Pop band Millionaires have covered the song 'Le Freak' for MTV's upcoming film Turn the Beat Around, which will air on February 26th.

'Le Freak' was originally released in 1978 by disco/R&B artists Chic on their album C'est Chic. Mtv's use of this track continues the ongoing collaboration with the band which had previously provided tracks for other Mtv shows including My Life As Liz and A Double Shot at Love.

Pfffft, I forget half my zingers.

I think it was something along the lines of, "Millionaires Get Freaky for MTV" or something as amazingly hilarious as that.

The point of the matter is, staff members keep being douchebags.

Millionaires have this complicated, progressive sound. What with their jazzy post-rock interludes, genius time-signature changes, and it's like they even create their own scales of notes. Their lyrics are nothing but pure, soulful poetry dripping to the core with metaphor and abstract thought which you have to dissect to get their introspective meaning.

While my opinion may be unpopular, you really do have to be musically mature to fully get the Millionaires for the artists they truly are. King Crimson is an obvious influence on their style, and they've finally surpassed their 'teacher', so to speak, with their latest songs.

You have to listen to the real intricate, yet minimalistic bridges while tuning in to their artwork. You see, I refuse to call it even an album anymore, it really is nothing but pure art.

For example, one of their true masterpieces is 'I Like Money'. It is simply an example of how varied and progressive they are with their inclusion of latin guitar and retrospective social commentary and soaring note structure.

I'd rather die than listen to a brokeNCYDE/Millionaires song. They're grouped into the same level of bad, even if brokeNCYDE are better musicians cause they can actually play an instrument.

I really like how they evoke the concepts of sex and alcohol. No one's ever really done it quite so well before, or with quite the same vocal supremacy.

I have met one girl those glasses looked good on ever and she was wearing ONLY them during sex. She had just had lasik 4 days earlier so couldn't take em off cause it was day time. Her being naked was probably the only reason they looked good.
