Maria
She's doing well isn't she.
She's actually got a gig in Japan soon, but only one night, in Tokyo or Yokohama. Shame she can't come west. :)

Good on her. Impressive and talented individual.

She's quite a talent and she's on a roll, and she should make the most of the momentum. Good for her! I just hope that she can keep on with a successful career and that the media and fickle public don't decide to turn against her in the future. Look at the lyrics for 'They Called It Rock' by Nick Lowe to get the idea.

Hopefully that last verse won't happen to her.
Anyway, congratulations Billie and keep on rockin'!

Does anybody care to bet that maybe Billie might score with the highest-charting (and best) James Bond theme song since 'View to a Kill' by Duran Duran? That one deservedly topped the US charts.

Possibly. I liked the song at the time but dearie me, Le Bon's vocals are all over the shop.
My recent favorites are the Chris Cornell, Alicia Keys and Jack White themes. Oh, and Adele's was proper old school, too.

I like those too. I always liked Duran Duran and I always will. They have style, substance and class. They got the laudation of 'The Fab Five' for their videogenic looks but I love their adventurous (and sometimes mischievous) videos and their classiness behind the glam. It was only fitting that they inducted Roxy music into the Rock'n'roll Hall of Fame last year.
And since Billie is now on a roll I hope she makes the most of her momentum. Go girl, GO!
