    Duran Duran fun, innovated pop group -- extremely popular lots of albums sold... DM supergroup on another level.

    I think a more intriguing either/or would be Depeche Mode and New Order.

    I used to think so. Still DM by a long shot for me. After Technique New Order was just ok. Are you adding Joy Division to the equation?

    I will say that after Wilder left DM they lost something ,and yet they still pump out very good music.

    It’s not a tough call and I like Duran Duran. DD has tons of good songs but for me, they are the hair metal equivalent of pop/new wave.

    DM dives deeper into sex, religion, pain. It’s just a helluva lot deeper than Duran Duran. There is more meaning in their music.

    Duran Duran is fun. Depeche Mode’s music touches on far more emotion.

    It really feels like Pet Shop Boys should have been included in this poll..........
