    My first thought was "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", but Pat Benatar doesn't fit the artist.

    I'm probably wrong...."Tubthumping" (also known colloquially as "I Get Knocked Down") is a song released by British rock band Chumbawamba

    1.Simon & Garfunkel
    2.Neil Diamond
    3.Elvis
    4.The Ventures

    Took quite a bit of research and still may not be correct.

    1. Simon & Garfunkel - The 59th Street Bridge Song
    2. Neil Diamond - Song Sung Blue
    3. Elvis - Blue Hawaii
    4. The Ventures - Hawaii Five-O

    Common song theme. The Billy Joel song may not have been a hit, but a great album track.

    1. .38 Special -
    2. Earth, Wind, & Fire -
    3. Billy Joel -
    4. Aldo Nova -

    1. .38 Special - FANTASY Girl
    2. Earth, Wind, & Fire - FANTASY
    3. Billy Joel - Sometimes A FANTASY
    4. Aldo Nova - FANTASY

    (I agree. I like the Billy Joel song)

    Sticking with the Common Song theme.

    1. Four Seasons -
    2. Bruce Springsteen -
    3. Sammy Davis, Jr -
    4. The Cars -

    Sammy Davis had one huge pop hit, so I'm guessing that is correct and working from there.

    1. Four Seasons -
    2. Bruce Springsteen -
    3. Sammy Davis, Jr - The Candy Man
    4. The Cars - Candy-O (album?)

    Yup. Candy is the theme. The Cars had an album as well as a song called Candy-O. You're just missing the Springsteen song. If you give up, that's okay. You go. 3 out of 4 ain't bad.

    Took me a minute.

    The Babys / Isn't It Time

    I saw The Babys open for Journey with my ex-girlfriend in about 1979.
