I don't eat junk food, so I'll put it this way, Duran Duran is like eating a nice juicy apple, but JAPAN is like eating a durian (a durian is called the king of all fruit, it's unique, flavorful, unlike any other fruit!)

I'll say Japan for the memory of make-out sessions to "Nightporter." One of the reasons my high school boyfriend (the Nick Rhodes look-alike) was attracted to me is that he said my profile resembled David Sylvian's . . . . (I am a girl)

I'll put it this way.

Duran Duran = Johnny Walker Red, its nice with a splash of soda and a lemon twist but not a very serious drink.


Japan = Balvenie 21 year old single malt a real scotch that you enjoy with a Paragas Habana double corona.

Hexicon,

Bad durians smell like that, they've also been compared to smelly armpits and skunk. BUT a good durian smells like vanilla custard and tastes out of this world -- like a cross between a vanilla custard, hazelnut and banana.

You and your hi
