    Clue needed?

    Same person sang one of the songs and wrote or co-wrote the other.

    Andy Kim - Rock Me Gently is one of my fave 70s songs. Didn't know he co-wrote Sugar Sugar.

    Correct.

    That kind of surprised me too. I think I heard it on one of the AT40 countdowns years ago.

    I'm sure Billy would have know this one, because Andy Kim is from Canada. I always thought he looked like he was from Hawaii maybe.

    The Loco-Motion
    Up on the Roof
    I'm into Something Good
    Don't Bring Me Down
    Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow
    Pleasant Valley Sunday

    All these have something in common... Surprising to me.

    Yep. You got it @snookeroo. Carole King co-wrote all of these with her then-husband Gerry Goffin. You're up!

    Ok, this one is repetitively rich ( that's your clue)

    The 0'Jays + Abba + Pink Floyd + The Beatles + Bay City Rollers =

    Carol King is pretty incredible. I have a DVD with her and James Taylor performing at The Troubador. Good music and Taylor is pretty comical. He pokes fun at himself and his past ways.

    For The Love of Money + Money Money Money + Money + Money (That's What I Want) + Money Honey = money?

    Had to grope for something from The O'Jays.

    That's a lot of money. I should have added some Eddie Money.

    You're up.

    This artist was a one hit wonder, but it's a good tune.

    It is a Woodie. Now what good luck superstition is associated with wood? Or maybe to ward off bad luck.

    Knock on Wood? Disco song by Amii Stewart.

    Correct! Too obscure?

    snookeroo Posts: 2,008 Member
    Oh, sorry. I thought you were looking for an artist with the last name Woodie. I misunderstood.
