    I hope Queen - Under Pressure wins as would have been my pick had I been fast enough but I love this track too

    Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder together for Hunger Strike.

    I know they were formed a "band" to release a couple of tracks but it was essentially a duet between them. I don't mind if it's disqualified as they formed a band. Leave it up to ye

    Congrats Liz and great theme this week. I had load of options, but going with this one as we don't seem to hear it much and its a cracking tune.

    Patty Smyth ft. Don Henley - Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough

    I haven't heard this song in general in many years. Then the original version of the song came up at the season 3 finale of Dark and it also reminded me this duet - both versions are now on heavy rotation on my playlist.

    Not my type of music generally at all but I do like that track

    Reminds me a bit of Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé singing Barcelona (would have been my intro to anything operatic)

    Might a daily Walrus be worth trying out?

    We seem to have a cohort who vote in a couple of days so could well be an option to run them quicker. Might need a 48 hour turnaround though.

    We'd probably run out of categories pretty quickly if we had a daily one. Or at least categories that enough people would want to enter to make it worthwhile.

    Maybe, maybe not.

    A week seems like a long time to me.

    But it's no big deal.

    Thanks a lot lassykk.

    I was meant to put the / in & didn't realise I hadn't. Does YouTube need to be wrote in caps aswel or does that matter? I wrote it in lowercase

    Don't think it needs to be uppercase but I actually never checked!

    Was a close one this week, but with 12 thanks, the winner of the Duets is...

    Queen & David Bowie - Under Pressure

    Which means, you're up to pick the next category Zaph

    Thanks everyone, that was a tight one as there were a lot of great songs there. OK, so despite the restrictions there's still plenty of scope in this week's category - any song by an act NOT from Ireland, the UK or the USA.

    Not sure if I can enter again this week, if I can, here's my entry, and if not here's a bunch of Canadians to entertain you.

    Alanis Morissette - Hand in my Pocket

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUjIY_XxF1g


    EDIT: Actually Google tells me she acquired dual American citizenship in 2005, but that was years after this song and she's still a Canadian citizen so does this still count? I can pick something else if needed, I just had this song stuck in my head at the time of writing!

    I always consider her Canadian, and as you say she was only Canadian when this was released, so that's good enough I reckon.
