    I love 'em.

    My top dozen:

    You Don't Bring Me Flowers (Streisand and Diamond)
    Time To Say Goodbye (Bocelli and Brightman)
    I Got You Babe (Bono and Cher)
    One (Bono and Blige) (just ahead of the U2 head man with The Chairman of the Board, Pavarotti and Alicia Keys)
    Walk This Way (Run DMC and Aerosmith)
    Perhaps Love (Domingo and Denver)
    Crazy in Love (Beyonce and Jay-Z)
    Don't Go Breaking My Heart (John and Dee)
    Under Pressure (Bowie and Mercury)
    Hunger Strike (Cornell and Vedder)
    Endless Love (Richie and Ross)
    Fairytale of New York (Pogues and McColl)

    One of the great aspects of this site for me is how many great artists and songs I have mined from iTunes based on board recommendations.

    What are your favorites in this genre?

    Whatever happened to him? I really liked him but it seems like he fell off of the earth in the late '80's.
