Giving the term delusional whole new vistas of meaning, Simon Le Bon -who looks like a heartthrob after reconstructive surgery nowadays, claims the new mark Ronson produced Duran Duran album, All You Need Is Now, finds the boys re-discovering their edge. "I love this new album because we're edgy again. We're in a very enjoyable place. We're experimenting more.
"Our first two albums were considered cutting edge, futuristic and very modern. Mark brought that element of danger and risk back to our music this time around, rather than it sounding like it was designed for the charts beforehand."
I've heard one song off the album and if Le bon thinks this comes within a billion miles of edgy, Duran Duran should be opening the Charlie Sheen tour.
