    could I be anymore obscure... :wink:

    Okay solve for Artist(s) / Song(s) then (3)piece together what the tunes have in common*

    1. Alice's doorway / Type 4 (alphabetically)
    2. Esteban Peel-ey / Ring Give-y
    3. ?

    *Hint: get this right and the next round is on me!

    3. ....

    Boy that first one took longer than I'd like to think.

    Or is that correct.

    For #2 I was thinking maybe the song could be "Call Me" by Blondie, but I'm not sure the band fits. HELP?

    @deckerp,
    you're getting there..I made one alteration (slipping the Proper song title, in lieu of your parenthetical submission)
    1. Looking Glass / Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)
    (get it...Brand A, Brand D)

    i did promise obscurity.. OK HINT-city for # 2:
    • Anglicization of Esteban
    • Synonym for Peel (and add a 'Y' to the end)
    • Alphabetic shape of a ring
    • Alternate way of saying 'Give' (a portion, and add a 'Y' to the end)

    Well, you do t habe yo tell me twice :D

    "Twice"...And speaking of 2s

    2way mash-up (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 2 artists (in order) and you have to provide the mixed-up songs.
    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. Denice Williams
    2. The Andrew Sisters
