this song has been in my head all week.
I spun the 12″ of this last Friday, and it was nice to hear it loud, and with a couple people dancing along. Yep, I read Star Hits magazine back in 1984, and was a full on pop music kid, complete with red light bulb in my bedroom. Duran Duran, I wanted to be the black guy in the band. There was no black guy in Duran Duran, but that was kinda the point. And though I loved the pop vibe back then, none of my friends knew how much I liked Duran Duran, they might have pegged me as someone who thought they might become a major league baseball player, and well… I actually did think that, pretty much until I was about 20. Funny. So anyway, “two minutes later” ya’ll.
