Duran Duran Flipbook

getback.com — “Nick Rhodes, Simon Le Bon, and three dudes named Taylor — Roger, Andy, and John (none of them related) — were kind of the Beatles of the ’80s. They were cited as the biggest band in what MTV called “The Second British Invasion,” earning 21 singles in the Billboard Hot 100 and selling over 100 million records.”

I would call them the “second British Invasion”. Duran Duran was definitely an 80’s A-List act but comparing them to the Beatles is laughable hype. Your proof should be that Duran Duran did not even survive the 90s where as the Beatles are timeless. They are a once in a decade phenomenon. The closest thing to Beatles type fame in the 80s was Michael Jackson.

My wife told me that one of her friends had a poster of one of the guys in Duran Duran. While a group of her girl friends sat around talking about how much they loved the group, she said she wasn’t attracted to them and the friendship was over.

Looking back its easy to say “man, those meterosexuals suck.” But in the 80s Duran Duran were gods outside of any genre description.

I’m must admit that I am an out the closet flamer for Hungry like the wolf who the hell would not have sex with Duran
