Just my favourite Duran Duran track ever and of all time. I could listen to it on a loop and never tire of hearing it. It's beautifully written and performed.
So, so jealous of you! I've only seen them live a handful of times myself. Hopefully there will be many more opportunities when things go back to normal...
the layering of the instruments and vocals are what makes this band top of the game. I also love how they were unafraid to play with sounds most bands weren't at the time.. seriously the ocarina.. wow. Major talent. Happy 30th Reflex.
Such a powerful piece of song writing.....so haunting it's etherial, transports you some place in the past, to the future far out into the cosmos.....Damn
Oh Gosh, they were sooo young (& so was I)!! Now I can see again why I was sooo in love with Simon, did you see his GORGEOUS face??? And hear his gorgeous voice? Of course I love the other members too! Their music, their style, their videos... Thank you Duran Duran, and thanks to 7thstranger for sharing this beauty with us :-)
All the people here fascinated by this video performance from 1988 are so praiseworthy how to reach such an authentic strangeness... DURAN DURAN remain legendary musicians including Simon Le Bon who is beautiful and so talented.
greatest 80's song of all time. my first concert was duran duran. they sang all the hits except this one. it was an amazing show. would have been greatest show ever if he would have played the chauffeur
The great Duran Duran no limit to their talent the gorgeous Simon 30+ in the business wow why aren't they in themusic hall of fame there's lot less talented groups in there.
WOW!!! They remade their own song. Wouldn't think that such an electro song would work with horns, for example. But the jazzy, noir-ish intro suits the song's mysterious ambience perfectly. Kudos
I've come up with a totaly different story after listening to it closely. The story is about a weathy woman, her daughter and their Chauffeur. It starts off as the daughter prefers to sit in the front seat with the chauffeur instead of the back seat with her domineering mother. He notices how lady-like and charming as she sits besides him. As he drives the two to their destination he starts to daydream of the perfect moment with her. He looks up at the rear view mirror and sees her envied mother holding her fast in her gaze. When they finally arrive at the destination the chauffeur opens the door and notices the daughter smiling at him as would lovers. The mother yanks her daughter away and looks at chauffeur with mean and cruel eyes. As the Chauffeur stands there watching them walk into the distance, leaving him further behind. :) That's the actual story. :)

Not just my favorite Duran Duran song of all time, but my favorite song of all time. DD4ever
Me too!
Despite the presence of their other masterpieces I also think so
My fav too when I was 15 but this version is just is lame, let us admit.
This version is just so beautiful... Mesmerising ❤️❤️❤️
This song is so hypnotic. This version is really awesome.
Jaime Ellen-Grace is true!!i agree with you
Magnífica versión!
yes truly awesome
Simon's voice is so amazing. I remember seeing them in concert at the ripe age of 11 in the 80's. They are still simply the best
Nick Rhodes is the most underrated programmer.
Qui siamo su un altro pianeta!
Yes, baby. That's live! Seen them over 40 times! His voice is one of the greatest!
So, so jealous of you! I've only seen them live a handful of times myself. Hopefully there will be many more opportunities when things go back to normal...
Nick is so freaking awesome on the keyboard, some of his best work, he has been my favorite in the group 😍😍
L'assolo con l'ocarina è una delle cose migliori degli anni '80
Lovely song. Slept many, many times with it. It was my Lullaby.
the layering of the instruments and vocals are what makes this band top of the game. I also love how they were unafraid to play with sounds most bands weren't at the time.. seriously the ocarina.. wow. Major talent. Happy 30th Reflex.
I still can't get over the spiritual feeling that comes over me EVERY time I hear this song!
Oh my...so sensual, suave & hauntingly beautiful as it not only pertains to the song but also to their magnetism.... oh yes!!
The best song they ever did - relatively unknown when compared with their massive hits though - superb!!!
Duran Duran is forever and this clip version is divine...
Very good video...
Fucking amazing. This song drips sensuality. I had no idea Simon played the ocarina so well!
What a unique and beautiful version of The Chauffeur. I LOVE it.
Such a powerful piece of song writing.....so haunting it's etherial, transports you some place in the past, to the future far out into the cosmos.....Damn
Simon's voice is magical...
Dear Duran Duran.
I love you so much.
I love this versions, its perfection 🎶🎵
Wow, I had no idea Simon Le Bon played that flute part on an ocarina.
Jonathan Berman ikr
Not only is he talented, he is also gorgeous 🥰!
@@meganarmstrong3950 Seriously!
Oh Gosh, they were sooo young (& so was I)!! Now I can see again why I was sooo in love with Simon, did you see his GORGEOUS face??? And hear his gorgeous voice?
Of course I love the other members too! Their music, their style, their videos... Thank you Duran Duran, and thanks to 7thstranger for sharing this beauty with us :-)
Duran Duran, que banda mais maravilhosa que voz o Simon tem ❤❤❤
All the people here fascinated by this video performance from 1988 are so praiseworthy how to reach such an authentic strangeness... DURAN DURAN remain legendary musicians including Simon Le Bon who is beautiful and so talented.
Never ending beautiful song.....!!!
Песня нашей прекрасной юности! Северодвинск 1990
It's the best song that I can continued to hear until I die.
OMG... *goosebumps*
Also, can we rub this in the faces of the misguided people who dismiss DD as a "pretty boys band"? :D
Yes we can! 👍😎
The best piece of music ever written and this version is so deep !
IT's a beautiful performance...from my piint of view is the best duran's song
It isn't the best piece of music ever written, that is silly
Holy crap!! I still get goosebumps after all these years!
I love this song I never knew that Simon played an instrument
Oh yeah! Not only can he play the ocarina, but he can also play the guitar. He's very talented!!
If I had been of age, and backstage at that show, my last name might be Le Bon right now! Oh my God, that man
within top 10 bands all time
in my book
yes?
One of the best songs world wide.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Spot On! watching Le Bon´s long fingers playing that whistle...it`s made me all hot!!
Excellent version....of a great great track
Amazing performance of an amazing song! Keeps sending me shivers down my spine....
Chills down my spine.. I was born in 1988, and I love the remix Deftones did, which is how I ended up finding this vid.
This shows because they were, are and will be the best forever.
Per sempre meraviglia !!!!
I had such a huge crush on Simon when I was a teenager🥰
Me too. A big crush
greatest 80's song of all time. my first concert was duran duran. they sang all the hits except this one. it was an amazing show. would have been greatest show ever if he would have played the chauffeur
GOD this is beautiful!
Senza tempo...sempre bella ed affascinante ! Everytime is better then before time...
They are A world appart, thanx!!!!!
Epic!!!! My fav Duran track. Mesmerizing..............................

Herederos de la Gran banda Japan.

grandissima voce tecnicamente molto dotato,poco valutato negli anni....questa canzone è meravigliosa ricca di contaminazioni...
The great Duran Duran no limit to their talent the gorgeous Simon 30+ in the business wow why aren't they in themusic hall of fame there's lot less talented groups in there.
The world's greatest band playing the most perfect song ever. #DuranDuran4ever
This brings me back to my 12 year old self
awesome tune, very under-rated i luv it
Something about that man in a hat...GOD.
L'intro jazz che sfuma nel tema della tastiera è cosa buona.
Awesome concert. It feels like the West of the 80's. This and Drive By are the band's best tracks.
This is the song of my life! my favourite song. It thrills me every time that i heard it since 1984 and especially THIS version!
Amoo, me transmite una alegría esta canción
What a tune, loved it in '84/85 and still love it now!!
Simon is the braun, Nick is the brains. Super, SUPER sexy song.
I saw that tour. Erasure opened up. Tempe, AZ '87.
i l♥ve this! Duran Duran are the best!
Thanks for posting!
Saw them at Wembley on this tour. The drummer, Steve Ferrone was just brilliant! Great on this performance too!
WOW!!! They remade their own song. Wouldn't think that such an electro song would work with horns, for example. But the jazzy, noir-ish intro suits the song's mysterious ambience perfectly. Kudos
Excellent
The Chaffeur is a great song on second album. It's cool also Arena live version!
Buen tema
tears of joy. that good.
Everytime It's beautiful
Brilliant live version!!
Charlie cakep sekali.. pantas mengenakan pakaian seperti itu. DURAN DURAN FOREVER.
I would love to be stock in 1988 forever.
Epic!!!!
I've come up with a totaly different story after listening to it closely.
The story is about a weathy woman, her daughter and their Chauffeur.
It starts off as the daughter prefers to sit in the front seat with the chauffeur instead of the back seat with her domineering mother. He notices how lady-like and charming as she sits besides him.

When they finally arrive at the destination the chauffeur opens the door and notices the daughter smiling at him as would lovers. The mother yanks her daughter away and looks at chauffeur with mean and cruel eyes.
As the Chauffeur stands there watching them walk into the distance, leaving him further behind. :) That's the actual story. :)
Caramba além da voz charme e carisma do Simon ele ainda tem mãos lindas ❤️
True i love this song
I believe this is from 1986/87 during the Notorious tour. Simon had long, Michael Hutchence hair by October 1988.
I love love love this song .... i love Durans
Brilliant!!!!!
Love this song so much,1 of my top 3 💕
