Never cared for Duran Duran. Simon's voice is lame.

I'm sure you're playing this with a heavy dose of irony, but I've gotta say, I'm happy that you did! When I was eight years old, I wanted so much to dye my hair brown in the back and blonde in the front because Simon LeBon just looked so cool. hahaha. Thank God I had a mother who put a stop to that idea.

I would say this fits in well with what we regular RP listeners seem to like. But like I said -- I don't want to start hearing it all the time. ;)


my thoughts exactly!

Mmmm....the stench of new romantic 80's....that synth sound...makes me hungry like a wolf.... I like it for retro-quasi-kitsch nostalgic reasons...I think.....

I couldn't stand (or sit) quietly by -- this was my first '2' (usually if I don't like something, I just don't rate em -- out of respect for the artist actually) but this one takes the cake for me. Please, go real slow on playing those Duran Duran 'songs'.
Thanks,

Oh my God, was not expecting this after "La Femme D'Argent" by Air. I'm 13 again and madly in love with Simon LeBon....
...20 years later it's kind of nice to hear!

Please No. Stop that warbling sound... no not LeBons weak voice, that strange warbling theme that runs through this terribly hohum if not worse song.

Remember singing along to that when I must have been about 13 and not having any idea what they were talking about!

Great to hear the song again though, it reminds me of the time when I wore a bad frilly shirt and velvet knickerbockers to their gig in Sydney (it was 1983)....and knew every word to their first two albums Edited By Allyson at 3:48 pm on 11/07/2002

Absolutely crucial point. And an area where Bill and RP are so skilled.

This song fits RP well. Always liked this one. "Rio" and "Hungry..." are guilty pleasures. Not, too me, as guilty: "Wild Boys" or "All She Wants Is", both probably over the RP line, but I wouldn't mind hearing them in a late night set. Btw, cannot stand "Reflex", "Union of the Snake" stuff. Quite the polarizing band I suppose, even for some of us who like some of their stuff. ;)

Yep. Except I just turned 50.

Just hearing it now was like a breath of fresh air. But, then, most of what I hear on RP has that affect on me.Edited By Spalted at 4:21 pm on 8/19/2002

Best Duran Duran, could hear this frequently.

Reminds me that Larry King used this on his late night radio show.
