I’m actually surprised that Leather and Lace has not dominated the votes. “Friend” was always an odd choice of a song to me that Stevie sang. Kenny Loggins, Melissa Manchester – eh, not quite Stevie … I do like the song – it just seems more fitting for somebody like Olivia Newton-John.

Gold, Midnight Wind, SDMHA, and Twisted are in my top 4 of Stevie duets, each one has something special about it, that just makes me love it.
I love all of these, esp. Midnight Wind.

Does Tunnel of Love count?

No, songs like 'Gold' & 'Magnet & Steel' and others alot of you are voting for are back ground harmonies. The 4 I picked are duets.

Frozen Love (Lindsey & Stevie)
Whenever I Call You Friend (Kenny Loggins w/ Stevie Nicks)
Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around (w/ Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers)
Leather & Lace (w/ Don Henley)
I Will Run To You (w/ Tom Petty)
I Pretend (w/ Sandy Stewart)
Needles & Pins (Live) (w/ Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers)
Two Kinds Of Love (w/ Bruce Hornsby)
Love Is Dangerous (Stevie and Rick) (FM)
Desiree (w/ Rick Vito)
Twisted (w/ Lindsey)
Too Far From Texas (w/ Natalie Maines)
Circle Dance (w/ Vanessa Carlton)

Note: I did not include "Nightbird" becuase to me, that is more of a "featuring Sandy Stewart", not a proper duet.
Desiree would have gotten my vote. Her vocals are rocking on it!

Gold is one of my favorite songs, if you can call it a duet.

If "Midnight Wind" had been on here, it would have made my decision a much tougher one. I LOVE that song. It grabbed me the first time I heard it.

Actually, I swear to God that song helped me salvage a decent grade in a class I was failing at university. The day I was supposed to do a final exam for this class I was playing that song on repeat and was getting in a relaxed frame of mind as I was getting ready to sit for the exam. Even though I needed an "A" on the final to get a "C" for the class, I went in relaxed with Stevie's wailing playing in my brain.

Lo and behold, I read the exam questions and found one I could answer right off the bat. Since it was an English exam and I needed to write two essay questions, I picked the second one and began writing that since it was a question I felt most confident answering. Then I went back to the first part and found one I was reasonably confident in and began writing my answer to that.

A few days later, I checked my grade online and discovered I had a "C" in that course, which meant I had gotten an "A" on the final. It's still the biggest miracle I've ever pulled off academically in an academic career full of miracles.

I totally agree with those two and wouldn't vote for anything else. Also, New York Minute with Don Henley needs to be included.

Thumbs up

I had to vote "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around". And I probably hear it the most on the radio.

And what about "Smiling Islands" by Robbie Patton? It's not a good song, but I love, love, love Stevie's vocal on it. And it's actually a duet vs. Stevie singing backup harmony.

^^Ooh, forgot about Stevie's gorgeous, fluttery, broken and choke-ya-up vocal on 'Smiling Islands'. Really beautiful, for me, it's similar but better to her vocal on the title song of 'Rock A Little'-- the voice on 'Smiling Islands' sounds so battered, but so perfect.

You guys can vote for whatever you love!! I think I picked those duets because they were hits! I noticed I picked 'Two Kinds of Love' and that wasn't a hit! (Blonde Moment) LOL There is alot of great songs to pick from so whatever you love the most. I'm all about love!!

From the list above..I chose Whenever I call You Friend... Though I guess I have to say I really like Needles and Pins and Insider... Does it count when she sings with Sandy? I love Nightbird and they sing the chorus together Can't wait to hear the songs on the new album...I think her and Dave are going to make a great duo!

I couldn't agree with you more.... I've always thought she had a great vocal on this track! I actually bought the album to get this song some time ago... and it's actually a really nice album all around.

I also like Rick Vito's voice a lot, but when that second verse kicks in, it always sends a little chill up my spine when I hear "Silhouette against a faded sky..."

I think I have to go listen to that one now!
