Dear Poptastic Readers,
In case you are just joining us, we have been counting down our Top 101 Songs of 2021.
#17 in our Top 101 Songs of 2021 is: “More Joy!” by Duran Duran featuring Chai. Click on the name of the song to read about what we originally wrote about the song earlier this year.
Written by:
Produced by:
Why: This song is really wonky and quirky. We absolutely love it! One of the strangest aspects of the song is that there is only one real chorus after the second verse, if you want to call it the second verse as it is about half of the first verse. The end is similar to the main chorus, but not exact. We said this was like a sequel to their 1997 song “Electric Barbarella.” We are sure others will have Duran Duran’s “Anniversary” high on their list. We like that song and it definitely feels like classic Duran Duran. “More Joy!” just feels like future Duran Duran.
Watch: There is a cartoon music video that is very hypnotizing and fun. Check it out ...
Live performance: So we were looking for a live performance of this song from the band and didn't find one. We did find a Duran Duran cover band who performed it in a club and it was actually not bad. We liked how the audience shouted Chai's "More Joy!" parts. Have a look ...
Chart History: Had Poptastic Confessions been around in the 80s, Duran Duran would have probably had few #1s on our year end countdowns. In our chart history Duran Duran have been in the Top 21 one time before in Poptastic Confessions ...
"Pressure Off" Janelle Monáe and Nile Rodgers was #8 in 2015
