I was just telling my husband last night that mostly thier live stuff is better than the studio versions- he doubted me, but listing to this again, I totally back up last nights statement :) Got this on cassette at age 9, now I'm 48 ❤
God bless my parents. When I got this for a Christmas gift in 1984, they played it in the car for me from Arizona and back. God bless Duran Duran for the music, the memories and the smiles.
You know they are still around. They are about to release a single any day now (before John's birthday? Also, album number 15 is about to drop as well. Some albums to check out if you have been out of the loop would be Astronaut and All You Need is Now. They haven't lost their magic.
So beautiful song! It brings tears in my eyes...I used to listen to it again and again and again.... ARENA is my favourite album!!!.... Wish I could go back to those lovely years! SO GREAT MUSIC! So great band!
Written in 1976 or 78 but not released until 1982, this song was YEARS ahead of it's time. Every electronica band today should credit this song for paving the path. This isn't the best version I've heard of it (live?), but it's still a phenomenal song. Thank you for posting.
i listen to this song all the time in my car i allways turn only this one song to full blast im starting think that this is the best song i have ever heard so far! Thumbs Up If You Agree!
This song got me through secondary school from 1985-1988. I put my headphones on and floated away. I was bullied by girls in my class for being pretty. 2022 and my 18 year old son loves it too. Thank you Duran Duran. ❤️
One of the songs that was on my car stereo on the day I met my lovely wife, Shelley. 30 plus years later and I still love her. She still makes me smile.
Yes, better than the studio album. And the flute at the end of the song reminds me of the flute that the Gelflings play in the Dark Crystal. 80’s nostalgia
duran at their very best simply amazing should play this at every concert they have been there all my life they are without doubt the best band sing blue silver
This song will always take me back to the time when i discovered it: January of 2000. I was madly in love with my first "girlfriend", Elisa...and I'd listen to this when taking the bus trip across UofM campus to see her.
Now, my friends, have you seen the film 'Drive', starring Ryan Gosling? What you're listening to RIGHT NOW should have been the song playing during the introduction! Or at least SOMEWHERE in the film!
The chaffeur ainda o melhor som do Duran Duran aí que quebra mesmo essas porcarias de hoje em dia vix apavora Duran Duran clássico de verdade pra todos nós fãs de sons verdadeiros
My favourite DD song. Arena's version is wonderful. I bought this album when I was 15. Now I'm 52 and I still love it.
Recorded the arena video on VHS when I was 16 Walter now I'm 53

Me too.
Good sound the only problem is Simon's voice..
Lol I was 14 now 49. The best version of the best song. I never have had the pleasure however of dancing to this with a man I love lol
Without a doubt, the best Duran Duran song ever.
Couldn't agree more!
This and Save a Prayer are their very best.
I'll second that! I do like 'Ordinary World' alot.
its rich in quality, for sure. and the video has tits.
If you love this one and don't know about their song 'Drive by', then TH-cam it.
This is by far the best version!!!
The best song from Duran Duran.
And probably their best live version.
This is only version that matters.
The fucking crickets!!
They did an acoustic version which is pretty killer.
God bless my parents. When I got this for a Christmas gift in 1984, they played it in the car for me from Arizona and back. God bless Duran Duran for the music, the memories and the smiles.

Mentre l'ascolto la mia mente torna indietro negli anni migliori in assoluto.
Damn i miss the 80's so much ❤❤
Don't worry we have TH-cam with Duran Duran, Roxy Music and Ultravox...we live in Paradise🙂
,,,,one of the best album ever made ,,ARENA!
Dunga
the last one minute and 23 seconds are like heaven....
This is what I call MUSIC!!
I have to give it to Nick for the haunting keyboards in this song
My favourite song by Duran Duran it’s hauntingly beautiful ❤️
So beautiful song! It brings tears in my eyes...I used to listen to it again and again and again.... ARENA is my favourite album!!!....
Wish I could go back to those lovely years! SO GREAT MUSIC! So great band!

1976 or 1978? More information about this?
Most likely 1978
The liner notes from the original album says 1978.
Live is best 1984
i listen to this song all the time in my car i allways turn only this one song to full blast im starting think that this is the best song i have ever heard so far! Thumbs Up If You Agree!
I agree, Panic... I'm a furry myself and this suits my fursona.. his name is Silver The Wolf
Silver The Wolf: Dun dun dun! Here I am! 😁
This song got me through secondary school from 1985-1988. I put my headphones on and floated away. I was bullied by girls in my class for being pretty. 2022 and my 18 year old son loves it too. Thank you Duran Duran. ❤️
this is a ballad. Simon wrote it many years ago as a poem. Haunting.He should thank Claire Stansfield for pushing him...
this is music.
I listen to them every day in my small room in my moms apartment. On a brand new stereo and record player. Over and over again.........!!!
Arena, the best live album !!!!!
This song is one of the most beautiful ever. Thank you Duran Duran!
"The song the Chaffeur is one of the best written by Duran Duran I was 24 when I bought Arena and have enjoyed the song ever since. KUDOS
One of the songs that was on my car stereo on the day I met my lovely wife, Shelley. 30 plus years later and I still love her. She still makes me smile.
Bellissima, questa è l’originale, la migliore versione. Mitici e indimenticabili Duran Duran💕
semplicemente stupenda!!! una perla che è fortunato chi la conosce!
La conoscano almeno 5 milioni di persone o forse 10.....oh!! stiamo parlando dei Duran Duran mica di me o di te... 🧡
Tranquillo.....forse è la migliore canzone dal vivo dei Duran....
Great, great, great song, great, great, great álbum, great, great, great 80's!!! How I miss it all!
Roberto Dallossi 👏👏👏👏
Siamo in 2. I miei anni più belli...
@@liviocordellina4696 Un abbraccio dal Brasile!
Goosebumps...
One of their best songs...and an amazing video....
I wish I could go back to 80s love the music
Me too....I resonate with the 80 s so much fun emotion and most exciting time of my life.
La rola más chingona de Durán Durán en 1984....que me trae recuerdos hermosos De mi juventud
Solo ellos pueden hacer un tema fino, delicado y a la vez lúgubre. 😍💕❤️🎆💞🎵💖💝
Temon!!!!... Cuantos Recuerdos..... Inmortal este tema..!!!
Que pieza! Una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos, bien por Duran Duran.
this and winter marches on { for me } are the two absolute best DD songs ever made
Love this song since the album came out❤
Arena's version: the best of all.
Superb but Too baroque. I prefer the electronic sterile slower purity of Rio's, even if it's sung worse.
Yes, better than the studio album. And the flute at the end of the song reminds me of the flute that the Gelflings play in the Dark Crystal. 80’s nostalgia
Nick Rhodes quoting "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" during the intro never fails to put a smile on my face.
Love love love this version of this song....a classic xxx
A Song a Masterpiece. Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!
duran at their very best simply amazing should play this at every concert they have been there all my life they are without doubt the best band sing blue silver
The Chauffeur live, Hold Me, And LOVE is Land, Are The Best.
Temasooo . Uno o el mejor tema de Duran Duran ... Genios mal en esa epoca maravillosa!!!
The greatest Duran Duran song
One of my favourite songs ever! Just perfect so passionate, so somber, gorgeous. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Rio from 1982, best album of the 1980's, best band of the 1980's.
My favourite Duran Duran song
Bellissima
Después de casi 37 años vuelvo a escuchar Arena de Durán Durán y es una antología de canción....Chauffer 👍👍🇲🇽
My funeral tune. Hopefully not too soon tho.😦
Great idea, actually ✨✨✨
Obra de arte do DURAN DURAN
The best.... of the best 💟❣️💟
Simon at his best!!!
This song will always take me back to the time when i discovered it: January of 2000. I was madly in love with my first "girlfriend", Elisa...and I'd listen to this when taking the bus trip across UofM campus to see her.
Now, my friends, have you seen the film 'Drive', starring Ryan Gosling? What you're listening to RIGHT NOW should have been the song playing during the introduction! Or at least SOMEWHERE in the film!
Best Version 💯💯💯
Acojonante.La mejor versión
1986, Abano Terme. Si viaggiava in moto, con le cuffie e questi brani. Bravissimi Duran
What a such beautiful versión of this song, simply amazing !!!!
Love This Song While Riding In A Limousine!
The chaffeur ainda o melhor som do Duran Duran aí que quebra mesmo essas porcarias de hoje em dia vix apavora Duran Duran clássico de verdade pra todos nós fãs de sons verdadeiros
My favorite DD song!!
Yeah, I have to agree, this might be the best song, from a great band!
Still give's me goozebumps
Wat was ik toen nog jong, en wat hou ik nog steeds van hun muziek.....Duranie for ever :)
Gives
Duran Duran é muito mais do que essas porcarias de hoje em dia principalmente esse álbum que quebra tudo
🚘 the chauffeur ❤️
Fantastic song.
Best album +song ever I remember watching the arena video seeing gorgeous Roger Taylor xx
ABSOLUTLEY THE BEST SIDE EVER
Great CD from Duran Duran
El sonido de Duran Duran, no lo ostenta ninguna otra banda ni de esa época, ni ahora.
Esta versión en vivo y las que hicieron también en vivo y acústica en 1993 alrededor del mundo, son las dos mejores versiones de todos los tiempos
one of my favs from dd !!!
perfect song from a perfect band!!!
Mitici i Duran Duran
Perfect.
Das war noch echte Musik damals :)
my favorite!
lembro quando era garoto , que saldades
a melhor versão da música até hoje
cudowny utwór, cudowna wersja, lepsza niż na płycie Rio.Tu jest magia.
best duran duran song
As nuances da música em todos os aspectos me fazem sentir algo totalmente diferente...a voz do Simon está perfeita perfeita
Love this so much
indimenticabili. .♥♥♥
Il 40% del loro successo era dovuto al fatto che erono "boni".. Il restante 60% perché erono bravi.
du n ga
Dunga
Love the solo at the end of this version.
Amo amo amo esta linda música ❤️
at minute 4:00 Simon meets Ukulele...and heaven is served !
I miss you too much, '80...
I looooooooove the flute solo!
The flute is actually an ocarina
@@zeldafan9016 Thanks. I didn't know. (2023: BRAZIL IS UNDER FULL DICTATORSHIP!)
the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart...
seeing lovers part I see you smiling, what glass splinters lie so deep in your heart?
A top 5 Duran Duran song, along with Save a Prayer, New Religion The Seventh Stranger, and Land
Goosebumps!
They are on par with bands like Iron Maiden for the New Romantic scene in the 80's. I listen to Metal and good old Pop rock .
This is the first album I ever bought. I was only 10 and bought it in Darlington town centre , 36 years ago
I remember buy it also in Darlington from bootleg shop behind the old Argos
Nostalgic musical nirvana :-)
First álbum in my hand 24/12/1984.
Totally reminds me of dracula and castlevania. Awesomeness. Prefer this version to the original actually.
Perfection 🎶❤️
