I like how she doesn't put her hand up immediately after he says her name. Its only when he asks a second time. To be fair, it must have been kind of frightening having some large man dressed as knight, sword out, busting through the door demanding her to show herself, added to the fact she couldn't see his face and didn't know who he was.

How was the whole thing set up back then? Do you know? I have always been curious since I first saw this video many years ago.

They have always been friendly with fans. Back in 1990 Simon actually got in the passengers side of my car at Roy Rodgers in the Woodbridge NJ travel plaza and leaned across the seat and drew a mural of a "mermaid with big knockers". Then a friend came walking up with John Taylor who also got in the passengers seat after asking me to hold his cup of coffee and autographed my dashboard. Was like a dream.

credo che simon sia tanto simpatico oltre a essere un cantante straordinario w i duran duran hallo

If you look closely she was kinda nervously giggling. Now if that was me at that time, they would have to revive me because I would've fainted straight away!

i like John more but in this footage simon looks freaking gorgeous!

This was awesome!!! Simon was my favorite until he got married (the funny things you feel as a teenager), so I would've been dumbfounded.
