Timbaland and Timberlake Tune-up Duran Duran

Justin Timberlake has contributed to a song on the forthcoming Duran Duran album with Timbaland as producer.

"Justin asked to hear everything we'd recorded and at the end he said, 'I think you need an Ordinary World to round things out," lead singer Simon LeBon said in a statement.

It wasn't hard to get JT involved. Justin claims his favourite song of all time is Duran Duran's 1992 hit 'Ordinary World'.

The song, Timberlake revealed, had been his favorite song when he was a pop crazed 14 year old. And as LeBon remarks, with powerful understatement: "What goes around, comes around."

Together they recorded the track 'Falling Down for the forthcoming album 'Red Carpet Massacre'.

It is "very Duran Duran. He (Simon) wrote some very melancholic/inspirational/cryptic lyrics that are beautiful," explains Justin.

'Red Carpet Massacre' will be released on November 26th.
