Gorillaz co-creators Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett spoke to Radio X's Dan O'Connell about the band's upcoming album The Mountain and looked back at some of their best collabs as well as what might have been.
"I nearly made a record with Ray Davies and David Bowie back in the late '90s, admitted Albarn. "That didn't happen, so..."
Elsewhere, the duo revealed that Dionne Warwick was so close to recording with the band twice, but didn't like the band's devilish title for their Demon Days record.
