Duran Duran Finale - Sin of the City

"Sin of the City" is the last track on Duran Duran's The Wedding Album - one of the band's best and highly ranked albums I would say.

In the whole of The Wedding Album, two songs have lasted in strong popularity since the album's release in 1993 - "Ordinary World" and "Come Undone."

"Ordinary World" is a musical tribute to a friend Simon Le Bon lost to drugs.

Change gears for a moment.

"What Happens Tomorrow" was written in response to the aftermath of September 11, 2001.  The sin that global society has come to and for what?

...A similar point in "Sin of the City."

Change gears one last time.

The Wedding Album cover features actual photos of each band member's parents on their wedding days.

Ironic
