Duran Duran – Paint It Black – the sound of a cold, orange, and black autumn

This composition will take up literally 2 minutes and 38 seconds of your time. But it will not leave you indifferent. Not only is this a very dramatic piece by the famous Rolling Stones. The melody and pulsation are preserved. It also features the beautiful voice of Duran Duran. An excellent pop version. Very rich. In the style of pop music. And this is from their gothic album Danse Macabre, which I really appreciate listening to.

Beautiful melody. Synthesizer. The synthesizer sounds. This is their own version. With its own new atmosphere. This time, Duran Duran is moving more into gothic territory, into a dark and melancholic sound. The synthesizer doesn't sound like an organ, but it's a bit similar. And it's in the background. There's an electric guitar. And the singer sings beautifully. A stunning gothic album from a famous pop group. They are talented and high-quality musicians.

Darkness is happening to me. I see a door. It's red. In the setting sun. A new sound. It still sounds like a pop song. But there's a dark tone to it. The synthesizer is reminiscent of an organ or something medieval, coming from the depths of civilization. From the Dark Ages. In the quieter moments of the song—and there are some—the synthesizer is in the foreground. The singer's voice and the synthesizer. And then everything goes into noisy pop. Guitar, drums. And the singer's voice. The bass guitar works mechanically. These are the traits of synthetic and technical music.

Does a dark event happen to you? The sun is setting. The composition sounds new. With new content. Although the lyrics are still the same. Black is night. Black is cold. I'm surprised they even squeezed the song into two minutes. Or is the original like that too? I didn't pay attention to it. The noisy pop part is good. It's like gothic rock, like Susie. Duran Duran also sing this song—SpellBound on this disc. Energetic and pulsating, yet cold and gloomy.

Your whole world is one black color. Cold sound. Synths. And a noisy pop section. Chaotic enough to be like Siouxsie and the Banshee. The song is up-tempo. Like SpellBound. After Spellbound, this is the second song I listen to often. There's a great guitar moment. It's as if everything is repeating itself. And the guitar emphasizes what the singer was singing a second ago. From the quiet part, everything explodes into a noisy part. And that's it. Cold, noisy, synthesized sound, calm sound.

The singer's voice is very cool. Very professional. And he sings well. He simply sings well, and his voice is excellent to listen to. It's quite high-pitched. It can have a whining effect. It's as if he's crying in places. Or complaining. A little hysterical. The voice conveys a lot of emotion. The phrases flow well, phrase after phrase. Every phrase sung by the singer is a masterpiece. A superbly executed rendition of a famous song, you could say. Like a good storyteller, the singer tells us a dark story full of tears. Although there's room for sunshine, too. At sunset. It's getting colder, even though it's summer.

Lots of noise. Fanfares. Drums actively add to the noise. The guitar sounds noisy. Not very clear. And all this creates an effect of chaos. Lost. The singer sings emotionally. The chaos in the music is audible. But it starts very rhythmically. It's a rhythm you can sing along to for the first few seconds. The famous riff, like the Rolling Stones, plays at the beginning. It's a very short but cool guitar rhythm. You shouldn't skip it. It sounds captivating. It's part of the original song.

A cold autumn sound. The sound of autumn. Of tears. And of autumn rain. Bringing not coolness, but a constant chill. Leaves are falling. Beautiful, but at some point there are only a few leaves left. The last leaves fall to the ground. Into the teeming water. And drowning there. Orange trees, but already quite black. This music is about that for me personally. And I love to be sad. I like this trait. To shed tears. It's healthy. To feel this moment of autumn. This disc, Danse Macabre, will help all autumn lovers with this. Not golden autumn, but rainy orange and black. I really miss the shaky mood. I really like it.
