That lil masterpiece was criminally omited from the Astronaut album.Will never forgive them!So wonderful melody and lyrics.Could stand as a single on its own!How could they?Also another fab out take was Salt in the rainbow.Ialso liked "Silent icy river" b side to "What happens tommorrow?"C'mn guys.Give them a chance in a future deluxe edition.
They are AMAZING! Everything they do is AMAZING! Not just musically, but creatively in every way and their outlook on life and actually being "cosmic/universe" minded as well! BEST band on Planet Earth! 🌎
This may be the best "unreleased song" I've ever heard. I first heard it when I saw their first reunion tour in the early 2000s. The only reason I own a copy is that I somehow bought a cd from Russia that Duran Duran had sent out to all the record companies hoping to get a record contract. It contains "Beautiful Colors", early versions of songs from "Astronaut" and a handful of decent songs. I often play it for Duran Duran fans and they always love it. The band recently hinted that they might actually release their scrapped album "Reportage" that was recorded after "Astronaut". When Andy Taylor left, they scrapped the entire album and started over, creating "Red Carpet Massacre".
It's all 'may'. I NEVER believe artists when they pretend they're going to release things locked away in the record company cellar. Kim Wilde's the same about her 1998 unreleased album "The Promise". It's just something for them to say. Only Siobhan Fahey of Shakespears Sister had the pluck to harass London Records for her 1996 unreleased album, and after a lengthy court battle over a number of years, finally succeeded, but she would have won by now. Neither Kim or Duran have even tried and even if they did, I imagine the labels would successfully shut down any attempts and they'd let it.
There's been a slight improvement in the relationship with Andy, with him being involved in the latest album - and that could well result in Reportage being completed. Although I'm doubtful, and we'll be continually frustrated by so much quality unreleased stuff remaining unreleased.
Today, riding the slow train along the way Going to who knows where and who knows when Not knowing where you're rolling - it's the learning of this journey I feel if all of you people gather and believe Being The flesh and greed in is enough Promise to carry on from each moment to the next one These beautiful colours, infinite patterns so hard I see And if we're all of the same stuff There's not one of you who is the same as me Woah, beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed (Keep Moving...) Design - everyone's their own universe beside Life is a standard issue to customize Ashes to Supernova is the nature of existence These beautiful colours, infinite patterns so hard I see And if we're all of the same stuff There's not one of you is the same as me Proud beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed (Keep breathing...) Keep breathing Keep loving These beautiful colours, infinite patterns are what I see And now if we're all of the same blood There's not one of you is the same as me Crowds of beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed Keep breathing Keep loving
Gorgeous song for a summers day like this..c'mon Duran Duran you need to release this great walking or driving song here! 🙂🌼🌸 Life & people made from a tapestry spot on 👌💗
this is a lovely song why wasn't it on an album, I have said it before and I will continue to say it, Duran Duran have this marvellous ability and talent to bring out songs each and everyone different from the last their albums don't follow trends they are each one each track UNIQUELY DURAN DURAN xx
AGREED 100% Mate!! Awesome DD Tune!! They Just "HAVE IT"!! SIMON LaBon is a Top shelf Song Writer as well!! I know they all Collaborated on the Astronaut Album,, and I Was SO Lucky to Catch them Live in Nashville TN. On the Astronaut Tour with all 5 Original Guys!! Why the Hell Andy Taylor Did not Stay On Permanently like Roger & John is Still a Big WTF is this Guy's Deal anyway?? He's Selfish and out for is on Fame and is Alot like David Lee Roth! They both Laugh at there own Amusing Comments! Narcissistic Behavior!! I Think it SUX that after The Astronaut Reunion they Didn't Bring Warren Cucorillo Back who not only is a Classically Trained Musician at Juilliard I Think! But, He Wrote "Ordinary World" Definitely the Music for it, which Brought Them Back!! When they Received a Lifetime Achievement Award, The First Thing Nick Roades, Another CLASS ACT and just a Cool Humble Bloke, said was "I want to take this opportunity To Give Sincere THANKS & Gratitude to Warren Cucorillo who is One of the main reasons we are Getting this Award, and he is Such a Talented Musician, and I will always be Eternally Grateful to him for his Contribution!! That Was SO Awesome of Nick to Say that cause he's Absolutely Right On! He Wears the Glam , New Romantic make up that so many guys in Bands from that Early 80's era did. He's got the Jacket and Tie Sharp dressed but he's Not about Hamming it up for Self Attention he's a Great Keyboard Player and Again has a Humble, Modest Attitude and like Simon, John, & Roger Cares about Giving Every Audience they play to there Money's Worth Over a 4 Month Tour Every Night almost!! Ive Always Loved The Band and Simon & Nick kept the Ball Rolling and NEVER gave up even when they were playing Small venues to Small Audiences to People in there late 30s or 40's but Now they have Picked up Fans of the Next Generation with the last few Album's Collaborating with everyone from Nile Rogers to Lindsey Lohan whom they had to go pick up even one day to record in an LA Studio! Funny Story but YES! This Song from the Astronaut Album Should have been Released as a Single!! Great Sound!! Gosh I wish they Could Bring Warren back on Guitar!! But, One of The Greatest Bands of All time!! I was in College in the Early to Mid 1980's and was a DJ spinning Punk, New Wave Alternative Bands from the UK at my College Radio Station and I Played Tracks from the First Album & The RIO album which I Loved just about every Song on Each Record! Every 3 hour shift per week You could Bet Money u wud hear "Planet Earth" to "Hold Back the Rain" "Last Chance on the Stairway" "Friends of Mine" GOSH!! Duran Duran Was "The Real Shit" They were "the Shit", Again, They Just Had it!! Had and Still have All that it Takes to be a GREAT BAND that Stands the Test of Time!! Sorry for A MUCH TOO LONG Reply But, This is Just GREAT MUSIC from GREAT Artists that Warrents a Long Comment!! I'd would Love to Meet the 4 guys for 15 secs. Just to Tell them & Thank them for for all the Great Music! No Asking for Autographs just let them know how they make people Love Music just listening to Songs like this One!! Thank You!!✌️❤️ ☮️ Peace and Love to All! Cheers! & God Bless!!✌️🙏🙏😀
@@johnscala7870 Wow, you are lucky to have been able to be a college DJ at that time in the early 80s! I was a pre-teen when DD got huge in the US with Hungry Like the Wolf on MTV and always liked many different genres of music, but didn't know anything about college radio until the early 90s when I was in college, and they were playing the Cure and the Smiths and bands like that alot.
No puedo entender como hacen esas 5 personas para crear increibles temas cuando estan juntos, que superan a todos los temas que han escrito cuando alguno falta. Astronaut fue uno de los mejores albumes desde 1985. Por que les costará tanto convivir si juntos hacen magia. Este sencillo tema es una joyita que desconocia, gracias por compartirla.
@@xqdelasc70 si, lo sé, lo que quiero decir es por que no pueden entender que crean magia los 5 juntos, personalmente los álbumes que no fueron 5 siempre siento que les falta algo, y mira que soy muy fan
These guys have probably 100 songs that are unreleased have been recorded over the years for various albums. You can’t put out everything your record that’s just the nature of writing and recording. most bands write between 30 and 40 songs for each record and record between 18 and 25 for every 12 track album. Lots of stuff gets left behind

Beautiful Duran Duran 👍🎹🐈⬛🐾🌻🌺🌼🌸💐
I'll never understand why this never saw an official release. It's beautiful!
High vibrational song. Very, very uplifting when feeling a little low. Cosmic brilliance again from the Duran Duran boys. Absolutely fantastic.
I saw them in concert in 2003 in Atlantic City NJ when they got back together and they did this beautiful song!
Wish they'd reconsider and release as a single.
That lil masterpiece was criminally omited from the Astronaut album.Will never forgive them!So wonderful melody and lyrics.Could stand as a single on its own!How could they?Also another fab out take was Salt in the rainbow.Ialso liked "Silent icy river" b side to "What happens tommorrow?"C'mn guys.Give them a chance in a future deluxe edition.
Love all DURAN DURAN ALWAYS WILL VERY POSITIVE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. ALL 15 ALBUMS. I ONLY WISH AND WANT MORE
Gracias por alegrarme la vida
In short, true duran. All the characteristics. Simons wonderful voice and lyrics, the harmonies, the great sound.
Esta é das lindissímas...E 20 anos já passaram.
Why o why haven't they released this? It's amazing!!!!
It's a gem.. should of been a single.
This song is brilliant.Awesome!
Duran Duran is wonderful and a lot of talent.
Salt in the rainbow ❤
The sound is so clear, so pure, and Simon voice's is amazing
Must be one of their best songs ever 💙❤️💜💚
This song is what they play in heaven....✌️🥰✌️

WTF? This Beautiful Colours is their next Ordinary World smash on a global scale? Why did they not release this absolute gem? Love it!
they have so many HITS , no room for this one ? lmao DURAN DEPECHE ! ! ! ! !
Beautiful Song❤Love the lyrics
I'm honestly baffled why "Astronaut" doesn't get more love. It's a solid, fantastic album that I still listen to all the time Thanks for posting this!
I totally agree!
This album confirms the original fomation is the best! The magic still there
Couldn’t agree more!!
Sorry not Sorry but they are Sooooo much better with Andy and deep down WE ALL KNOW IT!!
@@darrenmatson7361 Hafta agreed. His absence has been keenly noticed and missed from the instant.
This is one of Duran Duran best song ever! I'm having this played at the end of my funeral
Wow, unreleased? These guys are seriously the best band ever.
Bloody hell Duran Duran never cease to amaze me 😮🙂 I'll die for them
They are AMAZING! Everything they do is AMAZING! Not just musically, but creatively in every way and their outlook on life and actually being "cosmic/universe" minded as well! BEST band on Planet Earth! 🌎

I will be the first in line for Reportage. Astronaut was stunning and if there is more like this out there... I WANT IT !!!

Brilliant
top song !!!!
Today, riding the slow train along the way
Going to who knows where and who knows when
Not knowing where you're rolling - it's the learning of this journey
I feel if all of you people gather and believe
Being The flesh and greed in is enough
Promise to carry on from each moment to the next one
These beautiful colours, infinite patterns so hard I see
And if we're all of the same stuff
There's not one of you who is the same as me
Woah, beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see
Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed
(Keep Moving...)
Design - everyone's their own universe beside
Life is a standard issue to customize
Ashes to Supernova is the nature of existence
These beautiful colours, infinite patterns so hard I see
And if we're all of the same stuff
There's not one of you is the same as me
Proud beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see
Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed
(Keep breathing...)
Keep breathing
Keep loving
These beautiful colours, infinite patterns are what I see
And now if we're all of the same blood
There's not one of you is the same as me
Crowds of beautiful colours, indifferent patterns for you to see
Sometimes the beauty of it all seems unbearable 'til the colours bleed
Keep breathing
Keep loving
Brilliant track !! Simon Le bon still melts my heart. ♥️👌
Melting right with you!
Petition for them to release this song
Another hidden gem, what a catchy song. Thank you, Duran Duran
'Beautiful Colours' is a beautiful song ...

I play this more times than some stuff they've released. Such an upbeat, uplifting track. Turn up the volume, people.
I followed these amazing guys while on Astronaut tour through the states and UK and I’ll say this was one of my favorites
Bello tema de duran duran simonnnnn excelente escritos salon de la fama del Rock and roll simón bellooooooo 💋❤❤❤

Az életem filmzenéje... 40 éve. Halálomig Duran Duran(és Depeche Mode, ha ez hihetetlen is...)

I think so.
@@johnscala7870 Cuccurullo,not Cucorillo.Italian origin,from Nocera Inferiore,Salerno outskirts in Campania.Missing Persons group. Rodgers
And I'm still waiting for them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it's another nonsense for me !!
They deserve to be there more than many of the lame-ass acts that are in there.
They always ignore some of the best bands for absolute rubbish. It's so disgustingly political.
They have so many great hits. It's insane that they're not in!
They should have been in the rock and roll hall of fame years ago!
It is utter negligence that they weren't inducted long ago!
Astronaut is very very very amazing...Duran Duran r the leaders of poetry..music..technology...right!
Brilliant voice every singer should learn from him
Reminds me of "American Science" but still love it as that's one of my favourite DD tunes!
Absolutely brilliant. And this didn't make the album because? Should've been a new single. 😒
No puedo entender como hacen esas 5 personas para crear increibles temas cuando estan juntos, que superan a todos los temas que han escrito cuando alguno falta.

@@xqdelasc70 si, lo sé, lo que quiero decir es por que no pueden entender que crean magia los 5 juntos, personalmente los álbumes que no fueron 5 siempre siento que les falta algo, y mira que soy muy fan
@@sebastianmalagrino así son los genios. Lo mismo en los casos de Marillion y The Smiths entre otros.
This is excellent and with that beautiful voice of Duran Duran! This is a gift? I Love it! Thank You Beautiful!!!

💙❤💜 DURAN DURAN..... A REALLY MAGICAL SONG... 💙❤💜
Good way to put it!
How ABSOLUTELY DIVINE!!
Impressed... Yet Again💖💃🔥😎Love this song... not ever a doubt 🎶
Great song! Much ❤️ to them!
How did this not make the cut? I guess it’s testament to remarkable quality of this band’s output.
Oh come on! Bedroom Toys deserved its place on the album instead of this... Didn't it? 🤔
I love this song very much!! Thanks for sharing with us this gem!!
You're welcome
Absolutely Duran Duran soundy Duran Duran Vibes!
I love this song... I am glad its available love this video too.
Love it!!!. Love Duran Duran😍😍😍😍😍
So Angelic makes you want to cry
Agreed. A joy to hear this.

Siempre buenas canciones
I've never heard that song before! I really enjoyed it.
Love this song❣️
Grief...they didn't release this! I dig it in 2021
Much better than Give it all up or Invisible. A true Duran Duran song...I hope it's released on next anthology album.
Ho sempre saputo che erano grandi. Oggi ho 50 anni, ma sono sempre stata fan da quando avevo 16 anni. Baci 😗
I love this song 🥰🥰🥰
playing this over and over.

I read somewhere that this "album",.... which I have...was pirated by a guy on a studio when they were working on Astronaut album.
Lovely song and video too.
I love Astronaut & i love this song thanks so much for posting ;-D
Still blows away anything they’ve done recently, and they still can’t be bothered to release it.
Because andy co wrote it he would get money, but he decided to F off to ibiza..
DD with Andy Taylor translates into a global success.
💜 Good Song !!
Love All Duranies !!
Very nice song and lovely video! Thank you for posting this! :) 💜
Maravillosos
Larga vida DURAN DURAN
Simon is a poet the Shakespeare of our generation I say.
I always wonder why this never made it to the album...
I am totally digging this track. Pure DD magic
Mmm... No conocía esta canción de DD!!! Está fascinante!!!🙃 Gracias Bote!!!
@Helen Morgan de nada!
I love this .could have been a hit single ❤️🏳️🌈
I think this is a typically great Duran song 🎵 & the vid is just absolutely 💯 beautiful 😍 !
It is just mind-boggling that DD never included this song on one of their Albums and released it as the lead single.
This possibly is one of the best tracks they've ever done - and it had no official release. Although it was made available to Fifa.
Thanks for sharing this. It's such a beautiful song. X
You're welcome
