I was talking to J\u00f6rn, Rufus Wainwright\u2019s husband, on the phone. I think we were recommending novels to each other, and for some reason, I said, hey, maybe Rufus and I should do something, and quickly scribbled out 10 songs off the top of my head. So J\u00f6rn asked Rufus, who was up for it, and that\u2019s how it started. A spontaneous and what I thought would be a fun thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More from Spin:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spin.com\/2025\/08\/radiohead-salute-hail-to-the-thief-with-live-collection\/\">Radiohead Salutes \u2018Hail To The Thief\u2019 With Live Collection<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spin.com\/2025\/08\/elbow-keeps-going-til-the-wheels-fall-off\/\">Elbow Keeps Going \u2018Til the Wheels Fall Off<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spin.com\/2025\/08\/daron-malakian-is-finally-free\/\">\u00a0Daron Malakian: \u2018I\u2019m Blessed to Have Both Scars and System\u2019<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Also featured on <em>Duets Special<\/em> are Lucinda Williams, Julian Lennon, Blondie\u2019s Debbie Harry, Low\u2019s Alan Sparhawk and the Black Keys\u2019 Dan Auerbach, who shares an Akron, Oh., hometown with Hynde.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"tpdFIY0xYmo\" style=\"bottom: 0; height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; width: 100%; max-width:100%;\"><\/lite-youtube>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-here-is-the-track-list-for-duets-special\">Here is the track list for <em>Duets Special<\/em>:<\/h2>\n<p>Me &amp; Mrs Jones (feat. k.d. lang)<br \/>Can\u2019t Help Falling In Love (feat.
