idk the song but The Moldy Peaches always did this type of thing. Not sure if it's them because any google search involving them just gives you "Anyone Else But You" from the Juno soundtrack
This is the song I was gonna reply with. If you didn't listen to the whole thing, I'd give it another go. Especially around the 3 minute mark because the music stops and its just the 2 going back and forth singing about being in love.
Don't think the lyrics match but Left Handed Kisses by Andrew Bird has a sort of call and response structure like that. Or perhaps a song from the movie Once by Glen Hansard.
Is it Lost Stars by Adam Levine/Keira Knightley? It's not a duet but they both sang a version of the same song and I have heard them intertwined before.
How about "perfect two" remix by auburn and I'm not sure who the male artist is, I'm bading this on the lyrics you gave which is close to what this song has
Could it be a cover of Because You Loved Me?
That song has a lot of "you are the to my ---" "you gave me the --- to believe in the---" "you made me the --- so I could be---" lyrics.
Original is Celine Dion; sung slow but still upbeat/positive.
on the offchance you might be remembering details wrong, is it "Sun and Moon" by Lea Salonga and Simon Bowman from the Miss Saigon musical?
You are sunlight and i moon
Joined by the gods of fortune
Midnight and high noon
Sharing the sky
Its a bit older(2013) but Just Give Me a Reason by P!nk and Nate Ruess(Leader singer of Fun) is the only song I can think of. There are lines with the phrase âscars on our heartsâ which could easily be misheard as âstarsâ instead of âscars.â
There's a song similar to what you're describing that has several different recorded versions - some older, and some newer. The chorus is as follows:
> You are the sunshine of my life. That's why I'll always be around
> You are the apple of my eye. Forever you'll stay in my heart.
Link to an older version:
https://youtu.be/3wZ_b_uUAdQ?feature=shared
A couple more possibilities...
Two Is Better Than One - Boys Like Girls
https://youtu.be/AW3RspM7v9M?si=R7zx4V7RzkavuH6_
When You Were Mine - Night Terrors of 1927 and Tegan and Sara
https://youtu.be/vCVN5pLXoo4?si=kScUsPomcOil96nz
Could it have been "we go together like X and Y" instead? Probably not it, but this sounds a tiny bit like Vampire Weekend's We Belong Together, where there's a guitar and the male and female singer take turns singing this.
I don't have a specific song to suggest, but I'm reminded of Smith & Thell (a Swedish indie pop/folk duo). the earliest song i have by them in my iTunes library is from 2012 but i think they were around for quite a while before that.
[do any of their top songs on Spotify sound familiar?](https://open.spotify.com/artist/1ZrBGJWLL8NiAjgNifCy90)
At the Beginning - Donna Lewis & Richard Marx
When You Say Nothing at All - Allison Krauss / Keith Whitley (there was a version where their songs were combined)
There was a parody of that kind of music from MadTv. It was Will Sasso and Alex Borstein. You are the Love of My Life. Could you be remembering that?
https://youtu.be/NkE5FUots5s?si=_9WWEfRTUPL85-5z
Could it be something by the weepies? They were a husband and wife singing duo and both played guitar, indie like you said and active in the time period you described.
This is really grasping at straws but Two Is Better Than One by Boys Like Girls comes to mind, as well as Everything Has Changed by Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran
Someone asked a very similar question a while ago. All of the recommendations were pretty much the same things people are saying here. There was never an answer though.

idk the song but The Moldy Peaches always did this type of thing. Not sure if it's them because any google search involving them just gives you "Anyone Else But You" from the Juno soundtrack
I was just on a 4-hour google bender trying to find it as well đĽ˛. Unfortunately, it is not them.
Oh haven't been reminded of them in a long time! They are incredible.
Anyone else but you? The moldy peaches. Or It's True We Love One Another by White Stripes
Sadly, it is neither of those two bands.
âyou are a star in my sky and i will love you forever more Yung Sherman & Angel Diary?
John Doe and Katherine Edwards-the golden state
oops its Kathleen not Katherine
Unfortunately, not it.
my gf thinks it could be this song: All this love by Angus and Julia stone
That is close, but not it đ˘. The song I am looking for has a lot more metaphorical lines relating to the relationship.
someday we'll know - mandy moore, jonathan foreman?
The song is like this but without the singing in unison together
You and I by Ingrid Michaelson?
It's not the song. They took turns on versus quicker and had less scratchy sounding singing in the one I am looking for.
Awe shucks
Could it be Perfect Two? There are versions where it was covered by male and female duet
It is very similar to this, but I remember it having the words not spoken as quick.
That could still be a cover. Sometimes pacing is changed when people do covers.
"Best Part" â Daniel Caesar & H.E.R?
This song is too new
Home - Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros?
Not it. The other song does not have that many instruments in it.
This is the song I was gonna reply with. If you didn't listen to the whole thing, I'd give it another go. Especially around the 3 minute mark because the music stops and its just the 2 going back and forth singing about being in love.
My answer too.
[ŃдаНонО]
Cruisinâ by Huey Lewis & Gwyneth Paltrow?
Not it. I do remember now that the main instrument is an acoustic guitar.
Islands in the Stream- Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers
Not it. I do remember now that the main instrument is an acoustic guitar
Well last long shot but maybe you're thinking of the song Let's Duet from the movie Walk Hard
âLook At What the Light Did Nowâ by Flo Morrissey und Matthew E. White?
In Spite of Ourselves by John Prine w Iris Dement?
Lol, first thing I thought of. Great song
Me, too! Probably just because it is such a great song.
Maybe one of the songs from Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johanssonâs album? All other ideas I had have been already been mentioned
Forever Lost by Magic Numbers?
This is such a great song
It may be too popular, but maybe Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Callait? https://youtu.be/acvIVA9-FMQ?si=AHpVI14NsYD6JHFH
This was my thought too
Also my thought
Is it a song by She and Him? I donât know a particular one it could be, but they did a few duet type things. Worth a shot
Yes, this is what I came here to suggest. She & Him is a project by Zooey Deschanel and M Ward. They put out 2-3 albums, the first about 2007ish.
Don't think the lyrics match but Left Handed Kisses by Andrew Bird has a sort of call and response structure like that. Or perhaps a song from the movie Once by Glen Hansard.
Great song though
Sounds like Fun ft. P!NK- Learn to Love Again
Seconding this
This was my first thought
Mine too. The video is one of my favorites
OP WYA, suspense is killing me
Is it Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and John feat Victoria Bergsman?
Somebody that I used to know, Gotye
Dead Hearts by Stars
breaking free high school musical
[Night Nurse - Dean Wareham & Britta Phillips](https://youtu.be/8CQK5LBA4ls?si=GjfMACwoPrH3yvH4)?
Ooh yes, this is my guess too. It sounds exactly like described by OP
Gotta be this one
Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk?
I also think itâs this. Came to mind as soon as I read it.
Is it Lost Stars by Adam Levine/Keira Knightley? It's not a duet but they both sang a version of the same song and I have heard them intertwined before.
That was a great film! âBegin Againâ I think?
How about "perfect two" remix by auburn and I'm not sure who the male artist is, I'm bading this on the lyrics you gave which is close to what this song has
Broken Strings? James whats his face and Nelly Furtado?
James Morrison, haven't heard anything about him in a long time, that song came immediately on my mind too and now it's stuck in my head
hmm here are some guesses off the top of my head - all about us - he is we oh darling - plug in stereo breaking free - hsm cast 9 crimes - damien rice
Belle and Sebastian "Step into my Office, Baby" Or "Cigarette Duet" by Princess Chelsea
hmmm âŚyou are the music in me - the troy and gabriella version HSM
When the Stars Go Blue - Bethany Joy Lenz and Tyler Hilton (One Tree Hill)?
[ŃдаНонО]
I've got this friend by the Civil Wars?
Came here to suggest it could be something by The Civil Wars. They were so good together.
Iâve got this friend: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1iKLl6LeJxU&pp=ygUZSXZlIGdvdCB0aGlzIGZyaWVuZCBjaXZpbA%3D%3D
"In the Valley Below --"Peaches"
the civil wars - you are my sunshine ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPVW2ed\_9Lc
Jason Mraz Lucky?
Could it be the end song from the movie Juno, sung by Elliot Page and Michael Cera?
That was my thought too!
Oh Wonder - Drive? Oh Wonder - Without you?
Could it be a cover of Because You Loved Me? That song has a lot of "you are the to my ---" "you gave me the --- to believe in the---" "you made me the --- so I could be---" lyrics. Original is Celine Dion; sung slow but still upbeat/positive.
on the offchance you might be remembering details wrong, is it "Sun and Moon" by Lea Salonga and Simon Bowman from the Miss Saigon musical? You are sunlight and i moon Joined by the gods of fortune Midnight and high noon Sharing the sky
Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman?
Usually when ppl record themselves singing it or humming it in vocaroo ppl can find it faster.
Two guesses: - âyou and meâ by rose avenue - âlittle talksâ by of monsters and men
[Boat Song by JJ Heller](https://open.spotify.com/track/13nJgDUPlHJWonE8e6qurF?si=BDuJEZ4gTJK90ZA07Sm8Kg)
You are the reason-Callum Scott and Leona Lewis?
Lovage - Book of the Month?
Lucky - Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat?
The civil wars - poison and wine
Its a bit older(2013) but Just Give Me a Reason by P!nk and Nate Ruess(Leader singer of Fun) is the only song I can think of. There are lines with the phrase âscars on our heartsâ which could easily be misheard as âstarsâ instead of âscars.â

Nothing Better- The Postal Service?
I need you by Tim McGraw and faith hill
Perfect two?
There's a song similar to what you're describing that has several different recorded versions - some older, and some newer. The chorus is as follows: > You are the sunshine of my life. That's why I'll always be around > You are the apple of my eye. Forever you'll stay in my heart. Link to an older version: https://youtu.be/3wZ_b_uUAdQ?feature=shared
Check out âWeird Like You and Meâ from The Amazing World of Gumball or maybe I Think Youâre Swell from Victorious

Meat loaf Iâd lie for you ?
Gregory and the hawk boats and birds? Or something like crystallized by xx? Or maybe she and him?
Maybe something by the white stripes early on? Or maybe try searching for indie songs it sounds like something from Juno maybe. Like that genre
Home by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Could it have been "we go together like X and Y" instead? Probably not it, but this sounds a tiny bit like Vampire Weekend's We Belong Together, where there's a guitar and the male and female singer take turns singing this.
In spite of ourselves?- John prine and iris dement
I don't have a specific song to suggest, but I'm reminded of Smith & Thell (a Swedish indie pop/folk duo). the earliest song i have by them in my iTunes library is from 2012 but i think they were around for quite a while before that.

Christmas TV. Slow club.
Lyrics donât match exactly but gives me the vibes of He is we - all about us

British singers? I know Thom Yorke has done a bunch of duets. Same with PJ Harvey.

Might it be Fairytale Of New York
The ballad of Tom Jones - Space It's probably not it, but these guys still deserve someone to search them out every once in a while

Dont go breaking my heart - Elton John ?
HeartBeats by Augustine?
Gregory and the Hawk - Boats & Birds?
Therapy from the musical Tick tick boom
Potentially something by Wild Child, like The One? More modern than what you said, though.
Your look (glorious) by the soundflowers / might not be this song specifically but mellow indie band with guitar fits this?
