I know that Diana and Marvin never performed live together any of the songs they recorded for their album, but did either of them ever perform any of the songs live, alone or with someone else? I know that Diana and Larry Hagman duet "live" on "You Are Everything" for Diana's tv special in 1981, but aside from that, did she ever do anything else? Did Marvin?
Marvin did “Love Twins” in the “classic duets” portion of his live act over the years with Florence Lyles and others.
Diana performed MY MISTAKE with G.C. Cameron during her 1974 Universal Ampitheater engagement.
In one of her 90s fan club newsletters, there was a fan review of one of her Vegas engagements, I believe. He wrote that a few patrons kept yelling out "Darling, darling, darling, darling...," hoping that Diana would sing INCLUDE ME IN YOUR LIFE. I think she said something like "They don't know that one."
I wonder if he did it during the Palladium show but it didn't make the album? I don't remember it on the album, anyway. Thanks Sans.Quote:

Okay Reese, I'll do some investigating.Quote:

As said, Marvin did "Love Twins" during his 1983 Sexual Healing tour. He always ended it saying "that was my favorite duet with Diana Ross" or something to that effect.
I wonder if Love Twins was recorded "together" in the studio hence being Marvin's favourite? The song definitely has a good vibe and banter between the two of them.
On reflection, what a great 45 we had in the UK with You Are Everything b/w Include Me In Your Life. Wonderful songs and performances.
Would love to hear Love Twins and My Mistake live
^^ I think it was Marvin's favorite because Diana says "I love you too, Marvin".
He even said on Divided Soul, "see? she loves me." LOL
