VinnyT. Posted September 4, 2008 at 10:48 AM Posted September 4, 2008 at 10:48 AM What can Celine Dion possibly have in common with prog-metal freakout band Mars Volta and avant-garde jazz saxophonist Pharoah Sanders? How does the queen of safe, adult contemporary soft pop, the great diva of the mainstream, even wind up on the same page as such far-out experimentalists? Because, when Carlos Santana was asked who he dreams of collaborating with in the future, those were the first of many names that the rock guitar legend rattled off in a recent interview. Santana, 61, is entirely serious about his love of Ms. Dion. "I'd like to do something with Celine,'' he says. "It's just (a matter) of finding the right song where, when you hear the first note, your hair stands up and you get goose bumps and you start crying even though you don't know why.'' Then again, perhaps this sort of jarring diversity in Santana's tastes shouldn't come as that much of a surprise. In a career that's spanned over 40 years, the Mexican virtuoso has teamed up with soul machines Booker T and the M.G.'s, country legend Willie Nelson and jazz fusion guitarist John McLaughlin. He's mingled musically with Jennifer Lopez, Dave Matthews, Mary J. Blige, Lauryn Hill, Michelle Branch, and Eric Clapton. He's racked up some of the biggest hits of his career in recent years working with Nickelback's Chad Kroeger and Rob Thomas of Matchbox Twenty. Santana is passionate about playing with other artists and it doesn't matter a lick to him whether they're critically revered or reviled. What does he look for in a collaborator? "When they sing it, I've gotta believe it,'' he says. "That's the requirement. They have to believe in it and I have to believe, and once we both believe, we let it fly.'' He adds: "I don't respond to the critics at all. I have yet to see someone erect a statue to a critic . . . Only an artist can identify with another artist.'' Santana adds that he wasn't always so open as to who he would collaborate with. "I'm changing,'' he says. "I used to be the hippy with the war paint on his face that wouldn't hang out with squares. But that guy is really transforming into seeing everyone . . . as children of God. . . . I don't dismiss anymore. If I can play with (acclaimed jazz saxophonist) Wayne Shorter, why shouldn't I also play with (not-so-acclaimed smooth jazz artist) Kenny G? Or Elton John? Or Elvis Costello? Or Michael Bolton? I'm open to all of that. I want to be in a place where my heart can complement any one you put in front of me.'' Dice che gli sarebbe sempre piaciuto collaborare con Celine,deve solo trovare la canzone "giusta" che già a partire dalla prima nota ti faccia rizzare i capelli e ti faccia venire i brividi fino a farti piangere senza sapere il perché Quote For Exclusive News "Like Us" on Facebook http://i44.tinypic.com/vfjwad.jpg click on the banner

EnsilBSB Posted September 4, 2008 at 01:56 PM Posted September 4, 2008 at 01:56 PM WOW!!! Sarebbe magnifico... Tra la chitarra di Santana e la voce di Céline verrebbe fuori certamente qualcosa di stupendo... Quote

ilvise Posted September 4, 2008 at 06:56 PM Posted September 4, 2008 at 06:56 PM (edited) mi ispira, sarebbe bello sentire un duetto con Santana si si poi come suggeriva Fabio anche un album di duetti non sarebbe una idea male, anche se Celine non duetta con tutti, vedo difficile fare un album intero anche se sarebbe bello, giustamente fa solo con chi se lo merita e direi che Santana puo' permetterselo !

Con calma ovviamente mi incuriosisce un duetto Celine-Santana: lui è molto bravo e Celine è Celine...chissà cosa verrebbe fuori, sicuramente qualcosa di meraviglioso... sarebbe bellissima l'idea di un album solo di duetti (magari doppio cd con duetti vecchi e nuovi)...
