"'''Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)'''" is a song by English [[new wave music|new wave]] band [[Duran Duran]], the first single from their sixth studio album, ''[[Liberty (Duran Duran album)|Liberty]]'' (1990). Having finished the 1980s with the ''[[Decade: Greatest Hits|Decade]]'' singles compilation, Duran Duran found the 1990s a new challenge, in which success would initially elude them. The lukewarm success of "Violence of Summer" would shadow the band for the next few years until 1993's "[[Ordinary World (song)|Ordinary World]]" returned them to chart success. The single reached number two in Italy but fared poorly in other countries, reaching number 20 in the United Kingdom and number 64 in the United States.
"'''Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)'''" is a song by the English [[pop rock]] band [[Duran Duran]], released on 23 July 1990 as the first single from their sixth studio album, ''[[Liberty (Duran Duran album)|Liberty]]'' (1990). The single reached number two in Italy but fared poorly in other countries, reaching number 20 in the United Kingdom and number 64 in the United States.


==About the song==
==Release==
"Violence of Summer" was released on 23 July 1990 in the United Kingdom as a [[7-inch single]], a [[12-inch single]], a [[CD single]], and a [[cassette single]].<ref name="MW"/> Two weeks later, on 6 August, another 12-inch single featuring "Throb" as a [[A-side and B-side|B-side]] was issued.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=New Singles|magazine=Music Week|page=27|date=4 August 1990}}</ref> In Japan, a [[Mini CD single|mini-CD single]] was issued on 10 August 1990.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.oricon.co.jp/prof/112139/products/270429/1/|title=夏のバイオレンス {{!}} デュラン・デュラン|trans-title=Violence of Summer {{!}} Duran Duran|publisher=[[Oricon]]|language=ja|access-date=30 August 2023}}</ref>
"Violence of Summer" lyrically contains familiar Duran Duran themes: fleeting romance in the face of sexual politics, and mars-meets-venus peculiarities between the genders. Le Bon continues to set these preoccupations into more realist scenarios, challenging himself to leave behind the opaque mysticism of the band's first five studio albums. The song was released on 23 July 1990 in the United Kingdom.<ref>{{cite magazine|title=New Singles|magazine=[[Music Week]]|page=27|date=21 July 1990}}</ref>

==Music video==
The end of the 1980s marked a profound change in Duran Duran's video fortunes. [[MTV]]'s interest had shifted to younger bands, and their format was changing in any case. [[VH1]] was friendlier, but was more interested in the band's classic videos than in their current products. Duran Duran found it increasingly difficult to get a new video played where the public could see it.

The video for "Violence of Summer" was filmed in Paris by the young directing duo Big TV! (more conventionally known as Andy Delaney and Monty Whitebloom). The band, with paler skin and shorter hair than before, plays energetically on a set constructed to look like a bumper-car rig (mirroring the amusement park theme of the album sleeve), while models (including [[Tess Daly]]) in [[Blond#platinum blond|platinum blonde]] wigs hang about outside looking seductive. Newly muscular guitarist [[Warren Cuccurullo]] is almost unrecognizable to fans who were accustomed to his formerly waif-like appearance.

==Other appearances==
Due to its lack of chart success, "Violence of Summer" has failed to appear on the compilation ''Greatest''.
However, the music video for this song was secretly included in the DVD edition of ''Greatest'' as an easter egg, although it is intercut with some interviews to the band about the Liberty album.

Apart from the single, "Violence of Summer" has also appeared on:
