I like that idea.....you get time on your own to formulate ideas and then Skype them with a collaborator to come up with the basis for a song...then you can go away and polish it up. My big frustration is not being able to discuss in depth the finer points....emails take such a long time and there is always something about interaction in real time that you cannot get without being face to face. I believe that Ebony and Ivory was written and recorded without Jackson and Macca ever meeting flesh to flesh.
