"Decadance" is a megamix by Duran Duran, released as the B-side on the band's 20th single "Burning the Ground" by Capitol-EMI in 1989.
An extended version was released later as a promotional only UK 12" vinyl single in 1990.
About the megamix[]
The megamix is more instrumental in nature. The track uses lyrics taken from eight Duran Duran singles from the 1980s, written by the five original band members.
"Decadance" was the B-side to "Burning The Ground", also a megamix released to promote to the Decade: Greatest Hits album and the Decade: Video in 1989.
The lyric segments of the song include the "why" bits from "The Reflex", the "no, no" from "Notorious", "wild" from "The Wild Boys", the chorus from "All She Wants Is", and the solo from "Save A Prayer", mixed with "Rio", with a little bit of "Skin Trade", as well as some of the suggestive screams from "Hungry Like the Wolf".
The 12" promotional only single released in 1990 was issued with its own unique black & white logo. This single contain two recordings of "Decadance", including an extended 7:57 minute version.
