Lyrics:
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild, wild, boys, boys
The wild boys are calling
On their way back from the fire
In August moon's surrender to
A dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory
Reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail
Because there's murder by the roadside
In a sore afraid new world
They tried to break us
Looks like they'll try again
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it
Wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
You got sirens for a welcome
There's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing
While you're dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory
Where is all you angels
Now the figureheads of have fell
And lovers war with arrows
Over secrets they could tell
They tried to tame you looks like they'll try again
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it
Wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it
Wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it
Wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it
Wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys - Hudba
If you still here... You are a legend
Wild Boys forever
This was the band i went out clubbing to , and listened to in my bedroom
My fav ever
Hey
The amount of technology and effort this took for 1984!!! Is insane!! I love this video and song so much
in 1980s: The future will be amazing
In 2020s: Take me back to the 80's
Because you are realizing what the elderly knew in the 80's, you will always lone to go back to when you were growing up, because no matter how bad you thought it was then, things will get worse
@BeckyBoo Before the technology handicap
Yep, I wasn't born in the '80s (93) 🤣
@@EpicObjectShows Actualy I am not but UR so pathetic
@@costash457 ok, but it was pathetic for you , not me as I was unaware and you were doing that to have me aware and be able to be yourself. Its funny cause ever since I went through all that pain for that purpose , how u guys been treating me and thinking there was another woman you had a "choice" in IS ALSO PATHETIC. ARE U EVER NOT PATHETIC?????
I'm 52 now. Just send me back to 80's.
😊
You mean waiting for the 'Top 9 at 9' on the one AM radio station in your little town, with your blank tape loaded on your boom box so you could make a mix tape for your crush, featuring INXS, John Cougar Mellencamp, Duran Duran, Prince, Madonna, Billy Idol, Pat Benatar, Culture Club, Tina Turner, Bruce Springsteen, Joan Jett, Bon Jovi, Ben E. King, The Bangles, etc. Those '80s?
@@Sarah-bq1xs Indeed:)
Yessss, please!!! I am in!
aynı yaştayız aynı fikirdeyim🙂
The kids now will never experience what the 80s was, there's no words to describe, it's a FEELING!
"A matter of feeling". 😂😂😂
You had to be there!!! ❤❤❤
It will never be that way again.
friend, i played this alot on the aircraft carrier while serving.. a good moral builder, amd incentive motivator. besides it sort of matches the spirt of that time. uncivilized...bruhaaaaaaa
@@stepheng1138 most of the music from back then was Inspiring & motivating & all "eye of the tiger", if u will.
As opposed to now, where rock, rap, etc is more f'ing hoes, & murda, & teenage angst, it's all angry & aggressive, or pain & depression. I miss them good ole days songs that trigger that nostalgia & encourage my strength.
Cro Cop thank you for everything that you've done in K-1 and MMA. You're the one and only.
wot a classic awesome video by an awesome band growing up , bit of the mad Max sexy Simon let bon xx 😍🤗💖💖xx
Ova pjesma je legendarna
every time i hear it or even hear the title or even hear someone mention duran duran i think of CC.
I am 63 yrs. old and was in college when Duran Duran was popular. Many nites I pulled all nite study sessions to get ready for mid-terms or finals and would listen to them to stay awake. Some of the best music ever!
I am 47 years old and remember these videos during the dawn of MTV, definitely one of my favorites. College was never an option for me. I became successful and I hope college did you well, as for the Memories, priceless. :)
@@TimeTraveler.981 you must have misread my comment. I was 7 years old when MTV hit the airwaves. I believe it was either a Friday or Saturday night at 11 p.m., I had stayed up with my dad and watch the very first video when it launched. " Video Killed the Radio Star." It's a night I'll never forget.
@@TimeTraveler.981 no worries. 😀 I believe MTV defined the culture of that time. I think we need more of that these days.
@@TimeTraveler.981 I believe the second video they played was you better run by Pat Benatar. I still love her to this day. :)
Hungry like the wolf has kept me awake through many an all nighter :)
Classic. Heaven!!! The absolute BEST BAND God has ever blessed us with!!! I saw a private concert in the 80s in a small club in Philadelphia…. I was there at 5:30 for the 8:00 show and met ALL OF THEM!!! I shook Simon’s hand and didn’t wash it for a week
Definitely not best ever.
I don’t really care what you think
This is the best Duran Duran song. Love it!
Yes 100percent
I prefer planet earth but this still elite
Está. Es. Buenas ..pero. Tiene. Muchos temas. Mejores...
The only one I liked back in the day.
Absolutely true!👏🏻
This music video is 40 years old but still superior.
Unfortunately not the sound
Yup!!!
@@carlos2635rs Wrong. Can be remastered if ...
i just wish it would be remastered so you can actually see the details...& there's a butt-ton of details.
YOU are the wrong one here. Ha ha ha...
Simon's vocals are one of a kind.
I remember being a kid growing up on this song always thinking how a regular human being could sing this way. Today, as an adult, I am still thinking that.
Everyone was listening to this song.. it's a masterpiece..but this is the studio version, I actually don't consider Simon to be such a good singer..
@@mortenhyvejle But his voice tone is pure gold, though.
@@algenibpersei I can not argue with that my friend 👍
show de mano
No 60 second intro, no lame "story" chatter in the middle. Just classic storytelling through a music video. Such an amazing song after all these years.
Hi I recommend checking out a song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix
Great song, crappy video.
The Wild Boys came out the same year we read The Lord of The Flies in junior high school. The two will be forever inextricably linked in my mind. ❤❤❤
This song is absolutely a masterpiece. The lyrics just gives me goosebumps everytime.
Agreed!
One of my favorites in my junior year of high school!
yeah its so ngayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I agree, every word! 😎
Same here. 😂😂
One of the greatest videos ever made in the 80’s ….
And the most expensive at that time.
Mind you Spandau ballet were pretty close
"When I go fishing at the beach with my kayak, I catch Mackerel my grill net has open door from botttom, Sea lions pop their head from bottom door & eat ocean white fish or shark's eat it at oil rig's! pretty cool :)
THRILLER was and is better
@@shawnmassey7918 unfortunately that was made by a paedophile and no it wasn't
This video was way before it’s time. Great song and visuals. Ordinary world another favorite. Still the best in 2024
I never got to see this video as a teen-ager. I loved the song and would drop what I was doing to sit and listen when it came on the radio.
The 80's were like the best dream ever!
soooo true
And 90's was reality of best times ever !
Así es
The myth of progress always comes as a trojan horse. At first, tech was here for us. We are already at the point where we must be sympathetic to tech. We buy it, but it owns us. They are going to make simple things harder and harder until you accept an internal device. Then the horror will be unspeakable. There is your progress.
WILD BOYS
there is no "THE"
timeline sux!
Duran Duran- Kings of the best videos of the 80's
Adam Ant led the way, Duran Duran got more cash
yes
I agree
How can you say that? The special effects in this are horrible!
@@andyw6996 for the time they were great
The Best Of The Best, I Totally Love The 80's Hit Songs.
Angela u have a nice Smile 😊
Hello, how are you doing? It’s nice meeting you here. Thanks for your love and support❤You have yourself a wonderful day ahead 🌺🌺🎶🎵🎊
Love this song today as much as I did the day it came out. It’s a jam.
Duran Duran is one of the most talented group of the 80's!! Brings back such awesome memories!!
Feel the same... just thinking about it now,.. where the days..
Even better than Depeche Mode.
@@marcuskeulertz5852 my two favoyrite groups are DD and DM ,but strangely as i get older,i prefer DD
@@marcuskeulertz5852 depends on taste...m sure they are talented
Marcus Keulertz I like them both
This Song is Legendary.
2024...and still sound Marvelous! !!
This is a masterpiece - not only the music but the dancing, the set design and the whole production of the video.
非常同意。
They were just.... To get crazy 😍!
I' m from Argentina. I can remember very clear the first time I saw this video. It was so far from the others, so far, so amazing.
🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺💯💯💯💯💯💯
Same !!! I watch and think, wow !!! This is "handwork" ! Like a "Mad Max" movie !
Duran Duran + Mad Max + Mirko Crocop = The Real Wild Boys
👍👍✊🇷🇺
Cro cop brought me here 🇭🇷👮♂️
Cro cop is a legend. From Portugal. and I admire a lot Cro cop, the perfect fighter
"Right leg hospital, left leg cemetery" - Cro Cop
🤘 I remember hearing his entrance music going, then he would walk up to the ring and was a perfect song for him. That left kick could bring down a mountain. Plus he was the head of that anti terrorist team in his country.
Wild Boys always shine.
Shiny and chrome.
BEST Duran Duran song ever!!! So fortunate to have been born in the mid-70s so I could be old enough during the 80s to appreciate all of the amazing music we had!
FACTS
@@freshsox7052I was born in 1970 so got the full force of the 80's what a wonderful time 🎉
Early 70s is even better! 1971
This era was LIT.
One of my favorite Duran Duran classic songs in the 80's...
2020 ...Wild Boys 🔥🔥🔥
U called??? Lol
@@V-tec28 and we came.
😈😈😈😈😈👹👹👹👹👹👺👺👺👺

Didier De Buck lol
Duran Duran all these years later still sound fire
It's 2024, and I'm still listening to this!❤
Hello, how are you doing? It’s nice meeting you here. Thanks for your love and support❤You have yourself a wonderful day ahead 🌺🌺🎶🎵🎊
I was just a kid at my granma's house when this video appeared on TV. It totally blew my mind and hit me hard. From that exact moment, music had officially stole my soul and changed my life forever. Music became my reason to live.
Dude I never looked at it that way, this song had the same exact effect on me as well, I think I was around 10 or 11 when I first heard it, stopped me in my tracks when I heard it in passing thu the living room while it was on MTV, been hooked ever since, I find myself hearing it deep in my mind while I'm working or whatever, it just pops in there from nowhere lol "Wild boys" outta nowhere, awesome song for sure👍
Kinda weak reason.
I am 42 years old and Duran Duran was my favorite group growing up...and even now! I had the biggest crush on Simon...John wasn't too bad either! Every birthday, Christmas, Easter, my dad always bought me a Duran Duran CASSETTE! I even have a few vinyl 45 singles, and even a few of their albums on 33 rpm! I will NEVER get rid of my vinyl (I still have a turntable!)
+Jennifer Compton I know what you mean....these guys were HUGE when I was in high school.....girls wanted them and guys envied them, even if we didn't say so. To tell the truth, I still sort of like the 80's clothes/styles they wore; someday that stuff will come back I'm sure. I have a box in my garage of my old 80's clothes so I'll be ready.
+Jennifer Compton 40 this year, LOVE them :-) Am loving their recent performances, not so keen on the beard but the stubble in Pressure Off seriously suits him.
Someone on that clip described what I swear is the perfect description for Simon and is pretty much the best way of describing what he pulls off in each clip for 30+ yrs & does so big time in that clip. Excuse the language but I have to admit many women our age 100% agreed lol, was said he "eye fucks you" through the camera lol. Never heard it put that way before but hey, it does indeed fit!
It says something when my 16 yr old thought I was slightly deranged when Pressure Off came on the tv & I may or may not have tried to lick the screen, and she then stood back and went "Ohhh...NOW I get it! Omg, I do NOT want to know how old he must be but wow, he is HOT!"...she has taste that kid ;-)
Oh yeah, for Xmas guess what she got? A record player! They are back in fashion, recent stuff is on vinyl...bloody expensive though, expect to pay about $70 a record!
Plus I bet I'm not the only one who LOVES the clip for this simply for the enjoyment of seeing him tied to a windmill & dunked in water...would be no surprise at all if he came up with that idea himself considering he knew (and his wife certainly knew) how many women would have made this hit the top of the charts for that alone ;-)
Would love to see the footage but there is indeed a concert they did when he was first married to Yasmin & she came on stage, grabbed his balls and said "MINE!"...I think every female (& half the males) there just had their hearts broken lol.
Moses Berkowitz, will come back to you in a sec...my name says it all - I've collected, worn & sold retro & vintage since the early 90's, can help you know what its what :-)
+vintage lover I will ALWAYS love Simon...he has always had a way with connecting with the audience. He was one of my first celebrity crushes (among Leif Garrett and Shawn Cassidy!) Duran Duran will ALWAYS be my first and ONLY fave "boy band!"
+Jennifer Compton KORREKT !!! DURAN DURAN " WILD BOYS" is the BEST SONG of the 80´er !!!!!!! And SURVIVOR " EYE OF THE TIGER " TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah they were huge with girls of your age group. I was born in '69 but in 1992 I had a GF who as born in '74. She is 42 now. She had loved Duran Duran at their peak so when they did a comeback tour in 1993 I took her to see them at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Maryland. Some guy got jealous when Simon LeBonn was looking at his GF while on stage and tried to punch Simon. What a deuche that guy was (not LeBonn, the stupid guy in the crowd).
--- IN THE RED CORNER, FROM CROATIA....... MMMIIIRRRCCCOOOOOOO CRO-COP!!!!!
This never gets old 😅
I miss mma pride times
My favorite song is The Wild Boys
Im 50 yr old but still get so hyped up as i was when i was a very young girl but the creepy looking thing irks me still
Shit got wild in the 80's
Never gonna get tired of listening to this. What a tune.
☆LONG LIVE THE 80'S☆
I'm 37 and i got into Duran Duran's music in March of this year. I love their music so much. Simon's voice so good
My uncle kept blasting this in the 80's and its the first Duran Duran song I really loved, i still think its on their top 5 best songs. His voice really shines with that incredible verse melody.
It was briefly #1 for me as a teen, before settling into #3 for many a decade.
Mirko Cro Cop won the Rizin Openweight Gran Prix today and I'm blasting this right now in his honor!!!
Thank you Mom, for teaching me what real music is.
Went away to college in 1984 and forgot about what was happening musically. This song brought me back immediately. What an amazing time to be alive. So grateful.
This really needs to get a 4k re-upload for 2020. CLASSIC VIDEO for a new generation. Make it happen!
MetalJesusRocks That’ll be awesome
There's absolutely no need for that.
@@MarcoAGJ Yes it is!!!
This generation doesn't like music. They listen to the likes of Drake. Surprised to see you here liking Duran Duran. Thought you just listened to metal. Respect! Love your channel by the way.
@@TonyMontanaDS feel you man, im 14, my friends only hear new bullshit, why if you can listen to this legends
Andy's hard axe grinding guitar riffs & Roger's kickass drumming, & Nick's serious synth sound just makes this song explode.
@Mar M Fight Andy fight 🎸🤜 🦀
And John's memorising bass lines??
@@mikekaraoke Well, sure, but, what sticks out to me most is all that I've said above.
Don't forget the amazing vocals
@@sarascarpati887 Yep, and backing vocals!
The Grand Tour got me here. Such an epic music! Very much familiar with the band since they also sang "A view to a kill".
Same here
@@iee4g6 Indeed
Yeah me too. I remember when I was a kid in England and this came out.
@@mclarenf1V12 your a racing car driver aint you go Wild boys please do not shut your eyes. damn wild running at speed,
Same here
When I was a kid and this video came on MTV I stopped doing whatever I was doing. It didn't matter what it was. I had to see the whole video and I especially waited for that monster in the water! What a blessing to be a kid in the 80's!
ps. I never grew up! I'm still a kid at heart!
I stopped giving CPR to a friend when this video came on. He wasn't my friend after that.
You are not alone.
Great song, crappy video.
I was teenager in the ‘ 80’s and I can confidently say my teen age children will NEVER have as much fun as I did.
Duran Duran is one of the most talented and influential bands I grew up listening to. love them forever

That video angle of Cro Cop and his entourage walking to the ring while Wanderlei is staring at them and doing his "wrist roll" is one of the most badass moments in MMA history.

That has nothing to do with the video and is just fictional stuff humans made up. Unfortunately humans love to kill for their fictional characters.

The most expensive music video ever made at the time.
Only 6 million views ..
If we were in the 80s
It had more than 2 billion views
This video kind of scared me as a kid, HA. The 1980s were out of this world.
haha me too. Just watched it today after nearly 20' somethin' years. Childhood memories
As soon as it came on i said the same thing. Glad i wasnt the only one. 😌
lol me too XD
Me too.
Me too. Funny that after 30 yrs one of your memories of the 80's is a video clip.
The song and video will not age..not ever
The Grand tour got me here. Thanks for another amazing song.
I remember having to stop Aqua Netting😅😅 my hair in the morning to put the needle back at the beginning of the song.

Duran Duran didn't get enough credit for this video since it was beyond what was being videoed in those days.
Absolutely. This video was ahead of its time.
So true 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
ABSOLUTELY....THIS VIDEO WAS ON ANOTHER LEVEL. HEAD AND SHOULDERS ABOVE EVERY OTHER VIDEO AT THE TIME
One of the first million dollar + videos ever made. Only Jackson's Thriller costed more at the time.
It's got a mad max vibe to it. I remember watching it constantly on the old cable when it first came out.
Duran Duran + Mad Max = Wild Boys
+Victor Partridge
Lol, that was a great one!
Not quite Dean, like Victor said you're thinking of the cult classic The Lost Boys. Brilliant movie (my kids love it now too) and one of the best move soundtracks of all time but nope, no Duran Duran on there sorry.
This would have been fitting for it though TBH, timing was right - this was done in 1984 and The Lost Boys in 1987.
Think many women would have appreciated a young Kiefer Sutherland alongside Simon Le Bon though...
can someone shut me off from this this comment...durang durang durang
In case anyone's interested, this was originally going to be an adaptation of William S. Burroughs' 1971 novel. Apparently EMI/Capitol had other ideas.
Os3Commandos Thunderdome with Tina Turner
Totally ahead of its time, this one - the guitars and synths in this are brilliant. I was a teen in 1984 and Duran Duran were high up there on my playlist, rather good those guys still play live in 2023 and produce albums.
All rise for the Croatian national anthem!!

Duran Duran and Russell Mulcahy. Perfection. Their music, his direction. Still one of my all time favorites.
Have to give much respect to Russell for all of this. Without him this song would not exist.
An 80s video ahead of its time, the flat screen TVs!
Yes :)
I remember when this video came out we were watching in the morning before school. Thought it was the most amazing thing we've ever seen! Almost missed our bus cause we didn't have video on demand like we do today. You never knew when you were going to see the video again unless you watched MTV all day long. We couldn't do that cause we had bike riding and ramp jumping and skate boarding and mall hanging to do. LOL
I've loved them then and Love them now!!!! YES I'M OLD SCHOOL!!!
Old skool means having taste being into new rap and hip-hop is being tasteless. Stop calling yourself old school. It's tasteful. They played instruments; the music is superior. Stop apologising to idiots.

MIRKO CROOOOO COP!!!
80s were the best.Long live the 80s..!
Wild boys always shine
I'm almost 40 now but I remember watching this as a kid with my oldest brothers who are now in their mid 50's during (one was a breakdancer and one was a jock who listened to heavy metal and new wave). I remember sitting in front of the TV and just being totally drawn to this video, the flames, the dark and wicked faces, and the spinning while being drowned half of his head while singing really gave me the creeps but sparked my curiosity at the same time. When he yells "Wild Boys!" I thought he was talking about bad guys, like drug addicts and thieves haha. And when I was in the 1st grade in 87, I wrote "Wild Boyz" on the back of my notebook, haha funny now that I think about it. This video scared me more than the Bon Jovi videos that my older brother and I used to watch. I miss the 80's, I had the best time as a kid with my 7 other siblings. I miss the easy Saturday mornings watching cartoons and then Top 40, seeing George Michael or Wham "Wake Me Up, Before You Go Go" and doing goofy dances in front of the TV and bursting out in laughter with my older sisters and brothers. Peace and Love to all
“I’m almost 40...”
I’m calling Bravo Sierra on that one.
You are solidly in your mid-40s if you remember this song that well.
This video, and billy idols dancing with myself
Bon Jovi in pink spandex pants, I agree, was almost as frightening as this video.
@@andrewjames1366 To be fair he might have caught the re-runs. I'm 42 and it wasn't played that much until the 1990s IIRC.
@ Andrew james, why would he not be 40, I have a son who is 11yrs younger than his brother the older one used to like the red hot chilli peppers. When my younger one went to secondary school he was in a music lesson and the teacher played one of the chilli records and my son named the song and the teacher was astounded and she said how do you know that and he said I have a older brother .
. Duran Duran had some of the best music I've ever heard in my life and the wild boys is at the top of the list for them! Not only their music was Kick-Ass but there videos really did them Justice they were truly the wild boys of rock and roll! WILD BOYS ALWAYSSSS SHINE!
Born in 1979 ,this song Is a legend
Start to finish this song is amazing
Hi I Recommend a Song called 'the Bond villain' By Robert Nix
This song and video are just works of pure art.
Either that or pure 80’s excess at its epitome. I guess a bit of both.
The most expensive music video made until 1995, Michael Jackson’s “Scream” video
Um, you mean, "Black Or White" and "November Rain". :) Then, "Scream".
@@alexkx8599 Madonna's "Express Yourself" video, directed by David Fincher, topped it, too. This was still an immensely ambitious video for 1984, though. Russell Mulcahy had such a great visual sense back then.
And the funny thing is that mj's video drew inspiration of duran duran's.white lines video directed by nick egan
Still love Wild Boys the most.
