TEXAS star Sharleen Spiteri has revealed that the "dulcet tones" of Alan Rickman will appear on the opening track of Texas' forth-coming album, 15 years after the band featured the Hollywood actor in their video for In Demand.
HE may be best known for playing big screen baddies but Sharleen Spiteri knew Alan Rickman would be the hero when she turned to him for help…
Not that she gave her old Hollywood pal much option.
Sharleen has revealed how she ordered Rickman into the studio to sing on Texas’ next single – 15 years after they featured together on the video for the band’s In Demand.
Now, the Die Hard actor’s voice will be heard on Start A Family, the opening track on her multi-million selling Glasgow group’s forthcoming new album, Texas 25.
It features reworked versions of hits spanning their career as well as three new songs.
And Sharleen, 47, is thrilled that Rickman, 68, agreed to contribute. She said: “We’re celebrating 25 years. What’s not to like about that? We had done a version of Start A Family and thought it would be interesting to do something a bit different.
“That’s when I called and asked Alan if he’d like to do a bit of singing, which he laughed hysterically at.
“He went, ‘Really?’ I went, ‘Really, Alan, we need your dulcet tones, so get your his a**e down here’.

“We enlisted him in for that, then before Christmas I asked if he fancied being in the video as well because his voice is there, so it would be good to do a version as something special and a celebration of a friendship that has been long and lustrous.”
Rickman talks his way through most of his lines before singing a short segment.
Sharleen added: “His vocal is so beautiful because it has that broken feel to it. The song is emotional in the first place but he was putting the poignancy of lyrically what it was all about. That was very much why we got Alan in.
“The song is about choices and paths, the direction you want to take and knowing there are people that have got your back. If you let that in, the path you choose will be stronger and better for you.
“I say you can start a family or you can start a war. It is about contradictions. The two most important things in life. To give love, to be loved, to have love or to hate and be hated.”
