This was called to my attention as evidence of why Duran Duran might not be so bad after all. Just sayin' - kinda hard not to have more respect for them (or John at least) after reading that.

Oh, dear. I have to admit it. I was a Durannie, too.

I was a Nick grrl, though. He was clearly the smart one with the good business sense. ;)

Oh, man, NOW I’m going to have that song in my head all night! It is rather dismaying that I remembered all the words to “New Moon” – without having played the YouTube blurb.
I wasn’t even a Duran Duran fan back then!

You’re evil, just evil!

I have to say, though, your remarks about men in eyeliner brought up visions of Capt. Jack Sparrow joining Duran Duran for a mashup. Can’t you see it? I mean, I remember Johnny Depp being able to sing as far back as Jump Street…Duran Duran would NOT be a stretch.

Ick, time to find that Stephanie Meyer playlist I’m putting together for the Breaking Dawn party next week. Maybe the vampires will exorcise Duran Duran.

Back in the early 80's I preferred music with sharper teeth. Stuff like this, The Lords Of The New Church - Open Your Eyes. Closest I got to Duran Duran was a comic reference to them by Dweezil Zappa on his first record, well that & "Barbarella". Wang Chung cured me of MTV & "hair metal".

All this talk of vinyl imports is making me want to go home, wrap myself in my Duran Duran sateen roadie jacket, and read my “All the Words” lyric book and concert programs from the Notorious tour.

And yes, Red Carpet Massacre is covered in awesome sauce.

‘Playing With Uranium’ is THE great lost single; if anyone on this thread continues to scoff at them, I implore you to spend the 99 cents at iTunes for just this one track.

“Anyway: Enjoy your stinkin’ Duran Duran, you freaks.”

You tell ‘em, Journey-boy. Hey, do you know if there’s an emulator for the PC for the old “Journey Escape” Atari game? Nuthin’ beat spending a few hours after school trying to help Steve and the boys escape from thousands of screaming pixelated fans!

Sorry about the smugness, there. My husband is not really as hot as John Taylor, (I’m not sure anyone is :) ); but he sure works for me!

Nope, but I don’t need to trade. When my son (about 5 years old at the time) first saw the pictures on John’s “Trust the Process” website, he asked me if that was his dad! :0

John is definitely my fave, though.
