DYNAMICALLY DYNAMIC DUETS

I don't think you understand how long I've been waiting to write this post. As a vocalist, naturally, I'm obsessed with singing. Duets are just the icing on that cake.

Wallflower/ Woman Fierce?
We've all seen the Glee Episode "Dynamic Duets" (4x7), and it has inspired me to write a post about the greatest duets of all time. Granted, this episode premiered forever ago, but I wanted to wait until my blog had a decent amount of posts before I posted this goldmine. If you haven't seen the episode...well, go watch it. Look at the things you're missing out on!

How can you not be in love with this face?
Although, this post has nothing to do with the actual episode, it is the source of inspiration for the title! Yes, I'm aware that "dynamically dynamic duets" is NOT the name of the episode. (I'm  avoiding copyright infringement). So without further adieu:

15 Dynamically Dynamic Duets

  1. Come What May-  Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor from Moulin Roug
  2.  Broken- Seether feat. Amy Lee
  3.  For Good- Kristen Chenoweth and Idina Menzell, the Original Broadway Cast of WICKED: the Musical.
  4. Endless Love- Diana Ross feat. Lionel Richie
  5. I Just Can't Stop Loving You- Michael Jackson feat. Siedah Garrett
  6. Islands in the Stream- Kenny Rogers feat. Dolly Parton
  7. No Air- Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown
  8. Don't Go Breaking My Heart- Elton John feat. Kiki Dee
  9. My Boo- Usher feat. Alecia Keys 
  10. You're the One that I Want-  John Travolta and Olivia- Newton John from Grease
  11. (I've Had) The Time of My Life-  Jennifer Warnes and Bill Medley Dirty Dancing
  12.  Stereo Hearts- Gym Class Heroes feat. Adam Levigne
  13.  Baby, it's Cold Outside- Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong
  14.  Telephone- Beyonce feat. Lady Gaga
  15.  Whiskey Lullaby- Brad Paisley feat. Allison Krauss*
 Ironically, and not at all planned, most of these were performed on Glee at somepoint! Ryan Murphey is genius. However, what's not included on this list: The Lonely Island. Every duet is just amazing, especially those with Justin Timberlake. I mean, who can't love this?

 


3-Way (The Golden Rule)
All of these duets are basically guaranteed to make you wish your best friend could sing. He probably can, and you guys will sound lovely.

Pieces 2 Puzzle Presents...


Readers,


After my post hiatus, Pieces 2 Puzzle is back with exciting news: There will be a restructure. There will be one post a week, perhaps more if time permits. They will alternate on different days of the week each with a different theme. 

Munchy Mondays: Get ready for some healthy food recipes (and some not so healthy ones).
Trendy Tuesdays: Fashion on fashion on fashion. 
Wednesdays: Sorry, there's not a clever name for this one, but posts on Wednesday will be free giveaway posts! Enter for a chance to win something special.
Theatrical Thursday: Anything artsy is fair game: Movie/CD reviews, Broadway news, etc.
Fitness Friday: I..I..I work out. I think that about covers it. 

As for the weekends, for now, they will remain miscellaneous and spontaneous. They'll be exciting.

I'm beyond excited for what this will bring to the blog! This will start within the next two weeks. (Finals, ya'll...) If you have any ideas at all, do not hesitate to comment below. What do YOU want to see on this blog?






xoxo,
