Summary:
Originally broadcast on MTV as the headline act of its New Year's Eve broadcast and simulcast on FM radio for the King Biscuit Flower Hour, this lively set from the popular British New Wave rockers Duran Duran marks their first major New York City triumph.
The group, which was spearheaded by vocalist Simon LeBon, had ruled the MTV charts since the end of the previous year, but they did not take off on radio as rapidly. For this show, Duran Duran was not only performing to a packed house at New York's Palladium Theater, they were playing to millions of viewers all over the world. The stakes were high, and Duran Duran went for the gold. Shortly after this performance, in early 1983, "Rio" was in the U.S. Top 10.
All the essential early hits are featured here - including "Rio," "Save A Prayer," "Hungry Like The Wolf," and "Girls On Film." The show is interrupted to count down the New Year on MTV, but otherwise it remains a consistently upbeat show. The group augmented its original five-piece lineup with the addition of saxophonist/keyboard player Andy Hamilton.
This performance showcases the band when they were on the brink of worldwide stardom, if they weren't already there. The success of Duran Duran during this time period gave them enough momentum to get through most of the eighties as a successful act. It would also serve as the base of hits to keep the band poised for more than one reunion in the years that followed.
Wbo else is here for the Bass?
Me. Always. Huge fan and this is definitely one of my favorite songs by them for that reason. JT is a bass god
Hey~ I'm still loving it in 2024~!!!
That bassline is full of energy and John Taylor is playing it live really, really well.
probably because the song is about him
ak bass he always plays the bass guitar 🎸 brilliantly 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

John Taylor is realy underraited as a bass player. I had a friend who was only into punk and metal music, He herd me listening to DD one day and was impressed with Johns tallent
Bass is fantastic, it carries the song completely. I agree John Taylor is underrated as a bass player.
In past I didn't know too much about Duran Duran but currently this band is rocking my life 🎵
One of their best. Should have been a single.
One of my favorite DD songs
Simon Le Bon's unique voice maturing perfectly.
This was on their playlist at their 8/20/22 concert in Chicago. Such a Duran Duran classic.
This live version is much better than the album version.
I can't explain to millennials the finest glamour and style of the first half 80's music bands, neither our feelings. I've never seen that elegance anymore, unfortunately. Believe me, I'm not an old mad shit, now music men are often angry, they watch the camera just like an enemy, made strange menacing movements with their hands, a few smiles. I thought it would have lasted forever, then clothes started darkening, it came rap and now trap.
Everyone was younger in 82 ..Better times in the 80s
The bass... ❤
WHY OH WHY was this awesome song by Duran Duran never released as a single? It would've been a huge hit just like all the other hit singles from the "Rio" album, and I'm sure a lot of Duran Duran fans will agree with that too. Plus Andy Hamilton's performance in this was great too, just like all his saxophone playing in "Rio" and "Careless Whisper" as well as his playing with Duran Duran on their 1984 American tour. As for John Taylor's bass playing in this song, it completely blew me away!! John Taylor is definitely one of the greatest bass players in the music business.
It is actually the b-side to the 45, "Save A Prayer"....which was released in the UK in a remix...
primetime591, thank you very much.
John Taylor is an awesome bass player
It has been a perennial club hit for decades. It ALWAYS gets people up and moving! I think that was its purpose. John should be proud of this one, it showed his Chic inspired funk-slap-base better than any other Duran Duran song. This fker is REAL dance music!
@@primetime591 - I remember a KROQ DJ playing this instead of "Save a Prayer" (He said by mistake.).
I actually like(d) this song better and it should have been a A-side.
In my opinion this track and the chauffer were their best
This song really gallops, the bass, the bass, the drums. A gem.
If you're curious as to who John's greatest bass guitar inspiration is, just go back and listen to CHIC's Greatest Hits.
John and the band loved Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers of CHIC. They became great friends and were also creative partners.
Mr. Edwards has influenced countless numbers of bass players, myself included.😀❤
May he R.I.P.🙏
In CLASSIC Duran Duran fashion, the cowbell is mixed LOUDER than Andy!
Luv it luv it 🎉🎉🎉wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow Duran Duran best band on planet earth 🌎🌍🌎 been a die hard Duranie since 1981 now 2024 still era luv um 🎉🎉🎉
I would love to see more of Rogers drum play. in my view he is REALLY underrated as drummer. I once read - don´t know if it´s true - he was the first one who mixed the conventional drums with the (then-)hexagonal electronical drums (I´ll never forget and always love as a kid of the 80ies) - This song is one great example of that mixture.
He is one of the best drummers out there. IMHO
Roger is ON FIRE in this one.
The best Band of 80s
Yes, but not just an 80s band, they are still awesome today :)
AndyT 🎸n johnT 🎸were rocking this out
One of my favourite duran tracks
The Fab5 were awsome here
👏👏👏👏👏
God genius poetry celebrating nature- 5 awesome musicians in poetic analogy perfection. But (Nigel) John Taylor's bass just kills you. We got SO SPOILED. Erudite, insightful lyrics- boyish playfulness. F me thrice on Sunday. Duran Duran was awesome!
Excellent! Duran Duran on top form! Brittan use to be such a creative country in the early eighty's with bands, artists, and fashion, and visual art.
+Admiral Ackbar and still ..
+Katie Ruiz P.S. it's a trap...
Shame their latest release is garbage.
I think it’s my favorite Duran song. Now mind you, I am a super fan ❤️❤️🔥👏👏💃💃💃
When a band could play and sing. What happen to the new generations.
Kevin Clark ...and look great, as well.
And wrote their own songs. Maybe because they meet, know their instruments (in fact: all not good but outstanding musicians) - played in small venues for almost no money - before they were discovered. Nowaday, pretty faces got casted - who cares if they can sing or play any instrument - doesn´t matter at all...
@@lynphillips2109 regret is the wrong word. But Duran Duran nowadays have mixed feelings about the importance of their looks in the 80ies.
Digital revolution happened mate. Whatever skills you might have, just play and record it and then fix it on your p.c. Unfortunatelly
I’m 14 and I hate today’s “music”.
Duran Duran is awesome live. Have never got to see them. Always loved John, so hot!
Unfortunately this will never happen again!!
+Bel Mac I have a mix from '82, better than the released lp. Incredible and glorious. Yup, we'll not see this like from this dumb generation.

This has always been my favorite song from DD..amazing it was not an official single!
Love DURAN DURAN
Simon wrote “Hold Back The Rain”about John Taylor’s lifestyle. He was worried his alcohol, drug addiction and partying
Industrial quantities of Colombian marching powder and Danish models. (Allegedly) Terrible, terrible life
This was LONG before he met Renee. Don't put any of this on her
No wonder John Taylor left the band because he found out Simon wrote this song about him.
If Andy Hamilton stay as their sixth members,the group would never broken up because Andy Hamilton is quite bit older than Simon and the rest of those young guys plus he would make sure those kids would behave and keep their nose clean.
@@davidmoore651 Nothing against Danish models - I could live with that addiction easily, I think 😂
WORD
FUCKING AWESOME
Best version of this song ever
GET IT...
Their best song as far as an outlaw can tell. John’s bass is awesome on about all of 81-82 published songs!
The 12” mix version is a excellent. It’s available for purchase in ITunes. This is one of my fave DD tunes. I agree with others on here that it should’ve been released as a single.
so much energy love the song !!! they should bri ng it back to their set list ....Andy is in it for sure hahaha AND Nick is smiling.. hahaha
So in love with them in the 80s. I recognize all the guys expect who it the brown haired guy in white and black singing back up vocals.
This and many other songs stand the test of time
Heather Moultrup, the guy singing backing vocals while playing the cowbell and jumping up and down is Andy Hamilton. He played the saxophone on both the "Rio" and the "7 & The Ragged Tiger" albums plus the saxophone on "Careless Whisper" by George Michael. He also toured with Duran Duran on their massive 1984 American tour, and his saxophone playing during those performances were fantastic. I'm glad you love Duran Duran as much as I do.
I remember my parents who were very up to date musically. .. from Elvis, Beatles (who the saw live in the cavern, Liverpool in the 60s) sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, rainbow even the police.they travelled long distances for me and my friends to be able to experience the excitement of screaming until I lost my voice at all the DD concerts I attended. ... but because they where a different generation they thought their music was better than mine! its only natural for us to think that ours was (is ) better than the before and after!
+Bel Mac To be fair, some of their acts were better than 80s act. Not all but some for sure.
Andy Hamilton should be recognised as a Duran member. After all the faithful years he has dedicated to dd
+Bel Mac No way.. He was a good thing for DD but that is it.... So Rio and Carless Whispers will be songs he will always be remembered for..
Bel Mac, I completely agree with you. Andy Hamilton should definitely be recognised as an official member of Duran Duran. His performances during Duran Duran's 1984 USA tour were fantastic. As for his performance in this concert, I enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed John Taylor's bass playing and Simon Le Bon's singing.
ikr. I guess he wasn't 'pretty' enough
Disagree. He SHOULD be recognized as a member. He was great. They had 3 Taylors, why not 2 Andys?
No.
2 14 what a killer bass
One of the only a few songs on Planet Earth played in space by the crew of one of the Space Shuttle mission back in the 80s.
THIS IS REAL BEAUTIFUL MUSIC!!
Great song - great video! Thanks - peak early 80s! Class!
Duran Duran featuring Simon LeBon,Andy Taylor,Nick Rhodes, John Taylor, Roger Taylor, and some weird guy playing the cymbal.
Símply the best!!!!
I think Simon, nick nd John thought that they were dd then.. The performances from Andy and Roger were equally spectacular !! oh how I miss!!
Andy Hamilton on backing vocals. Fantastic!
they need to pllay this more live istg
Great song
No idea why this isn't included in their regular setlist.
+haro82 They hate the song ..it was one of theirs that made me really love the band My little sister and I would play it over and over ..
It's truly fucking sad because it's one of their best songs.
What!?? It's awesome!!! They are fucking weird!
haro82 I heard in an interview JT say it was a bitch to play live because of double cords or something like that. I think this is truly my favorite DD song. 😁
Lori Harding, I remember coming across a similar story too. John Taylor stated in an interview that when Duran Duran played "Hold Back The Rain" live, he could play the bass normally during the first and second verses with his fingers but would quickly have to use a pick when Duran Duran played the chorus!! In this performance of "Hold Back The Rain" John Taylor seems to have everything under control, but of course only John Taylor himself would know better than anyone else how this is done.
最高！！！！もう涙が出てくるよ
Love simon s t shirt
I used to play this song before I ran a race. At 16 it got me to 38 min for 10k, 17 min for 5k and 30 min for 8k.
Love this band, love this song. Seen them in concert 4 times, never seen the perform it live. Hope they do it next time.
What years did you go to their concerts?
@@honeybee1226 First one? Late 90s, Mendazzaland tourThe others were during Red Carpet Massacre, 07 or so.
Good news, saw them this year on their Future Past tour. And they did indeed do Hold Back the Rain. It was glorious.
FOREVER! DD
Roger Taylor is BANG ON pardon the pun with that click track and sequenced keyboard part with those headphone, always been a great drummer. Then they're all great musician in this band shame I found Nick is a huge Crowley fan :(
One of my favorite driving songs in my SPG!!
Awesome performance. I so wish I was there!
Tenor777 I was there
Tenor777 は
Tenor777, my thoughts echo yours. I wish I was there too dancing to "Hold Back The Rain" and all the other beautiful songs Duran Duran performed at this fantastic concert. As for John Taylor and his powerhouse bass playing, he has to be one of the best bass guitarists in the world.
PENNY BOULTON, good on you for being there and I bet you were having one of the best times of your life at that awesome concert. If I was there, I would've been on an all-time high simply because Duran Duran are one of my all-time favourite pop groups and "Hold Back The Rain" is one song I just can't get enough of.
@@adamhepburn9701 Totally agreed (sorry for the 3 year response...never received a notification!) The band was tight and very professional from the very beginning. And I was especially impressed with Andy Taylors singing those last few seconds of the song. It's too bad he never got the chance to sing lead more (unless it was on deeper cuts that I'm not familiar with)
I barely remember this compared to Rio and Hungry like the wolf, but I think I like it better. I would have been 12 and it’s not like I had a stereo - had to wait for songs on MTV. Critics said they would fade away and were just a boy band - boy how they were wrong - back when bands formed from friends and friends of friends. John Taylor was always my favorite and is genuinely a nice guy - my husband met him by chance, skiing in Aspen, around 1985 or 86 in a warning hut - struck up small talk and my husband said “You look kind of familiar” (mind you he was wearing a hat and ski gear, so his hair was covered and he didn’t have the artistic makeup on) and John said “I play bass for a band called Duran Duran” - I would have freaked out but not hubs - he didn’t ask for his autograph because he doesn’t want to make people feel uncomfortable and figured he was trying to be incognito, and he respected his spay. I LOVE the songs heavy on the bass - love how it sounds.
1982! radio stations in NY were not playing Duran Duran until 1984!
AAAAAAAAAAAAH PALLADIUM NYC ICONIC VENUE
聴き手をふわふわ浮かしてくれるサイモンさん最高‼️

Aplausos duran duran y huracan lo.mejos de la musica y el futbol del mundoooo
40 years, could hit today.
Bellissimo!!!, suono fantastico e voce genuina!!
Andy Taylor chiming in at the end! awesome.
I like the goofball on the left banging on the drum with one drumstick. You know he’s just hoping to score with anything left over after the real band picks all the girls
A great b -side song they where just as good as the ones they released. love Duran Duran most underrated group of my generation 40plus years in the business and still going strong.
JT is the MASTER of the BASS! This song is about JT’s coke increasingly horrible drink and coke problems at the time. He’s been sober for decades now 🥰🥰🥰 Although, Simon looks cooked off his ass here. 🤪🤪 Looking again, they all do!!
😆 🤣 😂
God where are your comments. wakens up. ... This song is enough to do that
la mejor época de Duran Duran

Oh John meow
They were and are so so good. Great musicians. Simon's dancing at that time was 1980's-appropriate. But who is that guy in the beginning dancing and hitting the cow bell? Too much cow bell?
I live duran duran
