"Too Much Information" is a song by English rock band Duran Duran, released in August 1993 by Parlophone and Capitol as the third single from their seventh studio album, Duran Duran (1993). In the United Kingdom, it became the band's third top-40 single from the album, while in North America, it peaked at numbers 45 and 41 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100, and number 26 in Canada. The accompanying music video for "Too Much Information" was filmed by British director Julien Temple in Santa Monica on 27 August and featured the elaborate stage setup designed for the band's 1993 Dilate Your Mind tour.

Release

In the United Kingdom, the 12-inch, cassette, and CD singles were released on 23 August 1993.[1] 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.

Critical reception

Alan Jones from Music Week gave the song three out of five in his review, describing it as "somewhat less atmospheric than "Come Undone" and more world-weary than "Ordinary World". It won't be as big as either but should still perform well enough to give them another Top 30 hit."[2]
