step right up step right up come on
ladies and gentlemen gather round two
voices for the price of one who doesn’t
love a bargains
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
classic duets number 10 Paul McCartney
and Stevie Wonder evany and ivory
every bit together
some vocal duets turn into vocal duels
Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder proved
that sometimes less is more
the effortless vocals of these assured
superstars play in musical harmony to
punch home the songs message of racial
harmony sure the songs a little
saccharine but the message and the
performers have power despair number
nine tell me about it
stag john travolta and olivia
newton-john you’re the one that I want I
got chills they’re multiplyin
Oh Greece maybe the word but this song
is the spark of that hit movie this
feisty fiery duet shot to number one in
a dozen countries and Travolta’s
explosive energy brings out an
aggressive sexuality in newton-john that
was only hinted at before it’s hard to
rock and smolder at the same time but
these two dudes just that number eight
Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell ain’t no
mountain high enough Deana Ross’s
version charted higher than the 1967
original but the passage of time has
designated this duet version as
definitive as with their later you’re
all I need to get by gay and Terrell’s
voices we bounce and shimmer on mountain
building to an eruption that is pure
Motown magic
Hey
Hey
number seven Elton John and Kiki Dee
don’t go breaking my heart
Ellen John and Kiki DS 1976 fashion
sense might go over like a lead balloon
today but the song remains golden the
two produced pure pop fireworks that
propel the song straight to the top of
the charts it’s catchy it’s cute and it
captures the era perfectly Elton later
performed the song with other leading
ladies including Miss Piggy and RuPaul
but he kicks the most with Kiki
don’t already
number six Paul McCartney and Michael
Jackson say say say say the King of Pop
had already had a thriller filled year
in 1983 when this duet with Sir Paul
rocketed up the charts around the world
the ninth biggest hit of the 1980s in
the u.s. say say say is pure sizzle yes
the two voices blend in oh so sweet
harmonies but it’s the electrifying
tension underneath that gives the song
its propulsive energy
number five
Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers islands in
the stream we got something rolling
Nashville superstars Dolly Parton and
Kenny Rogers
singing a song by disco Kings the Bee
Gees sound like a recipe for disaster
but with the brothers give in romance
mode the singers chemistry fits right in
even with a line like I set out to get
you with a fine-tooth comb the number
one u.s. country single of 1983 and
that’s saying something
we’re alive
number four Nat King Cole and Natalie
Cole unforgettable
that’s what you are
this classic duet could easily have been
dead on arrival considering that one of
the singers Nat King Cole had been
deceased for 26 years when it was
released in 1991 instead adding daughter
Natalie’s tender yet soulful vocals to
her father’s gently wistful
interpretation of unforgettable results
in a duet that is drop-dead gorgeous a
top 15 hit it sold tons of albums seven
million in the US alone
got someone Shawn
and for
number three Frank and Nancy Sinatra
something stupid I know I stand in line
until you think you have the time to
spend an evening with me
a couple of the lyrics an unforgettable
may sound a little odd coming from a
father and daughter but that’s nothing
in something stupid father Frank Sinatra
and daughter Nancy sing lines like and
after once we drop into a quiet little
place and have a drink for two and the
time is right your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
can you say incest but listeners in 1967
didn’t care the song spent four weeks at
number one in the US and earned gold
record status then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid like I love
number two bill medley and Jennifer
Warnes I’ve had the time of my life
this dirty dancing mega hit reached
number one in the US and was the biggest
single of 1988 in Australia and the
Netherlands even the best song Oscar
went to this searingly romantic duet not
only do bill medleys righteously robust
vocals and Jennifer Warnes blazing
sensuality helped deliver a movie magic
moment in the film they also create a
song than has been on the obligatory
playlist of every wedding reception
since
number one Diana Ross and Lionel Richie
endless love my there’s only you in my
life
endless loved the movie endless boredom
endless loves the song endless
enchantment the tunes unabashed
romanticism is the perfect showcase for
the tender honey drenched vocals of
Diana Ross and Lionel Richie they’re
smooth as silk harmony certainly seduced
music buyers the song spent nine weeks
at number one in the u.s. in 1981 is it
all a bit over the top
sure but it doesn’t matter the public’s
love for these two singers is pretty
much endless
