This is one of Duran Duran's first music video. Before Girls on Film and Hungry like a Wolf. They filmed this probably in mid or late 1981 or in the spring of 1982. Not really sure on this, just a random guess. It doesn't matter anyways. So I like this video it's one of the rare ones, just like the Nite Boat, well not as rare as the Nite Boat because you can barely find the Nite Boat one on Youtube. But I like this video because it's just the fact that the main girl is running from Simon le Bon, the front man and running into the arms of John Taylor, the pin up guy for the band through out the 80's. It looks like the song is about a break up or just someone going behind your back and lying about not cheating on you. That how I take it because the girl is running to John secretively without Simon knowing. I have no idea what the other three are doing in this music video. Just randomly in the background just to be there. I would've given them more stuff to do, heck just give them girls to hang out with. I wonder what the photographs Rodger Taylor, Nick Rhodes and possibly Andy Taylor where looking at. Past girlfriends or past memories of them as a group of friends. Who knows?! They should've thought this music video out a bit more, in my opinion.
