10 Best Duets Ever: No. 9

'This Mess We're In'
--Thom Yorke and PJ Harvey (2000)

Every rock snob's favorite duet of the past decade is the centerpiece of Harvey's Mercury Prize–winning 'Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea.' This pairing has an air of inevitability to it, from Harvey's trademark guitar strum and the Radiohead frontman's pitch-perfect falsetto to the song's tale of doomed love. It's what you'd expect: profoundly gloomy and impossibly beautiful.

This that you people are telling us means that you just conjure this things when you are having your dreams at work because where in the world did this so called artist come from. I love music but this Thom Yorke and PJ Harvey thing for me don't have any thing to do with music. You just pasted them their.

It's shoking to me how folks in the comments below are shamelessly addmitting their musical ignorance. If you don't know who Thom Yorke and Polly Harvey are you shouldn't be talking about music, really.

Why do you people insist on commenting if you have no idea who the people are?
