Boned in the late 80s, when new wave had long died out, yet Duran Duran was hanging on to their former MTV glory with subpar songs like "I Don't Want Your Love" and "All She Wants." "Rio" and "Seven and the Ragged Tiger" were by far and away their best albums. -- Submitted By: (kingbk) on July 23, 2012, 3:04 pm - (2 votes)

After two albums of top notch material, Duran Duran started showing signs of boning on their 3rd album. It wasn't until the "Wild Boys" single from the otherwise live "Arena" LP that they truly told the world "we no longer give a shit", and that's exactly the kind of song it is. Ridiculously simplistic pop garbage that if it didn't have the Duran Duran label on it woudn't have sold two copies. John Taylor plays his two note bass line as if he'd rather be anyplace else, and Simon LeBon sounds like he could use a two year vacation from singing. Things only got worse from there. Two founding members leave the band. The side projects (Power Station; and that other forgettable one that did "Election Day"). "All She Wants Is". Man they tanked fast. I know they had some "boned back" moments later on, but any remaining goodwill from me had been largely spent by then. I'd outgrown them. -- Submitted By: (ParkerTillman) on July 23, 2012, 10:48 am - (0 votes)

I enjoy Duran Duran so much! Never boned! Their songs were cool! And how can the James Bond film DD did the theme song for be bad, anyway? (See my comment in "James Bond" for a better reason why.) -- Submitted By: (SVN) on May 12, 2009, 7:40 pm - (-1 votes)
