Duran Duran and Justin Timberlake? Hmm... Mildly Amusing.

Duran Duran ft. Justin Timberlake- Night Runner (produced by Timbaland)

Duran Duran, how low you have fallen. Resorting to a Timbaland beat to revitalise your career? Shameless...

As much as I know I should despise this song, it has 'guilty pleasure' written all over it in big bold letters. The calling card for it is that for every horrible element there is something to bring it back from the brink. Take Simon Le Bon's lyrics, for example. These are truly horrible:

"You're nocturnal, only come out at night,
Can I put my hands on you tonight, I must be feeling something"

However, Justin Timberlake saves the day when he laces his voice over Le Bon's Its obviously no mistake that the song sounds like an extended out-take from 'FutureSex/LoveSounds'.

Timbaland easily completes his normal task of dropping a great beat, which at least makes the song interesting for a few more seconds than is usual for a Duran Duran song. Check it out; you wont (/will) be disappointed... Duran Duran's latest album 'Red Carpet Massacre' is out next month...
