Save a prayer for the 80's

One of my favorite Duran Duran songs.

I remember the night I saw this onTV , during my senior year of high school at a VCR at a friend's house.

It was at the 80's , when VCR's were very rare nd only the wealthy people have it...

This is from the "Sing Blue Silver" tour documentary...

I light my torch and wave it for the new moon on Monday

Back in the 80's , this song attracted me to the band.

I think I remember Simon saying that this is one of the hardest songs to sing.

Maybe I can catch a ride :)

Simon Le-Bon sour note at Live Aid 1985...

I just remembered hearing a sour note during the Live Aid show, and I searched for "duran duran live aid" and this video was the first one that popped up!

Watch Andy Taylor's reaction to the cracked note....

This clip doesn't appear on the dvd boxset of the concert.

Simon Le Bon - Israeli roots...

Well , I want to share with you the fact that Simon Le Bon was a volunter in the kibbutz Gvulot in the Negev desert in Israel in 1978.

That fact was not so known back at the 80's , and as a matter of fact came outside in an interview at the Rolling Stone magazine in 1987.

Simon liked Israel , and he came back to perform in Israel at 1998.

We were there.

It was fantastic !!!
