In the Q-magazine of June this year there was a very interesting 
article about Bryan Adams and Adrian Deevoy of Q-magazine. 
They've written and recorded a song together, called 'That's 
Enough About You (What About Me)'. The recording happened on 23rd 
and 24th April at 'Hear No Evil Studios' in West London. It's 
Adams's local and personal favourite studio.

                  

  ADRIAN DEEVOY TOGETHER WITH BRYAN ADAMS IN A HEATED DISCUSSION

Some parts of that article:
Q first contacted Bryan to ask if he was interested in doing this. 
He said: "You write the lyrics, I'll do the melody. Then we'll go 
into the studio and record it."

Adrian Deevoy did and faxed it off and waited. The following 
afternoon a familiar croak came down the line. "These lyrics are 
great," Bryan said. Then, strangely enough, "I've been thinking 
about a sort of 'Heard It Through The Grapevine' vibe." The tele-
phone clicked onto conference and he began to play an accoustic 
guitar riff - a variation on the opening 'Grapevine' chords - and 
sang the verse melody he had in mind.
"What do you think?" he asked modestly. "I'm still trying to 
figure a middle eight but I'll have something for tomorrow. Are 
you OK to start recording then?". Yikes.

When we arrived at midday on Tuesday, Adams was already at work 
with his Scandinavian programmer and engineer Olle Romo, who has 
also worked on Adams's new CD '18 'Til I Die'.

Bryan first did some rhythm guitar before he started on the 
vocals. "Right," he said, determinedly striding towards the vocal 
room. "Let's nail this puppy." 

It was here that you started to realize why Bryan Adams is the 
megastar and you are not. By Christ, he can sing the arse out of a 
song. With one hand on his hip and his faced contorted with con-
centration he did the whole vocal in one take, complete with 
adlibs, blues grunts and soul man inflections. After a few se-
conds' silence, as the track spooled out, he said "Was it OK?". 
The puppy is well and truly nailed.

The next day, on Thursday, they put in some backing vocals and a 
guitar solo. Adams said that he'd like to change the title to 
'That's Enough About Me (What About Me)'. The brackets, he said, 
proved rather lucky for 'Everything I Do (I Do It For You)'.
Adams said that he might put it out on a B-side sometime.

Here we print a part of the songtext that Bryan and Adrian Deevoy 
wrote together:
