VS, you're not alone. I've been living under a rock for years when it comes to pop music, and actually I quite like it here. Dunno what I think about DD's latest collaboration plans. I think the DD brand is strong enough to survive without the need to hook up with the latest big thing. Why do they need a crutch like that to lean on? On the other hand, if they hadn't collaborated on RCM, we never would've gotten a fab track like Skin Divers... Guess the proof will be in the pudding.

If he won a Brit award I probably heard his name on the radio the day I learned which song she sang. Latest news is that she is no longer recording the Bond theme. http://www.theblackballoonmovie.com/

Well, I have the impression that Justin recorded that song and that was it, he didn't seem to ever mention Duran again (while they mentioned working with him again and again) and I thought that was pretty unfortunate. I mean, considering DD are the older ones and the more experienced ones, the ones with a longer history, it should have been Justin appearing more thrilled about the collaboration than the other way around. So, in my very subjective opinion, the whole thing looked more like an attempt to use Justin's name to sell (which didn't work). With this other guy, he seems a bit more 'fan-like', he is even playing a show with them and reworking their songs so the interest seems more genuine. Again, this is my very subjective opinion also based on the fact that I admittedly could never stand Justin Timberlake.

Others have mentioned this too. I can't speak about Mark Ronson, tho. I don't really know anything about him. ~Andy's plectrum~ Getting music laid in 2008: www.myspace.com/andytaylorstudiosibiza.... www.myspace.com/evolvedigitalmusic "11"...out now! --- "it's just the WAY OF THE WORLD...that's what they tell me"
