Unlikely musical pairings.

Top Five On Friday @ The Music Memoirs

Top Five Unlikely Musical Pairings



1. Computer Talk - Coldplay vs. Kraftwerk by Party Ben. Yes this one is a mashup, but it's actually pretty darned cool. There are a few good ones he's done on this site, for you to give a listen to.

2. Picture - Sheryl Crow and Kid Rock. This worked quite well though the version he did with Alison Moorer was a bit better.

3. I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra and Bono. THE reason to buy that first Duets CD!!!!

4. Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me - Elton John and George Michael. The reason I bought the Duets CD in the first place. Also worth it for a fun version of Don't Go Breakin' My Heart with Ru Paul. Funnily enough, Elton DOES team up with his old DGBMH partner, Kiki Dee, but here, on the song "True Love" which isn't bad at all either.

5. Not While I'm Around - Donny Osmond and Vanessa Williams. I don't know how unlikely the pairing itself is... I was just glad it happened. Their voices blended gorgeously on this piece from Broadway's Sweeney Todd found on Donny's "This Is The Moment" CD. One of my favorite tracks on this one.

I usually don't include downloads, but if you want to hear anything just drop me a comment and I'll see to that.

I think there's a Jimmy Buffett/Frank Sinatra Duet So many odd pairs out there :) Great choices!

I wouldn't mind hearing the Donny/Vanessa duet. I never knew he did one with her -- love both of their voices and am curious what they're like together. :)
