New music: The Script debuts Hall of Fame single feat will.i.am
As previously announced, The Script have debuted their new single titled "Hall Of Fame", a trck which was produced in collaboration with his fellow-judge on The Voice UK, rapper will.i.am. "Hall Of Fame" which will be released on September 2, premiered on Monday morning, July 23rd at CapitalFM.
The track is the first to be lifted from the Irish act's third studio album #3, which will be released on September 10. The Script frontman Danny O'Donoghue decided to hook up with will.i.am for the track after the pair worked together as coaches on The Voice UK. "I played Will a few demos backstage early on in The Voice," O'Donoghue told The Sun .
"We got to 'Hall Of Fame' and he immediately asked if he could have it for his new album, as it was exactly what he was looking for. I wasn't having it, it was our lead single but I asked if he'd be on it. He agreed and we booked in time to record it. The problem is, he's either late or completely flakes, so it took four attempts to get him to record his part."
The star added: "Eventually we put it together in his hotel room in 15 minutes. It's a classic duet, I do one line and he responds. We're really excited about it and hoping we'll get out and do it live too."
