Lonely In Your Nightmare

"Lonely In Your Nightmare" is a Duran Duran song and the third track on their second album Rio.

About the song
This song was later remixed by David Kershenbaum for the US release of Rio, featuring, longer instrumental passages as well as additional lyrics not heard in the UK release. This version was also used for their music video, though the tempo of the song was slightly sped up. All CD pressings of Lonely In Your Nightmare have used the original UK album mix, rather than the US Album Remix.

Music video
The video for "My Own Way" was set to the fast-paced single version of the song. It was rarely played on MTV or VH1, and was quickly overshadowed by the other more famous videos for the Rio album. Like those videos, "My Own Way" was directed by Russel Mulcahy.

"My Own Way" was filmed in a studio decorated entirely in red, black and white. The band performs the song while flamenco dancers twirl in the background, and a colorful parrot sits on the keyboards.

Small snippets of this video was seen on the projection screen in the video for "Is There Something I Should Know?" released in 1983, and it was part of the band's 1983 video album Duran Duran. However, it was not included on the video compilations Decade (1989) or Greatest (1999).
