IT'S DURAN DURAN DAY, BITCHES!!!

I actually had another post written but I'm going to shelve it for a few days because how could I NOT commemorate this? 

I'm really digging the new album so far. The new single "Anniversary" kicks ass. 

And the video? FABULOUS.

Some thoughts....

Nick still rules.

Love the bit with the young Duran Duran cover band.

It's nice to see Roger prominently featured (and smiling!).

John getting kidnapped by the Daniel Craig lookalike is hilarious.

Okay, so there's a lot of the Kardashian lookalike in it, but I don't mind too much because they're mostly just making fun of her giant fake ass. (Yeah not very feminist of me to say, but you can't inject your ass cheeks with 30 pounds of window caulk and expect to be taken seriously. The giant fake ass trend can't die soon enough for me; it doesn't look sexy, it just looks painful. The lower back strain!)

I don't know what the Billie Eilish lookalike is meant to be doing, but I LOVE that they have the Ariana Grande clone licking a tray of pastries. I feel like that's a shoutout to Gen Xers like me, because seriously the only thing I know about Ariana Grande is that she was once caught on camera licking a donut. (No, it's not a euphemism for something dirty--she licked a donut in a bakery. God, the pop star scandals of today are so boring.)

And the Queen is there! YES! (I'm a big fan of The Crown. Betty RULES!)

40 YEARS OF DURAN DURAN, BITCHES!
