Top 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.
