collaboration

The combined musical genius of the Bee Gees and Michael Jackson cannot be disputed. Hell, it can barely be comprehended! Between the two acts is a dazzling amount of sales and a breathtaking back catalogue.

However, what also can’t be disputed is that both camps contain some of the weirdest faces in pop. Michael, of course, looks like wax ankle and in Barry Gibb, we have a man who looks like a griffin with dentures.

And the two actually teamed up. Of course, it wasn’t that long ago which means neither act was at the peak of their powers, but still, the thought of it is rather exciting! And better yet, there’s a video clip of them in action together.

We’ve had our run-ins with Muse fans on countless occasions in the past. We were all set to apologise to them this morning… then we found out that Muse are just desperately unlucky with the fans they attract. Every single one of them are absolutely mental.

And the tenuous proof? Well, one of Muse’s biggest fans is Glenn Beck. That means, if you like Muse, you’re a right-wing nutjob.

So Muse fans, feel free to confess that you agree with Beck by saying that you’re “thinking about killing Michael Moore” or that you believe Barack Obama is “a racist” and has a “deep-seated hatred for white people”.

Award ceremonies always guarantee a couple of moments that are repeated at every single show. Hilariously, there’s always the point when losing nominees have to graciously smile and clap, despite wanting to publically declare that the winner is nothing but muck on their shoe. Then when excessive alcohol bingeing kicks in, someone will make a slurred git of themselves.

Music ceremonies also signal the weird collaborations of two artists who normally wouldn’t dream of working together. Think of it in the same way as when making a sandwich. The humble BLT is a safe and classic option. Slipping in something different to improve it probably wouldn’t work, such as barbed wire or a bar of chocolate.

What we’re saying is that musical collaborations can usually be hailed as a spark of genius, or an utter mess. Rumours are circulating that Muse and Lady Gaga plan to combine forces. Uh-oh.

Usher can dance. Usher can sing. Usher can take a thing as ugly as sex and make it sound even more creepy on record. That’s some achievement. And he can dance. Oh, we’ve mentioned that already.

Of course, Usher is a famous enough person, but he’s never quite made it to superstar level. He’s destined to be a top flight team, always hovering around the business end without troubling the top.

However, he’s absolutely intent on troubling the top now as he’s spoken up about wanting to work with people who are more successful than he is… and he’s got his eye on Britney Spears and Lady GaGa. Read More >>>

The planned Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson Bond-theme has been cancelled because, according to Ronson, when it comes to her current mental state, Amy can’t find a quantum of solace anywhere.

However, a spokesman for Winehouse has said that this isn’t the case and that the real reason is to do with a clash of interests regarding the development of the song, of which Amy had “other ideas”.

Is Amy telling the truth, or is it Mark? Who knows? As far as that argument goes, it’s probably best to live and let die.

It’s a terrible shame for all things Bond as, when it comes to musical collaborations, nobody does it better than Winehouse and Ronson.
