Someone mentioned this video in one of the discussion threads, and it may be familiar to those that saw it almost thirty years ago. It's actually extra special, because it was filmed just months before Bing's death.

Without further ado, Bing Crosby and David Bowie sing "Little Drummer Boy".

I read somewhere or saw it that Bowie wanted to sing a different song than Bing because he wanted to show off his voice.  It worked well as a duet and came off very good.  BTW both have beatiful voices but Bing has the voice I want.
