Chicago, “90 Degrees and Freezing” from ‘Chicago XXX’ (2006): Saturdays in the Park
This checks all of Chicago’s boxes, including prominent horns and alternating lead vocals. Where “90 Degrees and Freezing” fails is in the production.
Chicago, “Long Lost Friend” from ‘Chicago XXX’ (2006): Saturdays in the Park

Chicago, “Back to You” from ‘Chicago XXVI’ (1999): Saturdays in the Park
