"I Don't Want Your Love" on YouTube

"I Don't Want Your Love" is a song by the English pop rock band Duran Duran, released on 19 September 1988 as the first single from their fifth studio album, Big Thing (1988).

Cash Box called it "a serviceable single" with "a funky bass and percussive counterpoint" and "more of a mixed vocal arrangement, relying less on [Simon] Lebon's strained style."[5]

Music video

[edit]

The video for "I Don't Want Your Love" was filmed by director Steve Lowe and produced by the Molotov Brothers, and first aired on September 26, 1988 (1988-09-26).[6]

The video features the band in a raucous courtroom filled with spectators and tabloid reporters, "testifying" by singing the song into the court's witness microphones. The instrumental bridge in the song is accompanied by images of a young man and woman dancing or fighting (or both).

The other musicians in the video are guitarist Warren Cuccurullo (playing Kamen's guitar part) and David Palmer, former drummer for ABC.

B-sides, bonus tracks and remixes

[edit]

The single version of "I Don't Want Your Love" was a remix by Shep Pettibone. It was backed by the album version for the B-side.

A UK promo 12″ includes the dub mix of "I Don't Want Your Love", which was unreleased elsewhere until 1999's Strange Behaviour remix collection (which strangely didn't use the lead 12″ mix entitled "Big mix").
