Six 80’s Songs That You Didn’t Know Had Famous Singers On Backing Vocals

As we rock into another Feel Good 80s Weekend on 92.7 WOBM, there are a couple of songs that you'll hear over the next two and a half days that were big hits in their own right but you might not have realized have superstars that were singing backing vocals.

Of course, the 80s had some superstar collaborations, from David Bowie joining Freddie Mercury on Queen's "Under Pressure" to Aretha Franklin and George Michael's "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)", and of course 1985's "We Are The World" that featured, well, just about everybody.

But, there were also plenty of big hits that featured familiar voices that weren't specifically credited publicly.

These definitely fall into the category of "once you listen for them, you'll recognize them forever":

Keep listening to 92.7 WOBM's Feel Good 80s Weekend all weekend long and see if you can pick out any more superstar guest vocalists on your 80s favorites!
