Anyone got a list of great songwriters who had that certain chemistry together, that indefinable something that made for great songs and collaborations?For instance.....Burt Bacharach and Hal David.

Even co-writers who could spell, chemistRy?

elton john & bernie taupin.... lennon mccartney..... ashford & simpson.... gamble & huff page & plant Big & Rich Brooks & Dunn

Ya, very, very good, AJ. Big & Rich are really crankin' them out now.

Simon/Garfunkel, Brewer/Shipley (nope, they didn't make but one tune top 10, I jes really liked them), Deborah Harry and Chris Stein, Hall and Oates, and absolutely, Glen Tillbrook and Chris Difford from Squeeze (I so wanna remake "Tempted" I can't stand it).And of course, we have those in the early 1900s too. But let's not date ourselves.

Holland-Dozier-Holland (and Robinson), Andersson & Ulvaeus, Jagger & Richards, Cobain-Grohl-Novoselic, Desmond Child & almost anyone, Kara DioGuardi & almost anyone

Good list, Squiddy. Hey, who were the songwriters that wrote a lot of Motown hits together, Lieber and Stoller (dang, I can't spell)....that's another one. I love Hall and Oates. My husband used to sing "Your Kiss" in a dirty way though, we won't say how though, hehe.

Ooh, I forgot Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly:"Like A Virgin" (Madonna), "True Colors" (Cyndi Lauper), "So Emotional" (Whitney Houston), "Eternal Flame" (The Bangles)

The only ones I can think of at the moment are Isaac Hayes and David Porter.Sure, I'm game to hear how your husband sings "Your Kiss"!! We're all here to learn, right?
