Fun Stuff > BAND
Guest Vocals
Johnny C:
Besides my pithy remarks, the following applies.
* Kanye West knows how to maximize a guest appearance.
* Jurassic 5's song with Dave Matthews Band, "Work It Out," is the best song on the latest J5 album, Feedback.
* The songs on Mark Lanegan Band's Bubblegum featuring P.J. Harvey are great.
* Whoever sings "Modern Nature" with Sondre Lerche has a great voice for it.
* Ditto with The Postal Service's "Nothing Better."
* The best song on Alexisonfire's Crisis, "You Burn First," is sung by some dude outside the band.
I had another one of these but fuck if I can remember.

Emmylou Harris has the ability to make mediocrity (Ryan Adams) sound good,
and heartbreaking (Gram Parsons, Bright Eyes etc) sound like the most vital, brilliant, wrenchingly beautiful song in the world.
She owns.
muffy:
I feel warmed in my cockles that you said that, Tommy, thank you..
E. Spaceman:
Hypothesis: This can be incredible
Experiment: David Bowie + Queen on Under Pressure
Experiment: Aerosmith + run DMC, this has extra points by making aerosmith not be a gargantuan pile of shit
Conclusion: Solid gold
Hypothesis: This can be terrible
Sonic Youth + Chuck D from Public Enemy on Kool Thing. Okay, this one is special, it's Sonic Youth and Chuck D, what went wrong guys?
Conclusiion: Shit
alexalexalex:
I agree with all you guys, plus I would add PJ Harvey & Thom Yorke, and Joanna Newsom & Bill Callaghan (&Van Dyke Parks...)
