Duet is a 2014 short film created by Disney animator Glen Keane. The project was done in conjunction with Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects Group (ATAP) as part of Google’s Spotlight Stories.
Keane initially said the following when he heard about the possible collaboration: "When I first looked at the phone and saw how small the screen was, I thought this wasn’t going to be for me...I realize now that I was wrong on that."
An interactive version allowed viewers to "follow either character or examine the various settings from various angles depending on how they moved their phones".
The film is "a hand-drawn, lyrical look at the intertwined lives of a boy and a girl from birth to adulthood".
The film garnered an Annie Award nomination, and is currently short listed for an Academy Award nomination too.
Duet is an album by trumpeter Lester Bowie and bassist Nobuyoshi Ino recorded in Japan in 1985 and released on the Paddle Wheel label. It features seven duet performances by Bowie and Ino.
The Allmusic review awarded the album 2 stars.
"Duett" is a power ballad in Norwegian, sung by Elisabeth Andreassen and Jan Werner Danielsen as a duet in the Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix 1994. The song won the Grand Prix, thus earning the right to represent Norway at the Eurovision Song Contest 1994.
The song deals with the power of song itself, with both performers describing the feelings they get from hearing the other's voice. They sing that it makes them feel free and united in spirit.
The song was performed seventeenth on the night, following Lithuania's Ovidijus Vyšniauskas with "Lopšinė mylimai" and preceding Bosnia and Herzegovina's Alma & Dejan with "Ostani kraj mene". At the close of voting, it had received 76 points, placing 6th in a field of 25.
It was succeeded as Norwegian representative at the 1995 contest by Secret Garden with "Nocturne".
"Duett" was also made in an English language version, where it's called "Duet". The single record featured the Norwegian-language version and the English-language version. It peaked at #3 at the Norwegian singles chart.
Trio! was a one-time acoustic jazz fusion supergroup during 2005. It consisted of bassist Stanley Clarke (from Return to Forever), jazz violinist Jean-Luc Ponty (from The Mothers of Invention, Mahavishnu Orchestra), and banjoist Béla Fleck (whose band was on a one-year hiatus).
Much of the material performed by Trio! was from The Rite of Strings, with Fleck on banjo instead of Al Di Meola on guitar.
Formed in mid-2005, Trio! toured the U.S. East Coast between May and October 2005, as well as playing dates in Canada, Spain, Switzerland, and The Netherlands. They performed at numerous jazz festivals, including the Newport Jazz Festival, Montreux Jazz Festival, the JVC Festival in Los Angeles, the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival in Burlington, VT, and the Syracuse Jazz Festival in Syracuse, NY (where the date of their performance was officially proclaimed "Bela Fleck, Stanley Clarke, and Jean-Luc Ponty Day" by the Mayor). This supergroup being a side project for all three members, and as Fleck went back on tour with the Flecktones to promote their album The Hidden Land, the group disbanded.
Trio is a collaboration album by three American performers, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris. The album, released in 1987, sold over 4 million copies worldwide and also received several awards, including two Grammy Awards. Parton, Ronstadt, and Harris released a second album, Trio II, in 1999.
Longtime friends and admirers of one another, Parton, Ronstadt and Harris first attempted to record an album together in the mid-1970s, but scheduling conflicts and other difficulties (including the fact that the three women all recorded for different record labels) prevented its release. Some of the fruits of those aborted 1970s recording sessions did make it onto the women's respective solo recordings. "Mister Sandman" and "Evangeline" appeared on Harris' album Evangeline and Parton's "My Blue Tears" was included on Ronstadt's 1982 album Get Closer. Rodney Crowell's "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" was on Harris' Blue Kentucky Girl album. Parton and Ronstadt also recorded a version of the traditional ballad "I Never Will Marry", which appeared on Ronstadt's 1977 Simple Dreams album, though that was recorded separately from these sessions, as was Rondstadt's cover of Hank Williams' "I Can't Help it if I'm Still in Love With You", from Heart Like a Wheel, on which she was joined by Harris. (During this time, Ronstadt and Harris also covered a number of Parton's compositions—Harris covered "Coat of Many Colors" and "To Daddy", and Ronstadt recorded "I Will Always Love You"—for inclusion on their various solo albums during the mid- to late-1970s; Parton, in turn, covered Harris' "Boulder to Birmingham" in 1976, including it on her All I Can Do album.)
Duos and trios are a family of mixed drinks. A duo contains a spirit and a liqueur; a trio additionally contains a creamy ingredient, commonly cream or Irish cream.
This family of drinks is named in Gary Regan's The Joy of Mixology. There is much variation in their ingredients, but their defining feature is that they are sweet due to their liqueur content.
A "B and B" is made from equal parts of cognac (brandy) and Bénédictine. It is typically served on the rocks, but may also be served straight. The producers of Bénédictine market this cocktail ready-mixed under the label "B & B."
Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes mentions "B & B and a little weed" in the song "Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye."
A Brave Bull is made by mixing tequila and Kahlúa.
A Dirty Mother is made by mixing brandy and Kahlúa.
A Rusty Nail is made by mixing Drambuie and Scotch. Many prefer less Drambuie to decrease the sweetness of the drink. Scotch has a fairly biting and hot taste that is counterbalanced by the honeyed, herbal overtones of the Drambuie. A Rusty Nail can be served in an old-fashioned glass on the rocks, neat, or "up" in a stemmed glass. It is most commonly served over ice. A Rusty Nail served without ice is sometimes called a Straight Up Nail. The Canadian version of this drink is called a "Donald Sutherland" and substitutes rye whiskey for Scotch.
I'm not the way that you found me
I'm never here or there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well
Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the inch
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us
You can cry like a baby
Just let me do what I need to
It might be to me or to you
Just let me do what I need to
I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well
Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the inch
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us
I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
Next I ain't doing so well
Let's go walk to the border
Let's go walk along the inch
Let's go when no one can see us
And find the difference between us
You can cry like a baby
Just let me do what I need to
It might be to me or to you
Just let me do what I need to
I'm not the way that you found me
I'm neither here nor there
One day I'm happy and healthy
