I absolutly agree with you , nothing can push "DuranDuran " from the Nr.1...👍😎👍...and "A View to a Kill " has the best "BondPowerwomen" we ever seen Grace Jones!!
This mix is a masterpiece as the beginning and the very end gives you a traditional '60s bond while simultaneously providing you with the '80s Duran Duran vibes we all know and love when it gets going 🎅🏾
This the music from John Barry (not sure who came first with the theme, the band or Barry), it was on the B side of Duran Duran's single. th-cam.com/video/ndjckQHx0h4/w-d-xo.html
It's just a blessing that the mediocrity of the titular film doesn't tarnish the song. Christopher Walken playing Christopher Walken mitigates somewhat but for every CW you've got a Grace Jones and a Tanya Roberts. Gratuitous miscasting abounds. Even Roger Moore was miscast at this point unfortunately.
I never understood what a bad ass bassist John Taylor was until I started playing bass myself. The whole pretty boy thing overshadowed the fact that these guys were amazing musicians.
One of the members of Duran Duran was a huge Bond fan and while drunk went up to Cubby Broccoli and said "When the f&^k are you gonna get a real band to do a Bond song for you?" Hence came this amazing classic. Amazing what happens when you put talent and respect for the source material together.
That was John Taylor, He was also the one who did not want the song remixed or extended to keep it pure, he stated he regreted not having it remixed. But the group had secretly gone behind his back in 1985 and made a remix/extended mix. But it was never officially released. until few years ago it was put out on a bootleg album as 12". It has a few differences to the single/movie version. Different chords in one place & and the Drum beat is slightly different. Probably remixed from original demos or first cuts of the song (when John wasn't around) so that remix sounds like a rough cut but Still sounds good.
this extended version captures all the excitement of all Bond Movies put together. For true Bond fans, we can actually see film footage clips in our minds while listening to this masterpiece.
Hey Michelle . I grew up with Duran Duran @ the High School Disco . They were such an innovative band in the early 80`s and still going strong now in the 21st Century .
Duran Duran was cutting edge and way ahead of their time. Couple that with one of the best James Bond Intro songs, and mix it like this, in a word, perfection! A+
Stefanos. That's an excellent idea, Duran doing TWO songs, a ballad AND an up-tempo number. A View to a Kill is perhaps Duran's best recording imho, especially this particular version. To me, this version rivals or even surpasses the aural aesthetic of what was achieved with the Arcadia album, the So Red the Rose.
Jesus that was fucking amazing. The eighties truly was the best of times. I wish someone would invent a time machine already so that I could move back there permanently. This modern world you can keep. My soul is in the eighties. That flute section at the end. Just heaven.
Absolutely. The Music Out Now In 2021 I Refuse To Hear Today. The 80s Are So Much Better In Music Vs Now In 2021. I Prefer The 80s For Music Anyday. The 80s Were Great And Timeless For Music, Television, And Movies. 2021 Not So Much.
Roger Taylor on the Drums...Seriously underrated musicians because they were all good looking too...girls used to go crazy for them...they still rock, Many great songs
We have a lot of respect for the 60s but all us kids that were born in the 60s made it better in the 80s take a look at Michael isn't he the best of all for eternity.All of them after him are just a joke .
I've got to be honest - I'm not a huge Duran Duran fan. But i have always loved this song. It is the best song of their career in my view, and one of the very best Bond themes. 10/10
planet earth girls on film save a prayer rio etc, Duran Duran along with Human League, Gary Newman and Depeche Mode/Yazoo created the platform for 80's pop
@@stevenjohnson7442 ... indeed. Just because you CAN extend certain parts doesn't mean you SHOULD! This song is bombastic as it is, and you have to be careful because of that, if you're going to extend it.
@@donniehagy970 Agreed. Especially after hearing the remix that was made by Steve Thompson but never released. The percussion on the Thompson mix (apparently approved by both the band and EMI but soon after rejected) is WAY too busy and incredibly distracting and it brings nothing to the table. This fan made version is simply extended, it includes parts of the instrumental B-Side, and that what makes it good. That famous Barry melody is all over this mix. I love it.
BEEN A DURANY SINCE 1982 IM 55 NOW SEEN EM 7 TIMES JUST GOT THE BUG WHEN I WAS A KID NOT IN BEST SHAPE NOW BUT THESE BOYS ROCK SO GLAD ANDY TAYLOR HAS FOUND SOME HELP WITH HIS DREADFUL ILLNESS THIS MIX IS BOSS ❤️❤️❤️❤️🎸🎸🎸🎸
Can we appreciate Roger's majestic, yet underrated drumming?? I love how this song just lets it shine! I love how it slows down at the end just before the beautiful flute comes in :D
I always loved the drums in this song, and the beginning of this version is fantastic. John and Roger Taylor are the most underappreciated rythym section in music.
What more can you ask: the BEST Bond song, KUDOS DURAN DURANNN,. with the GREATEST JAMES BOND EVER, SIR ROGER MOORE, REST IN PEACE ... THE QUINTESSENTIAL GENTLEMAN ASSASSIN, FOR QUEEN AND COUNTRY!
Patience. Jesus Christ a.s. isn't done with the ASSWIPES who made his Life difficult by choosing to manipulate him and turn his children against him and stole his wealth etc.etc. The Jinns/Demons who were allowed to escape Nazi Germany 🇩🇪 Aaliand her Goddamn family along with others.

A lot of truth to that statement.
Ain't that the truth??!!!❤😂😂😂

Always
Only the music.

We all secretly know this is the best version of the best James Bond song, in the best era for music. I mean, that’s why we came here.
STILL A BANGER (2024)
A criminally underrated bond film, with arguably the best ending to a bond film, and undeniably the best soundtrack to a bond film...
Hi I recommend a song Called 'The Bond villain' By Robert Nix
A View to a Kill? A View to a Thrill!
"A View to a Kill, Missus". Frankie Howerd. Best Bond that never was.
Best Bond tune ever made!! ❤
It has always been my favourite!
Duran Duran produced the best bond theme of all time
I know right.
I Agree. This Song Is Awesome. Duran Duran Is One Of Those Best 80s Bands Of All Time In The 80s Decade.

No song ever captured the excitement, the stylishness and exoticism of James Bond better than A View To A Kill by Duran Duran.

much better sound than the one of now! no comparison allowed!

i love the way the beginning starts on the song.
This whole song is on fire. I love Duran Duran!
A View to A Kill and The Living Daylights are great movies with great theme songs. Two of my favorites.
thank God for giving us duran duran
They are one of the best bands of all time!
Better than the Beatles?
*facepalm*
Hell yeah- The Greatest Band on Earth ❤️❤️❤️
No need to compare..they're both britain a nd great bands of all time..in different times.
I love this flute in the end💜💜💜
I have also a big flute lol
Yes this 007 theme is the greatest of all the Bond films!
The flute is so soothing and peaceful
amids the heavy drumming, pure genius!
Sorrowful IMHO...
It was Ron Burgundy in studio...jk 😊😅
Still listening to this in June 2021 and will be listening to it in 2041 too, if Im still alive😆. A classic!

By far the greatest James Bond theme song.
The flute is so cool, wow.
Sir Roger,what a typical English gentleman he was and the Duran boys were just awesome rip sir Roger Moore
Best bond in my opinion !
Summer of 1985. Duran Duran's second #1 US single. The first was "The Reflex".
my god, this unbelievably good.
Best Bond song.
Agreed.
ahahah so true
PAUL FT damn that ending was heart touching
Got to agree
Duran Duran deserves another Bond song .

After all these years this is still the best #1 bond song ever made 🏆
100 %
Love duran duran,God I miss the hot summers of the 80s and the music.such good times.😊
True, true and double true! 👊🏻😎
Roger Moore is my favorite bond. Also he is a saint. 😎

Yes!!!!!
i will come with you i totally agree with you 100%
Me too 😎
The first Bond theme to go to #1 on Billboards HOT 💯
They need to add this to their singles collections.
Duran Duran should perform extended versions when performing in life concerts .
