First of all, no trip to iTunes for me — Duran Duran’s greatest hits are already in major rotation, especially the majestic “Reflex.” John Taylor’s apology for using beauty as a weapon rings about as true as when they claimed “we’re not just a video band” about 15 years ago.

Meanwhile, Taylor says Bruce Springsteen is “a good, amazing looking, skinny charismatic guy.” Somewhere the Boss is blushing, sort of.
