Calvin Harris on Roisin (again):
You had a run in with Roisin Murphy, of Moloko, who you've slagged off. What happened there?
It was my first co-writing session, with her (Murphy) and Cathy Dennis. She wouldn't listen to my ideas, so I'd relay them through Cathy, then she'd try them. We wrote two tunes, one a really good pop tune. It was to be the first single. The record company was pleased. Then she decided it wasn't her thing and didn't want to use it.
Why?
You tell me. At the time we'd been arguing publishing splits and legal stuff, so I'd paid my lawyer all sorts of money to work it out. She just let it drag on, so I had to pay the lawyer. Then she decided she wouldn't do the song. I can't use the track now. But then they had it reproduced by Jimmy Douglas, who's now on my hate hitlist.
