Duran Duran--- "Rio"

Does this need introduction? Quintessential DD from the 80s (1982)! This is the song "Rio" from the album with the same title by that band called Duran Duran.

More on this video...
The following excerpt is taken from Wiki:

{Duran Duran travelled to the island of Antigua with director Russell Mulcahy in May of 1982 to film the vivid music video for "Rio", where the yacht scenes were filmed on the bay at English Harbour, the beach scenes at Miller's Beach, and the bit with the raft at Shirley Heights. They also filmed a video for the album track "Waiting for the Nightboat" at the time, and both appeared on the Duran Duran video album released in 1983.

"Rio" featured iconic images of the band in Antony Price suits, singing and playing around on a yacht speeding over the crystal blue Caribbean Sea. Short segments show band members trying to live out their assorted daydreams, only to be teased, tormented, and made fools of by a body-painted vixen. The London model in the video is credited as "Reema", Reema was a model for Models One agency, of half english, half lebanese origin[citation needed].}

Enjoy!
