there have been some mighty fine duos in the 80's. What are your favorites?

This thread is a tribute to all of them and the music they've brought [:D][/quote]

Sorry, Unless I misunderstood the original question, it is quoted above... Naked Eyes were a duo at the time their fantastic debut album was released in 1983, and one of my favorites... did I miss something?

Although more of just the face of the band rather than a duo, I'd say Tears For Fears and OMD. [8D]

I think those would be Duets... two artists coming together for a song. I think that's a bit different from a duo, where there are 2 members in one band, no?
