OK, so I’m doing a series of duets with a friend of mine (female / male duets) and we are trying to do a collection of like 30 seconds each to sing. I was sure Dopers could add more to this list:
Sonny + Cher - I Got You Babe
Ike + Tina - (havent decided which one yet)
Joe Coker + Jennifer Warren - Time of my Life (Dirty Dancing song)
John Travolta + Olivia NJ - You’re the one that I want (Grease)
Conway + Lonetta - Lousiana Woman, Mississippi Man
Paul McCartney + Stevie Wonder - Ebony and Ivory
Huey Lewis + Gweneth P - Cruzin Together
Ozzie + Lita - close my eyes Forever
Peaches + herb - Reunited
Kid Rock + Cheryl Crow - Picture
Georgre jones + tammy wynette - (havent decided which one yet)
elton john + keekee dee - dont go breaking my heart
kenny rogers + dolly - islands in the stream
neil diamond + barbra streisand - you dont bring me flowers
tom petty +stevie nicks - stop dragging my heart around
marvin gaye + tammy - aint no mountain high enough and it takes two baby
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
Ah! Your reference to Joe Cocker + Jennifer Warnes fooled me. I thought you skipped the Dirty Dancing song “I’ve Had the Time of My Life”.
Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes sang together on the theme to Officer and a Gentleman – “Up Where We Belong”.

More duets:
James Taylor and Carly Simon - “Mockingbird”
Olivia Newton-John and Cliff Richard - “Suddenly”
Kenny Loggins and Stevie Nicks - “Whenever I Call You ‘Friend’”
Very old stuff but between the years 1950-54, Les Paul and Mary Ford had 16 top-ten hits. They had five top-ten hits within nine months: Tennessee Waltz,Mockin’ Bird Hill,How High the Moon ( #1 for nine weeks), The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise and Whispering. From August 1952 to March 1953 they had five more top-ten hits: My Baby’s Coming Home,Lady of Spain,Bye Bye Blues,I’m Sitting on Top of the World and Vaya Con Dios (#1 for 11 weeks). All the while, Les was pioneering multi-track recording and reinventing the electric guitar. Quite a run!
