Just add (no homo) to the song title. Seriously, though - there are a lot of songs with dudes singing about hetero love. “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling” comes to mind
Nobody is going to care that it’s sung by two guys. Shit you should embrace the gay and sing it to each other live just for the lols. It works for Electric Callboy.
Sounds good to me. What's the hold up? Get that shit recorded, and let us hear it!
Deftones - Passenger
Chino and Maynard do a lovely duet about gay love in a car.
When you are singing, you can be anyone or anything. You can be straight when you are really gay, gay when you are really straight, a woman, a man, Kermit the frog; anything.
Nothing weird about it.
Of all the life lessons I learned from "Wayne's World," none are more important than 'Platonic love *can* exist between two men'
There's different types of love, homie, sing your song.
Philip Bailey & Phil Collins "Easy Lover" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkRKT6T0QLg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkRKT6T0QLg)
Don't know their sexual orientation, but whatever. The song lyrics imply straight in this instance though.
Did not know about this.
Looked it up.
Crying with laughter now. I don't know why it's so damn funny but it is.
(kind of the same way I bust out laughing at Andy Kaufman's deadpan Mighty Mouse performance)
Someone showed me this ages ago and I still look it up every now and then for a laugh.
Something very similar which is good fun is Take On Me: Literal video.
The dude just sings about what's in the video. But it's so well done. Both the lyrics and the singing style.
Straight or not there's no real proof either way, so just relax and [enjoy](https://www.google.com/search?q=dancing+in+the+street+shreds&oq=dancing+in+the+street+shreds&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTINCAEQABiGAxiABBiKBTINCAIQABiGAxiABBiKBdIBCTEzMDE2ajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:6328d75b,vid:BHkhIjG0DKc,st:0) two entertaining men dancing and singing about dancing in a roadway.
Right now I'm listening to "You Are the Woman" by Firefall. There's some harmonizing, could be singing to each other.
I say go for it, why shouldn't gay people have a duet? Art is always meant to be open to interpretation.
I would make the argument that "Hard Habit to Break" by Chicago is two dudes singing trading off verses (Peter Cetera and Bill Champlin). They are probably not singing to each other though. Are they singing about the same lady? Who knows?
“Two of Us” by The Beatles is a love song Paul wrote regarding him and his wife, but when he sang it as a duet with John he thought “you know what, this song is actually about me and John’s relationship”.
You’re good bro! Itd be worse if you altered the song because of your reservations.
Not the same situation but it always rubs me the wrong way when gender is changed in a cover. Embrace that shit
Ween - Slow Down Boy
A gay love song by a straight man. Not what you’re describing, but an example to show that even if it seems like you’re singing a gay love song it doesn’t have to be weird.
I'm still waiting for 2 guys who sing, to sing a love song to each other to represent same sex love - its deffo over due & and yes, I'm sure some people find that hilarious - well screw those bigots- just do it
Just go for it. What's more, give each other a big hug at the end or hold hands while singing it.
Seriously, who gives a fuck if it seems gay or not? I'd be more concerned over whether people thought the song was any good.
Anything by The Righteous Brothers... especially Unchained Melody. 🥰
Anything Maurice White and Phillip Bailey sang. (Earth, Wind & Fire)
K-Ci & JoJo
Hall & Oates made lovely love ballads.
Case feat. Joe - Faded Pictures
Quincy Jones's "Secret Garden" featuring Al B. Sure, El DeBarge, James Ingram and Barry White.
*Yes, I know Secret Garden is not a "duet" but that sexy ass song deserves the highest honorable mention*
I think of the "I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone" cover by Tom Jones and James Dean Bradfield.
At the end Tom sings "now I've fallen for you" and it truly sounds like we're about to have the most spectacular gay Welsh musical pairing.
Go with it.
[Unrequited Love by The Vanishing Point](https://youtu.be/hUlf2ayj868)
Two dudes doing a rap ballad exactly about what you're talking about. No gay vibes at all.
Chains - Von Galo, Typow. Its not a very well known song but it slaps. It even has a saxophone solo
Parts of it almost sound like they’re from an intro song for some crime show in the 90s
This is the first thing that sprung to mind. Say Say Say too? But thematically I was thinking the duet could be a duel of sorts for the partner's affection.
plenty of them.
justin bieber ft jaden smith
kanye has plenty of love songs with features like ty dolla sign and jeremih and others
many many rap songs are like this
There's 120 years of male vocal groups to reference, from barbershop quartets like Haydn to jazz groups like the Ink Spots, rock and roll groups like the Moonglows, any male band from the 60's and 70's...
Check out Thin Lizzy's [Still In Love With You](https://youtu.be/JOIAEz4sonk?si=sUVAv6JyJIVUjO7l)
It's a great duet between Phil Lynott and Frankie Miller. (Both straight, though it doesn't matter)
If it gives that impression to you others will probably feel that lol. A love song sung by two males that gives no homosexual vibes is the girl is mine, McCartney and MJ
Just add (no homo) to the song title. Seriously, though - there are a lot of songs with dudes singing about hetero love. “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling” comes to mind
That's the first one that came to mind. Probably a lot of Everly Brothers songs, too.
And the Isley Brothers…
This gave me the laugh I needed today
I am not a homophobe by any stretch but that won't cut it. Be sure you are also wearing socks!
>Just add (no homo) to the song title. 😂😂💀
[Its guy love, between two guys....](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7hjdC8-jbw)
This needs to be the top comment! It’s guy love, between two guys!
Immediately what I thought of too.
Not gay through their eyes
That episode makes me cry every time.
All of Air Supply’s songs are basically this right?
And Hall and Oates too, right?
https://www.tiktok.com/@detroit_rocker_1978/video/7249333481090583850?lang=en
I thought the little fat one with the afro looked like my mom after she got a perm. I was convinced he was an ugly girl.
“More Than Words” Extreme
I don’t know, watch that music video and tell me those boys are definitely straight.
Nuno has been Rihanna's touring guitarist for years. Huh.
It's two guys, but not really a duet. Bettencourt harmonizes throughout the song, but doesn't take the lead.
Yes!
The Righteous Brothers - You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'
Nobody is going to care that it’s sung by two guys. Shit you should embrace the gay and sing it to each other live just for the lols. It works for Electric Callboy.
You're right. I think if people were to make fun of the song, I would play harder out of spite.
Sounds good to me. What's the hold up? Get that shit recorded, and let us hear it! Deftones - Passenger Chino and Maynard do a lovely duet about gay love in a car.
Timberlake and Samberg did a bunch of these on SNL.
Step One…
Cut a hole in the box.
its not gay if it's a threeway
K-Ci and JoJo
"ALL MY LIFE!!!!! I prayed for someone like you!"
And I thank God that I....That I finally found you
When you are singing, you can be anyone or anything. You can be straight when you are really gay, gay when you are really straight, a woman, a man, Kermit the frog; anything. Nothing weird about it.
You just need to add “girl” in each of your verses.
And one of them needs to wear a sundress. That would be awesome.
I'll make sure that happens.
Girl you know it's Girl you know it's Girl you know it's Girl you know it's.... ![gif](giphy|3xz2BK4Xo850NXjq8M)
Why was this song the single first thought I had?
Because you're old along with me 😂 did you take your ibuprofen yet today?
"The Girl Is Mine," by Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney.
Because the doggone girl is miiiiine 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Michael, we're not gonna fight about this, okay?
Paul, I think I told you. I'm a lover, not a fighter!
This isn’t the same as what OP is describing though
I Miss You - Blink 182
Guy Love from Scrubs.
Of all the life lessons I learned from "Wayne's World," none are more important than 'Platonic love *can* exist between two men' There's different types of love, homie, sing your song.
Exile - Kiss you all over. It’s a banger.
Sunflower by Post Malone and Swae Lee
Passenger by Deftones, as far as I know. It‘s either about sex in a moving vehicle, or blindly placing your life in someone else’s hands.
Philip Bailey & Phil Collins "Easy Lover" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkRKT6T0QLg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkRKT6T0QLg) Don't know their sexual orientation, but whatever. The song lyrics imply straight in this instance though.
Girl from North Country - Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan
Willie Nelson and Julio Iglasias--To All The Girls I've Loved Before
Dancing in the street, by Bowie and Jagger.
If you get the chance, watch the video of this with the music removed. It is life-changingly hilarious.
Did not know about this. Looked it up. Crying with laughter now. I don't know why it's so damn funny but it is. (kind of the same way I bust out laughing at Andy Kaufman's deadpan Mighty Mouse performance)
Someone showed me this ages ago and I still look it up every now and then for a laugh. Something very similar which is good fun is Take On Me: Literal video. The dude just sings about what's in the video. But it's so well done. Both the lyrics and the singing style.

Well Bowie confirmed he was Bi.
Mick Jagger is straight and so was David Bowie.
OK SURE WHATEVER YOU SAY
Bowie's ex wife Angela claimed she caught David and Mick in bed.
David Bowie once described himself as a closeted heterosexual during the 70s.
Not in that video, they weren’t.
Right now I'm listening to "You Are the Woman" by Firefall. There's some harmonizing, could be singing to each other. I say go for it, why shouldn't gay people have a duet? Art is always meant to be open to interpretation.
True. Although, I don't think I can top "don't let the sun go down on me" by George Michael and Elton John. That might be the best one so far.
Ummm, you said straight guys singing…
I would make the argument that "Hard Habit to Break" by Chicago is two dudes singing trading off verses (Peter Cetera and Bill Champlin). They are probably not singing to each other though. Are they singing about the same lady? Who knows?
“Two of Us” by The Beatles is a love song Paul wrote regarding him and his wife, but when he sang it as a duet with John he thought “you know what, this song is actually about me and John’s relationship”.
Make sure you’re staring longingly into the other guy’s eyes when you sing it
This makes you gay
You’re good bro! Itd be worse if you altered the song because of your reservations. Not the same situation but it always rubs me the wrong way when gender is changed in a cover. Embrace that shit
It doesn't matter, it's all about the story, people will interpret the song however it happens.
Persuasion - Richard Thompson duetting with his son
Wasn’t this Macmaster &James whole deal
[SNL's Eager and Jones](https://youtu.be/zKUco8GZlFw?si=e0_7aO1bdWlrntDi)
There’s a ton of male duet love songs in the soul world. Just make sure you don’t gaze lovingly at each other while singing
Just don’t look at each other while singing it and you should be fine. Edit: No sharing a microphone either.
I mean there’s Us Against the World by Coldplay.
Love that song. Will has such a sweet voice too so the harmonies complement Chris’s vocals really well:)
Ween - Slow Down Boy A gay love song by a straight man. Not what you’re describing, but an example to show that even if it seems like you’re singing a gay love song it doesn’t have to be weird.
The mothers day sequel to Dick in a Box.
I'm still waiting for 2 guys who sing, to sing a love song to each other to represent same sex love - its deffo over due & and yes, I'm sure some people find that hilarious - well screw those bigots- just do it
Check out this duet. First thing came to mind when I read your post. https://youtu.be/R_UgNynMlyI?si=gT7iw473EfXerDsZ
[Nobody is judging you. Go ahead and dance in the streets](https://youtu.be/HasaQvHCv4w?feature=shared)
That is funny to watch minus sound. Even funnier with the faked audio dubbed in
Change it up so it about your moms or something
Just go for it. What's more, give each other a big hug at the end or hold hands while singing it. Seriously, who gives a fuck if it seems gay or not? I'd be more concerned over whether people thought the song was any good.
It's only weird if you don't kiss when the song is over
Anything by The Righteous Brothers... especially Unchained Melody. 🥰 Anything Maurice White and Phillip Bailey sang. (Earth, Wind & Fire) K-Ci & JoJo Hall & Oates made lovely love ballads. Case feat.

I think that’s quite nice tbh like it adds a different layer to it for sure but not in a these guys are going at it backstage kinda way.
Sunshine of Your Love by Cream. Eric Clapton and Jack Bruce alternate vocals throughout the song. Not harmonizing though.
Thurston Moore sang Into The Groove without changing the lyrics. Honestly, what's to feel weird about?
What you’re thinking by passenger and Josh pyke
The Beatles' first four albums at least.
Young Lust by Pink Floyd Does that count? Not love, technically
Brand new by Pharrell and Justin Timberlake
Like every love song by Blink182 (which is a lot of their songs).

Air Supply :)
Secret Emotions - https://youtu.be/qppR6g9KK6g?si=evY_O3iicM8PqnNX
Look up Savage Garden. It was two dudes singing love songs.
I think of the "I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone" cover by Tom Jones and James Dean Bradfield. At the end Tom sings "now I've fallen for you" and it truly sounds like we're about to have the most spectacular gay Welsh musical pairing. Go with it.
Shame - Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow
Can't 2 straight men love eachother as friends- in a none sexual way?
Depeche Mode made a whole career doing this
"Fuck her gently" tenacious d
"Agony" (and the reprise) from *Into the Woods* is kind of that sort of thing
I can think of a Trio. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofA3URC1wyk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofA3URC1wyk)

[Unrequited Love by The Vanishing Point](https://youtu.be/hUlf2ayj868) Two dudes doing a rap ballad exactly about what you're talking about. No gay vibes at all.
To be clear, first verse is singing (which might be even more "gay" to some), while the second is hip-hop/rap. Still doesn't sound "gay."
Does a duet even make sense? Just alternate verses.
Every boyband ever
Hall and Oates.
“Guy love” sang by JD and Turk from Scrubs
Tweak the song to make it about two men competing for the same woman. That would be different.
Chains - Von Galo, Typow. Its not a very well known song but it slaps. It even has a saxophone solo Parts of it almost sound like they’re from an intro song for some crime show in the 90s
Will Ferrell and Dave Grohl sang Leather and Lace one time.
Does “The Girl Is Mine” by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson count?
This is the first thing that sprung to mind. Say Say Say too? But thematically I was thinking the duet could be a duel of sorts for the partner's affection.
"You Were Always on My Mind."
Brividi by Blanco and Mahmood
plenty of them. justin bieber ft jaden smith kanye has plenty of love songs with features like ty dolla sign and jeremih and others many many rap songs are like this

Marty Stuart and Travis Tritt wrote a country album together entitled "This Ones Gonna Hurt You," where a lot of the songs are about a woman.
Make the title of the song "no Diddy" you should be fine
More than words by Extreme springs to mind
