They just didn't get along
 
some may think that all singers have a mutual liking for one another but whoa not so fast,let's take a look at some who didn't...ethel waters vs billie holliday[these two great divas did not like each other at all and ms waters would criticize billie often]...james brown vs wilson pickett[the godfather and the soulshouter had a falling out over a woman and neither would back down]...eddie kendricks vs melvin franklin[these two temps were not pals off stage]...martha reeves vs berry gordy[he was her boss but she would tell him off just the same]paul mccartney vs john lennon[the beatles breakup wasn't about yoko but the fued between the two over songwriting credits among other things]...joe tex vs james brown[now joe liked a good laugh but he had to duck out the back door when he laughed at the godfather].

my favourite anecdote about singers who didn't get along is about these guys - Sam and Dave... this is by far their most famous track.



they broke up in the early 70s due to differing views and ambitions about their career, like so many other acts. they worked 'together' through studios a few times afterwards, but it wasn't until a particular bass player tricked them into being in the studio at the same time a few years later that they lived up to their heyday.

and the result:



aww yeah :afro:

I think its natural that singers clash, its human nature. especially when both have different views of the art

Its a good discussion topic, but I don't think anyone really believes great singers get along that well. There is usually a lot of jealosy.

The crowd loves our back singer zack. He takes the male leads, but our "lead singer" Samntha says "I don't know why they love him. He can't sing" Then why have him in the band? He can sing.
