The Reflex topped the charts

June 23, 1984
Duran Duran started a two week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with The Reflex, the group’s first US No.1, was taken from their third album, Seven and the Ragged Tiger.

Duran Duran’s album Seven And The Ragged Tiger had already spawned two hit singles: Union Of The Snake and New Moon on Monday. Nick Rhodes had been convinced that The Reflex was purely an album track, though other band members thought it had potential. It wasn’t until they invited Nile Rodgers to remix it that they decided to release the transformed version as a single.
