From 80's Mick interview:
MICK JAGGER: "All my daughters' boyfriends dress like Duran Duran."
INTERVIEWER: "Do you like Duran Duran?"
[Jagger closes his eyes and stays silent]
INTERVIEWER: "Uh, yeah, right."
MICK JAGGER: "Come on, give me a break!"
I bet Duran Duran could have made Let's Work a hit - and convincing as well.
Mick Jagger made it a hit too.

I always thought the Subterranean Hawks were a lot better band from the Brum scene but the Durans were better looking and therefore got the breaks

Simply background noise while you were trying to get laid. No way in hell a bunch of guys would sit around and listen to it if you weren't trying to de-pants a female. Unless you were a puff, then it would be right up your alley.
Absolutely the best.Quote

saw Duran Duran in 2005 on their reunion tour. They put a low energy show on, the only one, who had power on stage was Andy Taylor (guitar-player). Maybe it was, because they performed in a venue, which is sold out with 12.000 people and they had less than 2.000 people.

I don't know, am I? I don't care enough about them to render an opinion. I'm just telling you what I used to do 28 years ago when their music was on. Instead of saying 'I liked them' or 'I didn't like them', or trying to 'describe their music' why don't you just describe the way you listened to them like I just did? It was background noise for me. That doesn't mean it was bad, it just means that I wasn't interested in it unless it involved a female. I didn't like it for music sake, but what it could do to others.

Duran Duran can be summed up by this quote by a band member (Nick Rhodes):
NICK RHODES: "I wanted to hire Simon Le Bon as our lead singer the second he walked in the door, before he even opened his mouth. I almost didn't care whether he could sing."
Why was I not surprised when I read that???

so whats the point. i've heard band members say they hired a guitar player before he even plugged in based on his look.

The point is those could only be really shitty bands.

I am aware that Wikipedia is not a valid source since it always seems to be missing something and/or gets things historically wrong. However, considering the context of this thread and the song of discussion, Let's Work, I figured Wiki could at least get that right - and they did - so I used it as a "source" of information.
