		<title>Girls On Film</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Duran Duran have unleashed the multi-tracks (albeit in a considerably condensed format, with vocals smooshed together with synths and so forth) for their 1981 chart hit &#8220;Girls On Film&#8221; onto the general public, I&#8217;m assuming intentionally&#8230; and in any case the results have been spectacular, with many fan mixes cropping up over the past few [...]]]></description>

		<title>Careless Memories</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And now on to the second single, Careless Memories b/w Khanada/Fame&#8230; The pulsing, screaming A-side is a straight take on an ended love affair. At his best/worst, Simon Le Bon is excruciatingly obscure, but this lyric is surprisingly literal: &#8220;Where are you now? / &#8216;Cos I don&#8217;t want to meet you / I think I&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<title>Planet Earth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It would be nice to go back, physically and/or philosophically (let alone theologically), to The Beginning. Where did it all start? Light, I suppose, has been around for a while. In particles, in waves, it, like Love, bathes us to this day. &#8220;The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>T. Rex</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The next step on the journey toward Duran Duran leads us into the early &#8217;70s and the formation of glam rock. Right away, music becomes more than just music; it&#8217;s an image-consciousness that seeped into the young minds of John Taylor, Nick Rhodes, and countless other British kids who dreamed of becoming pop stars. This [...]]]></description>

		<title>All Roads Lead to the Velvet Underground</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My recent posts on Duran Duran have prompted me to mine the past a bit, trying to trace a path backwards to a suitable origin. I ended up at the Velvet Underground, which is typical, for nearly every pop-art musical road ultimately leads either to or from the Velvet Underground. They are the crossroads. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Union of the Snake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The song is supposedly about the intersection between the conscious and the subconscious, with the latter gaining a surprise advantage with a late surge. When it was written, Duran Duran had already achieved worldwide fame beyond any reasonable human necessity. I was late to the party (see last post), and it wasn&#8217;t until the band [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Moon On Monday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Those of you who know me knew this was coming eventually. Hopefully you&#8217;ve prepared yourselves for it. I don&#8217;t jump into this sort of thing halfway, either. This is a full blown tribute to my first, and most enduring, favorite band: Duran Duran. They&#8217;re supposed to be a &#8220;guilty pleasure&#8221; or whatever, but they&#8217;re the [...]]]></description>
