Hidden guest cameos

For some reason I’ve always found it fascinating hearing someone make an uncredited guest appearance on someone else’s song.

Here are some I know of:

We Love You - Rolling Stones: Lennon and McCartney backing vocals

Fade in-out - Oasis: Johnny Depp slide guitar

Young Americans - David Bowie: Luther Vandros backing vocals

Somebody’s watching me - Rockwell: Michael Jackson backing vocals

Beat it - Michael Jackson: Eddie Van Halen guitar solo

Guitar gently weeps - The Beatles: Eric Clapton on lead guitar

You’re so vain - Carly Simon: Mick Jagger backing vocals

There must be an angel - Eurythmics: Stevie Wonder harmonica

Vegetables - Beach Boys: McCartney chomping on vegetables



Any others?
