I mentioned yesterday that in addition to being one of the most wanted guest vocalists, Michael McDonald was also an in-demand songwriter.  In addition to his own solo work, he collaborated with some of his most popular contemporaries, most notably Kenny Loggins

One of his best known songs was written with Carly Simon.  Though he originally recorded it with the Doobie Brothers, ”You Belong To Me” later became a hit for Simon herself (McDonald, unsurprisingly, pitched in on backup vocals).

Here’s the original Doobie version.  You can find Simon’s rendition here.
