Self (somewhat) ^
Posted on 06/24/2008 7:19:30 PM PDT by SilvieWaldorfMD
The "Musicians Who Turn 50", "Musicians Who Turn 60", "Favorite Drummer" and "Favorite Guitarist" were such hit threads on FR, I've decided to do this one.
Who is your favorite SONGWRITING DUO?
We all know that Lennon-McCartney were amazing together and possibly the best songwriting duo ever. They might be mentioned several times on this thread. If you choose John & Paul, be specific about which song and lyric(s).

Oh yeah, I vote for Rodgers and Hammerstein too. And Rodgers and Hart.
And Lerner and Lowe.
And Wright and Forrester.
I'm a total Broadway geek. ;-)

Another favorite duo of mine is Harry Warren and Al Dubin, who wrote tunes for the movie musicals Gold Diggers of 1933, 42nd Street, and Gold Diggers of 1935.

Doesn’t count, ‘cause Garfunkel didn’t write — the songs were Paul’s.

Bernie Taupin and Elton John shared some magic as well. I thought of them too, and think the magic is heavily due to Bernie.

With me it’s all er nuthin’.
Is it all er nuthin’ with you?
It cain’t be “in between”
It cain’t be “now and then”
No half and half romance will do!
I’m a one woman man,
Home lovin’ type,
All complete with slippers and pipe.
Take me like I am, er leave me be!
If you cain’t give me all, give me nuthin’
And nuthin’s whut you’ll git from me!
ANNIE
Not even sump’n?
WILL
Nuthin’s whut you’ll git from me!

Hurray! Another Theater Geek joins in!
Don’t be jealous, but I’m going to “American Players Theater” in August. My best gal-pal buys us tickets for my Birthday each year.
We’re having a hard time deciding this season, though! Too many fun choices.
