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.

Hot Head Lyrics

Duran Duran

Here in the shadows where we stand watching lady watching man
Reading through pictures as they roll we see the planet lose control
Hothead evolution non-stop evolution
Hothead evolution non-stop evolution hothead
Time will change the picture about time, time will change the picture
Power to change the point of view but what is fake and what is true
Blow by blow you're telling me you'll change the course of history
Hothead evolution non-stop evolution hothead
Hothead evolution non-stop evolution hothead, hothead
Time, time
I turn you on you turn me off right now I'm suffering from this culture shock
Spread confusion wherever you can with shaking heads and shaking hands
Use propoganda to manipulate when there's mega bucks you protect the state
And the body break and the body tumble so you build it up and you watch it crumble
Time, time will change the picture evolution non-stop evolution
About time, time will change the picture evolution non-stop evolution
About time, time will change the picture evolution non-stop
