yes! the most unlikely duet ever, really. Bowie must have gone a day without acid to pull that off at the time. And, the result is haunting and beautiful - it's one of my (few) favourite Christmas songs.
I was about to post this when I noticed you already had! One of the best duets EVER!

How about Huey Lewis and Gwyenth Paltrow?! (in the movie Duets? not bad actually.) And it's not quite a duet, but Kenny Rogers makes an appearance on Wyclef Jean's second last CD. So bizarre it works.

Why is the Grease duet 'unlikely'?
Love, love, love the Kelly Clarkson / Reba McEntire combo, though.

Unlikely because I grew up knowing John Travolta as one of the sweathogs on Welcome Back Kotter, so the very idea of him singing was a outrageous as seeing wimpy Bruce Willis from Moonlighting become the new action guy in Die Hard. And Olivia Newton-John just seemed impossibly old.

what a delightfully fun article! Looking forward to listening to some of these. I love the duet between Bono and Sinatra...but what Christmas carol was it now...hmm...I also love Bono's One with Mary Blige and Bono's "when love came to town" with BB King. Okay...maybe I got a theme here...maybe I'd like my own duet with Bono!
Bono's duet with Sinatra was "I got you under my skin", but it's been removed from UTube so I can't share a link here. Maybe i-tunes for those of us with that program.
