    I graduated high school in 1981. How is it I've never heard this song before?

    You didn't go to my all girls Catholic high school? Or RunT's garage parties? What were you doing in your free time?? ;)


    Okay, next clue that may cater a bit more to you Pat:

    Hustle/ Sample of Tchaikovsky's Overture

    is this Artist / Song or the other way around

    (yeah..I'm drawing blanks either way) :/

    I did go to a Catholic school, but we had girls too.....besides the nuns.

    My first thought on the new problem is Walter Murphy / A Fifth of Beethoven. Wrong composer though.

    The Hustle always makes me think of Ponch and John on Chips.

    :D

    Never thought of the nuns as girls. They were just... nuns.

    Don't overthink the artist, just start thinking of synonyms and you should get it.
    The song may be a bit more difficult.
    Good luck!

    Correct
    20 minute song is from the same-titled 1976 album

    The band name had finally dawned on me, but I'm not familiar with their stuff. With the last explicit clue I did the research to answer.
    Rush -- 2112

    A good song from this band, but not my favorite from them. On the countdown they said it was their only number one. Band members also did some work with Don Henley on another song in the countdown as well as Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson on yet another song in the top ten!

    A continent + famous movie dog = [song/band]

    Here's one from the Top Ten at Noon again. Maybe a little obscure, but I'm sure someone will come up with it.

    HA! No he didn't.

    More clues?

    This General Hospital actor loves to golf and is very good. He plays on the Celebrity Tour.

    The quote was when he was listing what he needed.

    Ummmm. My bad. I read your spoiler, assuming your answer was under there, and obviously glossed over your correct answer.

    Yes.
