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

    Here's your lyrics only clue, to this 3 Song Mashup
    1. Since my baby left me,..
    2. ..on a dark desert highway,
    3. ...all the leaves are brown and the sky is gray.


    Solve for Titles and Artist(s)

    According to MFP protocol -
    "In the event if a tie, the tiebreaker goes to the original poster."

    So OP, I officially concede...

    Ok, here's a thematic equation. I will provide 3 artists whose songs are thematically related. Your job is to provide the names of each song.
    Good luck and may the best MFPer win. And as always, for the benefit of any children who may be watching -
    NO WAGERING...

    Roy Orbison
    Janis Joplin
    Buck Owens

    Different spelling here but it's a homonym.

    John + Sly or Cunning intelligence / Playboy - [band/song]

    John doesn't go by his name but by his first initial. Another song his band does is something like a "romance that smells". Hopefully that helps.
