Eminem!?! Are you thinking of the blonde-haired rapper? I truly cannot wrap my mind around that possibility....nor do I care to.

All good things, Georges, however, I hope we're not talking about the same one. :shock:

Hey my dear, I see Leonard as a great poet and not as an ugly High School boy who want to sing his dirty mind out. A duet with anyone, yeah, except with these kind of Youth Soul Murderer.

Hi September Cohen ~ I'm not sure if the "dear" was directed at me, or at smile. Or if your comment was related to Nick Cave or the list that followed, in particular Eminem. If the latter, I'm in full agreement. The emoticons were to indicate shock and confusion, as well as with the way "uh" preceded "yeah" to underscore the emoticons even further.

Oh Lizzytysh does it matter you are going to respond anyway :D

I really can't see LC in a duet with anyone other than a back up singer, I like him solo. A lot of his female back up singers have complimented him beautifully, though.

Hi Linda, :)
It matters in that I'm wondering if he has just stated his position on Eminem ~ and definitely didn't want to be interp'd as truly advocating Eminem!

I think he does well with his own choices for duets, anyway.

By the way, I even wrote Linmag Linda privately [immediately after my mistaken-identity posting] thinking it was you :lol: ! I'll follow up later, after I get the info I told "you" I was going to send. :roll:

Did you hear him with Elton John in Born to Lose?
Or with Bob Dylan in Don't go home ....

Quite good.

I haven't! Might be good! Although for me a female voice sounds more fitting with LC.

It is impossible to make out Bob Dylan (and Allen Ginsburg) in Don't Go Home With Your Hard-On. Why have Dylan singing background vocals if you can't even make it out ?

p.s. And why is this thread on this section ??

Hi Kush,
I would start a thread elsewhere for this, but my comments are so brief on it....i.e. I just heard "Don't Go Home..." for the first time 2 days ago. I can barely hear anyone, and presume that voice behind the music must be Leonard, but is the only one I can distinguish. Still searching for the merits in the song. "A good dance beat," maybe? In a rockin', beer- swillin' bar that is. :lol:

Dear Kush,
I agree with your P.S.
Dear Elizabeth, you should start a thread elsewhere for this.
