About Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)

"Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)" is the 21st single by Duran Duran, and the first single from the 1990 Liberty album. Having finished the 1980s with the Decade singles compilation, Duran Duran found the 1990s a new challenge, in which success would initially elude them. The lukewarm success of "Violence of Summer" would shadow the band for the next few years until 1993's "Ordinary World" returned them to chart success. The single reached number two in Italy but fared poorly in other countries, reaching number 20 in the United Kingdom and number 64 in the United States.  more »
