Guess who, reportedly, has not called or contacted Brian yet?
If you guessed Lady Ga Ga you are correct!
In a new interview today (June 15, 2011) a radio program from Tampa, Fl interviewed Brian and the interview is posted to Brian's website. The discussion was mostly centered on Brian's animal rights work, however at the end it does venture into music. Brian describes how he was approached about the guitar work for Ga Ga's "You and I" and how he cleared his schedule to develop and record it because it had a one day turnaround/deadline. So far, he reveals, he has yet to meet or even hear from Lady Ga Ga despite the new album being number one in the UK. The radio host expresses surprise to hear that bit of news and Brian says perhaps it's "lost in the post."
Oh dear.
So Ga Ga pick up the phone and call Brian ASAP. "Thank you" - 2 words we all need to hear and Brian deserves.
Got nothing on Kanye...
Kanye basically rapped over a Daft Punk song... they showed up to back him up at the Grammys.. and when Kanye won... no mention or thanks.
I hope they got paid big time.
It finally happened last night on national tv in the USA.
GaGa & Brian on stage at the Video Music Awards performing "You & I".
She gave a big intro to him and Brian really took to the stage like a champ with his searing solo.
Their portion on stage together lasted 2 minutes and was awesome!
GaGa all is forgiven - you did the right thing and you've made it right.
Guess that call went through after all :)
