http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=291169 Calvin Harris has gone from a small time Scottish DJ to one of the biggest selling acts in the world and he says he has Rihanna to thank for it all. Harris has confessed that teaming up with Rihanna for their number one single 'We Found Love' was the best decision he ever made for his career and has helped increase his popularity with the American audience. "It changed absolutely everything. Career-wise it was the best thing that could ever have happened," he told The Sun . "For example, in America my tune 'Feel So Close' came out about three months before." He continued: "But when We Found Love came out, the radio started playing 'Feel So Close' like it was the single after. Then that did really well, it charted well and sold a lot of copies." Harris has previously said that 'We Found Love' was offered to other singers before it was eventually released by RiRi. Leona Lewis worked with producer Calvin Harris on the song, but claims it was given to the Bajan star when she refused to release it as the lead single from the LP. The pairs tracked picked up the Best Video gong at this year's MTV Video Music Awards beating the likes of Katy Perry and M.I.A. Calvin Harris is gearing up for the release of his new album 18 Month, set for release' next week, which sees him teamed up with the likes of Tinie Tempah, Dizzee Rascal and Florence & The Machine. Calvin Harris自己说到 没有蕾娜唱他写的We Found Love 他就不会有现在的名声 (应该是指对於一般大众来说 他在电音界里面本来就很有名了) 他说到在We Found Love发行前几个月 他的单曲Feel So Close已经送电台 但是成绩一直没有甚麽起色 直到 We Found Love一推出之後 大众才慢慢知道他这个人 Feel So Close才又起死回生 唉唷 两个人互相啊 We Found Love也算是蕾娜的一个里程碑了!!!! 另外这首歌本来要给Leonw Lewis唱... 结果她拒绝拿这首歌来当作专辑主打 所以他就把这首歌拿来给蕾娜唱了 (中间我记得也有拿过给Shakira 但也是被拒绝了) 蕾娜真的塞到!!!!! 是说Leona唱应该会还不错喔!!!!! --
