Thinking about this one from another thread, and Rebecca Pidgeon's pairing together of "Auld Lang Syne" and Sam Cooke's "Bring It on Home To Me".

Search: Simon & Garfunkle "Scarborough Fair/Canticle"

Another one I really like is Christine Lavin's pairing of "All I Have to Do Is Dream" with "A Summer Song" ("Trees, swaying in the summer breeze..."). Works surprisingly well...

Will to Power "Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird"

Mr. Diamond (diamond), Monday, 9 June 2003 17:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Two best of all time:

Will to Power = Free Bird + Baby I Love Your Way
Mitch Ryder = Devil With a Blue Dress On + Good Golly Miss Molly

(Unless stuff like Boston's Foreplay/Long Time or Elton John's Love Lies Bleeding/Funeral For a Friend counts. It doesn't, right? I mean, I'm assuming you mean OTHER PEOPLE'S songs.)

Yeah, the Foreplay/Long Time stuff doesn't count...moreso simultaneous pairings of cover songs.

"Jenny Take A Ride!" ("CC Rider"+"Jenny Jenny")
is also pretty good.

More along the lines of medley like the Will to Power combo, but The Spinners' "Cupid/I've Loved You a Long Time" is also one of my favorites.

Who did a cover medley of Sunday Morning and Leaving on a Jet Plane?

Pet Shop Boys - destroy/ignore "Where the Streets Have No Name" and search where it turns into "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You"

Marisa Monte, on her A Great Noise does a medley of George Harrison's "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" and Lenny Kravitz's "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over".

Soft Cell, "Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go"

Rick Moranis as Mel Torme - Star Spangled Banner

Oh Say can you seebedeebadee
By the daw's early
Pardon me boys, is this the Chattanooga choochoo
I've got my fare, and some money to spare
Oh once I built a railroad, made it run
Kept it running on time, running on time
Once I built a railroad now it's gone
Brother can you spare a, brother can you spare a
Rockets Red Glare
The bombs burning in air
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still
Tall and Tan an young and lovely the girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she goes walking our flag was still there
Oh say does that Star Spangled Babadabanner yet wave
O'er the land of the Freeper, Creeper, where'd you get them peepers
Freepers creeper where'd you get that home of the
Most beautiful girl in the world
Takes my ties out she feeds me candy she drinks my brandy
In the home of the BRAAAAAAAAVE.
