I was just telling my husband last night that mostly thier live stuff is better than the studio versions- he doubted me, but listing to this again, I totally back up last nights statement :) Got this on cassette at age 9, now I'm 48 ❤
God bless my parents. When I got this for a Christmas gift in 1984, they played it in the car for me from Arizona and back. God bless Duran Duran for the music, the memories and the smiles.
You know they are still around. They are about to release a single any day now (before John's birthday? Also, album number 15 is about to drop as well. Some albums to check out if you have been out of the loop would be Astronaut and All You Need is Now. They haven't lost their magic.
Written in 1976 or 78 but not released until 1982, this song was YEARS ahead of it's time. Every electronica band today should credit this song for paving the path. This isn't the best version I've heard of it (live?), but it's still a phenomenal song. Thank you for posting.
So beautiful song! It brings tears in my eyes...I used to listen to it again and again and again.... ARENA is my favourite album!!!.... Wish I could go back to those lovely years! SO GREAT MUSIC! So great band!
i listen to this song all the time in my car i allways turn only this one song to full blast im starting think that this is the best song i have ever heard so far! Thumbs Up If You Agree!
This song got me through secondary school from 1985-1988. I put my headphones on and floated away. I was bullied by girls in my class for being pretty. 2022 and my 18 year old son loves it too. Thank you Duran Duran. ❤️
One of the songs that was on my car stereo on the day I met my lovely wife, Shelley. 30 plus years later and I still love her. She still makes me smile.
duran at their very best simply amazing should play this at every concert they have been there all my life they are without doubt the best band sing blue silver
Now, my friends, have you seen the film 'Drive', starring Ryan Gosling? What you're listening to RIGHT NOW should have been the song playing during the introduction! Or at least SOMEWHERE in the film!
Yes, better than the studio album. And the flute at the end of the song reminds me of the flute that the Gelflings play in the Dark Crystal. 80’s nostalgia
This song will always take me back to the time when i discovered it: January of 2000. I was madly in love with my first "girlfriend", Elisa...and I'd listen to this when taking the bus trip across UofM campus to see her.
The chaffeur ainda o melhor som do Duran Duran aí que quebra mesmo essas porcarias de hoje em dia vix apavora Duran Duran clássico de verdade pra todos nós fãs de sons verdadeiros
My favourite DD song. Arena's version is wonderful. I bought this album when I was 15. Now I'm 52 and I still love it.
Recorded the arena video on VHS when I was 16 Walter now I'm 53

Me too.
Good sound the only problem is Simon's voice..
Lol I was 14 now 49. The best version of the best song. I never have had the pleasure however of dancing to this with a man I love lol
Without a doubt, the best Duran Duran song ever.
Couldn't agree more!
This and Save a Prayer are their very best.
I'll second that! I do like 'Ordinary World' alot.
its rich in quality, for sure. and the video has tits.
If you love this one and don't know about their song 'Drive by', then RUclips it.
This is by far the best version!!!
God bless my parents. When I got this for a Christmas gift in 1984, they played it in the car for me from Arizona and back. God bless Duran Duran for the music, the memories and the smiles.

The best song from Duran Duran.
And probably their best live version.
This is only version that matters.
The fucking crickets!!
They did an acoustic version which is pretty killer.
Mentre l'ascolto la mia mente torna indietro negli anni migliori in assoluto.
,,,,one of the best album ever made ,,ARENA!

1976 or 1978? More information about this?
Most likely 1978
The liner notes from the original album says 1978.
Live is best 1984
the last one minute and 23 seconds are like heaven....
Damn i miss the 80's so much ❤❤
Don't worry we have RUclips with Duran Duran, Roxy Music and Ultravox...we live in Paradise🙂
I have to give it to Nick for the haunting keyboards in this song
This is what I call MUSIC!!
So beautiful song! It brings tears in my eyes...I used to listen to it again and again and again.... ARENA is my favourite album!!!....
Wish I could go back to those lovely years! SO GREAT MUSIC! So great band!
👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
semplicemente stupenda!!! una perla che è fortunato chi la conosce!
La conoscano almeno 5 milioni di persone o forse 10.....oh!! stiamo parlando dei Duran Duran mica di me o di te... 🧡
Tranquillo.....forse è la migliore canzone dal vivo dei Duran....
Bellissima, questa è l’originale, la migliore versione. Mitici e indimenticabili Duran Duran💕
"The song the Chaffeur is one of the best written by Duran Duran I was 24 when I bought Arena and have enjoyed the song ever since. KUDOS
i listen to this song all the time in my car i allways turn only this one song to full blast im starting think that this is the best song i have ever heard so far! Thumbs Up If You Agree!
I agree, Panic... I'm a furry myself and this suits my fursona.. his name is Silver The Wolf
Silver The Wolf: Dun dun dun! Here I am! 😁
this is music.
This song got me through secondary school from 1985-1988. I put my headphones on and floated away. I was bullied by girls in my class for being pretty. 2022 and my 18 year old son loves it too. Thank you Duran Duran. ❤️
Goosebumps...
My favourite song by Duran Duran it’s hauntingly beautiful ❤️
this is a ballad. Simon wrote it many years ago as a poem. Haunting.He should thank Claire Stansfield for pushing him...
This song is one of the most beautiful ever. Thank you Duran Duran!
Arena, the best live album !!!!!
Great, great, great song, great, great, great álbum, great, great, great 80's!!! How I miss it all!
Roberto Dallossi 👏👏👏👏
Siamo in 2. I miei anni più belli...
@@liviocordellina4696 Un abbraccio dal Brasile!
One of their best songs...and an amazing video....
I listen to them every day in my small room in my moms apartment. On a brand new stereo and record player. Over and over again.........!!!
My parents bought me Arena for Christmas 1984. It was my favorite album for months! ❤
I wish I could go back to 80s love the music
Me too....I resonate with the 80 s so much fun emotion and most exciting time of my life.
Temon!!!!... Cuantos Recuerdos..... Inmortal este tema..!!!
this and winter marches on { for me } are the two absolute best DD songs ever made
Solo ellos pueden hacer un tema fino, delicado y a la vez lúgubre. 😍💕❤️🎆💞🎵💖💝
One of the songs that was on my car stereo on the day I met my lovely wife, Shelley. 30 plus years later and I still love her. She still makes me smile.
Que pieza! Una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos, bien por Duran Duran.
Temasooo . Uno o el mejor tema de Duran Duran ... Genios mal en esa epoca maravillosa!!!
My favourite Duran Duran song
Bellissima
Love love love this version of this song....a classic xxx
One of my favourite songs ever! Just perfect so passionate, so somber, gorgeous. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
What a such beautiful versión of this song, simply amazing !!!!
My funeral tune. Hopefully not too soon tho.😦
Great idea, actually ✨✨✨
La rola más chingona de Durán Durán en 1984....que me trae recuerdos hermosos De mi juventud
Nick Rhodes quoting "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" during the intro never fails to put a smile on my face.
duran at their very best simply amazing should play this at every concert they have been there all my life they are without doubt the best band sing blue silver
A Song a Masterpiece. Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!
The best.... of the best 💟❣️💟
Love this song since the album came out❤
Now, my friends, have you seen the film 'Drive', starring Ryan Gosling? What you're listening to RIGHT NOW should have been the song playing during the introduction! Or at least SOMEWHERE in the film!
The best version.😊❤🎉😮
Rio from 1982, best album of the 1980's, best band of the 1980's.
Arena's version: the best of all.
Superb but Too baroque. I prefer the electronic sterile slower purity of Rio's, even if it's sung worse.
Yes, better than the studio album. And the flute at the end of the song reminds me of the flute that the Gelflings play in the Dark Crystal. 80’s nostalgia
The greatest Duran Duran song
Still give's me goozebumps
Wat was ik toen nog jong, en wat hou ik nog steeds van hun muziek.....Duranie for ever :)
Gives
Obra de arte do DURAN DURAN
indimenticabili. .♥♥♥
Il 40% del loro successo era dovuto al fatto che erono "boni".. Il restante 60% perché erono bravi.

My favorite DD song!!
one of my favs from dd !!!
This song will always take me back to the time when i discovered it: January of 2000. I was madly in love with my first "girlfriend", Elisa...and I'd listen to this when taking the bus trip across UofM campus to see her.
Simon at his best!!!
Fantastic song.
Después de casi 37 años vuelvo a escuchar Arena de Durán Durán y es una antología de canción....Chauffer 👍👍🇲🇽
my favorite!
The Chauffeur live, Hold Me, And LOVE is Land, Are The Best.
🚘 the chauffeur ❤️
Acojonante.La mejor versión
Best Version 💯💯💯
Great CD from Duran Duran
The best song ever
Yeah, I have to agree, this might be the best song, from a great band!
I looooooooove the flute solo!
The flute is actually an ocarina
@@zeldafan9016 Thanks. I didn't know. (2023: BRAZIL IS UNDER FULL DICTATORSHIP!)
perfect song from a perfect band!!!
Perfect.
Love This Song While Riding In A Limousine!
Mitici i Duran Duran
1986, Abano Terme. Si viaggiava in moto, con le cuffie e questi brani. Bravissimi Duran
Love this so much
As nuances da música em todos os aspectos me fazem sentir algo totalmente diferente...a voz do Simon está perfeita perfeita
The chaffeur ainda o melhor som do Duran Duran aí que quebra mesmo essas porcarias de hoje em dia vix apavora Duran Duran clássico de verdade pra todos nós fãs de sons verdadeiros
a melhor versão da música até hoje
Best album +song ever I remember watching the arena video seeing gorgeous Roger Taylor xx
Duran Duran é muito mais do que essas porcarias de hoje em dia principalmente esse álbum que quebra tudo
lembro quando era garoto , que saldades
ABSOLUTLEY THE BEST SIDE EVER
: D YES beautiful song
Love the solo at the end of this version.
beautiful~
Das war noch echte Musik damals :)
cudowny utwór, cudowna wersja, lepsza niż na płycie Rio.Tu jest magia.
Perfection 🎶❤️
Nostalgic musical nirvana :-)
Esta versión en vivo y las que hicieron también en vivo y acústica en 1993 alrededor del mundo, son las dos mejores versiones de todos los tiempos
best duran duran song
Goosebumps!
Un live meraviglioso per un LP fantastico ARENA
the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart...
seeing lovers part I see you smiling, what glass splinters lie so deep in your heart?
They are on par with bands like Iron Maiden for the New Romantic scene in the 80's. I listen to Metal and good old Pop rock .
This is the first album I ever bought. I was only 10 and bought it in Darlington town centre , 36 years ago
I remember buy it also in Darlington from bootleg shop behind the old Argos
Amo amo amo esta linda música ❤️
Totally reminds me of dracula and castlevania. Awesomeness. Prefer this version to the original actually.
A top 5 Duran Duran song, along with Save a Prayer, New Religion The Seventh Stranger, and Land
