Just a handful of great Duran Duran tracks. I kind of favored the old stuff, or in the very least, their older sound, since that's my favorite era of Duran Duran.

1 "Electric Barbarella" - Duran Duran [Medazzaland] [1997]
A newer song with their older sound.
2 "Shadows Are On Your Side" - Duran Duran [Seven And The Ragged Tiger] [1983]
Not an A-Side, but I felt like I needed to showcase some of the lesser known, excellent tunes from Seven.
3 "My Own Way (Video Version)" - Duran Duran [(Video Collection Laserdisc)] [1982]
This was on a compilation Laserdisc of videos. I'm not sure what CD release this version can be found on.
4 "New Moon On Monday (extended)" - Duran Duran [Tiger! Tiger!] [1984]
A Japan only version. The Essential Night Versions contained an enhanced CD with this mix in low quality audio. Sorry about the slight track noise, pops, and clicks. I'm quite pleased with the audio quality, but my vinyl wasn't perfect. :)
5 "A View To A Kill" - Duran Duran [A View To A Kill (single)] [1985]
Bon... Simon LeBon.
6 "Careless Memories" - Duran Duran [Duran Duran] [1981]
Wasn't actually released as a single in the US, but a great tune, nonetheless.
7 "Union Of The Snake (The Monkey Mix)" - Duran Duran [Essential Night Versions] [1983]
1998 compilation release, the mix itself is from 1983
8 "Hungry Like The Wolf" - Duran Duran [Rio] [1982]
Another A-Side, but a great tune.
9 "The Reflex" - Duran Duran [Seven And The Ragged Tiger] [1983]
Overplayed, perhaps... but the arbitrary and pointless imagery made it worth it.
10 "The Chauffeur" - Duran Duran [Rio] [1982]
Many people would say this is one of their best songs. It felt like a good song to end with.
