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)

@Nigel-Webb 4 роки тому
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!

I'm only 22 but I've been listening to Duran Duran off-handedly since I was around 16 up until this year actually. They've now quickly become one of my favorites and I've gotten my mom back into them too since I got some of the CDs. This past August, me and her had gone to see them both for the first time! She was a big fan when she was around 14, but was never able to see them then, so it truly was one of the coolest times of my life ever, it meant alot.

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. >=->

In the early Spring of 1983, I was 18 and I remember the telephone rang and when I picked it up a music survey company asked me to listen to 20 second clips of different songs and then asked if I had ever heard them before or if I knew who the artists were. Out of the 10 or so songs, I distinctly remember that this one stood out. So much so, that I wrote it down. After the call I went out on a search to find out where I could get it. The search ended at The House of Guitars with a fresh piece of vinyl! Fantastic to see that Duran Duran is still around creating relevant well-crafted music. We need to clone the 80's and have another run!Cheers!

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.

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.

The minute I hear this I'm transported back to the 80s. It's amazing how strong auditory memories are! I remember feeling so young and so far away as an American fan. I remember the fan letter I wrote to Duran Duran but given the era never got a response. It just goes to show how much the world has changed.

+Copacetic It was more pushed by the media than actually liked. Those making videos decided, just as the corporate folks decide what color and style is in this fall of 2015. I believe Duran Duran had little to do with the images in this video. However, the videos for Rio and Hungry like a Wolf were very innovative and I feel even today are awesome.

I discovered this song watching the vH1 behind the music episode in HS (late 90's early 2000's) . So, I added it to download in college and put it on a mix CD in the fall of 2001. It was on my computer playlist and a mix CD I loved to listen to while doing cardio. At the time (freshman year of college) there was a guy I met my first semester of freshman year who I wasn't sure if he was in to me or not (he gave me mixed signals the whole semester) this song always made me think of him. Lol, at the end of the semester he asked me out on what I THOUGHT was a date to a fast food restaurant and didn't pay for my food, so I finally got my answer😂. I think of that back and forth every time I hear this song. The burned CD from college with this song was one of my favorites and now it's on my Spotify playlist. Long story but this song will forever make me think of my freshman year of college first semester, wandering if someone liked me or not. After months of mixed signals I'm pretty sure they didn't 😂

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.

When I was very young, maybe 7 or 8 years old, I always viewed Simon as a sort of a male role model for me because I viewed him as someone that I could look up to and admire. Actually, I used to look at Simon and think to myself "I want to do that! I want to be a great rock musician and travel the world just like he does!"! I was, and still am, really quite in awe of him because my dad wasn't an especially great role model and anybody that I wanted to model my life after. My mom at first didn't really understand the attraction but she now knows that her daughter is a Duranie and will stay Simon Le Bon's #1 fan and ardent admirer.

OMG! I agree a billion percent. It's odd to me how it's not recognized as much among true Duran fans, particularly here in the US. It was an instant #1 smash in the UK upon release, so, I would imagine there are more people who rate this their favorite Duran Duran song. I'm still obsessed with it today in 2022 as I was when I first heard it as a high school kid in 1983. I could not listen to it enough and I had no problem making sure everyone I hung out with were exposed to it as well and I would completely go into overdrive making sure to point out how amazing the sound of the record was, how new, how perfectly produced, how clean and crisp the synths, bass and drums sounded (Roger Taylor was amazing on drums on this track). BEST Duran Duran song EVER!!!!
