Duran Duran - The Reflex (Live Aid 1985) 

....absolute destruction...killer performances...live. No computer gimmicks. Beautiful 80s.

Let us all pray for our beloved Andy....... 🤞🏻🤞🏻 Stay STRONG Andy, you can make it!!!!!!!

They don’t make groups like Duran Duran anymore, fantastic wild boys .👀❤️💯🎵🎵🎼🎼🎼🎶

I've always been a metalhead but DD was a band I really liked that I couldn't admit out loud. I'm old now so I'll say it unapologetically now.

These guys should be in the R&R hall of fame it's long overdue. So many great albums.

The Bass played by John Taylor made and defined that group. It was John's bass playing that first caught my attention and got me into listening to Duran Duran. What a group and what a time to be alive..

Love or hate them, no other band sounds anything like Duran. Totally unique pop band.

One of Britain's all time greatest pop bands.

What I wouldn't give to go back to 1985 for a weekend...

I'm high school class of 1988... Duran Duran was the coolest band of them all... every kid wished they were them.

John Taylor the coolest guy in the band, also the coolest mullet in the entire world

Wow, John Taylor's bass really was a driving force to Duran Duran, accompanied by Nick's soaring magical keyboard notes. Of course Andy and Roger were awesome in their own right, but that bass! What would their songs be without that bass?!

If time goes back I would attend this concert the whole day to see all 80's artists perform

These guys were way ahead of their time musically. Their songwriting is absolutely brilliant. I agree that they should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Duran Duran always has the most insane bass lines. Lol

One of the best bass lines ever, and I mean ever.... One word..... RIO ... !!!

John Taylor is great!

GET WELL ANDY - praying for you! Sending love to the band and all Duranies!!! ❤ 🤗 ❤

John Taylor killin it with the Kubicki Ex Factor bass. Sounds so nice through headphones, you'll get more of an appreciation for that awesome sound.

remember this summer day of '85 so well. it was like the entire world was involved. big events and great memories during that era. was 15 at the time. seeing this again makes me feel so old. wish I could live that day again. miss the friends of the young world and the times we shared. 🇺🇲

Simon has to be one of the most confident front men, but I love Nick and his intelligence

We saw Duran Duran in Los Angeles in the 80’s and we just flew to Red Rocks to see them again last month you are right Taylor on the bass was great they were all great wow

Love Duran Duran and John Taylor is one of the greatest bassists of all time! Duran Duran had one of the greatest rhythm sections with him on bass and Roger Taylor on drums. You can really hear it here in this live performance.

I was 15 years old, I watched live aid all day long waiting for Duran Duran! It was worth it! I also got to see so many other amazing performances including U2 and Queen! What a time to be alive and what an amazing time for music! I'm so lucky to have experienced the 80's and 90's!

Thanks John Taylor for great and amazing bass.

Often overlooked is the respectable level of musicianship behind the good looks and trendsetting fashion style, funky beats and shallow lyrics. Andy Taylor is a really good guitar player in his own way.

We just saw Duran Duran at the Hollywood Bowl for their final show of FUTURE PAST and they freaking blew "The Reflex" (and everything else) out of the water. Simon sounded just like he did on the album. I know Live Aid had numerous technical difficulties that prevented artists from performing at their peak, but Duran Duran has still got it! They sounded better now than in 1985!

The shit Nick does on this Song is just amazing! 👍 Song is still fresh 40 years on! 👍

Duran Duran at their best with all the original band members!!!

Simon always gave 110% every performance..

Their music still makes me feel like getting up and dancing!!

Lord God, I remember watching this way back then, has 35 years really passed? Damn, I'm old. Was only 18 when this concert took place.

Live Aid was a historic music event. I am so glad I was able to watch "LIVE" as it happened.

Top notch band : playing free with other groups for the common good...Simon Le Bon great front man!

Great musicians!! No auto tune B.S. of today.

I remember this very well. Just 24 hour before Simon and Nick were shooting the video for elrctionday for the Arcadia album. Clothes and hairstyle from Nick says actually everything...They were asked for this gig and with no rehearsel or anything they blowed it away! Very good like always!

Good lord !!! John Taylor was and still is beautiful 😍😍😍😍

This was my Favorite Group in the 80's .My family's still tease me about my obsession over Duran Duran back than.

Tiempos gloriosos! I L💓VE SIMON LE BON !😘🎵 I L💓VE DURAN DURAN! 😘🎵 Que regresen los 80's!!!!! 👏👏👏

I love this song for the diversity of the music. It suits so well on Simon's voice.

I feel so privileged to be a child of the seventies and still be able to remember that day ❤️❤️❤️

I see a little bit of Elvis's face in Simon. Anyone else see it too? 💌Duran Duran. I wish I had been there at this concert.

37 years late, Duran Duran still rock

John Taylor. Brilliant!

Big Simon, good voice, big performance all.. Duran❤️❤️👍👍

Anyone notice that none of them are wearing hearing protection? For anyone who knows the bands history, this concert was put together at the last minute, that is, not playing together for a year, flying in and having little time to practice. The feedback ..high squeal noises.... happened in many stadiums with performers. With that large of a crowd, it would knock anyone off key. I think considering the circumstances, this was a great concert. They may have felt more at home at wembley stadium, but they were a young band, touring constantly, 3 albums, and the stress shows. John had a drug problem, Andy partied, and Roger quit shortly after this concert. It was an honor just to play. Here we are, 33 years later, .....who is still making new music, alive, from live aid? I watched live, and I didn’t care. I was home, but those who 💩 on Duran Duran because of this, or define them because of this? You don’t know Duran Duran.

God, I miss the 80's!!!!! Incredible music and NO cell phones to numb our brains. We "lived in the moment"!!!!

何年経っても名曲は名曲だ！

Finally! On their way to the R&R Hall of Fame were they belong!! I met them back in 2008, really really nice guys.

I remember hearing this on the radio in Chicago with a friend who died on his motorcycle a month later. I’ll never forget your band and the 80s

No one made music videos quite like Duran Duran :)

This live goes down in human history.

Sometimes I forget how funky these mofos were. This is such a great performance. The synths were turned ON too!

Simon and John still do that little forehead touch when they perform today. The love between them is so wonderful to see.

I hope we can gather in a crowd like this again.

Excellent sounds bass so great to hear favorite band ever so good

John is one of the best bassist ever .They were despised at the time but they were and still are great musicians .Talented .

I was there and I couldn’t wait for Duran Duran to come onstage. I remember it being so hot that day but I loved every minute of it

I think Nick is an amazing non technical keyboard player.Underrated... Very inventive.. All taste..all style and great parts and sounds. For a guy who isn't a "Player" per se..He's written hits/ recorded some incredible music. Tiger Tiger etc

Cannot have a Duran Duran concert without the reflex. What a classic rock song

They were one of the premier bands of the 2nd British Invasion. I think some people don't know, or have forgotten, just how enormously popular these guys were in the 80s. I was 29 when I saw LiveAid on MTV, with a couple of friends, some beer, and a hand full of joints. I miss my MTV, and my damn youth for that matter. 😁

'The reflex' is a description of elements of the AUTOMATIC systems of the Divine machine. Duran Duran also served GOD. Everything does.

Duran Duran had a really unique pop sound. I put them with Depeche Mode, The Cure and The Smiths as far as writing numerous great songs.

I was 14 years old when this incredibly wonderful benefit concert had aired. Me and some members of my family were all glued to the TV. It was and will always be a very beautiful place in my heart and soul. The 80s were so freakin amazing. This band's performance was not one to miss.

Thank you for the dream John Taylor

The image at the time took away from the fact that they were such a tight spot on band. John Taylor was really an underrated bassist.

I just never realized how good Duran Duran was when I was listening to a lot of metal and prog rock when they were around. I knew a couple of their songs that I liked - but this concert is amazing.

JT like a freight train. Such a hugely underrated bass player.

the reflex is my favorite song since 1984. Duranduran is glowing up top artist all over the world

They were my favorite band then, and still my favorite today. I never got a chance to see them in concert though. They deserve their place in the R&R Hall of Fame.

Best British Band fron 80's Era Duran Duran.Most popular British Band they are next to Beatles fron their popularity.

John Taylor is a very handsome guy....this time and now

I love Simon Le Bon's black hair! Brings out his blue eyes!! 😍

They were massive back then .. One of the major acts that night

I watched Live Aid at home with my little daughter & my infant, newly born daughter. 17 months later, had another daughter. Those last 2 daughters of ours grew up and STILL go see Duran Duran when they come around. Explains everything!

Beautiful song and they still handsome

One of the greatest bands of all time 💗

What a bass! Uncomparable!!!

One of the greatest bands of the 80s....I love the 80s!

Nick and Andy arm in arm at the end. There is always hope!

back in the 80s, all my schoolmates listened to metal bands at that time. I didn't really give a damn. And although I felt their looks and their judgment towards me for listening to Duran Duran and on top of that, having my folder full of photos of the band. I appreciate having the courage to enjoy it at a time when being just a little bit different was reason enough to be bullied.

Watching December 2019...DURAN DURAN....Simon Le bon-Lead Vocalist...John Taylor- Bass Guitar....Nick Rhodes-Keyboard....Andy Taylor-Guitar....and Roger Taylor on Drums...

❤Beautiful

i honestly dont see why anyone could hate on this, it is honestly just as good as any of thier other concerts i have seen, and they all have been pretty spectacular

i loved this group ❤️

When I was 12 I was supposed to marry John Taylor...still waiting 35 years later

Ah, Live Aid. I was glued to TV all day and most of the night. Remember this fondly. ❤

I'm back on my childhood on the 80's!

So cool...bass lines..JT

The Only band EVER where the bassist and the keyboardist were more popular than the singer

Best band ❤

Hope they be in the Rock and Roll wall of Fame in 2022.

Love to look at Nick when he is so focused.... 😄😍

One more beautiful performance by Duran Duran. They love what they do, they love to play. I had the honor to be in their show in São Paulo (2015), it was a unforgettable experience. Love you guys!!

Although I continue to listen to and admire their albums and follow their entire career to this day, a large part of me feels that this was "the last Duran Duran concert".

So good to see Andy here ❤!

Love you john taylor😍

Mi Banda Favorita por Siempre ❤

My 11 birthday!!!! Got to watch this😍

After 37 yrs I saw tis again..really insane luv u DD simon, john, nick andy roger..goshh
