I have a great idea for a song, but I just need someone musically inclined to write and perform it. I'd be willing to give them 10% of the earnings when it hits number 1 on the billboard charts.

You're joking, but if Quincy Jones says that to Rod Temperton, you can bet there's a number one song coming out of this :-)

Of course, Quincy was a successful trumpeter and band leader before becoming a musical "idea guy" :-)
