Duran Duran, the unedited video for "Girls on Film"

although, thanks to Sirius First Wave, I've come to appreciate The Cure, a band I didn't care for in high school or college

Billy, who don't you do polls for these threads?

Didnt figure you as a Cure fan

Cure by a mile - much longer career, much bigger band, much bigger impact on music.

Agree. Plus, the Cure and Duran Duran are two totally different types of bands

I'm a complicated man. No one understands me but my woman.

Cure. I dig everyone in the band having more hair, but the more hair the better. I wouldn't call the Cure a hair band, though. Just a band with hair.

Also, their music is good.

The Cure.


But its not like I haven't enjoyed at times Duran Duran.

"Hungry Like the Wolf" gets a laugh from me every time thanks to Andy Dick on Old School.

 

[joevol320]

both are great, can't really compare them. I think Cure has more great songs.

 

[Georgia Peach]

I really don't think of either as being comparable. Duran Duran is sexy and fun. The Cure understood the feeling side of things. Maybe if you compared Flock of Seagulls to Duran Duran I would have a side.

 

[volsforever27]

Yeah not really the same kind of music. I used to hate the Cure, but some of their stuff I can tolerate now. Pictures Of You is pretty good.

I know some of you go around singing Wild Boys by Duran Duran.

The Reflex, flex flex flex

The Cure. Good college sexytime in south carrick with the cure lowly playing in the background.

Though after a couple of years, the ladies cranking up Nine Inch Nails in the background after a night at the Boiler Room really helped me grow up

That too.

The Cure. I'm surprised by the number of Duran Duran votes in this thread. The only cool Duran was Roberto.

 

[Escape Goat]

Duran Duran hands down.
