Poll question: Favorite musical couples
Yeah, I know some of these are divorced, some long ago. And?

19. I actually forgot about them
but have a shrewd notion that, like Steve and Eydie, they wouldn't have garnered too many votes had I not.

4. Johnny & June, of course, but what about Richard & Linda Thompson?
They did several excellent albums as a couple. But the ugly divorce gave Richard even more excellent material. For example, "Did She Jump or Was She Pushed" on Shoot Out The Lights.

9. Ray Charles and Betty Carter
Come to think of it, I don't really know if they were a "couple" outside of the studio. But the one recording they made together is magic.

23. I had to vote
for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill so they wouldn't feel lonely. Not to mention they are the best looking couple on the list.
