One of the most underrated songs and musicians in the history of music. All original members of DD are legends and produced some of the best alternative, pop rock, and new wave music ever.
Yes I agree the album from Arcadia was underrated and not as well-known as much as DD, but Duran Duran was HUGE back then and all over Mtv and not underrated at all. They had worldwide fame and fans! :)
Mega artisti : Simon Le Bon grande voce e grande mimica e presenza sul palco, Nick Rhodes un creatore di suoni ed atmosfere con le tastiere a livello top. Eppure li consideravano musichetta per ragazzine che durava una stagione, i mass media !
@@mkbashlorthecaredriver9517 I'm sorry for you he has an Italian partner, to be precise she is Sicilian, her name is Nefer, they live together in London 😁😁😁😁😁
I remember buying this album So Red The Rose in 1985 and memorizing the lyrics to most of the songs. Great album with songs I still love! Goodbye is forever! Health and happiness all! ✌🏼
I duran duran son stati l'ultimo gruppo nella storia della musica e nella storia del 900 ad aver lasciato un vero sogno, un'epoca unica ricca di colori, di magia e di quel qualcosa che non è certo frutto del caso ma bensì dell estro e del talento che li ha resi unici e irripetibili...❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Until this day I didn't know that there wasn't anything more shining than Nick Rhodes' smile... I can't even blink...and Simon LeBon was at this best performance, one of his best performances ever!
I couldn't agree more. A few years ago I kept saying that they should've done a series of intimate small venue shows, playing So Red the Rose in its entirety.🖤 I need an Arcadia follow up album. I still jam SRTR on my drives. Especially in Autumn.
As Arcadia where Simon, Nick and Roger I would like to think JT would be more than happy to play bass on an Arcadia tour as there are some brilliant bass parts on So Red the Rose..
He still moves pretty well today but back then he was kind of ripping off Daryl halls moves. Go watch, can't go for that and out of touch by hall and oats. Daryl hall was an amazing dancer, great singer and phenomenal piano/keyboard player too.
@@ColtraneTaylor He had his own style but I think he borrowed as many people do. You can see it also in his Arcadia video Election Day. Clearly got some of the ideas from Daryl Hall, not as good as Daryl hall of course. Daryl was clearly trained how to dance and do it all really. Very smart guy.
@@a_ya5555 Trained to dance? What kind? How about Arena, like in New Religion, where does Simon's moves come from? I've always wondered about those starting dance moves.
Tienes razón no son fruto de la suerte ni la casualidad sino trabajo duro, constante estudio de la música, fortaleza mental y física para soportar las críticas de los periodistas, mucha creatividad por parte de simon que estudio música y le permite escribir bellas canciones tan atinadas que ahora son himnos mundiales más lo guapísimos que son y esos ojasos azules guaooooo ❤💋❤💋💋💋
I am sick with the flu and this video put a big smile on my face. I was born in 1976, so Duran Duran is my #1 favorite Band. The Arcadia Era with Simon, Nick, and Roger (at the very beginning) was awesome. This video is so cool. Nick was smiling a lot!
Che bello che era il nostro paese in quei tempi. C’era sicurezza, prospettiva, futuro…. a vedere oggi come sono ridotte le nostre città mi viene da vomitare.
From my home town (nick and john) always been a duranie always will be … great to see this especially as simon talks about his next leg on the whitbread race which almost took his and his crews life… Arcadia was fantastic amazing music
I remember being so heart broken when Nick got married. Saw the pictures in a teen magazine when I was grocery shopping with my mom. What devastation for a little girl! lol
Both brilliant awesome amazing nick Rhodes mastermind behind Duran Duran luv um after 40 years plus experience of music 🎵 and this Arcadia project should av been a Duran Duran album
Nick's smile is all the money. Such a gorgeous creature! 😍😍 So glad they eventually reunited with Roger and John Taylor. It feels completely wrong when they are separated from each other!
Nick dragged that huge Fairlight to this backing track lip sync performance? He could’ve just set up any old synth on a stand and faked it. I guess he actually wanted an accurate representation of the actual gear he used for Arcadia. Nick’s a legend.
A lot of people saying this is Duran Duran era trying to be “goth” it wasn’t. Arcadia came about because JT and AT left and formed power station , the three remaining Duran Duran members SLB , RT and NR felt it was the end of Duran Duran so they formed Arcadia and by changing the music style (Arcadia’s music is totally different than anything Duran Duran did and sounded before) and the reason they dyed their hair black and wore black was to signify to JT and AT the death of Duran Duran . Arcadia was recording a second album which never was released or finished but elements from that second album made it to Notorious years later when Duran Duran reformed , example “American Science” was one of the left over elements from Arcadia.
Wow, fascinating. Isn't it interesting how bands evolve over time? At that time, they had no clue that years later all the DD guys would reunite, and still be playing music into the 21st century, with a new album coming out in 2021! I am not surprised though, because I always felt they were light years ahead of everyone else, and they still are. The new song video they premiered a couple days ago was created with the collaboration of AI, which produced video images based upon the song lyrics and emotional tone. How cool is that? :)
Not so sure about the black hair dye signaling the death of Duran Duran. In an in-studio MTV interview before the release of the Arcadia album, Simon mentioned how they all planned to use elements of their new sounds when they reunited as Duran Duran.
Nothing wrong with The Powerstation. Seen the video to "Some like it hot." Both AT and JT in it, looking like they're having a blast with the late Robert Palmer. If you go on TH-cam and search Duran Duran, download mix and you'll see The Powerstation songs. They've got the Duran Duran logo. You could almost say that both Arcadia and The Powerstation are offshoots of Duran Duran. Artists sometimes like to experiment. Roger Taylor or Freddie Mercury once said that Queen would always take priority but they did occasionally like to do something solo or collaborate with another artist as Freddie did with the Spanish opera singer Montserrat Caballé.
So red the Rose is such a forgotten and underrated record.. is actually one of my favorite albums - my others favorites are Power Windows (RUSH) and Astra (Asia).
Anyone realised how exclusive this performance is? They actually perform "The Flame", long before it was officially issued as a single and therefore here broadcast in the original LP version and not as the 7"version, mixed by Nile Rodgers. Until the end of the times we will always wonder and left with the eternal question:"Was this done on purpose?" I guess we'll never know...🤔
I had no idea that there were ever any live performances from Arcadia. I always wondered if any of the Arcadia songs had been performed by Duran Duran on tour later.
Arcadia released one album but no live concerts, only tv shows (lip-synch). They never meant to do a tour or live shows, just that one album as opposed to The Powe Station which did some live gigs across the US.
Che bei tempi. Il delirio ❤ Oggi si esalta il Nulla!
One of the most underrated songs and musicians in the history of music. All original members of DD are legends and produced some of the best alternative, pop rock, and new wave music ever.
No I don't think it was rated low the time actually

Esatto , sottovalutati in quel senso
Love to see Nick’s smile 🥰
Simon y Nick , que hombres tan elegantes!!!👏
Nick's smile still melts my heart, all these years later. He's painfully beautiful.
This is my favorite way he ever wore his hair!
He's such a lovely guy too
I'll still fight you for him Jodi ha ha. Do you know if he is single?
Jodi Sevigny You're right

l'ho visto in diretta sulla Rai, avrei voluto essere lì, i miei Duran/Arcadia non muoiono MAI
Anch'io! Me lo ricordo come fosse oggi!😍

D'accordissimo mitici nel tempo leggendari!!🥰
Para mí el mejor grupo funky de la historia
Durán Durán siempre van conmigo
Sono grandi 👍 e canzoni fantastiche 👍👍👍

"Election Day" was #1 in Italy for 7 weeks.
Yeap !!!!!
ONLY few day in america !!!!!
Gr8 clip
This just typifies how enormously famous they were.And this is just two of the five.
This is chaotic and hilarious. Nick can't keep a straight face lol
Lo mejor de Duran-Duran es Arcadia....lo maximo.
I remember that saturday evening watching Fantastico.
What I would die to see an Arcadia reunion in the form of a tour. I would DIE.
I'd kill just to get an Arcadia T shirt.
I couldn't agree more. A few years ago I kept saying that they should've done a series of intimate small venue shows, playing So Red the Rose in its entirety.🖤
I need an Arcadia follow up album. I still jam SRTR on my drives. Especially in Autumn.
@@resa.walters I found the vinyl album at a record store a few years back! It’s awesome! (Had the CD back in the 80’s-90’s!)
As Arcadia where Simon, Nick and Roger I would like to think JT would be more than happy to play bass on an Arcadia tour as there are some brilliant bass parts on So Red the Rose..
They should dedicate part of a Duran tour to Arcadia songs. And a little Power Station.
Simon had some of his coolest moves on stage during this time period
Now he can't move 😂
He still moves pretty well today but back then he was kind of ripping off Daryl halls moves. Go watch, can't go for that and out of touch by hall and oats. Daryl hall was an amazing dancer, great singer and phenomenal piano/keyboard player too.
@@a_ya5555 Heh heh. I think Simon was forever ripping others off. Thanks for informing about who it was.

@@a_ya5555 Trained to dance? What kind? How about Arena, like in New Religion, where does Simon's moves come from? I've always wondered about those starting dance moves.
Simon has always considered Nick as his best friend of his life. Nick is wonderful, beautiful inside and out. How can you not love him. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Ask Andy
@@jeffd5310 I miss Andy....
I don’t miss Andy but I would have Warren back tomorrow. Him and Nick work wonderfully together.
@@jeffgreen7629 I believe they were better with Andy or Warren than without but it looks like Andy's health is going to prevent his return.
@Jeff Green I liked Warren over Andy too.

Hanno, segnato un epoca un periodo fantastico della nostra giovinezza,che dire i Duran Duran erano unici grande gruppo Simon le bon grande voce
I was just jamming this tune last night on my drive down Sunset Blvd.
Not a very happening place musically anymore is it?

DD is my fav band too. Theyre best band in music history
They are the best and always will be Duran Duran
Arcadia for ever
Che bello che era il nostro paese in quei tempi. C’era sicurezza, prospettiva, futuro…. a vedere oggi come sono ridotte le nostre città mi viene da vomitare.
cosa c'entra?
Me encanta está música y no soy de esa época! Muy buenala música de los 80s!
From my home town (nick and john) always been a duranie always will be … great to see this especially as simon talks about his next leg on the whitbread race which almost took his and his crews life…
Arcadia was fantastic amazing music
Love this song sm, and Nick you are absolutely gorgeous!
It’s like the Beatles coming to America in the 1960s!😅😍
Absolutely Beatlemania with Duran Duran. That was their undoing for a bit.
Allbum strabello e la voce d grace Jones ci stava da paura , ke meraviglia!!!! 👍❤️
oh to be a teenager,the love is intense
Grandissimo Gruppo!!!
So beautiful.
I remember being so heart broken when Nick got married. Saw the pictures in a teen magazine when I was grocery shopping with my mom. What devastation for a little girl! lol
Ah, I was there too... sweet memories.
Quanti bellissimi ricordi...
Cuando la vista solo puede estar dirigida hacia Nick ....que hipnotizante es ese chico diosssssss.
My eyes just see to Nick and his smile!!!!!!
What a great video! Thanks for posting.
Both brilliant awesome amazing nick Rhodes mastermind behind Duran Duran luv um after 40 years plus experience of music 🎵 and this Arcadia project should av been a Duran Duran album
Recuerdo ese proyecto musical solo hicieron un trabajo musical y regresaron a duran duran...gran recuerdo 😃

They were so cute when they were being 'goth'. Hehehe. Far too happy, funny, sparkly, and smiley. I loved this era in their career.
Happy goths are the best ! ☺️
Nick pulled it off better than most kids try to do these days
Nick dragged that huge Fairlight to this backing track lip sync performance? He could’ve just set up any old synth on a stand and faked it. I guess he actually wanted an accurate representation of the actual gear he used for Arcadia. Nick’s a legend.
Plus, Fairlights looked effin' cool!
Grazie per aver pubblicato questo video!!
sempre mitici
Musica anni 80. 💯
Bana müziği sevdiren adam SİMON LE BON, bizim donemim efsane gurubu
Vero 👌👍 , li ho sempre amati fin da ragazzina 🎹 🎸🎤 🎶 ❤ 🌻 😊 !
Look at that crowd lose their shit🤣🤣💓💓
Bellissimi❤❤❤❤
I have the same hair now as Nick here. Thanks Covid!
😂 sorry, not funny but I can laugh as I do too...
O cabelo dele era lindo...💖
I was so in love with Nick 😅
nick eyes are the eyes of elizabeh taylor jaja
He so looked like her with the jet black hair.
I love Nick's black hair. I wish he'd kept it.
The chase at the end though.
That was kind of scary, especially for Nick, since he was in the back.😅

That's the first time I've seen Nick not wearing bright colours.
Host is a total legend
😢😢😢😢😢la mia adolescenza 😢😢😢😢😢che nn ritorna più 😂😂😂😂
So red the Rose is such a forgotten and underrated record.. is actually one of my favorite albums - my others favorites are Power Windows (RUSH) and Astra (Asia).
❤️
La ragazza con la gonna rossa ha avuto il coraggio e la pazzia di scappare dagli spalti e mettersi davanti a loro. Resterà nella storia.
Intense!
Wow, very cool performance! Would be nice to have an English translation though :)
Italian chaos at its best
Nick's make-up is perfect.
Ammazza che domande impegnate!!!! 😂😂😂
Comunque inarrivabili per i nostri giorni
First time I see this. I love this album so much! Was one of the girls back there Nick's wife? Looks like Julie.
Th is is fucking excellent thank you for the upload.
Nick es bello, pero se extraña a John Taylor.
Arcadia had some good lyrics - “impale neon flickers… she moon, she turning away…” 😆😆

The best version is the video version
I had no idea that there were ever any live performances from Arcadia. I always wondered if any of the Arcadia songs had been performed by Duran Duran on tour later.
This is lip synced to the studio version, not really live.
non hanno mai fatto concerti come Arcadia
God, I love Italian Women
Is there any real live presentation? I can't find any, and I don't want a playback version. Has anybody seen a live concert? Thanks!
Arcadia released one album but no live concerts, only tv shows (lip-synch). They never meant to do a tour or live shows, just that one album as opposed to The Powe Station which did some live gigs across the US.
@@aba1791 oh ok. Thanks a lot =)
non fecero concerti come Arcadia. Come Duran Duran suonarono alcune canzoni di So Red the rose al Live Aid nel 1985
Nick trying to maintain a mean and moody demeanour but failing miserably (and gloriously)!
Nick, Elizabeth Taylor look? LOL
Careful of the Fairlight, kids!
Great spinoff.
Se non erro, l’interprete/traduttore è il compianto Richard Benson. R.i.P.
Scherzi!?
Richard Benson?😮
In effetti l'accento c'è!🤩
E eu escutei dizerem gostoso ? Ah , Simon , le bon, faz jus ao " nome"
Durán durán después arcardia
Simon e Nick in versione Dark ,adoro specie Nick ricorda Gallup dei Cure
Wonder what they would sound like live?
Pretty much the same. 😊
lmao... and they hated the video for "New Moon On Monday" because of the "dancing at the end"...
Where was Roger
aveva suonato nell'album e risultava componente della band, ma non appariva nei video e nelle ospitate TV
I am convinced this album is better than any of the DD ones.
This is an excellent album. Notorious and Wedding albums, in my opinion, are the best albums these guys ever made.
Is it in Chezcoslovaquia?
Italy
The HATIES (80ies) 😎😎😎
бедный Ник его парень схватил
Simon is the original Scott Weiland - watch the beginning.
I know it's Rome & they were part of Duran, but did they think it's the 2nd coming? Crazy paninari.
