There are just those country music duets you can never forget and will stand until the end of time.  You know like Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn, George Jones and Tammy Wynette, June and Johnny Cash and of course Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.

It is hard to believe that the song "Islands In The Stream" released in 1983 by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers is 32 years old.  And today 32 years ago, it was the number one song in the country.

Did you know that the song "Islands In the Stream" was written by Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb from the Bee Gees?  Yep I was shocked too!  The song was released on RCA records and quickly made it to number one.

Now the Kenny and Dolly duet is cemented in country music history as a classic that everyone knows the words too.  Here is the video of Dolly and Kenny performing the song live together.
