Best Country Love Duets: No. 2

'Islands in the Stream' - Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers (1983)

Lines We Love: "You do something to me that I can't explain/Hold me closer and I feel no pain"

A joyous celebration of "the real thing" (love, not Coca-Cola), two country/pop legends turned a tune written by the Bee Gees into a crossover smash. Reba McEntire and Barry Manilow also gave it a go together in 2008.

I agree whole-heartedly with Rebafan2009. This is one of the coolest songs ever. I love blasting this song in my truck with the windows down singing at the top of my lungs with my brothers.

This song is the GREATEST DUET in country music history! I LOVE this song! This song is amazing, its fun and it's catchy! Barry Manilow and Reba McEntire recorded this song recently, it's great and their arrangment is fun to sing 2! but NOBODY sings it like Kenny & Dolly!
