Pros: The production on a lot of these tracks is pretty good. Crystal Ship is awesome.
Cons: The tracklist is a big, fat bag of bull and everyone knows it.
Summary: Never staying all that consistent (just musically cohesive record to record), Duran Duran couldn't keep themselves above the water, and despite an immensely popular early-90s rock/pop record, they followed it up with the drowning ship of covers known as ...

Pros: Great songs, great reinterpretations, fun music
Cons: Could have been longer
Summary: Duran Duran did something very different in 1995. They, for the first time, released an entire album of covers (save one). This 12-track album ranged from the beautiful Lou Reed "Perfect Day" to "Crystal Ship" originally popularized by the late Jim...

Pros: Classics Duran style
Cons: Some song choices elude me
Summary: Duran Duran got relentlessly blasted for this cover album of influential songs. What most people don't realize is that this album was done for the fans as a way of saying thanks for being loyal, hence the album title: Thank You. Duran fans are rare...

Pros: Great covers of great songs!
Cons: It's John Taylor's last album!!!
Summary: Okay, usually I like the original versions of songs better than the remakes, but this time it's Duran Duran, and I have to biased! I remember someone telling me that the critics back in '95 gave the album a horrible review; they must have head their...

Pros: The album is better than what you're expecting. Some covers are really terrific.
Cons: Duran Duran needed to follow their comeback with more original material, and leave the covers for B-sides - or do the cover album later.
Summary: I have to admit, I kind of regret listening to the critics back in 1995. Truth is, Thank You is quite a bit better than Duran Duran gets credit for, and now I wish I had purchased it when it came out. That doesn't necessarily make the album a good...

Pros: recorded well
Cons: not Duran Durans original material
Summary: Obviously Duran Duran's release "Thank you" was meant to basically show more of what inspired their style over the years rather then actually make make money and win another popularity contest. Personally I think that this album is great...

Pros: "Crystal Ship," "Perfect Day" was near perfect
Cons: "911 Is A Joke" is a joke here; "Drive By"
Summary: On the heels of their extremely successful self-titled album, a.k.a "The Wedding Album," Duran Duran took two years to release an album of almost entirely unoriginal music titled "Thank You." For those of you who have read other...
