5 Music Pairings
I was hanging out over at my bro’s a few
weeks ago, he’d had a few too many beers and we were vegging out in front
of the TV watching VH1 Classic’s metal hour and I don’t know where the
conversation started but my brother suddenly came up with the brilliant
idea that a certain hard rock icon needed to do a song with a king of adult
contemporary or should we say cheese. I chuckled and then we began
discussing who would be some of the strangest duets and that’s where this
list came from. I will warn you not all of the pairings we came up
with are gems but it’s a fun exorcise none the less. I did leave
a few notable pairing offs. We know Bono would never duet with Jesus unless
he got top billing and it’s a given that if there is money involved Gene
Simmons will do anything with anybody, anywhere. Elton and Eminem would
have been a good one but strangely enough that already happened. Lars Ulrich
is kind of unpredictable these days; ten years ago who would have imagined
him doing anything with someone like Ja Rule, maybe he could team up with
Justin Timberlake or drum on a Nelly song?
So here are some the strange duets we came
up with and then you’ll have an opportunity to post your own.
Top 5 Music Pairings
5) Lemmy and Jon Bon Jovi – Lemmy
growls at Jon, “You give rock a bad name.” Before Jon can respond Lemmy
knocks him unconscious.
4) Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider and
Mandy Moore – Dee sings “I Wanna Rock!” and
Mandy responds “I Wanna Be With You”.
(like that will ever happen.)
3) Axl Rose and Missy Elliot – “Sweet
Ho Of Mine, Yo!” Axl sings most of it with Missy adding a “Yo!” to
the end each line. When she can remember the lyric that is.
2) Zack De La Rocha and Ted Nugent
doing “Che Guevara Fever” – that actually might be a fun match up, but
Ted would most likely end up using Zach for target practice.
The number one Music Pairings:
Alice Cooper and Barry Manilow doing “I
Write The Songs That Make the Whole World Scream”. Just sit back
a minute and imagine that really happening.
