"Duel" is the second single by German synth-pop band Propaganda. The song was included on their first album, A Secret Wish.

Released in the United Kingdom in April 1985, it became their most successful single there, reaching no. 21. This led to the band making their sole appearance on the flagship BBC music programme, Top of the Pops, in June of that year. Drums and percussion were provided by Stewart Copeland.
