One of the greatest duets of all time actually didn’t start out as one. The songwriting duo of Dennis Morgan and Simon Climie originally pitched it to Tina Turner, but Arista Records founder Clive Davis had the idea to get Aretha Franklin to record it as a duet with George Michael eventually becoming Aretha’s biggest hit on the Adult Contemporary chart spending 3 weeks at #2. From 1987, your Love Song of the Day is I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me).
