[glow=red,2,300]WE'RE ALL MOODY BASTARDS:[/glow] An Interview with Duran Duran's John Taylor 25 March 2005/ by David Medsker John TaylorFor the first time in a long time, it's good to be Duran Duran. Despite the phenomenal success of 1993's Duran Duran (a.k.a. The Wedding Album) and its Top Ten singles "Ordinary World" and "Come Undone", Duran Duran spent most of the '90s on the ass end of an '80s joke. Then suddenly, everything '80s is cool again, and Duran Duran appears to be forgiven for whatever trespasses they allegedly committed in the first place. Funny what a difference a few years can make.
After an explosive US tour in late 2003, the Fab Five, reunited as a quintet for the first time since 1985, recorded a new album, Astronaut, have just begun another successful US tour and are enjoying the best press of their career. PopMatters' biggest Duran Duran fan had 20 minutes to chat by phone with boyhood idol and bassist John Taylor (doing back-to-back phone interviews in Las Vegas) about old favorites, bad videos, and the proper way to throw a bass guitar in disgust.
