To everybody in the world: What do you all think is the best musical collaboration of all time? This is open to all music of all genres from rap, R&B, blues, jazz, or disco. To me, collaborations are like kissing--it's much better when two people are involved. Sometimes, there have been some collaborations that feature more than two artists. Like, i was feeling real good when USA for Africa made "We are the World" in 1985. That song featured artists like Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Cyndi Lauper, Kenny Rogers, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Dionne Warwick, and the list goes on. I like when artists can put their egos to the side and come together for a cause like that. There's no talk about $ or how big your house or car is an how many girls you put in your last video. When two (or more) worlds come together for the sake of creating some timeless music, it makes the world a better place!!!

When I think of collaborations, don't include one shot deals like what you mentioned. Granted USA for Africa was a "feel good" thing during a time of crisis. I would classify writing teams that have lasted over periods of time.
The ones I would include would be:
Mick Jaggar/Keith Richards
Paul McCartney/John Lennon
Elton John/Bernie Taupin
Roger Waters/David Gilmour
All these pairs created great music that have lasted the test of time. All of them are known for butting heads with each other, but you can't argue the results.

I liked the crossroads performance on CMT when John Mayer and Brad Paisley collaborated.

The one that comes to mind for me is the tribute to George Harrison.You had Paul and Ringo,Georges' son along with Clapton, Stevie Ray and other greats performing his songs.
