Western duet songs: Top 10 male-female duets from around the world (1–10)
SeñoritaShawn Mendes & Camila Cabello
With its Latin-inspired style and the duo’s sensual vocals, “Señorita” is a track released in 2019 by Canadian singer-songwriter Shawn Mendes and Cuban singer Camila Cabello.
The song, which portrays a heart tossed about by love, resonated with many listeners and consequently achieved the feat of reaching No.
1 on the Billboard charts.
It’s a piece where Mendes’s cool vocals intertwine with Cabello’s poignant, sultry voice.
Baby It’s Cold Outside duet with Michael BubleNEW!Idina Menzel
It’s a male–female call-and-response style duet by Idina Menzel and Michael Bublé.
They’re constantly conversing, and it feels like they really click in the chorus.
Since it’s like they’re taking turns talking, it gives off a musical theater vibe.
The song is under three minutes, so if you have someone to sing with, it’s easy to invite them! Because there’s more spoken-style delivery than pure singing, if you perform it as if you’re just talking normally, it can strain your throat.
If you project as though you’re speaking to someone a bit farther away, your vocal folds will vibrate better and it’ll be easier to produce sound.
Imagine calling out to a store clerk who’s a little far away—like “Excuse me!” or “Could you help me, please?” It’s a great pick when you want to create a mature, moody atmosphere.
Beauty and the BeastAriana Grande & John Legend
“Beauty and the Beast,” featuring two artists with overwhelming vocal prowess.
It’s sung by the world-renowned songstress Ariana Grande and John Legend, who appeared as an actor in the film La La Land.
This track was chosen as the theme song for the live-action film Beauty and the Beast released in 2017.
John Legend’s steady, grounded vocals pair beautifully with Ariana Grande’s shimmering high notes.
Their overlapping voices perfectly capture the song’s romantic atmosphere.
ShallowLady Gaga, Bradley Cooper
Here’s the song that Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper sang in the 2018 film “A Star Is Born.” The lyrics convey that we’re no longer in a shallow relationship.
It starts with a slightly country feel, and the chorus sung by Gaga is striking, but the female part seems quite challenging.
There aren’t many harmony sections, so give it a try.
Good TimeOwl City & Carly Rae Jepsen
Good Time is a collaboration between Canadian singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen and American musician Owl City.
Released as a single in 2012, it reached No.
8 on the US charts and No.
5 on the UK charts.
It also peaked at No.
2 on Japan’s Billboard chart, so many of you may have heard it.
With its synth-pop foundation and catchy sound, it’s the kind of song that makes you feel happy just by listening.
A Whole New WorldMena Massoud, Naomi Scott
When it comes to iconic Disney duets, “A Whole New World” immediately comes to mind.
The song was created as the theme for the 1992 film Aladdin, and after the movie’s release it was recorded and released as a single by Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle.
It reached No.
1 on the U.
S.
charts and won Best Original Song at the 65th Academy Awards.
In 2019, Aladdin was adapted into a live-action film and the song was re-recorded, performed by Mena Massoud and Naomi Scott.
I think it’s one of the most famous duet songs in the world, so definitely give it a try!
DilemmaNelly ft. Kelly Rowland
“Dilemma,” a track by American rapper Nelly featuring Kelly Rowland, formerly of Destiny’s Child, became a massive hit upon its 2002 release, spending 10 consecutive weeks at No.
