THE REFLEX is the 11th single by the band Duran Duran. It was released internationally by EMI Records in April 1984.
In a heavily remixed form, it was the band's second single to top the charts, after "Is There Something I Should Know?" in 1983.
The remixes for both the 7" and 12" singles were done by Nile Rodgers, of Chic fame. It was his first interaction with the band, and he would later go on to produce "The Wild Boys" single as well as the Notorious album.
