Hungry Like The Wolf Video (MV)




"Hungry Like the Wolf" is a song by English new wave band Duran Duran. Written by the band members, the song was produced by Colin Thurston for the group's second studio album, Rio (1982). The song was released on 4 May 1982 as the band's fifth single in the United Kingdom, and 8 June 1982 in the United States. It reached No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart, and received a platinum certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).

The music video for "Hungry Like the Wolf" was directed by Russell Mulcahy and filmed in Sri Lanka. Although the band initially failed to break into the US market, MTV placed the "Hungry Like the Wolf" video into heavy rotation.

Subsequently, the group gained much exposure; the song peaked at the No. 3 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1983, and Duran Duran became an international sensation. The video won the first Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video in 1984.

The 2015 song "Hey Everybody!" by 5 Seconds of Summer contains elements from "Hungry Like the Wolf", and Duran Duran were given a writing credit on the song.

Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Wolf Lyrics




Is anybody hungry?

Dark in the city night is a wire
Steam in the subway the earth is a fire
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do
Woman you want me give me a sign
And catch me breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do
High blood drumming on your skin it's so tight
You feel my heat I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do, do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

We're burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
I'm strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

We're burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
We're strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf
