1. Gotta go with Wild Boys

:D

Hot. Yum.

[JackBeck]

3. Agreed. n/t

[SKKY]

2. Since it was on, like, every mix tape I ever made a love interest when I was young...

..."Is There Something I Should Know?" would have to be it for me. Although, there aren't many songs by DD I don't like.

[SKKY]

4. 32 Views...

Yet only 5 votes. If you're gonna view it, why not vote? :shrug:

[borlis]

5. I must go with Rio...

It reminds me of when we first got MTV and they actually played videos ALL DAY LONG! Imagine that!

6. My Own Way

[SKKY]

9. That's a good one! If this were a 2 volume set, that would be on there...

...along with songs like "Friends of Mine", "Hold Back The Rain", and "The Seventh Stranger".

14. This one is my favorite too,

but I voted for "Rio."

7. Come Undone

but since it's not on the list I voted for Rio.

[bicentennial_baby]

8. Oooh, I love that one!

:thumbsup:

[Alexander]

10. Rio is excellent.

[drmeow]

11. You gotta add

The Chauffeur

New Moon on Monday

Planet Earth

Friends of Mine

Come Undone

Of the ones you have - Wild Boys and Save a Prayer are favs of mine

[SKKY]

12. I only had so many, but yes, those are excellent as well...

...I was torn between "Skin Trade" and "The Chauffer".

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

16. I would like to add ...

Secret Oktober
Faith In This Colour
Tel Aviv
Love Voodoo
Shadows On Your Side

And damn it where is my mofo PLANET EARTH :)

[SKKY]

17. Those are all great songs...

...but even you, being the highly enlightened Duran Duran listener that you are, would have to admit that those are songs most ardent Duran Duran fans would be hard pressed to identify. Now, Planet Earth is another story. If I had one more slot on the poll, that would have made it.

[tluvstigr]

13. I had to go with girls on film...

brings back happy memories... :toast:

[SKKY]

18. And next to "The Chauffer", their hottest video hands down!

[last_texas_dem]

19. "Ordinary World"

Of their eighties stuff, my favorite is probably "Save a Prayer."

[Kool Kitty]

20. What-no "Planet Earth"?

[TK421]

21. Gotta be Girls on Film...but I like the other ones

[pinniped]

22. Who's the other 50% that voted for Hungry Like a Wolf?

?

[BarenakedLady]

23. To hard to choose!

So many good ones. I was going to grow up and marry John Taylor.

[BeachBaby]

24. Save A Prayer.

Thanks for doing this poll, Sailor. Brought back some happy memories of me and my girlfriends, slumber parties, learning new dance moves, and talking about boys.
I graduated high school in 1987, so my high school years were filled with Duran Duran albums. :)

[Dr. Strange]

25. New Religion

26. Wait how could I forget....

Where is "Union of the Snake"?:shrug:

[Lavender Brown]

27. Hungry Like the Wolf

I saw them live a few years ago, they were so much fun! :bounce:

28. Is this a good thread to retell my dissing Simon Lebon story?

I'll assume your answer is yes.

So my girlfriend is the biggest Duranee of all time. In fact, she published her own 80's retro magazine and got to interview John Taylor in his home.

So a few years ago she wins back stages passes to Duran Duran at Jones Beach. But it was the 2nd set of tickets she won from the radion station that week so she gave them my name. Then her childhood friend, also a huge Duranee, decided to come up that weekend, so my gf gives us the backstage passes and I have the supreme mission of getting John Taylor's autograph on the magazine cover that she published.

I was so zoned in on getting John Taylor's autograph, that when Simon jumped in front of me, all eager to sign something, I doltishly waved him on and said, that's okay, you can go to the next person. He actually looked a little disappointed for a split second.

I really heard it when I got back to my gf. She was like, "Yes, I wanted John Taylor's autograph! But that doesn't mean I didn't want Simons!"

It's been several years. I hope they've both forgiven me.
