Music from the Circle is a compilation album featuring Duran Duran, released in Australia by Sony Music on 8 April 2011.

About the album

This is a collection of songs chosen by Chrissie Swan, Yumi Stynes, Denise Drysdale and Gorgi Coghlan, hosts of the Australian Network 10 morning show The Circle. In addition to hit songs by artists including Michael Jackson, Prince, Olivia Newton-John and Duran Duran, the album contains a new song entitled "Circle Song", co-written by Clare Bowditch & Yumi Stynes and performed by Chrissie, Yumi, Denise & Gorgi.

Music from the Circle features a photo of Duran Duran on the front cover by Francesco Scavullo and includes "Hungry Like The Wolf", a single which reached no.5 on the Australian Kent Music Report Chart in 1982.

The decision to make a compilation album was simple given the presenter's love of music and the important part it plays in the show. They host regular music artists for interviews and performances and their ‘Music Appreciation Day’ segment has become a popular part of the show.

The hosts of The Circle wanted to use the opportunity of making an album to highlight a charity they feel strongly about. As such, a donation of $5,000 from the proceeds of the CD will be made to Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia.
