Haha yep! :yep: omg really? Thats just rediculous (and quite funny :lol:) if i aak someone to explain something id like them to be thorough, not justva 2 second answer! :rofl:

Ahh dont worry about it - i log off at 9ish anyways! :smile:


yeah :lol: i could talk for ages if i feel conformable with the people i'm with :tongue:

okay :smile:


that live version is really good :biggrin:
but i think my favourite live song from duran duran is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdYVHxoMNDs

Haha yeah! The early ones are the best! (Or so i find anyways) Very early performances of bands tend yo be very lively and more what you would expect from a live concert - i tend to find when bands progress and get very famous, they also begin to try to hard to please a crowd.

Yep £1!! I dont think there is a link to on youtube (tho i shall have a look) as its a BBC concert, but i shall have a search! :biggrin:

It doesnt say, but i think this is a section of that concert, the versions of the songs are the same anyways :smile:

https://youtu.be/NOggEK1Thao


I think that's usually the case. Yeah I know what you mean... U2 were even doing it early on, but it can get slightly irritating with Bono always trying to do some daring thing at a concert, you know? :tongue: Like he's always climbing scaffoldings :rofl: Still though, they were an amazing live band.

That's so cool :tongue:

I enjoyed that :smile: I think I like early Duran Duran the best :tongue: I like the early outfits XD I have an early performance for you in return:

Ive never been a U2 fan really, but i get what you mean about about Bono :lol: hes just one of those people who genuinly annoys me for some reason :rofl: i find him a bit.... Of a try hard :lol:

Same actually! Their 1981 performancea (live and totp) were the best ones, the set lists were so good! And i agree about the the outfits/styles :rofl:

I liked that early(?) Crocodiles version, a tiny part (well a reasonably sized part) of me would quite liked to have seen them in their hay-day.... How awesome would that be?!

Awesome :smile: They were so influential...

I've only listened to their first album. I don't actually know any of the ones you posted (other than Sunday Morning) (oddly :tongue:) so I'd prefer to wait until I hear them for the first time on the albums rather than listen now. More special that way, you know :smile:

Hahaha i feel a bit mean doing a McCulloch on him, U2 were (are) obviously very popular!
Haha oh right! He's so baby faced in it, so i thought it may be an early one :lol:

Haha duh :tongue: i would have died of shock if youd have said 'actually i prefer Wham now) :rofl: hahaha ikr!!
i still plan on seeing some 'older' bands when im at uni (hopefully) - Rolling Stones are at the top but it will break my uni bugdet :lol:

PS after a bit of searching I found half of The Hammersmith concert - I think the songs on this particular video are the best ones!

Haha I know what you mean though :lol: Some of the stuff he does can be a bit cringe-worthy :rofl:
Haha ah I see :tongue: It's also from 1980, and they only formed the year before, so it is early yeah :smile:

:rofl:
Cool :smile: Hopefully you can. That would be so cool! My dad mentioned about one day seeing The Who (even though there's obviously only two original members left). You just don't think you'll ever see these massive bands, but it would be great... I'd also like to see Suede and The Cure. U2 too, but that might be unlikely :tongue:

Awesome :smile: I saw that you posted this in the music thread. I was going to comment on it. I listened to a bit of Friends Of Mine at the start. I think that's one of my favourite Duran Duran songs, along with Careless Memories. I've bookmarked it to watch later :smile: I'll let you know what I think of it when I get around to watching it :tongue:

The La's... That album is fantastic :smile: Every song is great. A perfect album.

I have Nick Drake's three albums :smile: Listened to the first one so far.

OMD are also good :biggrin: I have their first 4 albums. As are Tears for Fears, I have their three albums too.

And The Cars are awesome :biggrin:

I really like this Moody Blues song

Yeah :tongue: It was a while ago though :tongue:

I agree :smile: I think Echo and the Bunnymen deserve more recognition... Ian McCulloch was doing the loudmouth thing before Liam Gallagher was :rofl:

yes :h: there she goes is a classic though

nick drake is amazing :biggrin: a friend introduced me to him and i couldn't stop listening to him for weeks on end... i don't know if you know but his first album is the only one he completed in his life time (he pasted away really early, mid to late 20s think it was :cry2:) and it's the most perfect i think... the others just don't live up to the expectation (well, that's my opinion anyways :tongue:) his first album is pink moon i think btw

mod are great :smile: my favourite's are 'sailing on the seven seas' and 'walking on the milky way'

tears for fears are definatly one of my most favourite bands too :h: shout, mad world, everybody wants to rule the world and head over heals are the best in my opinion :tongue:

the cars are wonderful too :biggrin: they are the best band to listen to in the car :rofl: like on a road trip or something...

the moody blues song is great :smile:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=062qph0IqYE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9muzyOd4Lh8
these are are my favourites :smile: let me know what you think

an hour and a half of greatness... probably :tongue: (i didn't actually listen to it - will listen to it tomorrow, it is a little late now :yawn: sorry)
