About the Song
"Islands in the Stream" is a 1983 hit country and pop single, written by the Bee Gees and sung by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. It was the first single from Rogers' album Eyes That See in the Dark and the second pop number-one for both Rogers and Parton (Rogers having been there with 1980's "Lady" and Parton with 1981's "9 to 5"). They went on to record a Christmas album together, and had an additional hit with their 1985 duet "Real Love". The Gibbs originally wrote the song for Diana Ross in an R&B style, only later to change it for the Kenny Rogers album. The title came from an Ernest Hemingway novel, which was published in 1970.
