Pharrell wants Elton John duet
Thursday, February 6 2014 |
Pharrell Williams has revealed that a collaboration with Elton would make him "Happy."
The "Get Lucky" singer-songwriter, who has scored an Oscar nomination for his track "Happy," even named his son Rocket after Elton's hit "Rocket Man." "I really respect Elton John's music and I'd love to do something with him," he said.
"Contrary to popular belief, Rocket's middle name is not Man. But Elton John's Rocket Man song was a part of it and also Stevie Wonder's Rocket Love. But Elton would be really interesting."
Pharrell, who has worked with the likes of Snoop Dogg, Daft Punk, Nile Rodgers, Jay Z and Robin Thicke on hits such as Get Lucky, Blurred Lines and Drop It Like It's Hot, would also like to bring the warring Gallagher brothers - Noel and Liam - back together. "Who wouldn't want to work with the Gallaghers? Yeah, both of them. And I can't give this away but I'm a huge fan of Jamiroquai. Man, I'd love to," he added.
The 40-year-old also dreams of working with Stevie Wonder on a record, following their performance of Daft Punk's Get Lucky at the Grammys last month. "I would love to do a whole album with Stevie Wonder. That would be amazing. He doesn't need me, but it'd be amazing," he said.
