Pull out your notebook. This one might get a little hairy. Pitchfork is reporting that Billboard has reported (got that?), that Lyle Lovett has record the title track to the upcoming John C. Reilly, music spoof biopic, “Walk Hard: The Story of Dewey Cox” (in a throw-away line at the end of their article)
Not only is it Mr. Lovett, he’s enlisted the oh-so-wacky trio of Jewel, Jackson Browne and wait for it, Ghostface Killah [PFM says Word? Word!; Lovett, Jewel and Browne all appear in one version of the trailer]
However, you’ll rememeber, that we reported what Rolling Stone had reported (in an article not online, follow?) that Marshall Crenshaw had recorded the title track.
So media, which one is it?
Ah, but maybe it’s all in the details, Billyboredy say Lovett recorded the title track. Maybe Crenshaw still wrote it. Wait, did we just answer our own question? Was this post all for not?
