Duran Duran - "Hold Back The Rain"...

My friend Sean Drinkwater of Lifestyle and Freezepop interviewed Nick Rhodes the other day.  Very exciting and excellent interview too.  That Arcadia special edition sounds amazing.  "Hold Back The Rain" has always been my favourite Duran Duran song.  Huge, driving, joyous POP.  John Taylor's bassline is, per usual, fantastic and Andy's suspended chords are just pure pop.  I always get tremendously excited when I hear this at a club, one of those songs that wasn't *a hit* but everyone is always thrilled to hear.  Stay Beautiful used to play this, Bedsitland still does.
