Rio (night version) is the GOAT synth pop tune

The version of The Chauffeur on the B-side of the Rio single is superior to the album version.
Also, Save a Prayer is the greatest pop song of the 1980s.

One of the best pop albums of the 80s

I think the night version of Rio is pretty bad. Why do you like it? Just curious.

based

absolute based opinion OP.But why is every Duran Duran Album after Pop trash such Horseshit?

why is Duran Duran such an inferior version of Japan?

It's an amazing album, one of my favorites actually. But people should check their other stuff too.
I liked their latest two. I think they are working on a new one right now.

paper gods wasnt that bad i admit,but all you Need is know was very very bad in my opinion.Whtas your favorite duran Album?

the girl in the album art looks like she was based off of Fairuza Balk

japan went to utter shit after quiet life.

I'll be basic and say that Rio is my favorite since every song is perfect. But Seven also has a really warm place in my heart, the last song is amazing. Also feel much more melodic.
What is yours?

so shit that massively talented people like Ryuichi Sakamoto still loved them, and inferior bands such as Duran Duran aped them as hard as they could

i wonder...

yeah, japan's last two albums fucking suck.
and visage did it first anyways

Honestly?Liberty is my favorite,closely followed by Notorious and The Wedding Album
Rio is 4 Place,i would say

>liberty
some good songs, but really?

i don't understand how you could put liberty or notorious above the wedding album, their debut, or seven and the ragged tiger.

yeah,i think its a great Album,i guess its just a matter of taste

i understand that you think that liberty is inferior to the other Albums,but in my opinion Notorius can easily compete with the wedding Album ,their debut,or seven and the ragged tiger,and even rio

Just because people are talented doesn’t mean they have good opinions.

Amazing bass playing

the taylor brothers were goat tier musicians.

Great thread.
One of my summer albums. Playing this in the car during a sunny afternoon is a fantastic feel. 'Rio' and 'The Chauffeur' are probably my favorite tracks, but I enjoy every one. I'm disappointed that they never made another as good as this, but then, it would've been hard to equal.
