Britney and the Sex Pistols?!

  WHAT??!!! That's what i thought too. But it turns out one of the old cranky farts of punk rock wants to work with Britney Spears. Yes, those two. Making music. A founder of punk f@#%ing rock, wants to write a song for Britney Spears. What has he been smoking?! No, it's not Sid Vicious (well duh), but the infamous Johnny Rotten who wants to collaborate with the distressed pop princess.

"I haven't written a song for Britney yet but I would love to. I’d like to help out because there’s a girl who needs some help,” he said. “She’s been hurt. And hurt is the root core essence of good music.”

Johnny's right about music stemming from pain. What do you think of the two working on the same song? Yeah, my eyes couldn't believe it either. It'll be up to my ears if Johnny gets his wish. I mean really? Johnny Rotten AND Britney Spears. For some reason I don't think their music togethor would sound like pop punk, if you know what I mean. And that's a good thing.

I know some people are going WTF? WTF? at this idea, asking if Johnny Rotten has finally gone senile, but I can understand why he would do this. He's gone through similiar states like she has, fame, drugs, .. Johnny can relate to her troubles. Even though those two come from completely different musical origins - the very beginnings of punk, and she a teenage pop star, they do share troubles and erratic behavior.

By putting his name with Ms.Spears, Johnny has guranteed that the Sex Pistols will get more than just the usual number of hits on the search engines.We'll just have to see if this happens!

  +   = angry music.

The Sex Pistols are currently on tour, and recently played the Hard Rock in Las Vegas, their only US stop. For one of the first anarchists in punk, theyve been cashing in on alot of this. *sigh* In other news, Britney Spears is up for an Emmy nomination as a guest actress.

Just peachy. ;)

This is one of the most odd things that I have ever heard in my life. I think the world has gone upside down or inside out or something. =/

I actually see nothing odd about this. There are plenty of musicians who collaborate with people of different genres.

yes, but it is johnny and britney. its just that they are unlikey pair. its not too much of a genre issue, but a quality one. many people think her music is less than stellar (but hey, the sex pistols werent technically proficient either)

But it doesn't hurt to try a collaboration of the both of them... they might come up with something great. They might not. It's a 50/50 chance of a hit. We'll see what happens if it sucks big toes or not.

This actually doesn't surprise me with Johnny. There was a show on Fuse awhile back called the Bodog Battle of the Bands in which Johnny was a judge, and I was excited to hear Johnny's acerbic wit used on some of these guys, but he was surprisingly...nice. He showed that he truly is a musician and appreciates his work....so, I thought that until he threatened to murder the audience at the Isle of Wight Festival....now, that's the Johnny I remember. I'd actually be a little curious to hear what this collaboration would sound like.

Ummmm...wow.....like everyone else, I'm curious to see how it will unfold.
