Lyrics:
Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
I made a run, I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year, maybe no go
I know you're watching me every minute of the day, yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and pictures
That give your game away, yeah
There's a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cause you don't let it show (ooh)
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind, can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance when you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me, you're about as easy as a nuclear war
There's a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cause you don't let it show
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know? (please, please tell me now)
Is there something I should say? (please, please tell me now)
That would make you come my way (please, please tell me now)
Please, please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow? (please, please tell me now)
Can you see how much I die? (please, please tell me now)
Every time it passes by (please, please tell me now)
Please, please tell me now
What it takes to make you show (please, please tell me now)
Is there something I should know? (please, please tell me now)
Is there something I should say? (please, please tell me now)

This is from John Taylor’s book “In The Pleasure Groove”. JT was actually still playing guitar when Roger Taylor joined - the new drummer’s technique forcing him to adopt a more rhythmic funky style. And then he heard ‘Everybody Dance’ by Chic. The singer at the time ‘Andy Wicket’ just so happened to have a bass lying around... and the rest is history!

Fan in the 80's...fan now. Saw them live last summer. If you get a chance to see them live...DO IT.
When I was a cynical young boy I used to hate the fact that I loved Duran Duran. They were mainstream pop music. I was a punk rock fiend. As I grew older I only loved them more. I grew away from genres and grew to love good music in general. Duran Duran, regardless of how you've made me feel at times the 80s and 90s would have been nothing without you.
Most beautiful men to ever form a band, write their own songs, perform those songs and be brilliant at it. Music critics wanted to portray them as a "boy band" because they just could not stand the fact that they were that talented and also incredibly hot. Sorry haters, they are that good! And if you've never seen them live, I just don't know what to say. Cheers!

Well, musically, the band Japan wrote and performed better music and did the makeup thing better, having true Bowie influence. Yes, they do deserve "boy band" as a label.
Back in the day of songs, bands, albums, instruments. Synthesizers were new, analog, warm, magic. Videos, music stores, album covers, 12” remixes. Dreaming, searching, discovering, collecting. Clothes, concerts, mix tapes, posters, fun. Friends, not phones. Creativity, not content. Smiles, silliness, cool to be young, not grown up too soon. Up late, land lines, waiting until midnight tickets going on sale and speed dialing to get floor seats. Going with best friends at 15 and sneaking wine coolers and dancing. Wouldn’t trade being a teen in the eighties for anything-once in a lifetime experience that truly was better than any other time before or since and this takes me back as if time stopped…

I bumped into the guitarist in a city nearby a few years ago. h He was impeccably dressed. I got talking to him about music since I like playing guitar. He said he used to play guitar in a band. I never knew who he was until someone told me after he had left the building.
These videos might seem "cringe" to today's teens and college students, but many of the visual techniques in DD video like this (the framing, coloring, montages, wipes, use of shadow/light, non-linear micro-speed editing, split screening, etc.) combined to create something entirely new at the time and were a massive influence on videos to come. Granted, Thriller took videos to even greater prominence, but these guys paved the way. And the music still holds up, video or no video.

The world didn't suck; in this song there's a line 'you're about as easy as a nuclear war', and in the early-80s we were so close to one, just like in the Cuban missile crisis or now. And then there was Thatcher and Reagan who started the pernicious neocon agenda that's gobbling up the world's resources (just so that millionaires and billionaires can get even richer), not to mention AIDS and the crack epidemic. Oh, I'm in a happy mood lol. But it's a great song (and video), straight in at number one when it was practically unheard-of.

Not only as you stated, but most people don't realize how well they arrange/structure/layer/blend, harmonize/voice, and much, much more within the confines of pop music. And NOT every song is some brainless love song. When I first heard them in 1982, I couldn't stand their image - but I couldn't deny their ability to write superior pop songs with uber-catchy hooks with a structure that needed many listens to fully appreciate. I tried to not like them for many years - until 1985 when I heard more of Rio . . . I've been hooked since. Peace. >=->

Wow, surreal to hear this. I bought my first DX2 album when I was 12, in 1982. You have loads of great music to explore. Check out the track Secret Oktober, Late Bar, Planet Earth...endless amazing tracks.

It was great. Ronald Reagan was president, just alot of Russia scare of nuclear war. You see in some 80s films like Arnold did , no not terminators. James bond films. Others. Gas was cheap for a time. No cell phones. People were connected, not disconnected like now. Cell phones face book doses not help or work. People were pro America not against it. Cus these people are not Americans.

We had a second British invasion then, the press was all over it, lol.
Here after watching the Netflix documentary on them. Very underrated and underappreciated band . They were and still are great musicians and songwriters. I remember being almost 9 and this video being on heavy rotation on MTV in the summer of 1983. Such a great time to be a kid!
First of all. I am a 55 year old man living in the US and I have been a DD fan since 1982. These guys are brilliant. People can say what they want but the video version of this song carries a different mix of the song than what was released on the single or album, I believe this version is the Bob Clearmountain mix. The version released on the 7" single and LP was the mix they decided to go with after deciding Clearmountain's mix was to soft. Both mixes are great but anyone else see the difference?

I don't remember there being another mix, this is the original that was released in 1983 and went straight to number 1 in the UK charts I remember it well, I was 14 and a big Duran fan already. This song originally didn't appear on any Album until the first album was released in the USA and then this song was added to it, which to us in the UK would have found very odd because in our minds it really didn't belong there. Still a big fan now and always have been with all their ups & downs.

When it came to Duran Duran, there was nothing music fans should know other than the fact this U.K band rocked the music scene worldwide in the Eighties and early Nineties. Four decades ago this song and video were released. It was never fully appreciated for its intrinsic value.
I was a huge Duran Duran fan in high school but I couldn't tell my friends because we all were into Metalica, Rush and Van Halen! I Love Duran Duran! There, I said it.

A really good song and it contains my favorite line(s) in a Duran Duran song: "Don't say you're easy on me, you're about as easy as a nuclear war".
There’s a Dream that Strings the Road,with Broken Glass for Us to Hold…&Fire’y Demons will Dance when you Walk through that Door 😮…Great Lyrics…Great Song 🦾

Kate Deluxe Because of stupid reality television singing contests of contestants that cannot sing and end up in the charts anyway but auto tuned due to their lack of talent. People are only chosen for their looks today and not whether they can sing.
"Here is the secret formula to write the perfect pop song. Use it wisely mwaauuuuaaahhhh...."
I didn't fully appreciate Duran Duran in the 1980's. I was more Punk, Powerpop, and Rockabilly. Then I heard Roxy Music and finally understood Duran Duran's vibe.
I remembered them back When I was 7 years old! 😊
I swear 80s rock is the best decade. Love this song especially love the part where he sings "you're about as easy as a nuclear war". 😄

Love that period of the 80s when synths were integrated into bands. That new wave era, Depeche Mode, Gary Newman, Yazoo, Ultravox and Duran Duran will always be a period I look back fondly. Duran Duran were just so damn good at writing and performing. Roger Taylor's bass tracks really do it for me - he has the funk alright.
