Yep bit of a DD fan.. blame my wife for that one [;)]

As it turns out they are one of my faveourite bands of all time. Really like their newer stuff as well. Not too sure about that movie you speak of... but will see what I can find.

Latebar is a great track too BTW [;)]

"Latebar" is my fave DD song EVER. I love all their early B-Sides. Remember years ago in one's teen DD-fandom days that you thought you were the only one who'd heard these B-Sides ? Mmmmm..[8D]

The Nile Rodgers & Simon project song was called, "do that dance". Released in Japan in 1996, it has 4 rare tracks in which Simon sings backing.

Hope this bit of info helps out.

There is also a song by Sister Sledge that came out in the mid-80s called "Lost in Music" which featured Simon and also John Taylor on backup vocals. They only sing a tiny bit, but Simon's voice is unmistakable! I can post a link if you want.[:)] It's nice just for a slice of mid-80s dance R & B.
