Too Much Information
"Too Much Information" is a song by English new wave band Duran Duran, released in August 1993 as the third single from their seventh studio album, Duran Duran (1993). The song's lyrics deal mainly with the commercialisation of the music industry. In the United Kingdom, it became the band's third top-40 single from the album, while in North America, it peaked at number 45 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 26 in Canada. Release In the United Kingdom, the 12-inch, cassette, and CD singles were released on 23 August 1993. Those who bought the cassette received a free No Ordinary EP cassette with live tracks ("Hungry Like the Wolf", "Notorious", "Come Undone"), recorded during a performance at Tower Records a few months before. These recordings also appeared as bonus tracks on various global CD releases of the single.
