Bonus points if he&#8217;s in a duet with a soft-voiced female. Which brings me to this cover of the xx&#8217;s &#8220;Crystalised&#8221; in which Lanegan twines his vocals with those of Martina-Topley Bird (with members of Warpaint providing musical accompaniment). Ever since she sang with Lanegan and Greg Dulli on &#8220;The Body&#8221; (from the Gutter Twins album <em>Saturnalia<\/em>), I&#8217;ve been wishing for a trio album of Dulli, Lanegan, and Topley-Bird.
