I remember being off school sick and hearing Starman on the radio, I thought it was an OK song…and then when I saw him on TV, both Lift Off and TOTP…I was like “OMG”!!! and from that day on, like Nick and millions of others became a fan for life!!
Nick Rhodes is an amazing musician and I like to hear him talking about pop culture. I wish long life to all the members of Duran Duran, and of course, Andy taylor and Warren Cuccurullo.
I first saw Bowie at 6 years old when he was on Soul Train in 1975. I was too young to register more than I liked the songs and that he had pretty eyes. He was also on the Bing Crosby special in 1977 that I saw, but I didn't put together that they were both Bowie until I was a teenager. I became a fan of Duran Duran straightaway from Planet Earth in 1981. So nice to see the connection!
I saw a similar thing here in America. I want to say American Bandstand, and Bowie was doing Ashes To Ashes. I saw that and right after that, a bit later, I saw Planet Earth! So, I got a double-dose of the New Romantic thing, but it was Bowie that introduced me initially, even though it was only by a couple of hours.
Wow, Bowie on American Bandstand? I used to watch it every Saturday in the 80s, when I was a pre-teen. There were alot of cool bands on AB. Loved Dick Clark. He was a good host and interviewer.
Do you also have some Graham Coxon bits from this evening? Because he´s sitting right there besides Nick Rhodes. This is when Duran Duran - Coxon collaboration on Future Past actualy started
Always a pleasure to hear Nick telling his stories!
What a gem of an interview. Glad to see that Duran Duran are finally being appreciated for the talent they have always had.

I still don't know if Nick can play a piano proficiently or if he is just a very good programmer.

Love Nick’s stories but wish they hadn’t shot the entire segment from the side of his neck. I always prefer seeing his beautiful eyes!
Maybe you can jump in your time machine and move the person who had a better seat than me so I can film it from a better spot. Thanks. 😉
chrislox1 I totally agree with you!

Is this interview on Swap Shop? That would explain why the children in the audience keep laughing at things that aren't funny
Is Swap Shop still going? Lol
