    Again I am stealing a page from @RunTimer (I apologize for the unoriginality but I just thought of it moments ago)

    3-way MASHUP time!

    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

    Dan Fogelberg + Paul McCartney + Bryan Adams

    Yes, yes and close enough. The last title is actually Run To You...
    You're up!

    Obviously I didn't research that one since I got that song name slightly wrong.

    Food available in Traditional and Boneless / 800 - 53 = [band/song]

    That may sort of fit but not what I was looking for. I guarantee you all know this song. Your math didn't quite fit either. You had some high order truncation.

    That was my first thought, but I don't think Miller is referred to as a cut of meat?

    The food would be a piece of poultry. That should help, but not with the palm to the forehead that will likely follow.

    Or the band could be Tim Daly, Steven Weber, and Crystal Bernard.

    Correct.

    I'm not much for wings myself, boneless or otherwise. I'm more of a breast man. More meat and less work.
