Greatest is a Duran Duran fan's biggest wish come true (next to a live concert, of course)--all their groundbreaking videos together in one place.

And yes, Duran Duran is not as popular as they were but we have to give them the props they deserve.

 Duran Duran : Greatest (Deluxe Edition) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The best Duran Duran compilation imaginable is a three-disc set containing the group's first two albums and a brief third disc summarizing the remainder of their career.
However, EMI is so satisfied with Greatest -- a set that could use more room for the early years -- that the label has rolled it out a few times in various forms.
Duran Duran, as much as any other group, just can't be served well by a single-disc best-of, so the compilers can't really be faulted, and the worthiness of only a couple inclusions can truly be debated.

One of the other interesting things about Duran Duran was their willingness to change, not just as they recorded new albums, but even with the music they had out.
I refer of course to Duran Duran, who during their peak years comprised of Simon LeBon (vocals), Andy Taylor (guitar), John Taylor (bass), Roger Taylor (drums), and Nick Rhodes (piano), he of the heavy makeup.
But the reason why Duran Duran stood over contemporaries like the Human League or Spandau Ballet was their MTV coverage and stylish videos and that certain edge they had in their mostly danceable pop tunes.

 Greatest by Duran Duran CD
The members of Duran Duran had their mortgages paid off long before GREATEST was conceived, so their sincerity in releasing a best of album is not to be doubted.
GREATEST follows the teen heartthrobs from their inspiring early days (the quintessential new wave anthem "Planet Earth," the stylish, more-than-suggestive "Girls On Film") straight through to their later work ("Electric Barbarella," a whirring, modern dance cut).
In between, the classic "Hungry Like The Wolf" and the mournful "Save A Prayer" give evidence of the band's mastery of the pop form, while the Bond theme "View To A Kill" and "Notorious" trace their development during the decade with which they are inextricably linked.

Respected Collections for Duran Duran should be acknowledged and we find this more rewarding than discussing Simon's waistband measurements and how he got the nickname "Lardo" many moons ago.
Duran Duran's "A View To A Kill" came in at number 10(shocking only because a few years prior, American fans voted it Number 1 on during a similar ABC television special).
The Duran Duran number 10 entry part of the show gave a nice picture of a popular band nearly coming to blows during their recording sessions and Nick proclaiming how super Simon was with the ultra cool "bon...Simon Le Bon" video line all with a "berraye" on his head.
