band.

Not bad for a bunch of old guys, Eh? I lived it. Chicago new wave early 80's. Good times
I don't generally consider Dom a very good guitarist, but he killed it here. But Roger on those drums, wow!!
No, I'm sorry, you should've viewed the one with Andy Taylor, much better guitar riffs.
Nope, don't watch reactions to live performances.
Hmm.. 12 yr old humour
Meaning what -- are you 12 years old ?
@@draguladirt No it means .. it's cringing watching adults act like eeerm 12 yr olds
