Unusual collaberations that surprise you

Music forum. But anyway:

Rivers Cuomo (Weezer) + Rainn Wilson (The U.S. Office)

(What If God Was) "One Of Us"

(Skip to 4:30ish for song)

Brian May and Freddie Mercury. Apparently Brian May was a monstrous homophobe who looked down on Mercury as, and I quote, "a sexually confused colonist". Mercury took great offence to this and tried to frame May on a child pornography rap. Unfortunately - for Mercury - Pete Townsend was in town that week and, after some confusion, he accidentally took the heat.

In spite of all that, "Bicycle Race" went on to be a top 11 hit for them.
