If you are reading this right now, I pray you will get what you always pray for, I pray you will get the happiness you want in life, I pray things will work out for you. Never give up, good days are coming.❤️🙏
Reading this two years after it was written I hope you are right, things haven’t turned out as planned but life gets in the way of plans. Thanks for just being able to say that. Bless you ❤
The fact that, 40 years on now, I can turn youtube or Spotify on and hear new Duran Duran, any Duran Duran, and at the age of 63 years old, Simon LeBon STILL HAS IT, is a pleasure I'll never get tired of.
I honestly thought the high vocal in the bridge of the song was a back-up singer in the original recording. And here's Simon doing it now, and not batting an eyelash. Born in the generation where being good at writing and playing instruments. Duran Duran has always been and always will be the definition of class.
@@MrRadialdrift Only Harket could match his voice and still can. Impressive voice and power they both have. If the band did their job with more nerve, this would totally rock. Same goes for new album.
Their best song in my opinion. Takes me back to a life changing event in my teenage years, an event which should’ve been the end of me, but it led to what would turn out to be the beginning. God is good!
Que linda essa música, estou com 60 anos , lembro que ouvia na tv , os clips , e vendo agora vem as recordações, que voz linda. Eu amo Duran Duran. Viva esse som parabéns viva longa a TODOS Um abraço de carinhoso a todos ❤❤❤❤
Coincidência ou o quê será?? Adormeci na poltrona pensando na confusão em que o mundo se encontra hoje. Acordei com o som da chuva, acessei o RUclips e eis que me aparece esse hino "Ordinary World" ... Vida longa ao Duran Duran!!
The window this song was released and a hit I was suffering deep depression in the desert 3 month long miserable war training. I had too much going on privately and all I could play repeatedly on my cassette walkman was this song over and over day n night night n day. I liked Duran Duran songs but was blown away to find this was them at the time since it was different fr their style imo. Amazing how I never thot there'd be and end to what I felt being stuck and wanted to get out of and time just wouldn't move even with this song but yes... it did help me!. Now, I'm looking back fast decades. Thanks and nice cool high rise setting inside and helicopter footage. Good sound
Great performance, no frills, no unnecessary messing around the stage, just stand their and sing and play. Quality all around. The whole band could teach modern bands how to produce solid sound that isn't just load but has depth.
My single favorite song of all time, of any genre. It's absolutely beautiful, and brings me back to a time before I was able to understand the lyrics, but still loved the melody. I eventually grew to live out the lyrics, and long for the person I was, when I first heard the song.
You are so right! It's a gorgeous, haunting melody that matches the sad lyrics. I listened to this song over and over after an awful breakup, and it helped me heal.
i WAITED 30 YEARS BUT IN 29/03/2017 FINALLY THEY HAD A SHOW IN MY CITY (BELO HORIZONTE, BRAZIL) AND THIS MUSIC WAS ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SHOW. UNFORGETTABLE!!!
This song will always have a special place in my heart. It played so much when I was going through a horrific divorce. The words ring true. It's been almost 20 years since and I still love this song. I don't cry for yesterday, I found my way through the ordinary world and I survived. ❤
“I won’t cry for yesterday”…I’m still working on that, I love my yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Sometimes yesterday is important to teach about today, and tomorrow. May there be true universal peace, prosperity, and safe living for everyone.
I love Duran Duran!!!. Their songs and videos were always fantastic. I'm loving them at 60 years just like I did when I was a young teenager. Great Band! Simon is the man!❤❤❤

i still remember when i first listening « union of the snake in 1983 , it was a new sound, they are incredible ! music is their religion
If he is the new 63, im all in!!!!
Amazing bc he is still with his wife Yasmin and with kids and a true family man I respect that!!
Glad Yasmine and Simon are still together, and have a big family... that is great!
I 63 , DITTO , Cheers
There’s an ordinary world out there somewhere, right? Still trying to find it. Good luck to us all finding it.
Simon’s singing voice is incredible for his age.
He can still hit those high notes!
I always thought his voice got better with age.
Wow! I agree; I'm 60 and he sounds good at (Any) age, LOL, just amazing
Si canta bien para su edad toda la razón
Stunning!
This song, Wild Boys and Save a Prayer are among my favorite songs of all time
Been a fan since the beginning. Now I'm 72 years old and I still love this song and the performance by Duran Duran!.
Nice🎉💝
Mine friend loves Duran Duran.God bless her .We still love Duran Duran .
I honestly thought the high vocal in the bridge of the song was a back-up singer in the original recording.
And here's Simon doing it now, and not batting an eyelash.
Born in the generation where being good at writing and playing instruments.
Duran Duran has always been and always will be the definition of class.
The girls actually accompanied him during his falsetto at the rock and role Hall of fame performance. I think it definitely adds something to it.
@@Shamrock3939 That's why they're called back up singers...
@@PorcelainLeigh but they aren’t doing it in this video. That’s my point. The performance at the rock and roll HOF was better imo.
The is Miracle dos que sabem encantar, com sua originalidade e carisma!!!
They did an Awesome job , love this song .
His vocals are so sweet and spot on, the band amazes me how great they still sound. Much respect.
The best voice of the 80's is still good and strong
Sì buona....tu hai bevuto....fa davvero cagare in confronto agli anni 80... troppa droga e alcool...🤯🤕🤣🤣🤣🤣😋😎✌️🤞✋
Think David Sylvian might have something to say about that! Brilliant though, my era my music 🎵👍
Bono, Sting and Morten Harket have a better voice.
@@MrRadialdrift Only Harket could match his voice and still can. Impressive voice and power they both have. If the band did their job with more nerve, this would totally rock. Same goes for new album.
@@briane4088 Yet his pitch control is all over the place. Good and strong, nope. Tired and past its best. He changes key about 15 times in this video.
This band was my craze in my childhood!! Who is still listening this song in 2023?? I am mad about it!!!
Their best song in my opinion. Takes me back to a life changing event in my teenage years, an event which should’ve been the end of me, but it led to what would turn out to be the beginning. God is good!

Simon is one of THEE best singers in England. Underrated.
I never tire of this song.
I feel the same way ..
Agreed

Vida longa ao Duran Duran!!
Duran Duran is the best band ever
I didn't realize how emotional this song was til I actually listened to it. Especially the part: "Where is my friend when I need you most".
I heard the song it was about a friend he lost
Sometimes there is a song that transcends time, hard times, and petty feelings. This is one of those songs.
And the music perfectly matches the lyrics; it is very bittersweet and has perseverance.
2024 always the best turn it way up
Simon sounds great 🙌🏾
They sing it like they did 30+ years ago.That is a great song.
Sheer class.
You betcha ❤
taylor's crawling bass groove really makes this song awesome.. and simon.. jesus, this song is fucking amazing.
They sound pretty stinkin' good! Wow
This band means so much to my heart, got me through dark times in my life. Thanks guys, love you long time.
Nice

I was never a fan of Duran Duran, I was more of a hard rock guy in the 80's but this song is one of my all time guilty pleasure tunes.
JT...the happiest guy on earth...his smile is infectious...
At my age of 51...Almost all of Duran Duran songs has keep Me with My Great Memories of My Teenage Years...Thank You for Making Great Songs..
When beauty meets perfection !
Love his voice, and the ambience of this song. Just perfect 🤍🎶
Me too😀
TAKE ME BACK TO THE SIMPLER TIME AND AGE.

They are a legendary band.
@@Mmmeize you beat me to it what a fantastic song
Duran Duran was the perfect band for the video music era. I do miss those days…
He sounds better than ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

That Wedding Album was definitely ahead of it's time...I still listen to it.

First time I heard this song was during COVID. It helped get me through being alone with everything shut down.
Great song. Great band. Great vocal. Thanks for all the music.
What a trip, I took my daughter to see Duran Duran in Oakland, 1984.
She was 11.👱♀️👍😎
It’s sad but age is finally catching up in his voice but still waaaay ahead of new puppies on the scene with computer as their only ally !!!
Best guitar solo in their catalogue.

Lyrics
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well, now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Every world
Is my world
(I will learn to survive)
Any world
Is my world
(I will learn to survive)
Any world
Is my world
Not my preferred band but great respect
Pure class
My favourite song of theirs. And man, Simon still kills it!
Sound as good today as ever.
This song always makes me tear up.
Nothing but perfection! Cant say any more than that
