This is my all time favourite single from Duranduran, from their best album Big Thing. I'm happy everytime I listen to it, and I've done it millions of times! But, o poor of me, I've never listen to it live the way it has to be. I invite you to listen it live during the last tour inside what they called 'electro set': it's the opposite side to the unplugged versions and it sounds more than amazing. You can type it on you tube. It really worths it!!!. César from Spain. Hola! This is my all time favourite single from Duranduran, from their best album Big Thing.

Armed with an explosive intro, bubbly percussion, a bottom-heavy rhythm section, staccato horns, and a brief but fierce guitar solo, ‘I Don’t Want Your Love’ was a hell of an intro to Duran Mach II.” Could you imagine what mid-period Duran Duran would have been like without this song? Something tells me they’d be donning the unfortunate matching suits even earlier in their career!

I read it once, 20 years ago. The mind, she is hazy.

Side note-they immediately followed it up with "All She Wants Is." Great one-two-three punch, and they upped the synth factor on all of them tenfold that night. Such a wonderfully working combo that I've often stolen it to play during my DJ nights. Throwing it in between Kraftwerk tunes works wonders!

As for “Meet El Presidente,” I may be teaming up with Mark Berry again for a future White Label installment to cover that song…

I even have them here with their cute little Harvest labels! I'm sure you meant that "Meet El Presidente" broke their streak of hits, which it certainly did (despite another superior 7" mix!).
