I'm such a nerd!!!!!
I'm having so much fun re-living Duran Duran's glory days
Here's the thing.
I grew up very sheltered and I didn't even know that pop and rock music existed for the longest time until a friend in middle school introduced me to Duran Duran.
You could say they were my first
I haven't listened to them in...well...a couple of decades. LOL
Because of a Duran Duran thread on a message board I'm on, I went onto YouTube and found a whole bunch of their old hits.
I am having so much fun listening to this stuff!
I swear I'm going to unpack my turntable and albums so I can play them...hehehehee.
For you younguns, albums are the big black discs that you play on something called a record player.
This is fun!
I feel like such a nerd and I don't care!!!!
Hahahaa!

Oh my god, please say it isn't so...
Y'know there are laws about cruel and unusual punnishment... and I think subjecting someone to Duran Duran is in direct violation.
Didn't they used this to break a standoff with some prisoners who rioted and took over a Prison in the mid 90's?
It IS SOOOOO!!!!
Bwahahhhahaaaa!
(btw, you double posted so I deleted one of them)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
(Sorry about the double post. It hung the first time and I clicked try again.)
Back off, Dave-O, Duran Duran is cool!! The Reflex is one of my favourite songs!!! Rock on, Mando! Rock on!!! Now, if you start listening to Hey Mickey, we may have a problem. And Dave, I think the song they used on the prisoners was something by the Bee Gees!!! LOL LOL!!!!
Hahahaaa!
The BeeGees would definitely be more torture-worthy :-P
From http://www.geocities.com/party_time_80s/duran-duran.html
The United States Army discover the use of music was very successful in psychological warfare against their enemy. In 1989, the Bush Administration found it necessary to invade Panama to rid the country of General Manuel Noriega. To increase Noriega's tension and unease, the Army began to play a selection of loud music near his base, including Duran Duran's "Hungry like the Wolf."
