YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

My worlds are colliding.

Two of my "happy bands" -- you know, the acts whose music can instantly improve your mood -- have come together for a sure-to-be-epic jam session that won't see the light of day for almost a month (I can't wait that long!). Chromeo will be the next guest on "Live From Daryl's House," an online music show masterminded by Hall & Oates frontman Daryl Hall.

Their set included the Hall & Oates songs "Family Man" and "Adult Education" and a pair of Chromeo songs: "Tenderoni" and "Waiting 4 U." The episode will premiere online August 15 at 8 p.m. ET. "We'll be pinching ourselves for years to come," Chromeo guitarist/singer Dave 1 said of the experience. "Given that he pretty much wrote half our songs, it was about time we met Daryl Hall in real life."

In May, I went to the first show of Hall & Oates' two-night stand at the Troubadour, where they got their start more than 35 years before, and in June, I caught a Chromeo DJ set at Teddy's nightclub in Hollywood's Roosevelt Hotel. After getting a taste of both of their live acts, it should be interesting to see the laid-back rocker mix it up with the hyperactive electro-funk duo.

This pairing begs the question: Which of your favorite acts -- who might seem like a strange fit on paper -- would you like to see join forces? (And don't say Chris Cornell and Timbaland -- that already happened.)
