Duran Duran - Last Chance On The Stairway

Album: Rio

Genre: New Wave/ Pop

Released: 1982

Recorded: AIR Studios London, England

Lyrics:

I don't remember quite how I met you wasn't long ago

I just get a picture of sun in your eyes the waves in your hair

Maybe it's something said in a movie or you could've said last night

It just took me out on a limb and I don't really know what I'm doing here

And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me

I'm out of reach I'll talk if it feels right I've had my last chance on the stairway

Funny it's just like a scene out of Voltaire twisting out of sight

Cause when all the curtains are pulled back we'll turn and see the circles we've traced

Ain't no game (ooo-ooo) when you're playing with fire

It doesn't seem right that we fight so the party runs all night

And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me

I'm out of reach I'll talk if it feels right I'm so nervous to say tell me can't you see

And if you want I'll fall off forever I can't say no more baby dance with me

And please don't say leave it till later I've had my last chance on the stairway

Wonder why (wonder why ooo-ooo) what makes me rise so high

Maybe it's something they put in your perfume or the look in your eyes

It could be the atmosphere sinking ooo I don't even know what you're thinking

I don't even know what you're drinking but it keeps this heaven alive

And sometimes I'm caught in a landslide and my beats so in time can you look at me

I'm out of reach I'll talk if it feels right I'm so nervous to say tell me can't you see

And if you want I'll fall off forever I can't say no more baby dance with me

And please don't say leave it till later I've had my last chance on the stairway

Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway

Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway

Last chance on the stairway, last chance on the stairway

Last chance on the stairway

TYSON VOCALSBASS

I always wondered if it's really John playing bass on these early albums, the guys were so young then.

You guys are right on. I like how he returned to his 'busy" style on All You Need is Now. Girl Panic just about made me jump out of my seat..great bassist!

I agree. Taylor has an awesome bass style. I wish some of the Indie Electronica of these days used bass like Duran Duran did. That funky beeboppin' sound is a cool reminder of bands from the late 70s - early 80s.

A really great song. The Rio album was the first Duran Duran album I bought - worth every penny! Reminds me of my teenage years......

oh yes some very good music back then even if they weren't all in the same genres but the stuff they include in 80s compilations like Lionel Richie and Michael Jackson they can dump at the curb (just my own tastes).

You're so right!!!! DD wouldn't be the same without John's distinctive bass...! Great song,indeed!!!! Great band of a great era in music!!!! Not a day passes, without listening to all the great bands of the 80's!!! (DD, DM, Def Leppard, AC/DC...)

My 2 fave D.D. Songs was this one and Lonely in your nightmare and these were the 2 least talked about songs on one of the best albums ever made-such a shame.
