"Most male/female duets really make me wish the bloke had just shut his wee giggy*, but I really like both vocalists in Shelleyan Orphan."

Example: Spirogyra, though the bloke's voice grows on you somewhat. I think the problem is Barbara Gaskin is in possession of such a deliciously fine set of chords, you wonder why anyone else would want to nab the microphone off her.

It's pretty obvious, but what a duet!

Shane & Kirsty

Amazing still. What a songwrighter, and what a singer.

I'm gonna twist it here for a bit! Things sung when the person you want isn't there!

NC&SMcG

It's amazing to think that these two headcases are probably the most two poetic geniuises we've seen in the last 50 years.

I play music with a woman, but we fall out alot. Why? No idea. I like to sing this un, just to annoy her at 5 AM.

The Cocteau Twins. Not really a duet, although it really was.

My family used to laugh at me for listening to The Cocteaus.

Fools!

Liz Fraser/Robin Guthrie version. Amazing.
