Okay , VH , Jet , Hoot , Westside, and Granny (others are more than welcome to join us ).
In this thread, I'm interested in seeing if there's some songs that you enjoy that features a rather odd pairing of performers. Maybe a couple of singers or a singer and group who you would have never thought of doing a collaboration. Here's an example of what I have in mind:
Plant & Krauss ... Two legends , hauntingly beautiful , just gold !!! Take a listen.

When I heard they were doing an album together, I thought it was crazy. They are two of the all-time greatest vocalists in my opinion, but how were they ever gonna blend together, their styles seemed so different. Then I listened to the album, “Raising Sand” I think it’s called, and came away thinking, Damn that was great.
I guess one of the oddest was the Aerosmith-Run D.M.C. pairing for ‘Walk This Way’, which gave Aerosmith’s career a second wind. Rock and hip hop didn’t mix at the time, but that collaboration opened it up. I still like the original Aerosmith version better though.

I'm a classic rock guy(and classic country) . Two of my all-time favorites are Elton John and Tammy Wynette. Elton was a huge Wynette fan. Elton actually started out as a teenager singing country songs in English pubs. Elton and Bernie Taupin wrote this song specifically for Elton to sing with Tammy. Absolutely gorgeous!

*BING & BOWIE *
I can't let a Christmas go by without cueing this up two or three times . A classic television moment. Sadly, Mr. Crosby died before the show aired.

I think Elton added to this song and made it better.
I'm not a big Em fan, but I loved Elton's contributions to the song and I loved the story of how Marshall refused to perform at the Grammys unless Elton performed with him and how they developed a close friendship afterwards.
