"Nice" is the 34th single by English rock band Duran Duran, released in 2005. It was the third single to be lifted from the group's Astronaut album.
Reception
David Medsker of PopMatters said "if there is a single moment where things fall seamlessly into place on Astronaut, it is 'Nice', a magnificent melding of Andy's power chords, Nick's wall of synths, and John's octave-jumping disco bass that recalls the best moments of Rio all rolled into one. It's not particularly complex, but neither was 'Hold Back the Rain', a fan favorite to this day. 'Nice' is simple in all the right ways and, like all good pop songs, it knows when to quit, with a cold ending at a mere three minutes and 27 seconds. The label is nuts if they don't release this as the second single."[1]
