Of course Duran Duran was going to make into this list. How could it not?
However, it’s not the expected candidates, like “Rio” or “Hungry.” It’s this one, “Lonely in Your Nightmare.” This one never really made it to MTV, and this is why I think it’s the best one. It has all of the mystique of the whole “Sri Lanka” thing in their first crop of videos. And it also has a sort of end to that story - the “what happened when we got back to the big city” portion - with a reminiscence that comes after having a really great summer, or a great decade, in this case.
Plus this is just a great song. It’s worth downloading the whole album if you haven’t. It’s as classic as they come. A little trivia is that this is the very first compact disc I ever bought (along with Regatta de Blanc and Ghost in the Machine by another great band…).
