Careless memories, indeed

Another scary birthday today, as we discover that the lovely Simon Le Bon is sixty years old! Lordy.

Never the prettiest one in Duran Duran (that was always John Taylor), nor the coolest (that was Nick Rhodes), nevertheless, it was Mr Le Bon's distinctive voice that carried the band through its ups and downs through the decades; and they are indeed survivors, celebrating forty years in the business this year!

Without further ado, let's wallow in just a soupçon of their fabulous back catalogue of hits...

Duran Duran - Planet Earth

Duran Duran - Careless Memories

Duran Duran - Hungry Like the Wolf

Duran Duran - Wild Boys

Faboo!

Many happy returns, Simon John Charles Le Bon (born 27th October 1958).
