Duran Duran (The Wedding Album)

Released

Duran Duran in their trio days found themselves slipping away from all but a core fanbase in the late 80s and early 1990s, but came roaring back with a surprise hit in the form of their second self-titled album, embracing a slightly more comfortable and contemplative sound that landed well as they and their fans aged, plus two utter smash singles. The contemplative-then-soaring drive of “Ordinary World” became a massive hit at home and around the world, their first top five single in the US in years, with the moody dance kick of “Come Undone” following not far behind.
