10 Worst Duets Ever: No. 9
- Posted by Spinner
'Dancing in the Street' --Mick Jagger and David Bowie (1985)
Jagger and Bowie recorded this Martha and the Vandellas cover (and shot the entire video) in less than one day. It shows. Hamming it up in the most hideous '80s fashions imaginable, two of the coolest rockers ever managed to murder both a great song and their reputations. The single's proceeds going to charity may be the only thing keeping everyone involved out of jail.

I did not find it that bad, but you cannot compare it to Martha so charity is a good excuse.

Duet is great.
I personally liked the remake they did ...."Dancing in the weeds"....you guys should google it if you don't know it!
