    I keep forgetting that not everyone thinks like I do
    (they probably don't hear voices in their own heads either....yes they do..no, they probably don't...i think they do..shut up :smile: :neutral: )

    okay..hint time @Mustang_Susie , you're own the right note, 'specally if you think of what color the water would be after a spill...

    420: I would expect AK, CA, CO,DC, ME, MA,NV,OR,WA residents to have a recreational awareness of this number (but if not..that's what Google is for, right?)

    Definition:
    Mashup: MA` sh * up: (n)
    The would-be song if two artists mashed their titles together
    Example:
    Artist: George Gerswin and Elvis =
    Song: I can't give you anything but LOVE Me tender

    1. Pink Floyd
    2. The Pixies
    3. R.E.M.

    I'm 0 for 3 on the current problem. I have none of any of the above in my collection. Three strikes and I'm out on this one.

    Ok, it looks like it’s time for clues:

    Song 1 - What you’d write on a postcard to a loved one while vacationing.

    Song 3 - Neil Armstrong or Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin

    Hope this helps! And remember, researching is not considered cheating...

    Yeah, I like all these and I heard it was the same singer, but I don't know the name

    Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) - Edison Lighthouse
    My Baby Loves Lovin' - White Plains
    United We Stand - Brotherhood of Man (I thought that was Friends of Distinction)

    Sorry, I've been distracted by work.

    I just heard lots of good songs watching an older movie called "Dick". It's a comedy spoof about Watergate. You'll like all the period clothes, slang, TV, and music.

    This will be like my last one. Sort of a word association thing. I'll give a clue to the group and then you give the song.
