Every morning I watched this at the top of the charts before going to school
So I started re listening. Fabulously dated. Ace. Anyone else who used to love them? Delve back in...
First band I ever saw live 🙂
You definitely picked two of the safer videos!
Yes, I listened, and yes, I loved them.
Barbarella?
Chauffeur and Save a Prayer are both classics.
They did some excellent songs: Neither of those are amongst them.
Saw them live just a few years. Great fun. Can still sing but a fair bit porkier than he used to be!
I wouldn't post up Seven and the Raggered Tiger album. I used to listen to that on my stacked stereo system in its fake wood effect cabinet/smoked glass door 🙂 my Mum strangely never shouted turn it down
Reading this has made me hungry, like a wolf.
I used to like thaembefore I discovered rock - the videos that never made TOTP were amazing when I was 13!
Well, they made a reasonable fist of this:
Not as good a cover as the Eurythmics, but I like it...

Barbarella?
Duran Duran at work on the Excessive Machine
Ahhh, Milo O'Shea, Legend!
I loved his part in the film version of Joe Orton's play, Loot
Edit: Hanoi Jane was a bit tidy like, back in yoot - I would!
It was all downhill from here.
Lots of great songs, some beautiful crafted melodies.
All part of growing up.
Did prefer Powerstation though, but good choice to bring them back to my attention.
Hated them. . seriously don't understand how anyone can stand his whiny voice.
Liked a bit of Arcadia in their time.
I quite liked the first album - in fact I bought it.
seriously don't understand how anyone can stand his whiny voice.
Heh
I used to sing (still do on the odd occasion) and have been told I sound like Le Bon. It doesn't help that the songs I used to write for a particular project were very much of that 80s ilk so the voice was a good fit.
Being my voice, I hate it and was never that keen on Le Bon's strained tones but it kind of works when you listen to it as a whole. Duran Duran, that is, not my shit.
I had a mate who lived in North Carolina, hugely into music although mostly rock/metal. we were talking about gigs one night and hes seen Metallica,Korn,Godsmack, Marilyn Manson etc a few times but his fav gig of all time was Duran Duran back in college in 1989.
I think they're actually better than I thought they were at the time.
