How about this from Jools Holland's Hootenanny on New Year's Eve/Day? Oldcomer Sir Tom Jones duets with newcomer Celeste on a ska version of "Blue Moon".

My wife who was watching with me exclaimed, "He's flirting!" Perhaps he is -- and who can blame him? Roll Eyes

From Melbourne's Little Band scene, these are Ronnie & The Rhythm Boys taking "Hey Joe" to its logical conclusion by having different people doing the asking and answering, in this case (if my spies have got it right) Denise Rosenberg and Stuart Grant respectively:

This post reminded of Mandolin Orange's excellent cover of Boots of Spanish Leather:

This is fun joyful duet, about recent football stuff in England: https://youtu.be/RJqimlFcJsM

Bet British people chant it to cheer at favorite respective teams.

Lime is food? Yep.

Mandarin and Clementine went to meet the entire citrus gang, nobody ate people.

Thanks for sharing! I hope this joyful anthem helps England fans come to terms with losing to Italy in the European Championship final...

Here's a duet I heard for the first time today, between Alex Ebert and Jade Castrinos of L.A. band Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros:

To reactivate this heart-warming topic after far too long, how about this charming duet between Viagra Boys lead singer Sebastian Murphy and Amy Taylor of Amyl and the Sniffers?

This isn't touted as a duet but a duet it most certainly is. Margie Hendrix of the Raelettes gives Ray a hard time in the song, although the roles seemed to have been reversed in real life:
