Nicky Wells: Love & Thrills 
Hi Nicky
Up early again. At least on Mondays when I wake up like this, I have something I can do.
The moment I heard your song for this week read your prompt for us to reply to, I immediately thought of a duet in which they sing about the difference between the sexes. The song I thought of comes from “Funny Girl” [movie] starring Barbra Streisand & Omar, and the song is:
Hope you and your followers will enjoy listening to it.
With this done, I can go back to the arms of Morpheus for some additional snooze time.
Oooh I like it, Robin, thank you very much! 🙂 x Hope you got some more sleep!
I’ve never heard this song by Pink before, I’ve missed out on a chunk of her career. Duets can be really hit and miss affairs but I really loved Broken Strings with Nelly Furtado and James Morrison, the Stevie Wonder song ‘As’ covered by Mary J Blige & George Michael. But my favourite at the moment is probably this, Set The Fire To The Third Bar – it’s just urgent and powerful and I loved that it probably introduced Martha Wainwright to a more mainstream audience. I met her once and she’s also toured with Ed Harcourt. I know Gary Lightbody wrote this with her in mind and was stoked that she agreed to record it with Snow Patrol:
It’s just gorgeous and haunting. I love it.
Wow, gorgeous and haunting captures it! Thank you, Yasmin, it’s really good to see you here again!!! Thanks for visiting and commeting! X
Oo, good call! I’d say “Fate” is one of my favorite duets. 🙂
OOOOOH like like LIKE!
