Posted November 23, 200816 yr This is from a Digital Spy article. Probably worth taking it with a pinch of salt! * James Morrison has revealed that he wants Sugababes star Keisha Buchanan to join him on tour. The pair performed Morrison's new single 'Broken Strings' together on the BBC's Children In Need last week. The original version of the song, which is taken from Morrison's second album Songs for You, Truths for Me, features vocals from Canadian singer Nelly Furtado. "I've got some shows coming up and I want Keisha to come out again and sing with me," Morrison told the Daily Star. "Live is a better way to go - we won't record it. "Keisha is underestimated as a singer because she's part of a group. She's really soulful." "She is the Sugababes for me - she's always been there," he added. "We first met at the Royal Variety Show and have kept in touch." * If he did say all of that it's really cute and their voices worked so well together at CIN that I'd love it to be true. :D

November 26, 200816 yr Author It happened! From the Shepherds Bush Empire: 26/11/2008 Review: James Morrison HE may not be the coolest kid on the block, but James Morrison can certainly surprise live. His smooth blue-eyed soul sounds like Bill Withers if you're being generous, or Michael Bolton if not. Either way, he proved a cut above the dull Blunts and Nutinis. Starting with The Only Night, which bears an uncanny similarity to ABC's When Smokey Sings, Morrison had plenty of tricks up his sleeve with Sugababe's Keisha Buchanan even turning up unannounced to duet on Broken Strings. Morrison definitely did best, though, when he moved away from the schmaltz and upped the tempo. New songs like Precious Love had a cheesy but fun gospel vibe, while the stomping Nothing Ever Hurt Like You segued perfectly into Stevie Wonder's Uptight without sounding corny. The same couldn't be said of his pointless cover of Bowie's Changes, which reeked of X-Factor showiness. But backed up with slick, smooch-tastic hits like You Give Me Something, last night's show was, overall, a pleasing mix of the surprisingly rough with the very very smooth. -Oliver Keens * :D Wooh.
