RATM request SuBo duet
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 31 March 2010
Rage Against The Machine frontman Zack de la Rocha has said that he bears Simon Cowell no ill will after the band and ‘X-Factor’ winner Joe McElderry went head to head for the Christmas number one last December, and to prove it he’s asked Cowell to let them duet with Susan Boyle at their free gig in Finsbury Park later this year.
De la Rocha told The Sun: “I really hope there are no hard feelings with Simon. He seemed to think that it was a bullying campaign but the truth is the British people wanted a change.I don’t think anybody has heard anything of that Joe guy since Christmas, but we have nothing against him”.
He continued: “The truth is Simon’s shows occasionally produce talent. We love Susan Boyle, she is hot. To show there are no hard feelings we would like her to perform with us on stage this summer. She is a great vocalist and we would love to perform ‘Killing In The Name’ with her. Everybody knows her in the US and she can add her vocals to anything. It would be an honour for us”.
