I think they are the most unknown legendary band from the 80s. These guys are awesome. When I say "unknown' I mean they aren't known by the youth as much as others from the 80s. I don't hear any of their music in movies or commercials. It seems like if they could re-release one of their old songs it would be well received by many.
@@michaelking4578 hmm. I’ve never thought about that. But where I live, I’m Vancouver, British Columbia… everyone of my generation knows them. I’m also 52. So from the time they came out they were part of my life. As for the youngest generation, I can’t speak. My kids know of them due to me. Such a good band.
Me too. I was 52 on the 28th and still like a giddy kid over JT! Lmao!! I’ll never grow up now and to be fair why would I want too!! 😂. I still have them on my wall. They surround my DD calendar. Once a Duranie always a Duranie!
Every time I listen to these guys do an interview, I'm so impressed by their intelligence and perspectives. They are a rarity and their music has stood the test of time, like Bowie's and the Beatles'.
Duran Duran has been my most favorite band since the 80’s, I’ve only seen them in concert twice but hope to get to see them many more!! Thank you Duran Duran for such a legacy❤️
To be fair, we have to honour Warren as well. Without him, there would not be the Wedding Album and Ordinary World. He deserves recognition just as much as Andy. Both are great!
I’ve loved this band since I first heard and saw them in 1982..they’re still just as captivating, articulate, amusing. Talented and beautiful inside and out as they were then!!! Just saw them play in NYC last week and you’d never know they were guys in their 60s!! They sound absolutely fantastic and still put on a spectacular show!! Can’t wait til their Rock n Roll Hall of Fame induction in November!! Just gutted it’s in LA!! Well this was a great interview! Thanks for sharing!!!🌟
Me and My wife love this band we wish them the best they bring the young man and the young women out of us brings us back to a place in the 80s witch makes us feels great Thank you Duran Duran our prayers are also with Andy Taylor keep up the great work we seen them in 2023 in Miramar Florida the Energy was awesome everyone at the concert was so friendly everyone said hello when they sat next to each other everyone had big smiles 😊
I’m 52 as well have loved these guys since planet earth,Roger is right where have all the bands gone, after this generation of bands go what’s left, pretty sad really, great interview love you guys hope your coming to Australia on this tour would love to see you guys again ❤
I agree!! Where did all the great bands go???? Where are the Duran Durans, U2's, Depeche Modes, etc??? Not having great bands is why society is so dysfunctional! Love Duran Duran!!
I love this band, Simon, John, Nick, Roger/Andy are amazing. They write the best music. Simon's voice is gorgeous. I am so happy that finally there in the walk of fame, took too long in my opium.
This is the first time that I can recollect hearing and watching an actual interview of this band..Back in the 80's on MTV they may have had interviews I'm sure but this one is very interesting and very intriguing..Love this band and have since 1982 when Rio hit the airwaves the same year I graduated highschool..😁👍🎸🎤
As Roger lastly said, "not many bands around like ourselves with a 40 year history", but hopefully those of us that were teenagers (I'm 58 this year) continue to see their creative energy continue to build and mature!!! The band DD got me with their sound from their album Rio and each album they've created matured with different stages in my life as I matured. Wonderful to see them find inspiration from their low times to continue as a band and a special mention to Warren, as an American guitarist who filled one of their voids but made a huge musically creative contribution for years after. Sorry to see him be asked from the band's record company to ask him to leave at the making of Astronaut. I wish him well on whatever projects he's working on!!!
I saw these guys in Seattle (May 2023). For two hours, I was that 13 year old girl who saw them for the first time back in 84. Every time I see these guys, my inner teenager comes and squeals in delight.
Totally awesome amazing band luv um after 40 years plus and omg omg omg they are still era and there ups and downs look at um now bloody brilliant awesome Duran Duran best band on planet earth 🌍🌎 respect luv to ya keep going and make ya Duranies happy!!!! Peace ☮️
Simon looks so happy haha. I live how they've still got their accents, I remember seeing the guys going through the bullring when I was a kid at my dad's shop.
If it takes Duran another 6 years till their next album, they will be almost 70....and if their good health continues, its going to be yet another album worth owning.... i always keep my fingers crossed that the great songs will just keep coming, but i think that, just 1 more album is the most realistic scenario.
I had chatgpt create a mock dialog between the members of duran duran about fruit juice and boba: Sure, here's another version of the dialog where each member of Duran Duran asks for help from the next before the next interrupts: Simon: "I remember when we used to drink a lot of orange juice during our early tours. It was a quick source of-" Nick: "Energy to keep us going during long rehearsals and performances. But now I'm more interested in trying new fruit juice-" John: "Flavors with added textures like black tapioca pearls. Um, uh, help me out, Roger?" Roger: "Combination. I'm all about trying new things and pushing boundaries, so I'm excited to see where this trend of fruit juice with black tapioca pearls and tea-" Simon: "Goes. Maybe we could even create our own signature Duran Duran blend and share it with our-" Nick: "Fans. That would be amazing! I'm already thinking about some exotic fruit flavors like lychee or dragonfruit that we could-" John: "Incorporate. But what about the tapioca pearls? Can they really be added to any fruit juice or tea?" Roger: "Well, I'm not sure. Maybe we should do some research and experiment with different combinations to see what works best." Simon: "Good idea, Roger. We can use our creative energy to come up with something really unique and-" Nick: "Delicious. Adding black tapioca pearls could also provide some extra-" John: "Fiber and antioxidants, which is great for maintaining a healthy diet. I'm excited to see what we come up with!"
I've also seen every version of this band: All five together SImon, Nick and John Simon, John Nick and Warren Simon, Nick and Warren All five Simon, John, Nick and Roger
These musicians got it, I've been following them since they started, stay cook😎 everybody looks good. Do u keep in touch with Andy........missing Andy🙏🙏🙏🙏
hahaha are you serious? he left in 1985 then came back for one album(Astronaut) in 2000 and quit again.He will rejoin the band along with warren to get inducted in the rock n roll hall of fame cermemony.

I love duran duran but please don`t put lgbtq agenda down our throats.The main reasons i like this band is cuz they always stayed away from the politics.This is someone asking them to say it.With that being said , i really did`nt mean no offense to any community but i think people should keep their sexualities in their bedrooms.
The guys have always been very plainspoken about their feelings and support for what is now labelled the LGBTQ agenda. Take a look at the 90s Behind The Music episode where Nick says that Duran Duran has always been for boys and girls and anyone in between. Somewhere along the way a simple issue got politicized and now some people want to silence people they don't agree with, claiming something is being shoved down their throat. I wonder what you would say about their recent Halloween show where Simon was a murderous bride for the encore, in blood-spattered gown and tiara. From your POV, makeupped and metrosexual Duran Duran have been political from the start. Maybe you missed it when it went down your throat.
You're an ignorant hateful bigot. Straight people don't keep their sexuality in their bedrooms, why should LGBT+ people have to hide who they are just because you can't handle it? You are wrong, and you need to go reflect on why that is, grow up, and become a better person.
@@BK-xk1ur The point here is Duran Duran have always been like this, before it was called an agenda and before "down our throats" became a cliche. The only way to think that they always stayed away from politics is to think that equality isn't political.
The older you get the wiser you become. It's Duran Duran exactly.
I'm a 52 year old and I still love these guys after all these years! Thanks DD!😊

@@michaelking4578 remember a view to a kill the number 1 bond song ever//.
Duran Duran is still pure class
You can tell they are very much a family. I think that's what keep them together.
I have always been a fan of DD. Being a 53 year old musician myself, I need to say these men a musical geniuses!!
My favorite band on planet Earth DD
Every time I listen to these guys do an interview, I'm so impressed by their intelligence and perspectives. They are a rarity and their music has stood the test of time, like Bowie's and the Beatles'.
Agree
Duran Duran has been my most favorite band since the 80’s, I’ve only seen them in concert twice but hope to get to see them many more!! Thank you Duran Duran for such a legacy❤️
There's one person missing here, who unfortunately has a greater battle with life. Best wishes for Andy Taylor.
To be fair, we have to honour Warren as well. Without him, there would not be the Wedding Album and Ordinary World. He deserves recognition just as much as Andy. Both are great!
@@josephmanzuni8593if that’s the case what about Sterling ?
Been a Duranie for 35 years love their music
A phenomenal band and I'm proud they come from the UK! Always interesting to hear their thoughts too ❤
Most attractive men from there too.
Roger Taylor drums are Incredible!!

The thing about this band is that each guy is his own guy and has a strong opinion
I’m 52 as well have loved these guys since planet earth,Roger is right where have all the bands gone, after this generation of bands go what’s left, pretty sad really, great interview love you guys hope your coming to Australia on this tour would love to see you guys again ❤
Refreshing hearing articulate musicians still excited about their work after 4 decades.
These guys are the best!
I agree!! Where did all the great bands go???? Where are the Duran Durans, U2's, Depeche Modes, etc??? Not having great bands is why society is so dysfunctional! Love Duran Duran!!
The Duran, was ...Fabulous....
DURAN Duran was humble...
I love this band, Simon, John, Nick, Roger/Andy are amazing. They write the best music. Simon's voice is gorgeous. I am so happy that finally there in the walk of fame, took too long in my opium.
Duran Duran are just AMAZING!!! they are still my favorite band. I'm 51 years old and I still crank up Duran Duran
Great Band pop Duran Duran.
These guys are 60 years old!
Simon Le Bon is wearing a _Sue the Catwoman_ t-shirt. She was a punk icon in '76.
They were great in concert this year!! 😍😍 🎶
I am 51 I lost track of this band in my 30;s and I didn't realize they were such serious musicians. they are GREAT!

I was 8 years old when I was convinced I was going to marry John Taylor😂 Saw them a few days ago for the first time. Heaven.❤
Totally awesome amazing band luv um after 40 years plus and omg omg omg they are still era and there ups and downs look at um now bloody brilliant awesome Duran Duran best band on planet earth 🌍🌎 respect luv to ya keep going and make ya Duranies happy!!!! Peace ☮️
Just saw the tour - they sound amazing. JT is a boss. Simon just kills live. All solid.
Simon looks so happy haha. I live how they've still got their accents, I remember seeing the guys going through the bullring when I was a kid at my dad's shop.
O Duran Duran é uma daquelas bandas que mesmo muito tempo na estrada não perdeu seu senso de direção e continua excelente e jovial.
So cool, just saw them last night!!!
Love this band!
Legend ❤

Amazed by DD being on Austin City Limits...times have pleasantly changed
l love DURAN DURAN
I just turned 53 and following you since the beginning and. Call you TGBOAT (The Greatest Band Of all Time)
The best thing about this group is that every album is good. Even Pop Trash has a couple of great songs: Hallucinating Elvis and Lava Lamp
Well said, guys!
wow great interview "bands era" so true we are living in a superficial era in all fields
Roger said it best "where are all the new bands?"
Bravi bravi 😘😘😘 ciao
Those first 2 albums are so hard to beat. I wish they would put out another effort like RIO….
Have you listened to Future Past?
Duran Duran rulez!

Simon's wearing his infamous Tiger Baby charm necklace.
yes, its made a comeback with this album.....even his hair is a bit 1984
I just saw DD in concert. Wonderful show. I have been curious about the necklace. Do you know what it means?
Loved ur segment on music. I'm so happy thyr
Amazing you’re together it’s meant to be - the wisdom you all have is unique-nick looking 👀absolutely fabulous 🐈⬛xxxxjoanne🐈⬛

10:55 Well said by Nick, 14:05 well said by John
GREAT BrittisH number one band ...(opinion)
I think Nick is SO cute.
Just wish Andy was there.
Nick rhodes Simon le bon nonno vi amoooo da sempre
They been together so long they look like i know the Taylors are brothers but Nick and Simon looking like their brothers also
They’re not biological brothers , just same surname
Duran Duran The GOATS of Pop-Rock bar NONE. 🤔 Also, "Save A Prayer" is top 10 in the history of Rock n Roll! 🙂Matter of opinion??? Yeah okay. 😏
I wonder if I could get chatGpt to construct a dialog of every member of duran duran talking about anything.. Have you guys taken a look at AI at all?
Tora tora ala mueve esquelo dulce
They need to make Dom Brown a full member.
It won’t happen . Dom nor the band wanted it in the end
JT 1962 ????
L to R - John, Nick, Simon, Roger (with parachute pants)
💞💯👏🫀
where's Andy?
hahaha are you serious? he left in 1985 then came back for one album(Astronaut) in 2000 and quit again.He will rejoin the band along with warren to get inducted in the rock n roll hall of fame cermemony.
We duran duran fans are done with Andy. He doesnt luv the band all along.
