l_1d59a3dd9ef7fe62f8d3b0a3d341cb91.jpgThis might be the coolest duet of my lifetime. Or at least of recent memory. Jack White and Alicia Keys are teaming up for the theme song to the upcoming James Bond flick Quantum of Solace, reports Billboard.com. White wrote, produced and will play drums on the song (which kinda makes you wonder how much drumming Meg actually does in the studio, right?). The tune is titled “Another way to Die.” The film opens November 7. The soundtrack drops Oct. 28. In keeping with my optimistic belief that the the White/Keys joint will totally rock here’s a tally of my favorite duets.

Top 10: Duets

1. “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough,” Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell

2. “Summertime,” Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong

3. “Pancho and Lefty,” Willie Nelson & Merle Haggard

4. “Under Pressure,” Queen and David Bowie

5. “Fairytale of New York,” Shane Magowan (The Pogues) with Kirsty MaColl

6. “Hunger Strike,”  Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell (Temple of the Dog)

7. “Jackson,” Johnny Cash and June Carter

8. “Love Hurts,” Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris

9. “2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted,” 2Pac & Snoop Dogg

10. “Two Story House,” George Jones and Tammy Wynette
