Simon Le Bon: "Ordinary World" is a song about trying to get over the death of a best friend. And putting it in words freed me. Absolutely. It really worked for me, emotionally and mentally. Everybody who heard it could apply it to something in their life and it meant something to them - but, for a totally different reason. And it became such an important song for us. And I think it only had that power to touch people because it meant so much to me

There's an ordinary world
00:00:04.668 --> 00:00:08.668
Somehow I have to find
00:00:08.668 --> 00:00:11.709
Ordinary World is a song
00:00:11.709 --> 00:00:14.793
about trying to get over
00:00:14.793 --> 00:00:19.002
the death of a best friend
00:00:19.002 --> 00:00:22.918
And putting it in words freed me absolutely
00:00:22.918 --> 00:00:28.002
It really worked for me emotionally and mentally
00:00:28.002 --> 00:00:29.501
Everybody who heard it
00:00:29.501 --> 00:00:31.668
could apply it to something in their life
00:00:31.668 --> 00:00:34.209
and it meant something to them
00:00:34.209 --> 00:00:36.002
but for a totally different reason
00:00:36.002 --> 00:00:39.709
And it became such an important song for us
00:00:39.709 --> 00:00:43.376
And I think it only had that power to touch people
00:00:43.376 --> 00:00:46.002
because it meant so much to me
