No duet for Macca and Ozzy at Brits

Dang, so there will be no fabby duet between Paul McCartney & Ozzy Osborne. Paul opting out for a lil melody of his own tunes (darn). If this was not bad enough Kylie Minogue is giving Paul his Outstanding Contribution To Music award. Can we ask why?

You Remember Kylie's dreadful if not horrible duet with Macca on New Years singing
"Dance Tonight" wasn't? I believe and old friend such as Chrissie Hynde a GREAT artist & musicain is better suited to give Macca this honour. Who the heck thought and agreed to this idea anyways? how sad~

Dance Tonight-Paul McCartney & Kylie Minogue

see video above and hear what I'm talkin about. I'm sorry, but I think she just ruined this song. what do you think?
update :
so Paul was the one too hand pick Kylie? see interview below.

Sir Paul McCartney on Brits honour
Natalie Jamieson Radio 1 Entertainment reporter
As a BBC journalist, everything I do should be fair and unbiased.
I wholeheartedly subscribe to that - except I love The Beatles. And Johnny Depp. He's OK too.

The Beatles, rightly so I feel, earned their number one place in a 2004 Rolling Stone poll as The Greatest Artists of All Time.
Bearing that in mind, I was feeling a little intimidated about interviewing Sir Paul McCartney the week before his divorce hearing began.
The "H" word was not to be mentioned at all (while we ordinarily refuse any such interview conditions - there were legal implications regarding their 4-year-old daughter so it was deemed acceptable).
it's good to get any award, any time, any place, any where.
This was to discuss Macca getting the Outstanding Contribution honour at the Brit Awards 2008.
When I asked if the award means a lot to him, bearing in mind the Spice Girls beat him to it, he looks quizzical: "Have they? Wow."
Is he surprised by that? "No, I think it's deeply honourable."
'Euphemism'
Thankfully he's grinning: "No listen it's great, it's good to get any award, any time, any place, any where. Cinzano."
"It's not Lifetime Achievement, I try and avoid those because it feels like you're going to die the next second, so it's called Outstanding Contribution. It's a euphemism."
We meet at his personal office in central London - a suitably large room that has a huge desk/dining/meeting table, a couple of cream sofas, a kitchenette, some priceless art and an enormous picture of Rupert the Bear and friends.
He clearly harbours no bad feelings towards working with the cartoon bear on the Frog Chorus' We All Stand Together. It's reassuring.
So, can he pick out his highlights from the various stages of his career; Beatles, Wings and solo ventures.


"That's such a big question," he says. (I am aware of this but don't want to interrupt)
Collaborations
"I think The Beatles did so much good stuff and it's great because I don't have to be modest because it's done.
"And a lot of it wasn't my work, it was all collaborations. A Day in the Life was fantastic.
"I think Hey Jude was a cool record, there's so many, Come Together, Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, Here Comes the Sun, Lady Madonna."
"Wings I think did some really cool records. I think Band on the Run was really nice, I like My Love, Jet and some of the lesser known stuff from Wings is cool.
"And then from my solo stuff I've been very lucky and made one or two good records.
"I liked Chaos and Creation, I liked Pipes of Peace, I like Tug of War, I like my new album, Memory Almost Full. I'm very lucky."
Hand-picked
Sir Paul's pleased that Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne are hosting the Brits as it will be like "old mates" on stage.
If you do one of those duets, I'm not sure the audience likes them as much.
He won't reveal who's presenting his Outstanding Contribution prize but will say he hand-picked that person and they were his first choice.
As for what he'll be performing on the night; "When you do these shows people do say 'Oh, he'll pull something special out.'
"But it's like ten minutes so we'll just be doing a couple of hits." No duets then.
"I think if you do one of those duets, I'm not sure the audience likes them as much as you just doing one of your hits.
No duet rule
I think if I was watching the Rolling Stones, seeing Mick (Jagger) duet with Amy (Winehouse), it would be kind of interesting but I'd probably rather he did Satisfaction."
The photo's the last order of business and I even get a hug. As I leave I can't help unprofessionally blurting out how I'm pleased he didn't turn out to be a w***er.
Luckily Sir Paul laughs.
The Brit Awards take place on Wednesday 20 February at Earl's Court in London

OZZY OSBOURNE is to fulfill a lifelong dream at the Brit Awards — by performing with his hero SIR PAUL McCARTNEY.
Brits bosses are thrashing out the final details for The Prince Of Darkness to join Macca for an explosive finale.
Aptly for Ozzy, after his well documented booze and drugs battles, they will perform Paul’s classic Bond theme Live And Let Die. And if it does come off it will all be down to Ozzy’s wife SHARON.
The X Factor judge has used her influence — and the couple’s gig as awards hosts — to set up the once in a lifetime opportunity for her hubby.
She said: “They go together really well. It will be amazing.”

Sir Paul will also be presented with an Outstanding Contribution To Music gong at the bash, being held at London’s Earls Court on February 20.

A show source reckons the performance will go down as one the most memorable in its history.
He told me: “Sharon is a very determined woman and wants it to be the best Brits ever. She’s been in touch with lots of the legendary music business names she knows personally.

“It was her idea for a duet between Ozzy and Sir Paul. If it happens, it will be unmissable.”
The Brits is renowned for its duets. The most memorable in recent times came in 2003 when JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE sang with KYLIE, grabbing the pint-sized Aussie’s rear during the performance.
But king of the duets is JAMIROQUAI star JAY KAY. In 1997 he teamed up with soul legend DIANA ROSS to perform her hit Upside Down. And in 2005 he did DONNA SUMMER’s Bad Girls with ANASTACIA.
;
Ozzy is a self-confessed mop-top fan and has long been a champion of Paul’s. He has said: “McCartney’s a genius. THE BEATLES were the greatest band ever.
“The only problem I have with him is even God has a p***ed off day.
“No one can be that happy all the time. Even Mr Happy gets a sore ass sometimes.”
Ozzy voted Paul’s latest album Memory Almost Full as his favourite of 2007 in a web survey.
And he’s even admitted having rather sinister fantasies about the Scouser. He said: “I used to dream, ‘Wouldn’t it be great if Paul McCartney married my sister?’. My bedroom wall was covered in pictures of him.”
If Sharon gets her way, there will be plenty more photos for Ozzy to hang up.
