MUSIC FROM SPACE: Duran Duran - ELECTRIC BARBARELLA
Thursday, May 7, 2009
Distraught that you'll never get to see Robert Rodriguez's wall-to-wall-T&A remake of Barbarella? Well, perhaps you'll find some consolation in Duran Duran's video for their 1997 single, Electric Barbarella. It's just as sleazy, sexy, silly and awesome as anything Rodriguez could possibly dream up. Apparently the robot fetishists go absolutely insane for this thing, as you can imagine. (Click the image at left to buy Duran Duran's Greatest CD, featuring this song.)
Interesting fact: Duran Duran got their name from mis-hearing the name of Durand Durand, the villain in the original Barbarella. Not-so-interesting fact: All this "Embed disabled by request" stuff on Youtube is driving me freaking nuts. So, it's another Daily Motion clip for you today.
