Duran Duran(named after a character in Roger Vadim's sci-fi classic, Barbarella) are an electronic pop-rock band that were part of the new wavemusic movement in the early 1980s. Created by Nick Rhodes(keyboards) and John Taylor(bass) in 1978, with the later addition of Roger Taylor(drums), Andy Taylor(guitar), and Simon Le Bon(lead vocals), the band have sold over 70 million records and are the most commercially successful of the new romanticbands. Their songs were cheerful, hook-laden pop that fared well on the radio, but what many remember best about Duran Duran are their iconic music videos. Though many of the videos were tongue-in-cheek, the band never quite escaped the glamorous and decadent jet set image their early videos projected. The band spent on an average more than a six figure sum (£), on first 3 albums videos (each) alone.

Friends of mine
They said they were friends of mine
Said they were passing time
More like a waste of time
Close the door
I said close the door
Ive told you twice before
What are you waiting for
Georgie davies is coming out
No more heroes we twist and shout
Oh no not me Im not too late
And I know that Im not waiting anymore
Rocky picture has lost his gun
Leave him out now hes having fun
Oh no not me Im not too late
And I know that Im not taking any more (hey hey)
Silly lies, dont have to advertise
When will you realise, Im sick of you alibis
Running cold, the waters running cold
I thinks its time you were told
I think youre growing old
