A lot of their music hasn't aged particularly well
and definitely sounds very dated.
But there is no denying they were big-time at their peak, and their music videos (if not their actual music) was extremely influential. As I heard it said once about Duran Duran in the 80's...every dude wanted to be them, and every gal wanted to be in their music videos. That about sums it up.
My default way to look at whether someone is HoF worthy is to ask the question of whether you can tell the story of their medium without mentioning them. I don't think the story of pop/rock music can be told without mentioning Duran Duran.
