Love them!

Come undone is my favourite, followed by Planet Earth, Girls on Film, A View to A Kill, The Wild Boys!

Had tickets to see them in concert about 10 years ago, but my child became ill and we didn't go! Gutted!

Wouldnt say they were synth pioneers but the first two albums were cracking.

Favourite track? Tough to pick one but I tend to lean towards album tracks

Friends of Mine

The Chauffeur

New Religion

Mind you I love their version of Lou Reed's Perfect Day

Random but nonetheless invaluable Duran Duran factoid: Did you know that John Taylor (bassist) and Roger Taylor (drums) and Andy Taylor (former guitarist) are entirely unrelated?

What are the chances eh?

Also note: Durans, Roger Taylor does NOT in fact play drums for Queen

No need to thank me

Hated them back in the day but have grown to appreciate them a little more now...only really know the singles but picks of the crop for me would be...

Rio

Save A Prayer

Planet Earth

Girls On Film

Le Bon almost drowned during the making of the Wild Boys video apparently

And whoever mentioned View To A Kill and the Aha song as best Bond themes....are you stark raving mad? Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live And Let Die for starters are all miles better

Something along the lines of the opening scene from the Bowie film "The hunger".

TBH didn’t know DD covered it, but thanks for introducing me to it, it’s awesome, & agree much better than the original. Is it on an album, or only a song they play live? When I closed my eyes it could have been Erasure!!"
I've not seen it on albums. I've got the vinyl 7" of the reflex. I'm sure it's the b side off that song. Been a while since I played vinyl lol. X

"I can remember watching the video for Girls on Film at my friends. Her grandma was disgusted, we on the other hand were swooning.

Nick Rhodes was my teen crush.

My sister went to see them in the 80's, I must of been 12ish and she said I was too young to go. I never forgave her for that!!

Presume that was the clean version as at grandma's?

They were sexy in a page three kind of way. If you want low down, dirty sleaze you need Soft Cell. "Non Stop Erotic Cabaret" is one of the perviest recordings ever made and I still play it now

"Would anyone like to guess where they got their name from..?

Barbarella. I think Duran Duran was a character in the film.

I see I've met my match once again lolla lol. I can see I'm going to have to try harder next time..

I'd rather dance than fence

how about a slow dance to "Save a Prayer"

Why lola my dear accept your invitation gladly... I must worn you though last time I danced to Duran Duran I scored a kiss outside the school disco lol

One of those big teeth clacking ones

I bet you could have had any woman in that scout hut

That's uncanny lola... was it you?

Yes I was quite a vision to behold lol the older I get the better I was... not to mention the more hair I had
