Ordinary World.

Top 3 for sure

Trying to pick your favorite Duran Duran song is like trying to pick your favorite child...and you're Jose Menendez.

The one thing.

Old skool Durand²

You son of a….

Can't say I could name many off the top of head. But pre-teen Nordic definitely remembers this one.

Why in the fuck should either M&M or Dolly tits be in the rock and roll HOF?  

Pretty sad Pat Benatar wasn't inducted many years ago

All I need to know about Duran Duran is Kingston not only likes their music, but wants them in the R&R HoF. Given Kingston’s provably horrible taste in music, it’s easy to conclude that Duran Duran sucks.

Stellar show at Pine Knob back in 2017!

BOOM

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame has officially announced this year’s inductees: Eminem, Dolly Parton, Duran Duran, Lionel Richie, Pat Benatar, Eurythmics, and Carly Simon will join the class of 2022 in the Performers category.

That video is incredible. It came out in 1982, obviously inspiring both Flashdance and Top Gun. It's clearly the link between Raiders of the Lost Ark and Inglourious Basterds; there's no way Tarantino makes his WWII masterpiece without this video. It also made superstars of Bill Paxton and Edward Ernest "Judge" Reinhold, Jr. One could argue that big brother Chet in Weird Science was Paxton's defining role, but the work he did as unnamed Nazi in this Pat Benatar video absolutely lights up the screen and sets a standard unmatched by modern Hollywood.

This seems like awesome sarcasm, but knowing this board this could be a very real post.

Trying to pick your favorite Duran Duran song is like trying to pick what child goes first… and you’re Andrea Yates.

Fletch roller skating at the beach is what inspired David Koresh to start the Branch Davidians.

Duran Duran has 132 songs and all are better than any post by Greenway

I hope the guys in Judas Priest and Duran Duran start insulting each other in the media and then there's a big bloody rumble at the ceremony with the Eurythmics and Carly Simon backing Duran Duran while Eminem, Dolly, Lionel Richie and Pat Benatar take Judas Priest's side. Then the cowbell sound from Honky Tonk Women will blast through the sound system with the late Charlie Watts projected on the big screen behind the stage, and they'll realize that they're all apostles in the religion of music and join together for a rollicking jam session.

Little disappointed that only Floyd and Kingston got this… I think.
I guess it was one of those things that’s only funny in your own mind.

BTW is he alive or dead?  That was the golden age of boxing Hearns Leonard Hagler and Roberto.  Man that was must see tv.

Todays the day, bitches!!! My boys are going into the R&R HOF. BOOM

How in the hell did Green Day (with that nasal-voiced shit singer) get in the HOF before Duran Duran?
