  • From near-death experiences to out of control drug use, Duran Duran's heyday was one crazy ride. But despite their string of '80s hits, the group's personal lives didn't always end up on top.

    It's a roller coaster for Duran. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and then Andy's illness. Duran wouldn't have been what they are without him

    I LOVED Duran Duran. I had posters of them from floor to ceiling in my bedroom. LOL. Andy has always been my favorite. I'm very sad about his cancer. The fact he couldn't attend the biggest night of his life makes me so sad.

      I miss those days too. Duran Duran are the band of my growth from teen to adult, from high school through university. The band or their projects have always been there for that decade. Listening to them before MTV and videos became popular, their image, music and concerts were always inspiring. Getting to meet them many times along with many other actors and musicians, have truly been a blessing. Special times that are unforgettable. The 80's growing up had its bumps in the road, but looking back I wouldn't change much.

    Simon LeBon's comment he made about if that Germany story happened today it would have been a major incident, really makes me think about other acts or groups. Some of the things you found out only because they wrote memoirs and were willing to open up about addiction and stuff like that would have been all over the internet back then. Just to clarify though, as someone with nearly 14 years sobriety herself I'm not judging

    My all time favorite is Seven and the Ragged Tiger that still had all original members and the song The Reflex can you say Awewweee I wanted to marry John Taylor (still do 🎉) then I would say Rio again all original line up. I back discovered them after seeing The Reflex went backwards to gain more knowledge and more music. I remember when they split for Arcadia and Power Station. Was bummed there. Later in life I love Pressure Off and All you need is now. Always went the extra mile to ensure excellent music videos ❤
