The video is very cool, a bit too long (7 minutes), but it’s worth watching it, enjoy !

Duran Duran - Falling Down Lyrics
Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now it’s a different storyline
Like the straw he is clutching
Why has the sky turned grey
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray
Scarred by disgrace, I know that its over
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught inside its own motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion
Why did the luck run dry
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
Because I’m falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
I don’t know…. Why…
Duran Duran - Falling Down Review
‘Falling Down’ sees the close collaboration of the band with the ‘trouser-snake’ himself Justin Timberlake making it one of his debut solo productions. The singles close collaboration also with renowned US producer Timbaland is of no surprise as he seems to consistently follow Timberlake from project to project further reaffirming their indelible partnership.

I think it’s a great song but it seems to fail the charts…
It was nš 2 in Italy and nš 6 in the Czchec Republic, but it’s only nš28 in the US radio charts and nš 52 in the UK charts…. Let’s see what will happend to the Red carpet massacre album… For me it’s a good album, but seems the DD fans are a bit confused,,,

God, this track is EXCEPTIONAL !!!!!!!!!!!
Been on my mind SO MUCH over the last few weeks,
Tonight I just had to quickly sit & work out the chords on my Olympic-White Fender Stratocaster !
Tried to match it to the actual key/pitch in the video…..
D(flat)/ B / G(flat)/(repeat)
then on “why has the sky turned grey” E / A (flat)minor 7th (repeat)
then ONE / A sus / leading to the chorus…..
“Because”… /D(flat)minor / E / B / G (flat)/ (repeat ALL Four)

In answer to ‘Bold’s comments (above) the REASON it failed (miserably) in the charts is because most “chart-buyers” would rather buy (& listen) to crap instead.
They wouldn’t know good music if it bit ‘em !!!!!!!!
It’s the old-adage “casting pearls before swine”.
