Duran Duran

The band lose and change members with every new scene between the music played in the episode. They highlight their rivalary with Spandau Ballet, while correctly claiming they had no hits in the 1990s unlike themselves. Jamie however cannot recall "Ordinary World", despite all three members of the band singing it together, with Simon Le Bon (played by David Walliams), saying "Guitar solo" etc. for the instrumental parts of the song and "Repeat chorus". They even sing the fade-out, by repeating the last line over and over getting quieter each time they sing it. Simon Le Bon even says "Fade-out" before they sing the line, only for Jaimie to say he still doesn't know it. The version of "Ordinary World" they perform sounds like it is sung in an a capella style. (21 January 2001)
