Top-Charting Collaborations Between Legendary Musicians And New Artists

Special Report

September 28, 2023 10:10 am

Perhaps the most celebrated – and poignant – collaboration ever between a legacy performer and a newer musical star came to an end on Sept. 30, 2021, with the release of "Love for Sale," the final album by legendary vocalist Tony Bennett, and his second with chart-topping singer-songwriter Lady Gaga. At the time, she was 35; he had turned 95 two months before.

The unlikely duo made their recording debut with "Cheek to Cheek" in 2014, then toured off and on together for the next seven years, their final live appearance coming just a month before "Love for Sale." What made the collaboration poignant is that Bennett had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2016, but continued to record and perform as his memory deteriorated, and it was said that whatever his mental state at the time, when he was in front of a microphone, he came alive, remembering every word, every note.

Though both of the unlikely musical couple's albums reached the top 10 on the Billboard 200, they never charted a single on the publication's Hot 100. However, though the age differences are nowhere near as dramatic, there are numerous examples of newer, younger artists recording with performers who had their first Billboard chart hits decades ago – sometimes as far back as the 1960s. (These are the biggest comebacks in music history.)

To determine the most successful musical collaborations between newer artists and legacy acts, 24/7 Tempo reviewed chart performance from the Billboard Hot 100. Collaborations were ranked based on an inverse score wherein a week at No. 1 on the Hot 100 is worth 100 points, a week at No. 2 is worth 99 points, and so on, up to a week at No. 100 worth one point. Chart data is current through Sept. 9, 2023. (Billboard sources its data from Luminate, a company collecting data on music and other entertainment forms.)

Only songs whose artists first entered the Hot 100 at least 20 years apart were considered – and in some cases, the gap was much greater than that. Take, for example, the 2021 Elton John-Dua Lipa offering "Cold Heart (PNAU Remix)." Lipa's initial entry into the Hot 100 came with "New Rules" on Aug. 19, 2018. Elton John – who appears more than any other performer on this list – made the first of his 68 (to date) appearances on the chart with "Border Song" on Aug. 15, 1970. (Here's a catalog of Elton John's biggest hits, according to Billboard.)

Jungle Shares Remix Of Hit Track 'Back On 74'

British songwriting and production duo Jungle unveil the remix of their hit song "Back On 74" by London DJ and producer Joy Anonymous today. The original version of the track has exploded across platforms, with more than 22 million global streams, a massive TikTok trend with more than 184 million views and spots on several coveted playlists.

"Back On 74" is taken from Jungle's new album Volcano, out now to critical acclaim via Caiola Records / AWAL—get it here. Volcano, which NPR celebrates as "unstoppable" and a "timeless classic," features singles "Candle Flame" with rapper Erick the Architect, "Dominoes," "I've Been In Love" with Channel Tres, "Back On 74" and "You Ain't No Celebrity" with Roots Manuva.

The free-spirited energy that runs right through Volcano reflects how organically it came together. This time around the duo wanted to include a wider variety of voices within the album, leading to collaborations with Erick the Architect, Bas, Roots Manuva, Channel Tres, JNR Williams and more.

Jungle is also in the midst of an extensive world tour in support of Volcano, following a headline slot at London's All Points East Festival. Slated to perform for more than 190,000 people, the duo's lauded full-band live shows have graced some of their biggest venues to date, including Los Angeles' The Kia Forum and San Francisco's Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, with shows at New York's Forest Hills Stadium, D.C.'s The Anthem, Philadelphia's Franklin Music Hall, Chicago's Aragon Ballroom and more to come—see below for the full tour routing. Jungle was founded by J&T, who met at the age of 10 in West London's Shepherd's Bush. They began making music together at the beginning of 2013, choosing to put the aesthetic emphasis on the music's surrounding artwork/videos rather than on their own identities. Jungle's acclaimed 2014 self-titled debut album was a Mercury Prize nominee and is now Gold-certified while their lauded 2018 follow-up, For Ever, reached #10 on the UK Albums Chart. In addition, their 2021 album, Loving In Stereo, achieved their highest domestic chart position to date, debuting at #1 on Billboard's Current Electronic Albums chart while also peaking at #3 on Independent Albums, #4 on Current Rock Albums and #6 on Current Alternative Albums charts. Their three records have since amassed over a million equivalent album sales and a billion streams worldwide. They've performed on five continents, headlining venues both stateside and abroad while performing at major music festivals such as Glastonbury, Coachella, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. Last year, the duo embarked on a select run of European dates supporting Billie Eilish on her "Happier Than Ever" tour.

Blink-182 Releases Emotional Music Video For New Song 'ONE MORE TIME'

The band released two new songs Thursday.

September 21, 2023, 11:32 AM

Blink-182 has premiered two new songs off their upcoming comeback album, "ONE MORE TIME...."

In addition to the record's previously teased title track, the trio has also dropped the "ONE MORE TIME..." cut "MORE THAN YOU KNOW."

"ONE MORE TIME..." marks Blink's first album with Tom DeLonge, who'd been absent from the group from 2015 to 2022, in over 10 years.

That seems to be reflected in the lyrics of the emotional new song "ONE MORE TIME," which begins, "Strangers / From strangers into brothers / From brothers into strangers once again."

Meanwhile, the chorus of "ONE MORE TIME" goes, "Do I have to die to hear you miss me?" -- a possible reference to Mark Hoppus' 2021 cancer battle, which led to the reunion with DeLonge.

The lyric, "I miss you" is also repeated throughout, which, of course, is the name of another Blink-182 song.
