    thanks @BillyC96 , that hint was what I needed
    (although when you first offered slang, I was taking 'Joint' in a whole nuther direction:
    i.e., Dick Twins?)

    and thanks @Mustang_Susie , that made me laugh and sing :)

    Doobie Brothers / China Grove

    Um... sure... :D
    I kept thinking of jail or prison for "joint" and then "Stir Crazy" comes to mind...

    I agree. I think two of the songs are In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel and In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins. I'm still working on the third song.

    Song: Bought for protection + "nearly" off + the absence of prevarication
    Artist: French for "fast fashion"

    Vous ne parle francais?

    English artist clue:
    Prefix indicating "down" + letter that is also a vegetable + fifth letter + vitamin present in citrus fruits + letter not heard in "hour" + fifth letter again= First word in group name)
    A special way to consume pie MINUS Islamic name for God (spelling liberty taken) = Second word in group name

    I don't know their stuff. I did a lot of digging to find what might be the right answer. Let's see if anyone else can get this without all the digging. :)

    Okay, stealing RunTimer's idea here and I hope it makes sense and you can read it :#
    (Edit: it's easier to enlarge/see on a desktop site, sorry it's so small on phone screens :( )
    I will accept any one of the three artists and their corresponding song titles.
