[ listen ]

Happy Presidents' Day! Duran Duran was sorta like "The Golden Girls" of '80s new wave, especially when there were five guys in the band. There was the rebellious one in black leather; the swarthy and brooding quiet one; the glamourpuss; the gregarious show-off; and the pretty-boy pinup with the  jawline of gold. All my friends in high school had their favorite member of Duran Duran, and I did too! Who was yours?
