A couplet refers to two individual pieces which fit together so beautifully that they become one unit. While either piece can stand on its own merit, they are significantly diminished by the absence of the other. And so, it is with the following musical couplets:
- Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding – Elton John
- We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions – Queen
- Foreplay/Longtime – Boston
- Nights in White Satin/Late Lament – Moody Blues
- Eruption/You Really Got Me – Van Halen
- Falling in and Out of Love/Amie – Pure Prairie League
- Venus & Mars/Rock Show – Paul McCartney & Wings
- Suite: Clouds, Rain – David Gates
- No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature – The Guess Who
- Sirius/Eye in the Sky – Alan Parsons Project
