Talk:Notorious (Duran Duran song)

Notorious/Higher Love[edit]

The uncanny resemblance of the video for the Notorious single with Steve Winwood's "Higher Love" is not a mere coincidence or a shameless robbery - both videos were directed by Peter Kagan and Paula Grief. If this video is a copy, it's only a copy that Kagan and Grief did of their own ideas. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.252.194.224 (talk • contribs) 16:50, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Agreed. Sloppy on their part, and maybe on Duran's for not realizing/forbidding it, but not accidental. — Catherine\^talk 04:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

guitar sample[edit]

It sounds to me like the rhythm guitar in this song is from a James Brown song, "Soul Power" (also an instrumental by the J.B.'s titled "Soul Power '74"), which seems very possible, considering how much his stuff gets sampled. It also might be just very similar chords. Anyone know anything about this? M. Stern 20:07, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)[edit]

Has anyone of Duran Duran referred to the fact the bassline of this song was quite similar to the one of Sly and the Family Stone's Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)? --223.135.108.46 (talk) 16:55, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
