Media Rumour
Jack White and Alicia Keys go toe-to-toe in studio, then make history with 'Quantum of Solace' song - reports the Chicago Sun Times.
Things got a bit testy, the paper has been told, at the taping of the Alicia Keys-Jack White duet for the new James Bond film.
A source at the taping says Keys was not happy with a number of technical details and initially wasn't too crazy about the song itself. She also wasn't totally in sync with how the song was being produced.
White, of White Stripes fame, had penned "Another Way to Die," which will be the theme song for the 22nd 007 film, "Quantum of Solace," again starring the latest Bond, Daniel Craig.
While Keys and White apparently struggled with a few "artistic differences," they did make history. This will be the first James Bond film theme that's a duet.
"Quantum of Solace" is scheduled to be released Nov. 7, but the duet track will be released through J Records Oct. 28. White is also the drummer on the song. The confirmation of Keys and White teaming by Bond producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli ended months of speculation about who would get the gig.
Thanks to `Pierce - Daniel` for the alert.
