Duran Duran – Rio (From “Rio – Classic Album”)
This latest addition to the acclaimed Classic Albums series takes us to the early eighties and the release of Duran Durans second album Rio. Released against a backdrop of riots, record unemployment and the Falklands War this optimistic and celebratory album would generate a string of hit singles and groundbreaking videos and catapult Duran Duran to global stardom. This DVD tells the story behind the writing, recording and subsequent success of the album through newly filmed interviews, musical demonstrations and both new and archive performances.
Moving on the floor now babe you’re a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it’s very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west
You know you’re something special and you look like you’re the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
I’ve seen you on the beach and I’ve seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I’m sure that you know it’s just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Hey now woo look at that did she nearly run you down
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive alive
I’ll take my chance cause luck is on my side or something
I know what you’re thinking I tell you something I know what you’re thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grand
Her name is Rio she don’t need to understand
And I might find her if I’m looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

やはり肝はROGER TAILORのDRUMですね。タイトで疾走感が半端なく上手い!!
wrong type of bass for that part … it loses a lot … the tone isn't there
Just when I think I can't love Simon Le Bon any more than already do:
1. He wears a white shirt (how heart-breakingly handsome is he?)
2. He comes up with the genius idea of counting down "um, dois , três, quatro!" in Portuguese
and with real instruments – missin' the 80's
Música maneira pra caralho, gostei da linha de baixo
Un, dos, tres, cuatro.
…turn up that bass
Funny how they’ve edited Andy out of this performance
JOHN TAYLOR IS A BEAST PLAYER!!!
