Duet

The first duet I remember hearing? Well, that'd be Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, crooning together on Islands in the Stream: a 1983 hit that was actually written - you learn something all the time on this blog, folks, all the time - by the Bee Gees.

More recently, though, it's been Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson in the background, as their current duet wafts rather inappropriately through the Hopkins weightroom: we struggle to look tough in our tank tops while Clarkson sighs that she wants to make love last.

In any event, though, I thought I'd try to form a modest duet of my own last night. And Cleo rose to the occasion! Sure, we're a little (or a lot) pitchy, as they always say on American Idol, and, sure, Cleo's phrasing is not quite as smooth as Sinatra's. But we had fun nonetheless:
