A reason why one should collaborate. Apparently the rights of this song have been sold to Vanilla Ice!
Heard this at a bar last night and can't get rid of it. Thankfully, it's one hell of a song...

#copyright Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie.. Robert Van Winkle AKA "Vanilla Ice" and his handlers thought they could just borrow this song and not give any credit or money to Queen and David Bowie.The record sold over 7 million copies back in 1990 and Mr. Winkle settled with Queen and Bowie for an undisclosed amount. Ice Ice Baby was the B side of a record - the A side featured a song called Play that Funky Music - Yup he didn't get permission for that either and had to pay Wild Cherry over $500,000 US. Both videos are below. As well as another Under pressure on vimeo. Also #FunkyFriday #IloveQueen #AllhailBrianMay

Just heard an interview with Jonathan Taylor where he talked about how Bowie and Mercury improvised individually then combined the vocals later. Two true geniuses at work.
