Duran Duran - Planet Earth

2007-02-21 23

"Planet Earth" was the first single by the pop/rock band Duran Duran, from their first album Duran Duran.

The song was released on 2 February, 1981, and reached #12 on the UK Singles Chart on 21 February. It was also a Top 10 hit in Australia, reaching #8.

"Planet Earth" begins with a slow synthesised sweep backed with electronic rhythm, but the real rhythm section of throbbing bass and crisp drums soon kick in.

Muted guitar carries the up-and-down melodic hook of the song as the singer joins in.
