What do you think of this duet?

Question

It's Bjork and Thom Yorke (Radiohead) from the Dancer in the Dark soundtrack. I was reminded of how much I loved the movie and soundtrack when this song came up on shuffle.

What are you favorite male and female duets?

Answer 1

The song was pretty good but the only thing that bothered me was their voices together. I love them both but the vocals are so different that when brought together in one song, to me, it doesn't sound too good. Weird. :/

Answer 2

I agree with Emily, and I would just say it's like they decided to do something "Josh Groban/Charlotte Church" style. Too proper of a song, and Thom Yorke was at the bottom of his range, unlike him. It would have sounded better if the harmonies were closer. But I understand that it was for a movie. When I saw the video, it's weird, they have someone else acting out the male part (prob. the guy from the movie).

Edit: Male and Female duets? Lou Reed and Nico, The ppl from The Vaselines, and everything that Ryan Adams did with Emmylou Harris.
