In 1993, the band released a second self-titled album: this Duran Duran album is known as The Wedding Album (for Nick Egan ‘s cover art featuring the wedding photos of the band members’ parents) to distinguish it from the 1981 release, and was produced and recorded with John Jones . The release of this first “comeback” album was delayed, with then manager at Left Bank, Tommy Manzi, later telling HitQuarters that this was due to industry resistance to the revival of the band, who he said would rather focus on “the next hip band”. Listener demand for leaked single ” Ordinary World ” forced it onto radio playlists months earlier than planned; it reached number three on the US chart and number six in the UK and won a prestigious Ivor Novello Award for song writing.
